+Team DEMP Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Site is serving up 404 DNF pages for caches that I was just viewing and refreshed. Quote Link to comment
+Team DEMP Posted January 6, 2019 Author Share Posted January 6, 2019 Looks like it is specific to the URL format. https://www.geocaching.com/geocache/GC6JJ9G works while https://www.geocaching.com/geocache/GC6JJ9G_another-bum-knee returns the 404. Both page URLs were served up by clicking a link on the site. Quote Link to comment
+Team DEMP Posted January 6, 2019 Author Share Posted January 6, 2019 Whatever was broken was reverted or addressed and both URL formats are working again. Quote Link to comment

+BuckyBoyEcht Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 still getting occasional 404's here (for example on https://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?wp=GC6PPDG), signing out and signing in seemed to work for caches that I got 404's on earlier on like https://www.geocaching.com/geocache/GC7ZA7R_ich-leg-mich-quer cheers from Holland, Ton (BBE) Quote Link to comment
+noncentric Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 (edited) I'm running into a lot of 404 errors while submitting Drafts logs. It is intermittent. When I submit a log via Drafts, on the website, then it will go to a 404 page. But then if I go to that cache page, then it shows that my log did go through and the find shows up in my list of founds in my Profile. Also getting 404, sometimes, after a successful Draft log submission - when I click on the "Back to Drafts" link in the blue banner that runs across the top of the cache page. I have opted out of the new Drafts page, if that makes a difference. ETA: When I opt-in to the new Drafts page, then I get intermittent 500 errors and also 404 errors when clicking on "Back to Drafts". So sounds like it's not just a 'new' vs 'old' Drafts page issue. Hope last night's power outages around the Seattle area didn't dislodge a hamster from its wheel. Edited January 6, 2019 by noncentric eta Quote Link to comment
Frau Potter Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 I have notified the engineering team and they are now looking into it. I ran into trouble submitting my CITO event for publication. So I feel your pain. Quote Link to comment
Frau Potter Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 The team says they found a few errant hamsters that were not tending to their assigned wheels. Their New Year’s booze has now been removed and all should be working again. 2 Quote Link to comment

I have opted out of the new Drafts page, if that makes a difference. This happened to me this afternoon also. I had just logged a Write Note from a drack to Drafts to log the one cache we did find today, and got a 404. I was able to go back to my Dashboard, pull up the Draft, and log the find. I figured it might be all the rain we are having today - that seems to play games with our internet connection now and then too. Quote Link to comment
+Trexzer Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 I see this is reported as fixed but I've been still been getting a 404 intermittently when clicking "Back to Drafts" I did note that the "Back to Drafts" button links to https://www.geocaching.com/my/fieldnotes.aspx which then usually get redirected to https://www.geocaching.com/account/drafts Any chance you could change "Back to Drafts" to just simply link to https://www.geocaching.com/account/drafts to skip the redirect.
