Our forum has been extremely slow trying to bring it up.

Even using localhost on the actual server itself, bringing up the forum locally is extremely slow - literally 5 to 10 minutes to bring up a page.

Connection to the forum server computer itself has no problems and no delays.

Connection to the SQL Server 2000 itself has no problems.

Also confirmed DNS name resolution not issue - also shown by same speed bringing up forum web pages slow using localhost or 127.0.0.1 or internal ip address.

Problem appears to be with the forum database itself?

Running Windows 2003 with latest patches and SQL Server 2000 with all patches.

Latest patches were applied Saturday and system rebooted same.

I may be wrong, but  I was finding connecting slow on Thursday / Friday before the patches were applied (2 - 5 minutes to bring up), but since Saturday morning even more so (5 to 10 minutes)

I've uninstalled all applied patches that were applied on Saturday to ensure none were the cause - displaying the forum pages still extremely slow same as previous.  Preveious patches were applied last Oct 16 2005 and issues did not begin occurring till this week.

Interestingly as well, attempting to connect to this InstantASP community forum is extremely slow - literally 5 to 10 minutes to bring up any page - including regular web pages off of www.instantasp.co.uk

Is any one else experiencing this? and if so, any recommendations?

My forum is running OK but like you said InstantASP community forum is running extremely slow. It also takes me 5 to 10 minutes to bring up any page on this site.  I think it's been this way for a day or two.  It took 5 to 10 minutes to reply to your post.

Dear kwf,

We are working to fix it. Thanks for your information.

I had a similar problem that started at 2:35am on Saturday, August 26th, Eastern Time. I know this because I received an error alert e-mail every minute from that time until just recently. Now all of a sudden, my discussion board is working, and I have noticed that the Instant Forums are working much faster now.

Does my copy of Instant Forum need to check in via the Internet to make sure its license is correct? Is that why I was having a time-out issue for the past 48 hours?

Thank you,

Greg

well that is defintiely interesting - now that this InstantASP community forum is back to its normal speed, so is my forum

Hopefully, there will be a posting from InstantForum what this correlation is and why our forums are affected by their's?

Could this have anything to do with license validation back to the InstantASP website?

Possibly - InstantForum dudes haven't posted what was going on with their forum, that also appeared to affect some licensed InstantForum.NET sites.

If that is the reason, I'm quite concerned that our forum's ability to be accessible to our forum users is depandant on InstantForum's site being up.
