Forum Stopped Working HTTP ERROR 500

[Venenatis]

Hi, just got IPB a week ago and it suddenly stopped working.  Any quick solutions to this?

 

The vanguard-rs.ipbhost.com page isn’t working

vanguard-rs.ipbhost.com is currently unable to handle this request.

HTTP ERROR 500

Glad it's not just me. By gone do you mean your site is better now? 

[antr12]

Please submit a ticket if you are having issues with your site, and we can take a look.

I am hosted on the IPS Cloud and my board was down this morning with the 500 Error. I've been in touch via Ticket with Support and apparently a lot of boards went down. It came back for most of morning but just went down again. Checked my client area and there is a posted Notice that support is working on problems with boards/sites on Cloud Host service and they may be down for awhile.

Mine is back up but there are issues that I hope are just a product of the work being done. Can't edit or delete replies as an Admin. Says the content being moderated is missing.

One of my two CiC sites was down yesterday for a time but I had to go to work for a few hours and couldn't do anything about it. By the time I came home all was back to normal as near as I could tell.

This morning one of my users was reporting a firefox error (related to OCSP and SSL somehow) and I was looking at my support history I saw the notice.  Sounds like they're on the case so I trust all will be sorted in the end.

Just signed up for CiC hosted site and it's down without ever getting up :~(

Something went wrong. Please try again.

While it might be related I also  think you may see that error while any new site is first being configured to exist. Don't despair yet

To find something, anything, a great truth or a lost pair of glasses, you must first believe there will be some advantage in finding it.

I am finding so many glitches right now I may take my Board offline (if it will let me) until there is notice that the Cloud Issues have been resolved, and hope it goes back to normal.

[Venenatis]

Seems back to normal now 

[Allen Bradford]

My Board is a mess. Error after error after error across the Board functions. Waiting to hear from Support on whether I can take it offline without causing more problems.

My board (IPS Cloud) had the same problem and they had to restore from a backup snapshot so we lost 18.5 hours worth of data.  So far it hasn't happened again.  I am guessing they migrated us from Dreamhost to Amazon and that's what caused it.  Obviously Amazon is better than Dreamhost for the long term but something probably just went wrong with the migration process.  I must stress that what I just said is just pure speculation on my part.

I just went live with my board and two hours later I got this HTTP 500 error.. Did anyone know what fixes it?
