Jeber Posted September 10, 2003 Share Posted September 10, 2003 It seems to be happening to a lot of us recently. Scot feels it's a problem with the IPB servers. I've found that when that happens, if you click on "refresh page", then go back to the forum you were posting to, you'll see your post made it through anyway.

zox Posted September 11, 2003 Share Posted September 11, 2003 It just happened to me for the first time but I just got white page with huge letters: CGI ErrorThe specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers. The headers it did return are:It happened when I hit reply button.I just click on back and clicked it again and it posted it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeber Posted September 11, 2003 Share Posted September 11, 2003 Yup, zox, I've had a few of those as well. "Refresh" should get you the page you were heading for, at least in my experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brucekrymow Posted September 12, 2003 Share Posted September 12, 2003 It just happened to me for the first time but I just got white page with huge letters: CGI ErrorThe specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers. The headers it did return are:I reported this months ago and was called, in so many words, off my rocker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeber Posted September 12, 2003 Share Posted September 12, 2003 Not off your rocker, brucekrymow...although you've been hanging around the forums long enough now that your sanity is no doubt in danger, if not in question. If I remember correctly, Scot was frustrated, along with you, because the problem wouldn't replicate with any frequency or predictability...thus making troubleshooting nearly impossible. And that's still the problem. I've had the errors mentioned here, too, but not frequently and I can't get them to reoccur by doing the same action twice in a row. We still think it's a problem on the IPB side...but even that seems hard to say with certainty. It could be the aliens...but why? What have we done to anger our visitors from outer space? Ghost in the machine? Maybe on some systems, but my laptop came new from the factory, so I doubt anyone has died in it. But still the errors persist. Perhaps it's head-banging time.
