Over the past two days, it seems that the site has been going through a LOT of 504 Gateway Time-out and "The connection has reset" errors, making it almost impossible to do anything on either the site or here on the forum.
I'm not sure if there's a specific reason behind it but it's incredibly frustrating because it's happening multiple times per minute, so pretty frequently, rendering my ability to do simple things like just feeding/warming Pokemon and eggs in my party extremely difficult. There are moments when it's clear for a good minute or two, then it's back to erroring. |

I'm experiencing the same problems. A lot of errors and lost connections (to the site)...

There are moments when it's clear for a good minute or two, then it's back to erroring. Oh my gosh, I was just about to post something on this when I saw your post. I'm here a lot, and everything was fine for me until today, now I'm just getting errors like crazy. I'm on the most current version of Google Chrome, never had a major problem with errors like this before. The ones I'm getting are a 504 Gateway timeout error, a No data received error, that reads; Unable to load the webpage because the server sent no data. with some text underneath the says "Error code: ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE". And I'll also have the page load very funny sometimes when it does load, with the page really out of format. I'm trying to do the Scavenger Hunt and Poke Hunt, and it's pretty much impossible right now to do ether. I'm so glad to know it isn't just me. I was starting to think something was screwy on my browser, lol. x.x -------------------- |

Yeah, I'm also hitting it bad. Yesterday it was mostly slowdown, today I've been lucky to even access anything - and I usually hit a disconnect shortly after.
Clearly something's up with the server, I've run external ping tests through sites like IIDRN and they're showing server down messages frequently. -------------------- Currently playing: ?? (Will return to finish Leaf Green soon.)

Seems like it might be getting better, I'm on to clicking and so far it's alright.

This isn't a new problem; it's been happening off and on for the past few months. It's better now than it used to be, earlier this summer the server had lots of issues.
I think part of it may have something to do with an incident this summer where people were redirected to an adult website. I'm not sure if they ever figured out why, but it could have been malware installed on the server using an ad, and that could have had lasting effects on server stability. I think many of these 504's have been happening since then, or at least they've been more common. I rarely had any problems before then, at least. There was also an issue where server updates caused the site backup to not function properly, so its possible an update may have compromised stability too. But I'm not a mod, so I don't know what the actual problem is. It could be something as simple as too many connections shutting the server down for short time periods. I had a problem a few days ago where the "Loaded in ____ms" thing at the very bottom of the page said 127,000ms. -------------------- |

I haven't had a whole lot of 504's, really only two or three each since I got home from school today at 3:00. Could it also be that they're installing something new, like the SWSH reward? I'm not sure if that would have anything to do with it, but it's an idea, I guess. -------------------- Light is a spectrum. Why limit yourself to a single hue?

It's possible, but coding in new features for the website is (usually) different from installing things on the server, so I doubt the coding in of a new feature like the SWSH reward would have much of an effect on the server itself.

Aaaand they're back again today. Hopefully this can be figured out and fixed.
*edit* The site went down completely for a couple minutes there. Would really like to know what's going on. This post has been edited by Burichu: Oct 22 2014, 03:44 PM |

Yep, they sure are. It took me forever just to get to this to post about them.

Same issue. My poor egg hasn't gained any maturity either and I need it to so I can use it for the scavenger hunt! Really hope it's not that malware issue again, just some server hiccups.

I think it has to do with the number of users online.
I mean, all day it's around 150~250, but this past hour there has been a lot of 504's, and the number of users online kept increasing (300, 400, max I've seen is 565). Now it's starting to go down again and there is less lag. I think I noticed the same thing every time there was lag. But I don't know why there are a lot of people online at this hour, all at once, and why it decreases rapidly too. -------------------- GO GO POKEMON RANGERS I took over the group, come and join us ! - Banner by Doctor Octopus Affiliates : Azurite Knights - Malachite Mages - Shiny Lovers - The Networking Ninjas - The Postal Service - Banner by eevee64 Made by Cycloneblaze |

Bah, it won't let me quote for some reason. But yes, I noticed that too and thought it kind of odd. Is there really that many people online all of a sudden? Or is it something else? Very strange...

I thought I was the only one!
I couldn't even get on the site entirely a few minutes ago. I hope it doesn't happen again the second I pick a great egg from the shelter. |

Yeah I find that odd too. In one hour the number of users did this : 250 online -> 550 online -> 250 online (roughly). Is that not weird ? -------------------- GO GO POKEMON RANGERS I took over the group, come and join us ! - Banner by Doctor Octopus Affiliates : Azurite Knights - Malachite Mages - Shiny Lovers - The Networking Ninjas - The Postal Service - Banner by eevee64 Made by Cycloneblaze |

I've only recently come back to GPX, so I'm clueless as to any recent happenings with the servers.
It does seem to spike the worst in the US afternoon hours, game is nearly unplayable at times - and then it calms down later on. I'd suspect it was more an issue with their host than anything. No idea why users online are spiking though. -------------------- Currently playing: ?? (Will return to finish Leaf Green soon.)

I hope it's not something like a bot that makes like 250 accounts all at once which exist for a few minutes before being deleted. It's doubtful, but who knows.

Happening every second or third page now :/
Seems to be tied to the number of people online. Slows down around 300 and goes haywire by 350. -------------------- Inactive but still drop by sometimes. Best contact is @Cajun#5683 on Discord.
