Yeah this is the message I get whenever I post... seems to be occasionally too... not every time I post actually.

I've done some optimizing/repairing, so hopefully these problems will be history. But if you find this happening again, folks, let us know and we'll investigate further.

Will do! = )

Just got the same error I described again. It doesn't seem to be all the time. But it does seem to not have been affected by the database optimizations and such.

Weird. I never see this, and I access the forums from a totally separate ISP in another state (consider the distance from Virginia to Arziona) and it means a number of hops from HostICan's backbone providers and my cable modem.

What's your location (city is fine) and ISP?

I'm not saying it's your problem. vBulletin databases can, as our friend Sammy Leong tells us in these boards, notoriously flaky.

I've gotten this from home and work. Home is FiOS, work is a government connection.

I live right outside of D.C.

Apparently other people are seeing it.

Maybe check the cgi logs?

I have just had the same error, for me it's only on new posts, and depending on how long it takes me to type the post.

Those of you who are having those problems, can you tell us what state you're in (or city/country) and the name of your ISP.

Just curious.

Just tested creating a new topic and I also received the error in VB.
