"Connection has timed out" message

[Sarah]

keeps popping up when trying go open thread --- anyone else? Temporary glitch or something else?

[Sarah]

Still happening more often than not -- so annoying...

[Engineering]

Any particular thread, or all pre-existing threads?

[Sarah]

All - actually now I can't get into chowhound.com my usual way, via bookmark directly to My Unread Posts... help! Getting Chow is out washing dishes...or sorry can't find that page...

[Engineering]

Is your bookmark to http://www.chow.com/new_posts ?

[Sarah]

Yes.

[Engineering]

This should now be working please let us know if you are still experiencing problems.

[Sarah]

No, still the 404 file not found...

[Engineering]

Apologies, there's a little confusion on our end as we clean up the latest upgrade. This should be back in order soon.

[Engineering]

This seems to have magically started working again before we could fix it. Is that the case for you as well?

[Sarah]

Well, lucky you! Me, nah - still getting the nasty message!

[meatme]

Not for me. Clicking http://www.chow.com/new_posts takes me to error page http://www.chow.com/503.html.

[meatme]

Works now.

[Sarah]

Not for me yet, still....

[Engineering]

If we're lucky this might be a caching issue. If you clear your browser cache does the page still fail? If so, the problem problem you're seeing may be more specific than the one we've been looking into.

[Sarah]

How do I do that?

[Engineering]

For firefox, http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/H...

Also: can you show us the exact link you're using? Since we're still working on the linking bug, please make sure the link is not on a new line.

[Sarah]

I have cleared the cache and I can get to CH the way I like to. Here's it is:
http://www.chow.com/new_posts/0 ---- I deleted the /0 and then it worked.
ETA - strangely enough, it won't bookmark -- even when I changed title...

[Sarah]

OK - now bookmark brings me to Your Unread... thanks!
Still getting lots of Timed Out msgs when trying to open various threads though.
