 I'm not sure if I missed a post or something but I'm unable to view the WIKI site. Is anyone else having this problem?


Thanks, Scott

I'm having the same problem. Brent seems to have locked it to administrators by mistake, I'm sure he will fix it ASAP.

Problem with the website hosting company. There have been issues for the last 12 hours. It is currently being investigated. I apologize for the inconvenience.

While Brent gets the wiki working, I've added the wiki to the menu at the main site.

There seems to be a massive failure on the server that the Wiki site (and several other of my sites) are hosted. They are restoring the server from backups as we speak. I'm NOT a happy camper today.

It must be a really massive failure because as today, I still get the same message error:

"Warning: dir(C:\Inetpub\home\bwjm.ca\subdomains\wiki\httpdocs/skins): failed to open dir: Invalid argument in C:\Inetpub\vhosts\bwjm.ca\subdomains\wiki\httpdocs\includes\Skin.php on line 23

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in C:\Inetpub\vhosts\bwjm.ca\subdomains\wiki\httpdocs\includes\Skin.php on line 26"

I don't  know the html language (or whatever programmation language is) so it's like chinese for me.  I just know that our friend Brent will have a lot of work to rebuilt his site... :-/

The Wiki site is the last remaining component (as far as I can tell) that has yet to return to service. Something broke on it and wasn't fixed by simply restoring the server. All of my other websites on that server are back in service, including some of the extra details.

Trust me, I have not forgotten about the Wiki site, and I am trying to resolve it as quickly as I can.

The Wiki site appears to be functional again. I would appreciate knowing about any problems that you may encounter over the next couple of days.

Thanks!

I'm getting (as of June 26) the error:

Warning: dir(C:\Inetpub\home\bwjm.ca\subdomains\wiki\httpdocs/skins): failed to open dir: Invalid argument in C:\Inetpub\vhosts\bwjm.ca\subdomains\wiki\httpdocs\includes\Skin.php on line 23

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in C:\Inetpub\vhosts\bwjm.ca\subdomains\wiki\httpdocs\includes\Skin.php on line 26

Anyone else?

John

As far as I know, it's been up solid for the last several days, and is still up. Try emptying your cache. That looks like an error that was up a week ago.

Is it just me or are the Wiki high/low lists currently unavailable?

All I get is the description of what the lists are about, but no lists. It has been working fine for me until today.

Sorry nvm. Just cleaned my cache and internet cookies, and I'm up and running again.


Just went through WIKI and noticed on the $20 high/low the CBN is only listing EYG.

I noticed the same problem yesterday but all good now.

BTW:  Is there a little trick I need to know to be able to print the WIKI high/low lists, complete with tidy rows/columns and pretty colours.    I seem to only get and expanded black&white table.

thanks

  If there is a way it's unknown to me. Some pages are quite small while others seem to take up the entire sheet.  Maybe Brent can help?

OK, a couple of issues discussed, so let me attempt to address them one by one.

As others mentioned, the site appears to be functioning properly with no known issues.

The lists have not been altered, and the complete list is showing on my screen. I would suggest trying again.

I've never tried printing the lists, but it is quick and easy to see what you're talking about. I do not have a solution to this. The pieces that seem to make it so ugly are the prefix links. They are being written out in full, which stretches the entire table to well beyond the margins of the page. Also, when you attempt to print the page, it creates a "printable version" which is stripped of colours and more importantly, all the header/footer/sidebar information. Regretably, I do not have a fix for this stuff.

The Wiki site hasn't worked for me for weeks. All I can get is the 2005 $10.

It's not working well for me either. I can only get partial listings.

I tried to visualize many listings and I didn't noticed any problems.  It's quick and complete

I'm not sure about the efficency of the measure, but if those of which have problems to acceess to the site or the listings, maybe it would be good to flush down all the cookies about the wiki site and empty the MS Explorer's cache.  There is possibly some corrupted cookie or  kind of strange file necessary to access to this site... :-/

Got it working, but only in Netscape. Still won't work in Explorer.
