CCF website

coxspau · July 23, 2013, 04:33:40 PM

Is anyone else having trouble accessing the CCF website?

I keep getting the page error:

Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a000d'

Type mismatch: '[string: "87, 10.245.210.254"]'

/forum/inc_ipgate.asp, line 360

I can't get in touch with a member of CCF to report the error...because I keep getting the error.

Appreciate any assistance.

Must be something wrong your end.

Ni, I check it every day and, sometimes, a little slow loading but; that's all.

There's the problem right there. But I won't say any more, lest I get spanked by Mark again.

Oh geez where do I start. We have 2 apple devices an ipad 1 and a Mac mini server. Well the Ipad is sort of fantastic but since we had a blackout a few weeks ago the Mac Server is cactus. Mark has been to the Mac repair shop nothing short of 3 times and apparently it now doesn't like the mouse or keyboard it's plugged into, talk about touchie. We have spent so much time with the piece of c**p I suggested throwing it under a bus. It has forum backups on it so if we cannot get into it to even reformat it we can't even sell it!!

Ugh! I hate power spikes. Lost a few bits and pieces over the years myself, most notably the only drive able to read my archives. And yeah, I had a UPS... the storm killed that too.

Just how fritzed is it? Does it boot? Can you remote into it? Can you mount it on another machine? There are lots of recovery options, and I may be able to get you some help if you need it. Sadly my very friendly contact at Apple moved on to greener pastures.. She would have had no problem sending you a new motherboard.

It boots sometimes. It gets to the GUI sometime. It let's me log in sometimes. The Apple shop replaced a HDD in it which fixed exactly nothing other than boosting their bank balance. They swore it worked properly twice and twice when I got it home it didn't. Liars.

Anyway I've reformatted the disks and installed Ubuntu on it and it seems to be running ok for now. I've lost confidence in it though and I'll most likely end up binning it.

The new Apple store or Next Byte? The HD was probably the only thing not flaky, and Apple would/should have known better. Their retailers, however.. well, how can I say this politely?

Anyway, so as to not totally hijack this thread, PM me if you want a hand.

It's ok. Problem was most likely the OS as Ubuntu is working ok. The repair place is an accredited Apple shop here in Adelaide. Useless idiots. Just need to get the RAID going and I'm done.

Absolutely no argument from me on that score. I've only ever met maybe three guys with any clue whatsoever.
