I've got this two times today, and started to wonder how many online users the AAC server can handle at once?



Somewhere on the top right hand, there is a link that says something like "Try Live version of site" - or something similar. When I click that, I'm back on track...

 

I get that sometimes,maybe 1-2 times in 3 weeks.

 

We generally have less users online simultaneously after the software switchover. This may be a CloudFlare thingie but I'm just guessing here.

 

Hello,

In the old (vBulletin) there was a number of members online based on 60 minutes.
Now the number of members online is based on 30 minutes.

OK, I haven't had the error for some days now.

 

I don't have any hard numbers, but the server can handle a lot of simultaneous visitors However, sometimes there are hiccups, either on our server, or CloudFlare. When this happens, those CloudFlare Error pages show up. If the frequency increases, then it's something I will definitely look into!

OK, I'll keep an eye out for the messages.

 

What exactly does Cloud Flare do for us?

 

Lots of good stuff - https://www.cloudflare.com/overview

Most importantly it acts as a CDN - all static files (images, javascript, css) are cached on their worldwide network. This speeds up delivery of these files for everyone. It also helps take the load off our server, since requests for these files will be handled by CF.

CF ...My bad, I should have just wrote CloudFlare again!

 

OK, got ya.

 

Does CloudFlare let you "brand" those error pages so that they will appear to come from AAC? I know when I used Akamai for commercial uses, they gave me that capability.

I don't mean to imply we should do that, just professionally curious

I've never even considered that! Looking into it - it appears that they do offer customized error pages. Thanks
