500 - Internal server error. when looking up caches

[+sejtam]

Right now whatever cache I am clicking on, yields the following:

 

500 - Internal server error.

There is a problem with the resource you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed.

 

 

Your Operating System: Mac 10.5.8 Intel

Your Browser with Version number: Firefox 3.5.8

 

Cache GC code if the error occurred there

 

Don't know, I am clicking oteh URLs from my watchlist, bookmarks etc:

 

Any URL's that you feel would help.

etc etc

[+small oaks]

Same here. I can't look any of my caches or others either..

[+tomtwogates]

ditto here in South Africa

[+Die Schatzjäger]

Germany too !

 

Can't see any caches...

[+_canadianbacon_]

I also can only see some landing pages, no TB pages, cache pages or searches.

 

More...

 

Tried a proxy server, and site worked fine. So I'm guess that geocaching is using a caching service? (like akamai) and maybe its not propagating correctly?

Nate did mention they did some network reconfig today on the site. Perhaps this is the problem?

Possibly, though a dedicated 'under maintenance' page/error page whatever would be nice in such cases

[+Die Schatzjäger]

It seems that not everyone hat this failure.

 

Other ones (also from germany with no proxy) said that everything works fine...

Posted today at 10.16am on the Ozzie forums.

 

I can see the main page and my profile page but links to individual cache pages result in 500 - Internal Server Error

[+Saff]

I also have this issue in the UK.

[+Die Schatzjäger]

After the short downtime of gc.com it works fine !

 

Thank you !

I had it also in Germany, but now it is working.

Tried looking at another players profile and got this one.

 

 

 

Server Error

 

404 - File or directory not found.

 

The resource you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.

I can't contact any geocacher about the form. Recieve the 500 internal server error, when trying to mail them.

funny about it the form says I have 4 ip addresses. could this be the problem?

 

2 times my internal lan ip adress, one time the local host adress and one time the external public ip address.

when I log into my company vpn I can send e-mails to users and the form shows only one ip adress.

What the f***?

why do I have 4 ip adresses in normal behaviour

The 500 error is gone and now, at least from my current location, none of the images- gallery shots, avatars on this forum, are loading...?

 

My two caches that have images hosted on my own domain I can see as I can also see the ads and the large and small banner pics on the front page- until I click on them then nothing.

 

EDIT: okay they are loading but like three minutes after the page finishes. Seems to only the affecting .jpg images. All the .gif icons and such are poping up just fine.

I have been getting the 500 error when trying to upload a 75x75 avatar jpg image. When I converted it to a tiff I was able to upload.
