tiger1962 Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Yikes!!! This must be intermittent or you wouldn't have been able to create this thread, so stupid question #2 is: have you tried deleting your browser history, then clearing your browser cache (by pressing Ctrl+F5)?

CRJ_simpilot Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Didn't have a problem all night or this morning here. Try flushing the DNS cache. OOM errors? Read this. What the squawk? An awesome weather website with oodles of Info. and options. Wile E. Coyote would be impressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColR1948 Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 (edited) Same here, it's taking ages to load a page, just getting the blue circle, I've rebooted the modem etc, other sites are loading very quick, just this one is slow. Same screenshot as MrZippy. Edited December 9, 2018 by ColR1948 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happens on every click on this site. It lasts for about 30 seconds. Other sites, AVSIM, SOH all work fine. This site was fine earlier this morning. Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer!

This site was fine earlier this morning. Very strange... I notice you're using Firefox and Col is using Chrome, like me, yet I'm not having any problems and neither is CRJ. Could it be due to an Internet Security update? I'm currently using Microsoft Security Essentials with Windows Firewall and Windows Defender 'cos I'm cheap but I don't visit any naughty websites... :o Edited December 9, 2018 by tiger1962 Tim Wright "The older I get, the better I was..."

No updates for Firefox either, which I run in "safe mode". Norton Security suite is the protection. For me, Flightsim.com has always been the "problem child". Thank Gawd I'm not the only one. This guy is seeing the same thing! https://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/showthread.php?314298-Error-522-dl2&p=2066283#post2066283 Edited December 9, 2018 by mrzippy Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer!

copperpen Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 The reason is Cloudflare. It sits between you and Flightsim and decides if you get a connection or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DominicS Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 For what it's worth; I've been using use the site on and off all day and haven't encountered any issues :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 I have a forum that uses this same forum software. Sometimes the same thing happens there, then after a short time, it works itself out. Not sure if that's what's going on here, but that would be my guess. Sometimes the Interwebs just get in a mood. Prepar3d v4: HP Omen Desktop.

PhantomTweak Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Yep, just came on and now all is normal again! :D Well, Zip, we both know that "normal" really doesn't apply in your case... :p ;) :cool: Sorry, I just couldn't resist. :D Pat☺ [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Had a thought...then there was the smell of something burning, and sparks, and then a big fire, and then the lights went out! I guess I better not do that again! Sgt, USMC, 10 years proud service, Inactive reserve now :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest me1900 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Please be reminded that intermittent problems like this are tricky. Just because a few don't have issues doesn't mean other's don't have issues. That's partly why the term 'intermittent' is used. Difficult problem to trace down. Never rule out a server problem just because you don't see a problem on your end. This morning i been trying to download https://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/fslib.php?searchid=67933615 After I press the I Accept button I get a 404 NOT FOUND The requested URL /download.php was not found on this server. I really need this base pack to install United Express AI traffic into FS2004. If anyone knows where else to download this file (AVSIM DOES NOT have it) FS2004 ATR 42-300 Base Pack osp_atr_42_300_base.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSMR Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 NO issues with Fourm but the download library is total kaput. Hoping is just a glitchy glitch... https://fshub.io/airline/RUA/overview Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest me1900 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Sorry, try here: http://www.skycolors.com/ai_aircraft_models_list_fsx_fs2004.htm That site links back to flightsim.com Thats where I found out flightsim.com library has it after referencing a re-paint's readme file. That site is only linking to flightsim.com and avsim library. I've looked for hours on google and duck duck go search engines and even requested that basepack at AIG forums in which they told me that this base pack is only at flightsim.com and they wont supply it.
