What type of error message are you getting?

I was having the same problem all last night. I kept getting page cannot be displayed but only for this site; I was able to get to other sites so I knew it wasn't my internet connection. I even cleared all of my cache and still couldn't get on. I'm on my work PC today so I'm not sure if the problem still exists at home (even though I don't know why it wouldn't work there but it does here). Please let me know if there is anything else that I may need to do at home to get it working again. Thank you.

I've had the same problem for the last 3 days. It totally kicked me out--I didn't remember my password, so I had to reset it.

My kids just tried it at home for me and they are still getting the small message 'page cannot be displayed.'

It says error as if the website has been changed or does not exist. I can get in but it kicks me off frequently.

It seems to work ok with Internet Explorer but it kicks off on my AOL and it wasn't doing that before. I can retrieve all of my other sites on AOL fine.

This is the EXACT problem that I am having. I can't access the site from my AOL browser, but can access it just fine from web browsers such as Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox. Ladies having problems, do you all use AOL? I am going to report the problem to AOL to see if they can fix it on their end.

No I am using Internet Explorer and I have a Road Runner connection so I can't imagine why I would be having a problem. Administrators ... please advise!!! Thank you.

I too am on road runner. Yesterday I could only use IE to access the site. I usually use mozilla firefox and instead of seeing the pages rendered in the browser I was seeing the source code (HTML) of the page. When I put in the url of the page into IE I could see it.

You're lucky ... I can't even get that. I don't understand why no one is letting us know something. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH

The best solution is to log out of the forum (yes you need to do that from time to time) clear your temporary internet files and then re-login.

The IP of the server has changed so if you open a DOS window (command line) and type

ping www.longhaircareforum.com

it should reply:

I have had this problem all week. I dont know what is going on. All week I have barely been able to get on without having the next page come up with an error message. I dont know what is going on???? God bless you all.

At first I thought it was just me...but I see I am not the only one. I just subscribed yesterday and was kinda anxious to post some questions...but I guell I'll wait until the kinks are smoothed out. I'm patient.

 

[czyfaith77]

Hello. I have a problem still. It takes forever to get on the site. It keeps going into error. Please help. What was done when the site was worked on? It was fine the way it was.

 

[senimoni]

I don't have a problem logging in, but the actual pages seem to be taking longer to load before, or I have to hit refresh b/c it will time out.

For the past two days, I haven't been able to access the forum at all. I get an error message indicating the page doesn't exist or has moved. All other sites are fine. I've tried to get access on several different computers using AOL and Internet Explorer. Now, I am finally on, but frequently get the error message about a missing or moved page.

 

[Mestiza]

Now, I'm having problems w/ error messages, too! It's saying the site could not be found or does not exist. It's been happening VERY frequently, lately.

Ok ladies, here is the problem (and I am going to post this on the yahoo lhcffalloutshelter as well). I called Road Runner yesterday and after having me go through just about everything in the book they sent me to a specialist. Well because the LHCF server's IP address was changed (see Nikos post) that is why we are not able to get on. The guy told me that some routers (I think that is what he called them) are slower in updating the change of a website's IP address and that is why we are getting 'page cannot be displayed'. So if you call your ISP provider (as Nikos suggested) an tell them, then they should be able to speed it up. After calling Road Runner yesterday evening, I am now able to get on this morning. YAAAAAAAAY!!!!

This is really weird - what is happening I mean. We have 5 DNS servers covering LHCF for redundancy whereas most websites on the internet have 2. Usually DNS servers from IPs update their own DNS servers every day or every 48 hours the most. I cannot see why this change took so long to propagate over the internet.

The guy at Road Runner said that same thing. He said that the most it should take is 3 days for their DNS servers to update. I'm just glad that I can get on now and I posted my message to the Yahoo board because I'm sure there are more people that are unable to get on.
