Main Audiogon site barely works?


Has anyone else noticed over the past couple of days that the main Audiogon sales site seems to be on life support? It takes at least 20-30 seconds to load, and any changes in listing etc may or may not happen before the website times out. This didn't seem to be the case on Thursday but since yesterday the site has been barely useable. I'm wondering if it's just me or if there's a real server issue?

Yeah, I’ve received several weird error messages, such as: oops, 500 message, simply nothing at all, an apology note, kind of all over the place. Very strange.
I finally got back on about half an hour ago. When I exchanged emails with Tammy last night, even she couldn't get back on A'gon.
I guess the developers of this site said "let's see what happens" instead of running some staging tests before deploying to production.

People selling gear on this site just lost a couple of days of paid ad views.
Things still seem a bit 'buggy'...maybe the server inadvertently linked to a Lovecraft Country episode and got confused....
@Admin
Audiogon site is all &^* Up.   Today refreshing browser on "www.audiogon.com" had me logged in another member's account.   Database is hosed!!!
Hope nobody use my account with fraudulent activities.
Getting worse, every time refreshing browser had me login a different member's account.
With past updates, it was usually me who had a hard time getting back on. This time, when it finally came back up, I got on and continue to do so without any problems. 

Good luck and keep trying. If nothing avails, contact Tammy at admin.

All the best,

I was able to login but refreshing browser had me logged in another member's account.    This is a security breach!
Yeah, I've experienced the log off as well. This morning I was still logged on, so progress of sorts, I guess.

It does not appear that there were any new listings however - something very unusual for a Sunday morning.
I've seen no new ads over the past day or so. I just went nuts thinking my refresh stopped working and went down a rabbit hole trying to find out how to "hard refresh" Chrome on a Mac.
The migration of the site was amateur at best. The site slowing to nearly unusable, then going completely offline for some users while others were able to post new listings.
I checked http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com several times and it was offline, then back and off again.
I contacted Tammy and she told me that the site was offline, but it wasn’t. This went on for a couple of days.
I purchased an amp from someone but then couldn’t complete the payment as the site repeatedly crashed. The seller contacted me and asked me to pay them directly. I didn’t and was frustrated that the seller might re-list the amp. 3 days later I was finally able to complete my purchase.
A professional developer would have given users advance notice and then taken the site offline while posting a landing page that stated it was offline for migration/upgrade. While I did start seeing such a page it was only after the site was crippled for several days.
Very disappointing.
So are there plans to update these archaic forums ?
A vBulletin license is pretty reasonable. I built vB forums many years ago and they’re great for both the user and the administrators.


 I posted the above comment 45 minutes ago. I attempted to edit it twice, adding space between thoughts/paragraphs as we do in the English language. Sadly that's beyond the capabilities of this forum.
No new listings for three days straight for me. Plus, I was logged off again.
I'm sure glad I sold my amp a week before this all began.
@rodrigaj let support know you're still having trouble.

@ozzy62 likewise, contact support. Try clearing the cache in your browser and if you are by any chance using a VPN change it to another part of the U.S. or another country.
One of the possible explanations for no new listings is that your browser, your ISP or the DNS server you're using is delivering a cached page.

They may also be having problems with mirroring databases for the site.
It's unfortunate that there's no notice on the site yet users are still having problems.




I just found that they're using cloundfront.net, AWS and another well know CDN. Those are the most common resources these days and can be a good solution when configured correctly.
