Topic: Unable to view pictures?

[timiano]

Hi

I'm having trouble looking at the pictures that are hosted by a4a. All I get is the placement image for the image with the red cross.

Then trying to download the photo by clicking on the link below, I get the following:

Error Code: 500 Internal Server Error. Not implemented (-2147467263)

Anyone?

Thanks

Tim

Timiano, when you visit the site do you log on?  Most times I get logged in automatically but occasionally I notice that I am not logged on and am shown as a guest.  It is then that I cannot see the pictures nor can I enter the Watershed until I log in. 

I think this is probably the reason but if not you may have to contact Dan.  Try again and look at the top of the page where it will show you whether you are a guest or logged in.

Hi Pauline

Thanks for the reply. I am currently logged in, and can access the Watershed. Dan did post a message at 12:17 saying that he was having server problems due to an attack. He didn't go into any details, but that could have something to do with it.

Just as a test, if you go into March competition vote, can you see the pictures? (maybe cached on your machine though). And, if you click on the link under the photos does it open up the image, or do you get the same error as me?

Thanks

Hi,

I've just checked, and everything looks OK.

What operating system (windows/linux/mac) do you use, and which browser (ie, firefox, safari)?

Cheers

I'm using two machines, same results. One is Vista Ultimate with IE7, the other is XP Pro with IE6.

Just to add I was getting this on the laptop with Vista Premium and IE7. We also have IE7 and XP on the desktop tho and the photos are fine, so presumed yet ANOTHER Vista bug and left it at that.

Hi

I've visited other forums powered by SMF and had similar problems. However, I do visit a board that is running 1.1.2 and have not had problems.

Any ideas?

[Admin aka Dan]

Sorry for the late reply.

No ideas - sorry!

The changes between this version of SMF and 1.1.2 should not matter, but we are in the process of upgrading, so we'll soon know if that is / was the problem!
