This is the Red Board fail mode . . .

Hey all you techs out there - whats going on there?

A. Bad choice of program?

B. poor tech support?

C. Bad hardware?

D. Something else?

D. Something in the software attempted to access (get to) a location in memory that isn't allowed. Often due to a chunk of code getting corrupted or any number of reasons.

A program you’re trying to run is trying to access memory that is already used by a program that is already running. For example if you already have program A running and program A is accessing memory piece A if program B that you’ve just started is trying to access memory piece A you will get the Access Violation at Address Error.

Not anything you did, nor can you fix it.
 
Last time I looked they were running a php/MySQL on a windows server. Good luck with that. A,B and D
 
I'm just getting an "HTTP 500 Internal Server Error." It's just from the forum. The main AOPA site is fine.
 
The forum site was down for a bit.
 
I'm still getting access violation errors this morning.
 
These boards are a product called vBulletin which is a bunch of PHP scripts that also makes heavy use of a SQL database (varies with installation). Almost certainly some file got corrupted on the server (sometimes this happens when the disk gets full, etc...). It's not a big thing for a competent adminstrator to fix, but since the real red board adminstrator (not the moderators) is a 9-5 guy, if the site blows up after hours or on weekends, it's likely to stay down until Monday.

Where do I get a 9-5 IT guy job? We go on vacation with laptops and VPN access.

Outages like they experience so frequently would get you booted from every job or contract I've ever worked on and one downtime that long would be enough.

Yea, I'd like to know as well. I have been working all weekend due to the storm in the Northeast :(

Verizon has conveniently lost power to one of their CEV's that house 30+ T-1's for our NE call center.

Funny, when my servers stop doing their intended business purpose on weekends, someone is on-call. ;)

(Not that I care about the Red Board or even participate there, but just noting that normally there's a sysadmin on-call at most businesses.)
 
There's no farking snow storm in Frederick. And preps to all the dedicated IT guys on the forums who monitor their systems from home and spring into action on failures. However, that has NOT been the case with regard to the AOPA systems.
 
Not like it matters. This is a better forum anyways.
