Title: I keep getting "Database Errors" in PM
Post by: pokeplayer984 on January 06, 2011, 11:37:15 PM

For some reason, I keep getting a page that just says "Database Error" whenever I'm trying to access a PM that was recently sent to me by one of the members.  What exactly is going on here anyways?

It's on Invision's end.  Most likely server overload.  The database can only handle so many queries per second and the limit has probably been reached.  It happens quite frequently on large popular forums with 100k+ members.  We're not that large, but there are thousands - maybe even tens of thousands of different forums on the z7 server.

Wow. so I'm not the only one out there, that's a relief.

I was trying to send a message to flipperboidskua about Sierra, but I got the same"database error"message, too.

I hope this problem can be corrected. It sucks not being able to send messages.
