    Can someone in Hexus admin sort this out??

    I cannot access the forums without going through a proxy!!

    If I don't use a proxy I get the following error message:

    "Database error
    The HEXUS.community discussion forums database has encountered a problem."

    This has been happening since yesterday and is quite annoying TBH!!

    Re: Can someone in Hexus admin sort this out??

    and can i make one last appeal to be allowed into the 'bargains' section of Hexus? i don't ever remember getting banned from there, but i am.. and i've tried PM'ing several admins/mods about this problem but they always say they'll get back to me.

    Re: Can someone in Hexus admin sort this out??

    I have e-mailed the Hexus webmaster and forum people and have received no replay.

    Also I keep getting logged out after around 30 minutes or so when I could access the forums.

    It seems strange that its broken just for you.

    have you cleared any temp files from your browser ? also try a different browser.

    fyi: ejecting entertainment devices from your corral when you don't get a response in 30 minutes is unlikely to endear you towards the (volunteer) administrators....

    I e-mailed one in the morning and another a few hours ago. Also I have tried three different browsers and two different computers. I have disabled all security software and cleared everything I can thinkoff.

    your currently browsing via a US proxy from what I can see, so its not your account. I've not had any stability issues and have been online all day. If changing your web connection ( by using the proxy ) seems to resolve the issue , thats where I'd be tempted to start looking. Do you run many browser plugins? if you havn't done so can you try and disable those too ?

    I am browsing via a US proxy since if I try to even access the forums normally via any web browser it throws up the error message in the first post. I tried this as a last resort. I can acesss the non forum part of Hexus and even log in there but cannot access the forum part unless I use a proxy!!

    It is only http://forums.hexus.net/ which seems to throwing a hissy fit, In the other thread Clunk said he had the same issue sometime (unless it was in jest).

    Using a proxy is the only way I can log in. I have disabled all my plugins in firefox to no avail. I have used Firefox 3.5 and 3.6,IE7,IE8 and Opera 9. The last three have no plugins at all and I tried different computers.

    Re: Can someone in Hexus admin sort this out??

    I tried cycling through the things I did before for the second time(including rebooting the router and The computers) and I can access the forum section again.

    OTH, it still doesn't explain why I could log-in to other forums. When I looked on other forums about the error message most replied were suggesting an issue with the websites in question so this is why I made the post(s).

    Regarding the ISP it was a speed issue and they sorted it out. I could access any website but at pedestrian rate. Now I get much faster internets.

    I don't understand what the heck happened especially since I had tried he same things earlier. Thanks to everyone and sorry to the people who I may have annoyed.

    OTH,don't call me a spammer especially since other forums members(londoner being one) have repeated the same questions in different parts of the forum and also when you have people like rollo who have been banned on multiple forums too.
