ArtMan Posted August 5, 2002 Posted August 5, 2002 Over the last couple of days I've been getting repeated failures in attempts to access the benchmark db. Typical error message below. Anyone else having problems of this nature? Is a solution in sight? Error Type: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80040E31) [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Timeout expired /mark/nearest.asp, line 231 Browser Type: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0; T312461) Page: GET /mark/nearest.asp Quote
+Black Dog Trackers Posted August 5, 2002 Posted August 5, 2002 During the past 3 days, I get "The page cannot be displayed" when I try to search for nearby benchmark locations about 17 times out of 20. Once in a while I get the list, but not very often. When I do get the page with list of benchmarks to show, I make sure to right-click on benchmarks so that I can open a new browser page instead of having to use the 'back' button to go back to the list.

ArtMan Posted August 6, 2002 Author Posted August 6, 2002 I'm glad it's not just my imagination again! I suspect the problem may be on the NGS side since their own system is sometimes very slow. Possibly the requests from geocaching.com are timing out? Quote
iryshe Posted August 6, 2002 Posted August 6, 2002 We've been experiencing huge traffic surges over the last few days. The database is mostly being hammered due to that reason. Also adding the additional "found date" has been causing additional database overhead. Jeremy Jeremy Irish Groundspeak - The Language of Location Quote
iryshe Posted August 6, 2002 Posted August 6, 2002 I did some cleanup and optimized the database. It should be much faster now. Jeremy Jeremy Irish Groundspeak - The Language of Location Quote
