Default We are working on TOTV performance

Your administrators have hired a nationally acclaimed IT technician to work on the performance of Talk of The Villages. He began his work Monday night and it should continue for the next few days.

I have personally noticed a dramatic increase in the speed with which the pages load. It should get even better when he is finished. There could be, from time to time, a few down moments while he works his magic. In any event, we hope that the recent outages are a thing of the past.

The complication that forced this upgrade is a good one. As many as 25 new members every day on TOTV and over 400 computers logged on at any given time.

Thanks for all your efforts. I remember when having 100 people online was a busy day.

TH.... Just an FYI. I have been getting periodic Database Errors this morning, while trying to access TOTV. A refresh normally gets me in, but thought you might want to know. First time I've every had this error with TOTV.

Not sure if anyone else is experiencing this issue....

Default Doubt you do not already know this but.....

I am seeing quite a few of these, which I assume you know and it is expected, but I hate to assume.
Database error
The database has encountered a problem.
________________________________________
Please try the following:
• Load the page again by clicking the Refresh button in your web browser.
• Open the talkofthevillages.com home page, then try to open another page.
• Click the Back button to try another link.

The talkofthevillages.com forum technical staff have been notified of the error, though you may contact them if the problem persists.


We apologise for any inconvenience.

Mike and aj - Same thing here. I'm also getting dropped - having to log in again frequently.

Admins - Certainly not complaining by any stretch! Just passing along info as FYI.

Thanks again for your efforts -
Bill

Yes, the pages are loading much faster-- virtually instantly! Thanks, and congratulations on the reason for the need.
