Title: Permanently broken? Show new replies to your posts. (unreadreplies)
Post by: Richard Crowley on October 01, 2014, 02:28:16 am

So, is the feature "Show new replies to your posts." permanently broken now?
For the last day or two, when I click on that link to go to: https://www.eevblog.com/forum/unreadreplies/ (https://www.eevblog.com/forum/unreadreplies/)
I am seeing nothing but:

504 - Gateway Timeout
We are sorry for the inconvenience that this error may be causing you. We are aware of the issue and are working to resolve it, please be patient.

There is no need to report this error.

Thank you for your patience,
Dave & gnif

Is this fallout from the recent reconfiguration with CloudFlare?

Works for me, or at least seems to.

That's a combination of a "legit" 504, and reload policies in your local friendly browser. Next time you can try  something like https://www.eevblog.com/forum/unreadreplies/?reloadthe=pagealready (https://www.eevblog.com/forum/unreadreplies/?reloadthe=pagealready)

I sometimes get the same issue (fairly frequent lately), and the above tends to work around it. Provided the server has moved past it's 504 cries for attention of course.

It seems that the EEVBlog server is having a problem or two. In addition to the new replies issue I have sometimes been unable to log on, getting the same 504 error.

A CTRL-F5 shifted it for me, it obviously likes to hang around in caches.
