Site Not Playing Up

[Abdoulaye's Twin]

Clear browser cache etc. If that doesn't work then try flushing the DNS - dunno how you do that on Apple stuff though...

how on earth will a gooner-girl keep up to date with minute-by-minute Bolton Wanderers news???

these two items that can't get the site - have they got anything in common?

[Gooner Girl]

No need to be snarky Bish, I can cope perfectly well without the forum (unlike you) Its just Keveh had asked people to point out issues and I may not be the only person having problems with an ipad so I did.

[Annoyed Grunt]

No issues for me, iPad and iPhone...

Did you try my 2 suggestions?

Can't seem to access the site on my iPad very often - says the website is down for maintenance. Works fine on home pc.

Log out on it and log back in, see if that works.

i don't think she's able to get as far as the login page!

Oh well, that's the limits of my IT know-how exhausted then.

People have made full careers with that depth of knowledge, combined with "switch it off and on again".

Don't know how to on a phone/iPad? Bizarrely if I turn the wifi off on my phone the site works again but if I have it in it just takes me to a holding page.

Sounds much like a DNS issue. See here for some suggestions to try...

I'm having the same problem with Firefox.

I have cleared the cache, cookies, history etc and am receiving the "The website is down for maintenance" error.

I have changed the website address but it keeps defaulting to:

http://www.the-wanderer.co.uk/holding.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

The problem is annoying as it works sometimes but the vast majority of the day I get the above error. I am on Google Chrome at the moment and it is OK.

What am I doing wrong?

Worth trying to flush your DNS. It may or may not be the problem, but easy to do. Assuming you're on Windows...

Start button and in the search box immediately above and type CMD. Select it when it appears in the results above.

A black window opens. Type the following ipconfig /flushdns

Keeping the spaces etc exactly as above.

Open Firefox and give it a whirl whilst keeping fingers crossed.

If this doesn't work it might be worth navigating to your temporary internet files folder and manually deleting everything in there rather than doing it through the browser.

Thanks for the suggestion AT but it hasn't worked. It appears to only be a problem on Firefox. Chrome appears to be unaffected. The same problem occurs on my desktop PC, my wife's laptop and the tablet when using Firefox.

Any other suggestions?

Got to be some sort of caching problem. You could uninstall and then install again. Not ideal, but likely to fix it...

I have Firefox and never a hint of a problem with the new server. It must be some local setting within Firefox at your end.

It has been doing it with both Firefox and Chrome tonight on the PC, laptop and tablet. Only just got on. This is really strange and very annoying.

Why am I seeing the "The website is down for maintenance" error when no one else is?

I still am occasionally on ipad and phone. They've locked us out Malc, don't like us

This is what I got when going back to home page or trying to see the forum by http://www.the-wanderer.co.uk/boards" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

You see this page because there is no Web site at this address.
What you can do:
Create domains and set up Web hosting using Parallels Plesk Control Panel.

When I click on the "Home" button the above also appears, but when I click on the "Board Index" it seems to be okay.

Missed a day and a half due to the issues above, Firefox/The website is down for maintenance/You cannot see this page because there is no Web site at this address.

Changed browser and straight in with IE, disgusting I know!

Cleared so many caches felt like a bin man, not that it made any difference. Would appreciate any insight.
