    Hey Seph;
    I keep getting an error when I try to load pages on the forum here.

    I get get around it with a couple of refreshes but it's annoying... I've already had to write this out twice. Haha.

    Here's the error message:

    Connection Problems
    Sorry, SMF was unable to connect to the database. This may be caused by the server being busy. Please try again later.

    It happens randomly when loading new pages.

    That's good to know. I was about to post a topic like this one too, but then I saw this. Hope it gets fixed!

    Also getting this...
    An exception went uncaught! Check the log for further details.

    Error: The database could not process your request.


    And I really wanted to get Rayman 2 for my N64 emulator lol

    No, it was causing SMF to not connect to the database and the main site to pop up an uncaught exception.

    Could this be an error of RC3? o_O

    No. It had nothing to do with SMF or even RomUlation. The error was with a DNS server not hosted by us.

    You should just lock this topic since it's been resolved.

    What's with everyone's obsession with locked threads?

    So it doesn't keep getting posted in for no reason and cluttering up the page with needless posts.

    Maybe not. But if you go into the Site Support section and everything is locked you're going to be thinking we're mean and locking all support requests.
