M2:script error yan sa vBulletin. I dunno kung Apache server gamit ng Tsikot pero baka Apache-related i.e. dun sa isa sa mga modules nung server. Baka kailangan i-update na.

[badsekktor]

same problem, 2 days na din ganun

[OTEP]

Kapag iniiba ko ng konti ang title, gumagana naman.

[midinite]

nope...tried and re-typed and none yet...wonder why?

[space invader]

yup.. me too. hindi rin ako mkapag post ng new thread.. marami pa nman akong interesting topics na ipo-post..

[midinite]

same here. frustrating. wonder what the IT people are doing. are they the ones in charge of that kaya? guess that puts the concept of forum to waste.

have you heard of any other local car forums din so we can post them elsewhere?

pasensya na talaga mga tsikoteers... pero we're also trying to troubleshoot the problem....

[Flagg]

Cool lang sir midinite...

[jedi]

we'll try to close the forums later ... mga few minutes lang, then optimize namin yung database lets see kung may changes.... then afterwards test nyo na po kung smooth na ang pagpost ng new threads

[jedi]

guys... patest na lang po lalo duon sa nakaencounter ng problem kung nakakapagpost na kayo ng new threads....

post na lang po dito ng feedback

[nicolodeon]

Boss Midnite - cool ka lang. Hindi lang ang Tsikot ang nagkakaroon ng ganitong klaseng issue: marami ring iba. As for the IT people doing their jobs - please be assured that they are (Jedi, Tsikot and company). Thing is, hindi naman kayang i-predicit nung mga Admins at webmasters natin ang magiging problem. Besides, hindi lang naman Tsikot ang biz nila - marami pa.

Okay, I did some quick tests on my own. Based dun sa testing ko, eto ang mga maari nyong gawin:

1. If you connect to the Internet via LAN and your router/switch has a firewall and your have a software-based firewall like Microsoft ISA, you may experience this problem. I sad "may" kasi hindi ko naman alam ang settings ng firewall nyo. There's a solution to this: ibaba ang restrictions sa firewall or remove the firewall. PERO I'M NOT ADVISING THAT YOU DO THIS KASI IT WOULD LEAVE YOUR NETWORK AND YOUR SYSTEMS VULNERABLE.
2. If you have a firewall running on your computer on top of the firewall that you have on your network. Solution: switch off yung firewall sa laptop. Kung may firewall na kayo sa router/switch tas may firewall kayo sa server, then theoretically you can switch of yung firewall nyo. That is, kung secure talaga ang settings nyo dun sa dalawang firewall.
3. If you're a just a home user pero you have a firewall (e.g. Zone Alarm) running on top of the Windows Firewall - turn off the Windows firewall.
4. Kung naka-automatic lahat yung settings nyo sa LAN connectivity, gawin nyong absolute KUNG PWEDE or KUNG ALLOWED DYAN SA INYO. Absolute, meaning i-input nyo ang IP address, subnet mask, gateway at check nyo ang DHCP settings.

NOTE: HINDE PO TOTAL SOLUTION TONG MGA RECOMMENDATIONS KO. I LEAVE IT UP TO YOU SUSUBUKAN NYO OR HINDI. IF YOU DO, WALA PO AKONG PANANAGUTAN SA MAGIGING EPEKTO SA SYSTEMS NYO. IKA NGA, DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK.


Nga pala, dun sa tests ko - sa Microsucks, er, Microsoft Windows ko lang na-experience yung error na sinasabi nyo. It was resolved nung inayos ko ang mga security settings ng network at ng computer ko. Pero, it left the network and the computer I used vulnerable to attacks so binalik ko na lang sa dati. Pwede namang mag-post sa Tsikot sa mga 'Net cafe.

I also tested using a laptop running under Ubuntu Linux at PowerMac. Wala po akong naging problem dun sa dalawa, pero it might have something to do with the way I connected sa 'Net using this two computers - parehong rekta (hinde dumaan sa LAN/network).

Anyways, pwede naman din kayong mag-test dyan on your end sa free time. Yung inputs nyo po would help our community very much.

Peace out mga kapatid! :D
