Occasional outages still occuring

Recommended Posts

James - just an FYI for you - I still get connection issues with the site. There's no set time when it happens, it just tries to connect and then gives up. I am using Firefox 2.0.0.4.

Hello,

 

Just heard back from my IT guys checking the server configurations... there seems to be nothing wrong with our server. Can you try flushing your dns on CMD?

 

 

Go to Start > Run> CMD and type "ipconfig /flushdns".

It's gotten so bad, I may have to leave the site for good. I have been trying to get on all day, and only now can connect. No other forum, or site in general, does this.

 

And it all started after the last update...............

Yes....still a major problem here in New York State.

 

Here is a possible work around that I have tried that seems to function most of the time....

 

a)Open your browser to some other site.

b)click on a link in this other site.

c)Then try opening traderslaboratory.com

 

 

This usually works for me. But its a pain.

There clearly is a problem with getting into the server.

James - I suggest you tell your programmer to fix the issue and soon. If Pivot and others leave, this site will die quickly. There is obviously something wrong here, regardless of what he is telling you.

Happened again tonight.

 

Here's what I see on Firefox if it's any help:

 

attachment.php?attachmentid=1994&stc=1&d=1184294310

 

Curious, when this happens with Firefox, do you notice it with IE?

Just a FYI

Hello,

 

I personally too have never had any difficulties viewing the site from multiple pc's across the Tokyo area. The IT guy had mentioned that it could be the some IP locations need updating.

 

Here is the exact answer today:

 

"Thanks for your email. As for the site access, no it has no relation to the skin as the skin is not set to public view yet and if it had a relation to the database, it will show a database error but visitors will be still able to access the site, even the error page. What I think is that it's a proxy problem from some users' ISPs as you have changed the server and it takes sometimes for ISPs who are using proxys to reflect the site all the time in a right way."

 

Hopefully things will run smoother after the end of this week? I have some ppl over at the hosting company investigating into the situation so will let you know shortly. My apologies for the inconvenience. One note.... have you all tried flushing your DNS?

 

Regarding the database errors, that was a temporary restart on our mysql database. The guys over at my hosting company needed to restart the database for investigation reasons.

Just checking to see if anyone is experiencing any problems still? If so, please let me know the area where you are connecting from. So far I am aware of the NY area having connections problem.

For those of you who are still experiencing server not found errors, I would like to further investigate this issue. On our side, we have reinstalled a different firewall for our server and had about 4 IT guys take a good look at the server. We have found nothing wrong with the server at this moment.

 

In order for us to investigate we need the following information.

 

1. Location

2. Tracerts

3. IP Address (I have this information on me but please send me your IP if you are connecting from several locations)

 

Please pm me with this information so I can have a seperate network team investigate the issue. Our guess at the moment is some kind of network problem as this problem seems to be limited to several locations only.

 

A Tracert can be obtained through sites like here: http://tracert.com/

Thanks brownsfan, looking into it now. I am considering switching servers at the end of the month. My current hosting company are unable to solve this problem which is unacceptable. Ill let you know in a few hours.

In my experience with IT guys, that may be the best way to go. I've NEVER seen a site be so sporadic as TL has become since the 'upgrade'. It's not your fault, these IT guys just make me laugh sometimes.

Hi Walter, I have sent your info as well. My apologies and thank you all for your patience. I have officially decided to ditch my server company. For those who are interested, dont ever go with http://v2.hivelocity.net/. They are the worst server company I have ever encountered. The only reason why I wanted to stick with it is because I have a pretty solid server at the moment and the whole process of moving can be a pain in the butt.

 

I will begin the process of finding a new host. I hope to have a new server up and running by the end of the week. Thanks.

I sincerely hope you've made backups of your server elsewhere.

 

After reading your public proclamation, don't be surprised if your soon-to-be-former hosting company has an "unrecoverable data crash" :confused:

 

Just a word to the wise...

Update: We have started our new server switch. (wow that was fast!)

 

We are upgrading to a managed dedicated server this way I dont have to kill myself trying to figure out what went wrong. The process will take roughly 3-4 days I think. After moving my server twice and screwing it up twice.. I have a better idea of what to do now. Hopefully there will be minimum downtime through this process. Thanks

James - I could not get to TL most of Monday and finally just gave up.

 

Hopefully the server switch will fix that!

 

Yes most likely it will. I am switching as we speak. Please give me up to 3 days until we complete the move.

