The site wasn't under construction. I'm not understanding?

I don't know what the problem was. But every few moments, another row of icons appeared.

BTW, this new software is still being learned by myself (and probably everyone) so the more organized we can be with issues the better. This particular issue I don't believe has anything to do with the Under Construction stupid ass "feature".



Speaking of Under Construction, I'm hoping with the upgrade, we won't be bothered by that anymore. Cross. Fingers.

Oops, I didn't realize this thread was strictly for the Under Construction splash page. Sorry about that.

By the way, the oddly multiplying header is still showing up, at least on the Post a reply page. It never happened before the upgrade to 6.0. How can they release a package with so many flagrant bugs?

So many flagrant bugs? Like what?


The only one that I've seen mentioned that can be attributed to the upgrade is the attachment you posted and I'm not sure that wasn't browser created. I've been pounding the site hard with FireFox and IE9 with no issues at all.


The Chat wasn't part of the upgrade, it's just a weak ass chat module that hasn't had attention paid to it by its developer for quite some time.

The forums are a different software entirely that is plugged into the core and integrated the members.

I wasn't remarking about the chat applet in this thread. I was remarking about the Post a reply page on the forum. (The multiplying header is showing up again even as I type this.)

As I have stated before, I am running Chrome or Firefox on Mac OS X Snow Leopard. Ultimately, that should be irrelevant. The era of tweaking websites for specific browsers should be dead, now that all major browsers are standards compliant. Any website that looks significantly different from one browser to another is poorly coded. That was the point of my previous post. I can't even imagine what kind of bug would result in a header that slowly fills up my entire screen. I have never seen that kind of behavior before on any webpage. lol

Obviously, I am not blaming you. I am simply baffled that the developers could release such a buggy package.

I've said this quite a few times and apparently need to make it clear once again.

This site is TWO software's working as one.

There's the core site, which is DotNetNuke, or the shell if you will.
The forums are YetAnotherForum, which the software developers created a module for DotNetNuke.

The version of dotnetnuke we're running, is 6.0.0 which is NOT compatible with 1.9.5.5. Therefore we'll see some goofy stupid stuff because the YAF folks didn't release the DNN module for YAF that works with DNN 6.0.0 yet.

Make sense?


This probably begs the question, why upgrade one, when it's not compatible with the other? Here's where we go full circle back to the topic of this thread. I'm sick of waking up in the morning and seeing the site is under construction. I shouldn't be nervous when I navigate to my own site in the morning. I tested the DNN version on packersbeta.com and it worked fine with YAF 1.9.5.5 so I upgraded in HOPES that the annoying pissant under construction page never shows its ugly fat fucking face again.

The site is acting very strange today.

When you come to PackersHome and see "Under Construction", chances are the SQL Server is timing out. This tells the site software, hey something is wrong, throw up the Under Construction page. It's done for security reasons.

I'm in constant discussion with the host. They will either fix this issue, or the site will be moved to a new host.



The only time I have the site under construction is going to be late on a Friday evening, or during the weekend. I usually use my own custom page for the site being down too.

So basically if you see the under construction, that's the host fucking up, again. Good thing the host is free... oh wait.

Kevin, do you want us to let you know when we get the UNDER CONSTRUCTION page (as opposed to the one that has your one sentence message)?

Its happened to me several times over the past few weeks, but I can't remember exactly when other than its when I'm at home rather than at work (say 7 pm-6 a.m.)
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
