Title: Error Message on playmodb
Post by: toyologist on August 21, 2012, 06:21:31
I just want to make sure that I'm not the only one receiving the "software error" message when attempting to search the database. I've been getting the message for the past 10 hours, at least!

You have right. I'm also getting the same message.

Friendly George.

Did you email Heather to let her know about the error message?

webmaster@playmodb.org

She might be doing some maintenance which isn't yet completed, or perhaps her host has changed a setting somewhere.

Same happens to me :(

webmaster@playmodb.org

I emailed Heather but received the following reply from the email provider:

Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently:

     webmaster@playmodb.org


So there is something wrong with the whole site  :-\

I sent an email to her gmail account, so hopefully she'll get that.

Still without! I hope everything can be worked out soon.

Have you heard back bb?

I recently got a pretty big Playmobil lot locally and I'm at a complete loss trying organize it all! Can't wait for the much needed help of playmodb!

No I haven't, not yet. It's possible she's really busy with something else right now and hasn't a chance to check in on things. I'm sure she will get in fixed shortly, so no need to worry. We all tend to panic every time it goes down. :lol: I guess we realize just how much we need it when it isn't there.

I was hoping it would be up by now. I just got some sets in the mail and wanted to see which ones she still needed info for.

Still not working from my side of the globe!....

Do we take this site for granted or not?  I refer to this absolutly amazing database at least twice a day and when it falls down, where do I go? :-[ snif...

Hope she's probably on some well deserved holidays, and everything is fine with her...

Maybe we should have Heather cloned as soon as she gets back, just in case...  ;D

I second the hope that Heather is well up and just relaxing in the sun elsewhere... and yes, everytime her side is down I really realize what her work means for us and how much depends on the easy way to search for parts! For example, as I told elsewhere, there is a new release of my 3D-project nearly finished but it is impossible to go on and finish it without the amazing support of Heather's database. So yes Hadoque, you are right! I would pay anything to get sure Heather's work is saved to all the future!

btw: Heather, if you are on holyday indeed, next time you have to ask us when you could take it!  :lol:

WE'RE BACK........

Boy, can't go on vacation for nuthin' round here. One day gone and the hosting company &$%#*'s up my entire database setup. But a couple of emails sorted it out - if I'd been here, you'd hardly have noticed. Anyway. Whew.
