Just for info, the .org was unavailable to me for most of yesterday (30.7.25).  Error message was that the .org was "unavailable to process my request". Reloaded saved home page from my favourites, no change.  Was only able to refresh and see the usual page this morning 31.7.25

Thanks all I've been trying to track down the cause. It appears to have resolved but may go up down again. Let's see.

From memory Vlad it was a HTTP 500 error showing. If that's any help.

Yeah it was, and I know what it could be in THEORY but in practice none of it makes sense :)

edit:  It was a PHP call requiring a different version of PHP which has now been adjusted so error should be properly fixed.

Until next time :rofl2:

Such things makes me glad the small forum I run has updates all done automatically by the hosting so it's not my issue.

Mind you we had about 6hrs off-line the day before this place did as their entire european hosting infrastructure went tits up...
