404 DNF for cache pages

[+Team DEMP]

Site is serving up 404 DNF pages for caches that I was just viewing and refreshed.

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. 

[+Team DEMP]

Whatever was broken was reverted or addressed and both URL formats are working again.

The site's hickup is gone. ?

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
