LOR 500 internal server error

[Fonz]

Trying to submit a site for the last 14 hours, always get this 500 error. Any probs?

[Greenguy]

Really? I just looked in the admin & I've been getting submits all night, but I will of course have the tech's look into it.

[Cohiba]

Hi,
I can't submit my sites too. Do you know that problem GG?

[Greenguy]

I am getting submits, so it is working - LOL - all I can say is that they are working on the problem & if you get the 500 Internal Server Error message, hit your back button & try it again :)

[Fonz]

hit the backbutton about 50 times in the last hours :)

guess I got to try again tomorrow on another connection |afro|

[plateman]

hey you talking about gg site i cant submit keep getting server errors

strange thing today everwhere i went pages loaded slow i think internent is clogged greens site loads slow ars slow and i have cable conn

[Fonz]

hmmm.. on the other connection (ADSL) I get a "Server cannot be found", did you put a block on european countries or so GG? :)

Anyone want to subit my site? |afro|

[Greenguy]

LOL - no, I am not blocking any countries :)

[MatrixFan]

I just tried to submit and I get the same thing. I hit the back button and tried 30 times. No Luck.|sad|

[plateman]

check this out i can go on line some sites load fast some crawl my isp says there a problem with conn in my area thats why it kicks out did not find server error do u know how many times i tryed

lol |pissed|

ps i think this hole webmaster shit is a pain in the ass |pissleft|

[Greenguy]

I know I know - I suck |banghead|

It's a really strange error that's happening - it says it can't find a file in the admin, which is there at the path that it says it isn't (if that makes sense)

We are working on it :)

[Jensen]

Worked on the 18th attempt for me |smooch|

[Fonz]

*NOTE*
The Link Script & the server do not like each other & thus people are getting "500 Internal Server Errors" when they try to submit. The only thing I can say at this time is please click your back button & hit submit again & again until it goes thur. We are working on the problem & hope to have it fixed very soon :)


Thats one hell of a way to keep away those autosubmitters GG |jester|

[plateman]

oh your with greenguy it was a bad day yesterday then to top it off power was out on my block all night

[Fonz]

still no succes after 258 tries
maybe I'll try it again when all is solved |afro|

[plateman]

me either still getting dns if i leave 1 or 2 fields empty then the script seems to be right but if you fill it out right it gives me dns and there no problems on my end

thanks

[plateman]

is there any other way to list my site email,fedx, postal mail

i tryed so many times i dont see how other people are getting in

|pcsucks| |pcsucks| |raygun|

thanks

[codymc12]

Here's what I experience:

If fill out all fields - I get a DNS error - can't contact site.

If I take the data out of a field I get, alternately, either a 500 server error or the link program message that I forgot to fill out a field. :)

|pcsucks|

[Greenguy]

We think we have the problem solved - if anyone is still getting the error , please let me know :)

[plateman]

samething tryed 3 times dns

thanks

[Greenguy]

I don't know what to do about dns errors - I was talking about the "500 Internal Server Errors"

[plateman]

gg you have to have a problem for the dns i submited 2 sites to differnt ll and no proplems i have the same thing going on that codymc 12 has a tried 2 different puters

i even took router off still same thing

[Steve]

I'm also getting either DNS errors or the following system error message:

Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@link-o-rama.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Anyone have any ideas.

Steve

[plateman]

gg iam no script expert but what that thing does is remarkable and finding out what wrong is a pain in the brain

its checking so many things and timing out before it does it all would be my guess i know what you and your guys are going through i been a pro ase auto mechanic for 20 years

what ever i do i cant fool it urls that are already listed stuff like that

ps ill wait to you get it fixed and i am not rushing you

thanks |pcsucks| |pissleft|

[codymc12]

Well, the dns error is gone for me now - just the 500 server error left.

[plateman]

i went to bro in laws house tryed a diff conn aol dial up dns 3 times

thanks

[Greenguy]

|banghead|

Hopefully we can find the problem on Monday :)

[codymc12]

Hi GG,

This must suck ass for you...

Below data not another complaint - just info that may or may not be useful for you on Monday.

