Might have been a fluke... Try again? We've been running some fairly heavy tests on the server.

The server monkeys made a horrible and unrecoverable mistake...

Undefined subroutine &XWA::User::Post::main called at (eval 62) line 1.

Found the cause for this - installation problem. Not yet fixed, but shouldn't be to hard. I'll let you know when this is handled, thanks for the report!

Should be permanently fixed now!

Notice that we currently run with 5 backends. So if you get an error 1 of 5 times (or other patterns), it's likely to be a system installation problem. All backends should ideally be 100% equal - I hope they are now, but Murphys law may still strike back.

If I log in to the live forums, I get logged out of the beta forums (and vice versa). What gives?

I think that's brilliant.. so we don't get confused..

Which colour pill was it again.. Blue.. I think I took that one; red ?

It is a big pain if you want to test the beta site but also be active on the live forums.

I think I agree and have now changed the cookie domain on the test site, seems to work but not 100% sure yet.

Hope it doesn't make too much confusion, but if it does let us know tomorrow.

In any case be careful to check the address bar whenever you post on the beta site, to make sure it has not been redirected to the live server.

And thanks for all the help, so far so good

I'm testing uploading my skin on beta-my.opera. I get the same 500 Internal Server Error as in the current community.

Yep, fixed.

Why dosn't the beta site work anymore?

Because they already made the switch.
