Unable to access CT website

Yup something badly amiss at EG HQ yesterday, but interestingly the club mag dropped thru my letter box today and i notice the following

1. not bombarded by many leaflets encouraging me to buy lots of stuff i do not need

2. very interesting Club Council Report, did not study in great depth but club seems to be doing ok

3. no mention of poor performance of the new booking system or in general of the poor performance of the web site in fact everything seemed to be smelling of roses 

4. lots and lots of info/articles/money off offers re e-bikes and the like, i think the club might be planning to expand into the e-bike business

Yes, for me, it was off all evening from around 6-7pm. “Server stopped responding”. Initially it was just the CT section but later seemed to be the whole site including bookings. I noticed people started posting again just before 10pm.

Yep, nothing at all all evening. Whole CAMC site was unavailable. Some message about u able to access the url. This was PC and iPad.

I had trouble too, android phone and tablet.

Managed to post on what you doing thread. Couldn't go back to edit appalling errors 😱.. 

Every time whatever way i tried i got a message that caravan club site taking too long to respond.......

Got on this morning and seems OK.

Must admit I wasn't too concerned as I was quite busy but every so often would try it again.  I wonder why some people weren't affected by it?

As usual for this club there doesn't seem to have been any message or communication. Mushrooms spring to mind.

I couldn't get any access last night either, and have been reading on FB complaints from others who couldn't book sites. Not very happy members!

I had the same " waiting for the CAMC " thing half an hour ago.

Strange that nobody is around when we need some IMPORTANT MAINTENANCE  doing !!

I don't like Faceache but wonder if that suffers the same as wot we does on 'ere 

Certainly Brian will go to bed soon but not as a Happy Bunny !!

I am not convinced it was the fault of the Club but more likely the servers on which the Club site is hosted given the nature of the problem. I suspect the likes of Facebook and other social media giants host their own servers as they are so large.

 C'mon David .... the site is lousy .... it's a slow as a very slow thing at the best of times .... I know of no other website that has or needs so much over night maintenance. I use forums that are run from a back bedroom that are more reliable than CT. If it is the servers, someone from the club should get off their backside & do something about it. Their IT is seemingly none existent!

David, your are always coming up with excuses why the "club's" web site, and in particular CT, has not functioned, and being a Moderator you feel you should be doing this, but even you must realise the the website is becoming a joke and is hardly fit for purpose. But they at EG will carry on regardless of all the complaints made about it...talk about ostriches!!
