Was the board down - or was it my server?

I couldn't get to the auspet site today and I had difficulty getting to it yesterday. Has anyone else had problems getting to this site?

When I tried getting to it - there was a message that said there was a "critical error". I don't know what that means. Also it said something about the site had reached maximum posts and had expired.

Has anyone else seen this page and message?

Sorry to be so WAY off the dog topic!

Yuppers, I think it was down quite a while. It started Thursday night around 10pm for me... I couldn't get on until almost 7pm yesterday.

Hi Guys,

Yes, we experienced some database issues at the host level. The forum was down almost all day today. I am being told that the problems is now fixed. Hopefully we’ve seen the last of it.

Please let me know immediately if you are still experiencing any weird error messages when trying to login, post, reply etc.

My email: admin@auspet.com , It’ll be great if you could copy and paste the entire content of the error message into your email. Your the best

We should copy your e-mail address down too because if it goes down again and we cant get in then we cant get your e-mail address to send you an e-mail. Wink

lol lol lol!!
Good point DeLuk!!
If the server is down - there's no access to an e-mail!!!

The weather is great here in Indiana today - I'm going to get everyone outside to play (and do a little yard work too?)!

I want to work with my pup with "heel". He's doing great with everything else - but he's still too scatter-brained to concentrate on heeling. I have been working with him for 3-5min sessions a couple of times a day. Today, I may take him out of the yard and try for a walk to the end of the block! He still likes to jump up and sometimes still gets so excited that he needs to grab the leash! He's so funny!!

LOL.
Are you a Munster fan?
That was my favorite show when I was a kid!
LOL

Pet Therapy - it's just a silly name that really came out of the blue. I am a fan of "The Munster's" and the "Addam's Family" - I don't know if you are old enough, but I remember that they were both popular (along with Bonanza) during the same TV season! Ah - those were the days!!!

Anyway, I just added and extra "n" to Herman and changed the Munster to the cheesy type - Muenster! I was going to use the usual spelling when I registered on a very large site - and would you believe - someone had already had that name registered!! So I had to make the modification!

Sorry that I don't have a more interesting story to tell - but at least I can remember it.

OH yea, I was a huge little house on the prairie fan too! LOL.
To this day, all of these (well not so much a fan of the Adams family) are my favorite shows. Oh and I liked the Waltons too! So far gone are these families with no disfunction!! LOL!!!
PS I am 43 years old !!!
Anyone else care to share their age? LOL.

I agree that gone are the days of TV shows that portray "normal" families.
Once your kids are past the PBS Seasame Street age - they pretty much jump into a world of dysfunctional TV-land. What a loss for the kids.

This is one of the reasons that my dogs are so important to my family. We spend a lot more time with them than we do with the TV.

We spend a lot of time grooming and training. We spend a lot of time playing and loving our dogs. Everyone benefits.

As far as my age --- well, let's just say that the AARP has been sending me a lot of mail lately!!!