Here's the behaviour I'm getting:

I do a submit with all fields filled in, and get a cannot find server error.

Interestingly, if I do a 'detect network settings' I am then taken to the error page for linkadmin1 - the one that says 'error - your submission could not be accepted for the following reasons...' blah blah.

If I go back and remove, say, my name from the fields on your submit page, I don't get a DNS error. Instead I get the error page that says 'your name is required'. Same happens, basically, if I remove the data in any one of the fields.

That pretty much sums it up. One thought - I may be talking out my ass - but one thing to check might be the redir after submit. Generally takes you to greenguysboard.com - perhaps something on that?

Anyway - I hope this data is helpful. Of course, you could always try this: |chainsaw|

[Greenguy]

I think it's having trouble writing to the files - almost like the permissions are being changed randomly (which is not the case BTW)

If you leave a field out on the form, the page itself tells you the problem by showing the error from the script.

I just basically sit here & |banghead| when they come up in the admin :D

[Steve]

I tries submitting today with the same results either a dns or a 500 internal error page. I switched from dsl to dialup. FYI the isp I use is Earthlink.

Cheers,
Steve

[plateman]

any luck greenguy on submit problem

thanks

[Verbal]

No luck here.. I tried Monday night for about an hour. :(

[Greenguy]

I was gonna ask you guys - LOL

Richard found an error, corrected it, it was fine for a few hours, then we got the errors again, so he went back, found another error.......

Long story short, the way it's set up, the fucker shouldn't be working at all - LOL - but it is 75% of the time, so we are baffled.

Richard put a debugger in there to check for errors & report them back to him.

If that doesn't work, he might do a complete re-install which is a huge pain in the ass when you factor in there's almost 4 years of data in there.

[codymc12]

Still down for me. Full reinstall? That would suuuuuuck!

|shocking|

[plateman]

if it works 75% of the time the 50 or 60 times i tried over the past days maybe 10 or 20 times will get through now lol |pcsucks|

[plateman]

i just tried at least 15 times firet 10 i got dns 2 or 3 500s then dns i got your answer do you know what a ford hammer is for stuff like this lol

i can give you url and put link on lol|bananna|

ps i am so tired of typing in description, that i been just hitting
some keys lol sorry about the humor sometimes you just have to laugh about it

[Steve]

I tried submitting four times. Twice I received the can not find server error message and the other two times I received the 500 error message.

Steve

[Fonz]

Just put about 50 records in Richards debugger, hope he can do something with that |afro|

[Greenguy]

All I can say is that they are working on it - LOL

The last ICQ I got from Richard said simply "Totally freacking bizarre!"

[Greenguy]

Problem should be solved (but I have said that in the past - LOL)

Let me know if you can submit or if you get an error.

[plateman]

sorry same thing

thanks i even refresh page and started over

thanks

[codymc12]

I just tried - I get a DNS error in IE and a 500 error in Netscape. Probably just a difference in how each browser handles it.

But still can't submit. |sad|

[codymc12]

addendum - I did a refresh in Netscape and got a 'the document contained no data'

refresh in IE gives me the 500 Internal error repeatedly.

[Verbal]

Still getting errors here too. :(

I'm using IE.. and I get both errors.
I get the 500 Internal Server Error 80% of the time, and the DNS Cannot Find Server error 20% of the time. Roughly..

[plateman]

hey gg has anybody been getting through or is a small # of people

i keep trying, man when you get it working, you will have a list as long as the ohio river

thanks

[Steve]

Sorry. Same thing for me also. I am still getting can not find server or 500 error messages every time I try.

Steve

[plateman]

I submited so many times I feel like a fetish slave

LOL |waves| |rasta|

[Greenguy]

Damn it!

