+TheVoytekBear Posted April 3, 2021 Posted April 3, 2021 (edited) Hi, I wonder if this is some site wide failure. I got logged out from geocaching.com . When I try to log in again, the site claims my password is wrong. The forums, as you can see still work fo me. Edited April 3, 2021 by Keystone Quote
+Frau Potter Posted April 3, 2021 Posted April 3, 2021 Thanks for the reports. The engineers are busy working to resolve the issues. We hope to get the website and apps running again soon. 2 Quote
+ecanderson Posted April 3, 2021 Posted April 3, 2021 Yup. Server responses down to a bare crawl at best. Quote
+ecanderson Posted April 3, 2021 Posted April 3, 2021 Problem seems to have just now been resolved. 1 Quote
+sloth96 Posted April 5, 2021 Posted April 5, 2021 IS this reoccurring? The website seems very sluggish this AM. Quote
+searcherdog Posted April 5, 2021 Posted April 5, 2021 Sluggish for me too. It started about an hour ago. Perhaps the hamsters have not had enough easter eggs? 2 Quote
+DIGGEMUP Posted April 5, 2021 Posted April 5, 2021 Very slow & unresponsive in all search engines in UK today, hope it's fixed soon. Quote

+Malex14 Posted April 5, 2021 Posted April 5, 2021 Hi all, After the downtime on march 23 the website has terrible quality, during lunchtime in Germany the Performance is very pur. How ever, recherche, logging or other is not possible to do. When it will be better? Regards Malex14 Quote
+RecipeForDisaster Posted April 5, 2021 Posted April 5, 2021 At least I am not logged out. I just can’t quite do anything. Quote
+KRON family Posted April 5, 2021 Posted April 5, 2021 Maybe similar problem at geocaching.com/find:You must validate your account before you can find other users. Visit your profile page for validation instructions. Everything worked yesterday. Quote

+KRON family Posted April 5, 2021 Posted April 5, 2021 cerberus1: Current screen attached. The same problem even if I want to write an e-mail to someone. Quote

+Bl4ckH4wkGER Posted April 5, 2021 Posted April 5, 2021 @KRON family The issue is exactly what the site says - both emails associated with your account have become unvalidated. That can happen when emails sent to you bounce too often. This has nothing to do with the issues described by the other players above. To resolve this just go to https://www.geocaching.com/account/settings/emailpreferences and validate your emails again. Quote
+KRON family Posted April 5, 2021 Posted April 5, 2021 (edited) Thanks for the reply, but I'm not sure about that. Both emails were marked as "Validated". So I (gradually) deleted, added and validated both emails. I still get the same error messages, even on my mobile. I'm going to sleep, maybe it'll work itself out overnight. EDIT: Helped re-request a validation email at https://www.geocaching.com/v/send.aspx. The first attempt was unsuccessful (message: you have entered an incorrect login name or password; but I'm logged in and there are no username and password entries in the form), seccond was successful.
