Massive Site Issues: Help?

Entire site is a disaster

Monday, July 11, 2005 by TheOtherGods | Discussion: WinCustomize Site Issues

Hey all.

What is happening with Wincustomize?

For about a week now, I cant even navigate this site... every time I come here, the entire site is "broken-up", images not showing up or loading, load times (for whatever does load, just text, mainly) is totally lagged-out, and if I'm able to even open a page for a WB skin, the image wont load at all when clicked.

The entire site is a horrible disaster, obviously the CSS used for the site isn't working (layout and large text tell that tale) and it's completely unusable! Gah!

I'm using IE6, am having no problems anywhere/any way else and have seen this happen once or twice briefly, but never last this long. I could barely get here to create this post.

Are you guys aware this is happening? And will it be fixed soon?

Dying to get some new skins!

Thanks.

Is anyone else having problems getting to Wincustomize site. Once yesterday and about half an hour ago I couldn't get to the site. I got Server Error in '/' Application. OutOfMemoryException was thrown. I haven't had any display problems, looks fine and works fine when it finally comes up. I tried WC browser, FireFox bookmark, Netscape search, Aol search, Google search, and MSN search, all with the same results. I kept changing browsers and searches for about 10 minutes and it finally came up on all of them. Is this still a problem with servers or something on my end.

Who in the world references anything by a name of dxzxewew?

Microsoft!  This is a bug in ASP.Net.  Somehow their compiled file for the website gets corrupted or deleted and thus it generates the above error.  All I have to do is edit it and resave it and it recompiles the file and all is fine.

How often do you have to do it? Just curious what hoops you are jumping through in order to solve the ASP.Net bug.

Right now its happening on a specific server and I'm having to do this once or twice a day.  We have seen the problem before but it was not nearly as frequent (once a month). 

I have a feeling that it I re-upload the whole project that it might go away but we are still testing our other server issues so I'm reluctant to make too many changes at once.

cooldreamer-you need to add Wincustomize and Stardock to your trusted sites in Zone Alarm.
