500 Internal Server Error

[zin1953]

GAWD, I'm tired of seeing this!

[meatn3]

Yes, this has been surfacing a lot this past week....

[zin1953]

. . . and the week before, and the week before that . . .

[zin1953]

I know it's rude to pat myself on the back, but . . .

Hey, everyone -- congratulate me!!! I just hit 10,000!!!

(500 Internal Server Error X 20 = 10,000)

[carswell]

Hey, it's only been three months of friggin' user hell...

:-o

[JungMann]

I thought service had gotten a lot better and I wanted to thank the engineers for that. Although, ironically, I got a 500 error when I tried to reply to this thread!

[Engineering]

I've taken one of our servers out of the loop that i think was having issues processing pages in a timely manner. Let me know if you still get those 500 errors.

Joe Frost

[steve h.]

so what's the problem with the site?

[carswell]

As bad as ever. In fact, worse than in the last week or so. Just got one just a second ago when trying to access this thread.

[Engineering]

Are you getting the 500's right now?

[carswell]

Not since 10:45:30 p.m.

[Engineering]

Let me know if you get more.

[carswell]

Just got another one. 7:38 a.m. EDT.

[MMRuth]

I've gotten several this morning as well.

[hannaone]

They went away last night, but are back this morning.

[zin1953]

Nah, that was just you going to sleep . . .

;^)

[hannaone]

LoL!!!
They did disappear for about three hours last night (8:00 pm to 11:00 pm Pacific Time), after which I did go to sleep.

[zin1953]

Yup! 7:30 PDT

[Chris VR]

Just got one now. But no more of the "Application Errors" that were rampant earlier in the night.

[Pat Hammond]

Yes, I've been getting 500s since I came on this morning.

[jfood]

joe

just received canot open page but noy 500 error message. not sure if your or my end issue. wanted to give you a heads up

[Engineering]

Screenshot any weird errors so i can debug. Thanks!

Joe Frost

[jfood]

OK i save the screenshot, now what do i do with it please?

[kpzoo]

You could use the "attach photo" option and upload it here.

[jfood]

this is a .doc document. hope it works. if not send an email to the email of record for jfood and he'll revert with the .doc attached.

[Jacquilynne]

Rather than a doc, paste it into Microsoft Paint, and save it as a .jpg file (not a .bmp file) and upload it here.

Otherwise, you can email it to me at jacquilynne dot schlesier at cnet dot com and I'll pass it along to Joe.

[kpzoo]

If you have any kind of graphics program, you can paste it in there, save it as a JPG and then upload it here. Otherwise, perhaps you could email the .doc to Jacquilynne, I've seen her provide her email addy elsewhere in Tech Help.

[jfood]

OK you have read how jfood can type, a graphics program would be an interesting try. BUT, he just sent an email to Jacquilynne.

[zin1953]

. . . can’t open the page “http://chowhound.chow.com/”. The error was: “Operation could not be completed. (kCFErrorDomainCFNetwork error 302.)” (kCFErrorDomainCFNetwork:302)

Well, at least it's down from 500 to 302! ;^)

[Gio]

This is what I just got:

The website cannot display the page
HTTP 500
Most likely causes:
The website is under maintenance.
The website has a programming error.

What you can try:
Refresh the page.

Go back to the previous page.

More information

This error (HTTP 500 Internal Server Error) means that the website you are visiting had a server problem which prevented the webpage from displaying.

For more information about HTTP errors, see Help.

[Veggo]

FWIW, I just had it while attempting to open the new "bratwurst on grill" thread.

[steve h.]

Safari can’t open the page.
Safari can’t open the page “http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/546326”. The error was: “Operation could not be completed. (kCFErrorDomainCFNetwork error 302.)” (kCFErrorDomainCFNetwork:302) Please choose Report Bugs to Apple from the Safari menu, note the error number, and describe what you did before you saw this message.

[ElsieDee]

Got the 500 Internal Server Error twice in a row - 4:16 PM, Pacific Coast. Running Firefox.

[mr jig]

In the couple of years i have visited this site several times a day most every day i have NEVER had a 500 error nor any other error.
I am in Albany NY on Time Warner's HS Roadrunner and run a Mac.
Glad to be out of the described problem pool.

[steve h.]

500 internal server errors are still with us.

[zin1953]

I just got one trying to open this thread! LOL

[jfood]

sunday 630am ET. it got a good night sleppe and is ready for another day. just received one.

[JoanN]

This is just sooo painful. Tried to reply to a thread on the Home Cooking board a few minutes ago. It took me five attempts: three hangs and one Internal Server Error.

[red dragon]

I've had problems for several, several months. It's painful to log on! Saving a post (or editing) is a nightmare. I hit the save button and go run an errand!!

[zin1953]

So: first I get

>>> Safari could not open the page “http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/546164” because the server is not responding. <<<

So I hit the back button, get the the list of boards, click on the link to the "Technical Help" board and what do I get???

>>> 500 Internal Server Error <<<

[Gio]

I wonder what happened to Joe Frost in engineering. I thought he was going to "debug."

[steve h.]

i'm hoping joe has the day off.
all the better to tackle the issues come monday.

[Gio]

Ah yes - The Week-end. I thought of that but don't we come first?
OK..... JK.

[Engineering]

I was taking a look on the weekend but didn't log that many 500's

[MMRuth]

A lot of times one doesn't actually get an error message, but just a blank page, or the page simply doesn't load, fwiw. Thanks for checking in over the weekend!

[Veggo]

I just got a 500.... in a hopeful but feckless anticipation that the world is now perfect...

[Gio]

Always the optimist.

[Gio]

Ah Good... thanks for checking. But I do see some reported on Sunday. Then we have those received today.

[hannaone]

Just wanted to report that this morning from about 7AM (Pacific) through 10 AM, not a single 500 (or other) error. The only thing I noticed was an occasional delay in page loading (Initial request hangs - had to click link up to three times).
Much, much, better performance. Thanx Joe/Engineering staff.

Edit: And now for the post delays???

[goodhealthgourmet]

speak for yourself, hannaone, i've been getting 500 errors all day! i guess the only good news is that i've become so frustrated with it happening constantly that i'm spending a little less time on CH...and a little more time being productive ;)
