    1. I've been getting a lot of server errors and application errors these last three days or so. And usually the page will come up if I refresh immediately, but many have not been that transient and won't open.

      On Thursday afternoon/ evening, I was shut out of R&B, Profile, and anything on the chow.com domaine that didn't have chowhound.chow.com, even after I opened up no script on firefox and tried three different ISPs over the course of those hours. One 'hound contacted me and said he thought it might have been a DNS problem. But it seems to be fixed now.

      I had noted a widgetserver script running and thought that might be the problem. It's not coming up on any pages now.

        1. Hi Mick and Melanie - thanks for posting and bringing this to our attention. We are investigating the issue and will post back when find out what is causing this.

              I've been trying for a few months now to open this record for Fook Yuen restaurant and always get an application error, including just seconds ago.

                  Hi Melanie - the Engineers are looking into this one it's very weird. Thanks for letting us know and we will post back when we get the page back up and running.

                    1. re: CHOW HQ

                      This restaurant closed a few months ago. It might have been marked as 'closed', if that helps you track down the problem.

                        1. re: CHOW HQ

                          Here's another one that won't open.

                              Hi Melanie - that restaurant opened for us, are you still having issues?

                                1. re: CHOW HQ

                                  I get a 404 "CHOW: Whoops! File Not Found" when I click on that link.

                                    1. re: CHOW HQ

                                      Tried now and hit refresh 5 times --- no go.

                                          The restaurant is marked as closed, that might be why you can't see it and it appears for me. Still that is a bug because you should be able to see closed restaurants. Just to be sure is this the correct restaurant?

                                          We have logged a bug and the Engineers are looking into it.

                                              Yes, that's the one. It may not be "closed", but it is not a restaurant unless it has a snack bar in the gym or something like that.

                                                1. re: Melanie Wong

                                                  That record has been deleted, since it wasn't a restaurant. Where'd you find the link to it, Melanie?

                                                    1. re: Jacquilynne

                                                      I saw it at the end of the records roll for the Sf Bay Area restaurants & bars, which is now at page 1375.

                                                      http://search.chow.com/search?search_...

                                                      The sort order for the roll seems to put new records or newly updated records at the very last page. That is, if there are no reviews or discussions associated with them, then they go toward the front of the list. Is that the logic?

                                                      I look there from time to time to see what might be newly added. I noticed the not-restaurant-sounding name and tried to open it.

                                                        1. re: Melanie Wong

                                                          It looks like it's since dropped out of the search results.

                                            2. re: Melanie Wong

                                              When I say the name "Fook Yuen" with a California standard English accent I think the problem becomes more understandable... ;-D>

                                                1. re: Servorg

                                                  Fook Yuen is an Asian chain of cantonese restos. You're not suggesting anything that hasn't been said about the name in the ~20 years it operated in the Bay Area.
