Ironically, I have had no errors at all today.

(Maybe I shouldn't speak too soon.

Sometimes I go days without having one, and then I'll get 5 in a row.

It's 5:26, got this several times in a row, and every time, then it went away.

5:05 pm EST, about 10 min ago, I got "Could not connect to the database" for a while.

Something is definitely odd about this time of day.

Hint to sarge: by the time I can post a "I got a database error", the problem is gone.

Perversely, I am seeing no errors at this time.

Post by **wayfriend** » Tue Jan 24, 2012 9:39 pm

4:38 today.

And 4:56.

First the Watch wrote:Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@kevinswatch.ihugny.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Then the Watch wrote:phpBB : Critical Error

Those are the ones I get when I get errors, generally.

But I haven't gotten any today.

Does it make y'all feel better to post about it?

Post by **MsMary** » Wed Jan 25, 2012 4:57 am

But of course!

Or maybe we're just trying to lure Vain in here.

Of course it does!

I am just demonstrating that there seems to be a daily time period where we get certain kinds of errors. This could be traced back to something going on on the server.

Post by **aliantha** » Wed Jan 25, 2012 5:56 pm

It's not going to help, tho -- I think the server's in, like, Singapore.

I suspect there's some utility they have programmed to run at that time every day, which happens to coincide with 4:00pm Eastern Time.

Post by **Avatar** » Thu Jan 26, 2012 4:28 am

Could well be right. Although, those errors don't only happen at that time, so there are other factors too.

That is 5 a.m. in Singapore...not a usual time for maintentance procedures in most data centers, but possible, I suppose.

Post by **Avatar** » Thu Jan 26, 2012 4:58 am

They're usually scheduled for their off-peak hours. Anyway, I think it's Hong Kong. (Where the servers are. That's certainly where the hosts are registered.)
