    Won't log in

    Can I assume that you've been doing some server maintenance lately? Through most of the weekend the login screen either did not recognize my username, or did not recognize my password (after many attempts). And yes, I do know how to spell my username and password. Caplock is not on, nor is the other language keyboard (I thought of that).

    I'm logged in now, I guess that's all that matters.
    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

      I was getting a message that server was not found; using an IPAD.

          There was some database maintenance going on at various times over the weekend, some of which was processor intensive so there may have been a few periods of slow server response and there were about 12 hours of hard outage on Monday morning relating to an accounting issue, other than that everything seemed to work for me.

              Didn't you put an announcement out last week that it might be down over the weekend for database maintenance?

                  Yes, sort of, but not really. I did end up running a process that looks for and deletes duplicate posts which was an occasional byproduct of our old system and server. It's a process I hadden't run in years because our old server couldn't handle it but now, with over 900k posts, it took a lot longer than I expected.

                      One thing that I had noticed in the past. If I got an error posting a comment. I would reopen the same thread in another tab, more often than not the comment would be there. If I didn't do that I often ended up with a double post or a notification that i was about to post twice.

                          I think you just have to be patient, you hit comment once, then duplicate the tab and it will open up another page with your comment without having to wait too long.
