s.c.a.n. Website Outage

Kevo

I first noticed the outage at midnight EDT last night. It happened again approx. 9:00 pm EDT. Today's outage lasted approx. less than an hour.

As soon as I hit Post Discussion, it went out again... No chance to even log out.

Yes I also noticed the outage. This forum is hosted by a third party, "Vanilla forums". When I checked their website the following explanation was posted.
==========
3:45 am UTC resolved
This was traced back to network connectivity issues with a single VM, causing packet loss to backend storage. These issues have been resolved and normal operation is expected.
2:46 am UTC info
One of our clusters is experiencing degraded performance as a result of a bad disk, we are troubleshooting.

This morning, Monday March 23rd. I am getting an error message when I set the refresh to 15 seconds on a chart. I have reported this to StockCharts Support. I am thinking this might be somehow a related issue even though these forums are hosted by a third party.

Whatever the issue was with "refresh" appears to have been resolved. Working correctly, for me, now!

Yes working again for me also. I also sent in a report this morning with the full error coding. Maybe a server just had to be re-booted.

As far as the two issues being related, I don't think so, different platforms on different servers at different locations.

Yes there is no guarantee that this site is up 100% of the time. Might have something to do with the sudden increase in spammers trying to join this site in the last few days. Working for me now.