    • Agreed since some of the new traders usually lose money in start and some loses more while chasing their lost money and eventually ends up blaming to their brokers part.
    • The crypto market are also in phase of maturing like the forex and other trading assets so we can do much more accurate analysis than before since early days it was purely a luck if the investments in crypto bears results because most of the coins or tokens never come to fruition. Some early birds were also able to make profits on these tokens or coins. e,g., like turtle coin starts with 1 satoshi and go up to 7 sathoshis, quite good rewards. another token lmgx now hovering at 10 started from 1, 
    • How's about other crypto exchanges? Are all they banned in your country or only Binance?
    • Be careful who you blame.   I can tell you one thing for sure.   Effective traders don’t blame others when things start to go wrong.   You can hang onto your tendency to play the victim, or the martyr… but if you want to achieve in trading, you have to be prepared to take responsibility.   People assign reasons to outcomes, whether based on internal or external factors.   When traders face losses, it's common for them to blame bad luck, poor advice, or other external factors, rather than reflecting on their own personal attributes like arrogance, fear, or greed.   This is a challenging lesson to grasp in your trading journey, but one that holds immense value.   This is called attribution theory. Taking responsibility for your actions is the key to improving your trading skills. Pause and ask yourself - What role did I play in my financial decisions?   After all, you were the one who listened to that source, and decided to act on that trade based on the rumour. Attributing results solely to external circumstances is what is known as having an ‘external locus of control’.   It's a concept coined by psychologist Julian Rotter in 1954. A trader with an external locus of control might say, "I made a profit because the markets are currently favourable."   Instead, strive to develop an "internal locus of control" and take ownership of your actions.   Assume that all trading results are within your realm of responsibility and actively seek ways to improve your own behaviour.   This is the fastest route to enhancing your trading abilities. A trader with an internal locus of control might proudly state, "My equity curve is rising because I am a disciplined trader who faithfully follows my trading plan."

    • SELF IMPROVEMENT.   The whole self-help industry began when Dale Carnegie published How to Win Friends and Influence People in 1936. Then came other classics like Think And Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill, Awaken the Giant Within by Tony Robbins toward the end of the century.   Today, teaching people how to improve themselves is a business. A pure ruthless business where some people sell utter bullshit.   There are broke Instagrammers and YouTubers with literally no solid background teaching men how to be attractive to women, how to begin a start-up, how to become successful — most of these guys speaking nothing more than hollow motivational words and cliche stuff. They waste your time. Some of these people who present themselves as hugely successful also give talks and write books.   There are so many books on financial advice, self-improvement, love, etc and some people actually try to read them. They are a waste of time, mostly.   When you start reading a dozen books on finance you realize that they all say the same stuff.   You are not going to live forever in the learning phase. Don't procrastinate by reading bull-shit or the same good knowledge in 10 books. What we ought to do is choose wisely.   Yes. A good book can change your life, given you do what it asks you to do.   All the books I have named up to now are worthy of reading. Tim Ferriss, Simon Sinek, Robert Greene — these guys are worthy of reading. These guys teach what others don't. Their books are unique and actually, come from relevant and successful people.   When Richard Branson writes a book about entrepreneurship, go read it. Every line in that book is said by one of the greatest entrepreneurs of our time.   When a Chinese millionaire( he claims to be) Youtuber who releases a video titled “Why reading books keeps you broke” and a year later another one “My recommendation of books for grand success” you should be wise to tell him to jump from Victoria Falls.   These self-improvement gurus sell you delusions.   They say they have those little tricks that only they know that if you use, everything in your life will be perfect. Those little tricks. We are just “making of a to-do-list before sleeping” away from becoming the next Bill Gates.   There are no little tricks.   There is no success-mantra.   Self-improvement is a trap for 99% of the people. You can't do that unless you are very, very strong.   If you are looking for easy ways, you will only keep wasting your time forgetting that your time on this planet is limited, as alive humans that is.   Also, I feel that people who claim to read like a book a day or promote it are idiots. You retain nothing. When you do read a good book, you read slow, sometimes a whole paragraph, again and again, dwelling on it, trying to internalize its knowledge. You try to understand. You think. It takes time.   It's better to read a good book 10 times than 1000 stupid ones.   So be choosy. Read from the guys who actually know something, not some wannabe ‘influencers’.   Edit: Think And Grow Rich was written as a result of a project assigned to Napoleon Hill by Andrew Carnegie(the 2nd richest man in recent history). He was asked to study the most successful people on the planet and document which characteristics made them great. He did extensive work in studying hundreds of the most successful people of that time. The result was that little book.   Nowadays some people just study Instagram algorithms and think of themselves as a Dale Carnegie or Anthony Robbins.