I am getting submits - a little less then I am used to getting, but still enough to update every day (added 69 new links today)

|banghead|

[plateman]

that dont make any sense gg

i tryed my ass off aol diff pc diff house

its crazy

thanks for keeping us informed

my isp is earthlink how about others in thread post your isp

maybe its related to isp that day my cable company had a problem it only showed up on some sites maybe that the case here how can the script cause some people problems and not others makes you wonder

[sun]

I tried 4 times and got (after hitting "submit link" button) 3 times server not found/page can't be displayed one one time internal server error.

sun

[Steve]

Hi Plateman,

I think you might have the right approach. This doesn't seem to be random in that some people can submit and some people can not submit at all. So perhaps there is a common denominator among us. I've used both Earthlink, dialup and dsl, and dialup AOL with no luck. I tried Netscape 4.8 and IE version 6 with the latest service and security patches applied.

GG,

Should the group of us who have been posting here PM your what we have been trying to submit in the submit form fields? Perhaps there is something in the way we fill out the submit form that is causing problems with your script.

Steve

[Greenguy]

No, it's not your ISP's, because I get the errors in my admin as well :(

[MatrixFan]

Still no luck here. |sad|

[Kezza]

GG is it possible that the problem may not be with your server/script?

The only reason I mention this is that I notice if I leave a field out of your submission form then your submit cgi returns an error straight away which indicates to me that your script and server are fine. I am not sure how the blacklist feature is set up but I imagine your submit cgi would pass the submitted information to the blacklist server. If this server was in fact timing out or erroring in some way, or in fact your submit cgi was sending the information to an incorrect url, this would result in your submit cgi not being able to complete the submission process and possibly returning the error received from the blacklist server

Just a thought

[plateman]

gg u said u have 4 years worth of data to loose on reinstall what kezza said makes sense the server is searching through to so many files and conn is timing out before its job is done thats my 2 cents, can you save half of them and clean some out, that would be bad to loose your blacklist files

the people that are able to submit what kind of conn do they have and loc your in ny is server there am in ohio its odd that some can some cant if script was at fault, oh your getting them in the admin sorry duh that might be the only thing is to delete and start over

good luck |santa|

[Greenguy]

It is the script and/or server that's causing the problems - as I've said before, I get the 500 errors when I am in my admin working every now & then.

It's trying to load a file & 90% of the time it does, but 10% of the time, it doesn't :(

If you leave out part of the submit form, that file does not need to be accessed - the page itself knows if you left something out & thus you get the script error for a blank area on the form.

We did add another gig of ram yesterday, thinking that there were too many processes on the server & that was causing the file to not load sometimes, but as you know that didn't work :(

I'm just waiting to hear form Richard today & then I'll conf in Nat Net to see if we can come up with a solution.

I know you guys are pissed - believe me, my reviewers as well as myself are just as annoyed by this. Nothing sucks worse than reviewing links only to find the script went 500 on you & then you have to redo the links you just reviewed |banghead|

[Greenguy]

Attempt #48 to correct the problem has been done - please let me know if you can submit or if you still get errors :)

[plateman]

no dns tryed 3 or 4 times

i just open up a fresh page and tryed again same thing sorry

[sun]

3 times "page can't be displayed" :(

[MatrixFan]

No go here.


Jason

[Steve]

Tried it several times and still get the same errors.

Sorry,
Steve

[Greenguy]

FUCK

[codymc12]

No go for me. :(

[Greenguy]

The good news is that the 500 errors are gone <knock on wood>

The bad news is that the submit page seems to be hanging &/or timing out - thus the "no dns" errors.

Richard is looking at that as I type :)

[plateman]

Any luck greenguy i miss being listed on your LL |sad|

question sometimes do other link list donate some links for someone starting a link list as i am http://pornoplentyxxxlinks.com

its a find time project thing that i want to get going soon

[Chop Smith]

Greenguy,

You might want to check http://www.algcash.com/
I have been trying off and on for the last 15 hours and continute to get 500s errors.

[Greenguy]

plateman - Richard will be looking at the submit page tomorrow for me - the 500 errors seem to be gone, but the submit page is timing out for some reason :(

Also, if you need links, surf around, find sites you like & then list them - just make up your own descriptions :)

Chop - algcash is no dns at the moment - Anne's fighting with the registrar right now :(

[Greenguy]

Fonz (and everyone else)

Can you please try & submit a site to me & see if the problem is now solved?
