+grimpil Posted April 7, 2019 Posted April 7, 2019 Grr! Trying to log todays finds & either I sit watching things spin round from 5 minutes then my log does not appear. Try again & it suddenly appears twice on the same cache. Now it refuses to delete the duplicate! Had exactly the same problem last weekend. Don't have time to sit & watch paint dry! Is it the site or is it my PC on a go-slow mission? Quote
+shadowcelt Posted April 7, 2019 Posted April 7, 2019 (edited) Yes the website is very very slow on my side too it's like being on old dial up waiting for page to load up. I have checked my broadband speed all ok at this side must be the servers or the web provider they use hope they sort it out soon.. Edited April 7, 2019 by shadowcelt Quote
+speakers-corner Posted April 7, 2019 Posted April 7, 2019 Please feed the hamsters, the site is very, verryyy slow again. This happened last Sunday and it is Happening again!!!!!! Quote
+Viajero Perdido Posted April 7, 2019 Posted April 7, 2019 Is this why I can't edit attributes for a listing? The cluster of attribute icons only shows up maybe one time out of four or five attempts. And I did manage to enter them initially, but poof, they're gone. (Firefox Quantum 65.0 64-bit on Linux, NoScript and Privacy Badger disabled.) Is this something dynamically loaded after the page loads, but takes too long so it just gives up? Does heavy server load on sunny spring weekends come as a surprise? Quote
+VelkyBobik Posted April 7, 2019 Posted April 7, 2019 Same here, need to submit any log multiple times until it finally goes through. Now I've been waiting for couple of minutes and the page with drafts is still loading. Shame this keeps happening nearly every weekend. Quote
+Calcows Posted April 7, 2019 Posted April 7, 2019 April 7, Slow response again, can not post updates. Time is 12pm pst Quote
Sherlocked221B Posted April 7, 2019 Posted April 7, 2019 Glad it's not just me...We placed a new geocache today and I have been trying for HOURS to get it on the website. Keeps redirecting me back to the home page when I get part way through, doing nothing or crashing ? Quote
+Pontiac_CZ Posted April 7, 2019 Posted April 7, 2019 " Something went wrong. Please try again. " after I submitted my log. I love non-specific errors.... Quote
+grimpil Posted April 7, 2019 Posted April 7, 2019 So I am not alone. Took me an hour to post 3 logs. Only 17 to go! At least I have finally deleted 2 duplicates. Sigh! Quote
+gadget63 Posted April 7, 2019 Posted April 7, 2019 Having the same problem here. Takes a long time to post a find. Sometimes it times out and I have to Back out of the site and back in, Just to log another cache. Other parts of the GC site seems to be responding well. 3:25 est Quote
+Be-con Posted April 7, 2019 Posted April 7, 2019 Trying to input some new caches and system keeps throwing me out and have to start over again. Taking to much time waiting for pages to load. Quote
+cerberus1 Posted April 7, 2019 Posted April 7, 2019 We haven't had this "everything's slow and I'm timing out" stuff on weekends for a long time. Simple stuff like just logging in too. Quote
+Damned Rodan Posted April 7, 2019 Posted April 7, 2019 (edited) Still having issues. When I posted my last log, got the "something went wrong" error message, now my profile count (10,982) shows correctly, but on the dashboard page and in the top stat bar, it's missing one. Edited April 7, 2019 by Damned Rodan Adding info to error. Quote
+CaracalShan Posted April 7, 2019 Posted April 7, 2019 Same here, it takes ages to log a cache. I just logged some DNF's, and got an error at the bottom of the page, so I tried again, and again, ... But when I checked the cache-page after a few attempts, the DNF was logged multiple times. The past few weeks, logging on a Sunday-evening doesn't seem to work unfortunately... You can't expect creative logs on creative caches when people get frustrated by a non-working (or very slow) website... I hope something is done about these website-problems soon! Quote
+funkymunkyzone Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 Still not working. This is making it very difficult to cache with my phone (on vacation). Any indication GS is working on resolving it? Quote
+funkymunkyzone Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 And then it got worse... Error 500 page now Quote
+Cissy PSP Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 Apparently, I am not alone. I placed two caches today and I can't get past putting the coords in.. Website just sits there.. Will try later I guess. ?♀️ Quote

+gjhimages Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 04/07/2019 Wherigo site has been down for 2 hours. Any answers on why? Unable to download Wherigo on computer or website. It states the following" Service Unavailable HTTP Error 503. The service is unavailable. Quote
+lee737 Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 I'm not getting any notifications here, including that one of our caches had been published..... Quote
+Dr.MORO Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 I just posted a Found log for a 50+ Fav point geocache, but no adding of 50 points to my leaderboard point total. Weird... Quote

Weird... Maybe because I'm also NOT getting any notifications? The geocache IS listed as Found by me today, and I have it on my Watchlist, but not message of my logging a Find. Perhaps communication within the Geocaching system not functioning fully. Quote

+Cissy PSP Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 Thank you, Keystone. At least we know HQ is aware. I set out two new caches today. Can’t finish filling out the requirements without being looped back to beginning. Even the app on my phone is squirly. Quote
+thebruce0 Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 Likewise, I have a listing prepped to go, but can't do the final step to send it to the reviewer. Waiting patiently... Quote
+funkymunkyzone Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 (edited) I'd love to wait patiently but unfortunately my flight home from Hawaii is not going to wait... I hope they fix this soon - I'm just getting 500 errors trying to get the homepage or search pages... Edited April 8, 2019 by funkymunkyzone Quote

I haven't received a notification email of a new cache published in my area today (GC847RH), I only heard about it in the local FB group. I wonder if there's any others I missed. Quote
+thebruce0 Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 I've seen a few more published overnight, but I'm guessing they were already in the queue. Still can't send my unpublished listing to review. Quote
+DerDiedler Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 Having trouble doing stuff on the webpage. Every few cklicks I get this: 1 Quote

+cerberus1 Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 (edited) Yeah, me too... Can't even hit my own profile now. Didn't do it just minutes ago, so must be a sporadic thing. Can get onto the page, but click on my own finds or anything brings up the error. Yep. Clicked on my name to take me to profile and came right up. Sporadic. Edited April 11, 2019 by cerberus1 Quote
+Dr.MORO Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 Same server error 500, trying to view a geocache webpage. Oddly, I can still view my mapped Pocket Queries just fine. Quote
Keystone Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 The sporadic server errors began last night (Seattle time), and HQ's engineers are aware of the issue. 2 1 Quote
