Metropol

Down again.

Down again.

Which is interesting because it's only sites that are on the same username as metro that are down. My other stuff on the same server is fine. Wonder if the uploader is the culprit...

Has Jon ruined everything with pictures of Gay Byrne again?

It's a possibility.

Either way, it's back up for now.

edit: spoke too soon

I keep getting signed out of Metropol. For example, I went to upload somecaps to the Upload Service the other day, and selected them and hit 'upload', only for it to look like it was working as normal, before signing me out. However, on a second attempt I didn't get signed out. It seems to happy only if I hadn't visited the UploadService that browsing session before. I have cookies enabled and so on, so I don't think it's that. It also happened when I was using the search earlier to (which in itself seemed a bit broken), I got a 'You cannot use the search at this time. Try again in a few minutes' kind of message, upon which I was signed out. Odd.

Unless you're all trying to tell me something...

It's happened to me a few times as well. It seems to happen if the upload is a relatively large one (more than one file, or larger than a megabyte).

This latest problem seems to cause or is by caused the 'Headers already sent' error message too. I have found it happens on multiple files, even if the individual files are quite small.

it might be being caused by the server refusing to allow uploads over 2mb which was disabled when the old server was having a fit (it's worth mentioning the underlying cause of the fit was discovered and has now been removed however everything isn't back to 100% yet).

AFAIK however the headers already sent error was fixed?

It seems to be happening whatever file size the items I'm uploading are.

same here, every time even...

The 'Remember me' tickbox is a cookie that keeps you logged in, yes? If so, I've always been kept logged in through different sessions, but this recently doesn't seem to be working on any of my devices. Sometimes, I'll just go to Metropol and even though I signed in the day before and ticked 'Remember me', I'll be signed out, but sometimes it'll show I'm logged in, but then log me out with I click 'reply' - and as I say, it happens across my laptop, iThingy and phone.

'Please respond.'
