Maybe it's that bug where no one can post. It's awfully inconvenient.

I get it too when I first try to get on Bungie.net, then it goes away after about 5-10 minutes.

I don't remember seeing a news post about it...

It's probably just a bug being encountered. Hopefully it will soon be fixed.

Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.

I got it for about 5 minutes earlier. I just went to a different site and came back after it was gone.

I'm guessing the were upgrading or fixing a bug...But yes, the forums and PM system were down for all of us.

The forums were disabled (as well sa PMing) and now every other time I click on a link it says SERVICE UNAAVAILABLE . I guess they'll have it fixed soon.

About an hour and a half ago, B.net was under maintenance, so I suppose certain things had to be upgraded, fixed, etc.

Ach! Was ist los?

I'm still getting errors, but they disappear if I refresh a few times.

Maybe a server's acting up?

  • 07.18.2006 8:06 AM PDT

MY XBOX DIED THAT'S WHY.

me too.

  • 07.18.2006 8:19 AM PDT

The site has been FUBAR for me up until about 2 minutes ago. It seems to be running like normal now.

*knocks on wood*

Edit: Knocking on wood never works...

It's been way crazy for me. And when it actually works, it looks all crazy. CF was in Default theme. Anyone with an Emblem for an Avie, i can't see it. I get the cache error where b.net looks like it exploded a lot. yeah.

You people have just sent my sides into orbit. A bunch of MLG try hards sucking the dick of some supposed pro half the thread hasn't even heard of. Classic.

I have to keep refreshing about 5 times everytime I go to another forum. Can somebody get Frankie out of the server closet????

Could be any number of bugs or possibly a hot fix for one or more, but we'll have to let Achronos speak for that. Another thing, the site could just be busy with multiple users attempt to content in a short period of time, thusly prompting the error.

The "Service Unavailable" happens when a server in the web cluster crashes for some reaons. There is a bug that I'm trying to track down that occassionally causes the crash. Unfortunately, after a few crashes, a server sometimes gives up, resulting in that "service unavailable" message.

This morning it was especially bad, but that was because all of our servers (web, sql, web service, app, etc.) were being patched with the latest security updates. Well, technically, they were patched yesterday, but they needed to be rebooted today. Generally, it goes quickly, but every so often there are problems and the built in redundancies are not enough to keep you from seeing an error.

So it was an update and a crash.

Can you tell us what got updated?

Site and/or server security.

Nothing changed - it was just an OS patch. You know those monthly security updates Microsoft does? That's what happened this morning.

I see. Thanks for explaining that.

(Runs off to check for uninstalled critical fixes.)
