Connection ProblemsSorry, SMF was unable to connect to the database. This may be caused by the server being busy. Please try again later.
it happens all the time, no need to make a topic
The server is busy.It's not that hard to understand.
Actually, it's happening quite a bit more than usual, so I'd say it warrants a topic.I'm getting it as well, must be SMF doing the occasional forget up.
It's just an intermittent problem. It usually happens late at night for me, but this on-and-off bit is new. It seems it can't connect to the avatar database either, so it's breaking people's avatars.
Ctrl F5 helps fix this problem.
F5: RefreshCtrl + F5: Refresh HARDERthe forget
I think F5 just reloads and also retrieves the same stuff from the cache I think, while Ctrl+F5 forces Chrome to say "forget you" to the cache and retrieve the images again and store those into the cache instead of the old ones.
