+DyverDown Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Anyone else getting this when you try to LOG a Geocache ? DyverDown Quote Link to comment
+Touchstone Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 I did for a short period of time, but I'm back in now. Quote Link to comment
+Mike Fitz Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 (edited) Mine is hanging when trying to log caches, "Service Unavailable" errors, error 500, or an error that there's no comment when there is in the cache log. Frustrating. Edited March 25, 2018 by Mike Fitz Quote Link to comment
+van der Decken Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 (edited) The site does seem to be a bit sluggish loading pages in general but it is the weekend and the Planetary Pursuit promotion is on. I wouldn't be surprised if the traffic is higher than usual and that's causing some oddities. Edited March 25, 2018 by van der Decken 1 Quote Link to comment
Frau Potter Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Geocaching.com is experiencing a heavy load this morning. We are seeing some random outages as a result. Search wait times are increased and users may experience delays in receiving souvenirs and favorite points. The engineers are looking into it. Thanks for your patience. 2 Quote Link to comment

+31BMSG Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Back in the early days of the WWW and 14400 baud rate it was fairly common for sites to have counters to track the number of "hits" on their site, it would be interesting to see the number of hits GC.com has had over the last two days. 2 Quote Link to comment
+hzoi Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 (edited) I'm still experiencing some serious latency. It's almost a throwback to ten years ago, when Sunday was traditionally the slow day on the site and pocket queries took forever to generate. Perhaps Planetary Pursuit has upped the traffic.

+G.4ce Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 I got the error message on the first two I logged but it still logged them. Now can not even get to the Log page. Quote Link to comment
+Benchmark Blasterz Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 (edited) I just earned my 527th point for Planetary Pursuit, but I was not awarded either the Pluto or Meta souvenir. Anyone else seeing this? Edited March 25, 2018 by Benchmark Blasterz Quote Link to comment

+Mike Fitz Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 It's hit or miss for me trying to log caches, mostly miss. "Service Unavailable" still popping up more often than not trying to open or log a cache. I'm sure the souvenirs are lagging behind as well. Quote Link to comment

Since it's called "Official Space Explorer" (no Planetary Pursuit) it doesn't appear in with the rest of the Planetary Pursuit souvenirs. It's six souvenirs up from "Earth". Quote Link to comment
+sloth96 Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Since some time on friday I have been seeing odd behaviour both through the API and on the website. Quote Link to comment

+sloth96 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 project-gc is now reporting slower than normal updates. Not sure when it started but they appear to have been impacted by this degradation as well. project-gc is starting to be more telling than the geocaching status page. It seems to be more sensitive.

The status page isn't really a status page. All it can tell you is whether the site is up or down. It can't tell you about whether the site is performing normally or not, or the status of the many functions of the website (e.g. PQs, souvenirs, messaging, API, etc.). Quote Link to comment
+Mineral2 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 whole site is currently down. My guess is a server got rebooted to deal with the earlier issues. Quote Link to comment
+Mineral2 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 seems to be running fine again (for now). Quote Link to comment

+Mineral2 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 it was up just long enough for me to log my last cache. Quote Link to comment
