Support NeoGAF

[Danthrax]

I just downloaded a great add-on for Firefox called User Agent Switcher: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/user-agent-switcher/

Once installed, you just go up to Tools > User Agent Switcher and click iPhone 3.0, then go to m.neogaf.com and it works fine. Even has me logged in already.

I just might get used to using GAF on my laptop like this, haha

 

[Tempy]

Same issue. Guess I forgot to extend NeoGAF Gold.

 

[Skii]

I love how none of the admins are even acknowledging this is a problem. Has anyone messaged them?

 

[_woLf]

I hit it on mobile whenever I try to view someone's profile.

 

[Orbis]

Certainly is an odd one, I've still not been able to replicate the issue. On Windows I've tried Chrome and IE, on Linux I've tried Chromium and Firefox, and on Android I've tried Chrome and it works everywhere just fine. Could it be a location thing? I'm UK.

 

[Menitta]

I got the same issue on Chrome. I'm guessing this doesn't happen often. I can't imagine it wouldn't be back up soon.

 

[Sir Abacus]

Same problem here. Happens I guess.

 

[Mithos]

I have to use agent switcher too, to access NeoGAF through mobilesite to access it (Sweden).

 

[JLG-]

Having the same issue on desktop here.

I thought it was location based too but I know a guy WITH the issue in the UK and another guy WITHOUT the issue, also from the UK.

No issues here, Belgium.

 

[Sanche55]

Same problem here with Chrome and Firefox.
Chrome mobile works for me.

 

[Kalentan]

Do we have any idea when this maybe fixed?

 

[ShutterMunster]

Same issue for me on desktop AND mobile via my wifi network. When I switch to LTE on my phone the site runs fine. Bizarre.

 

[How About No]

no more memes for you

Nooo the memecache

Fortunately my GAF memes are safe and moist

 

[_woLf]

I'm getting this error on the front page on mobile now. If I have a link directly to a thread I can still browse though.

 

[The Dutch Slayer]

Super weird been like this all day.
I can only view on my phone desktop version still broken.
Firefox and chrone windows desktop Europe

 

[lunarworks]

If this keeps up much longer EvilLore won't be able to afford that ivory back scratcher.

 

[phaze]

Same issue here.

Even this agent switcher thing doesn't seem to help.

 

[Chezzymann]

Happening to me too.

 

[MrCunningham]

I think this might be a regional issue. I can't connect through my phone or any of my browsers. The only way I can get access is by using a web proxy in Chrome, which is not exactly the safest thing to do.

 

[SoilBreak]

Same issue here.

Even this agent switcher thing doesn't seem to help.

Same problem.

 

[Chittagong]

Same error for me too. Haven't been able to access NeoGAF on my iPhone over 3G/4G all day. iPad Pro over wifi seems to work fine. London here.

 

[Occam]

Same error all day, only the mobile version works.

Crazy idea: has anyone pm'd an admin?

 

[Ark]

Same error on desktop all day. I assumed GAF was being ddos'd or something until I just tried it on my phone.

Mobile working but desktop isn't

 

[SpideySenses]

In the UK, have the same issue on the desktop site.

 

[Joyful]

still brokes

 

[Sodding_Gamer]

Hasn't been working all day for me on pc, on chrome. UK here.

 

[AcademicSaucer]

Not the memcache.

 

[KINGofCRA5H]

Desktop chrome not working

Mobile chrome working

 

[Zafir]

Working fine for me on Chrome in the UK.

 

[la_briola]

cross post from the other thread

I get this error with Deutsche Telekom ISP (Germany).
When I use a vpn/proxy it works...

Every browser I tested shows something like this:

Fatal error: Unable to connect to memcache server in [path]/includes/class_datastore.php on line 224

 

[Mechazawa]

Running into the exact same issue. Desktop version doesn't work on any browser.

 

[bomblord1]

Get the error unless I run through a VPN.

If I use a VPN to my school I can access the desktop site from the same PC

 

[shira]

The Opera Dev browser works for me, but only using the VPN (Germany)

http://www.opera.com/developer

It's free if anyone wants it

 

[Line_HTX]

I haven't been able to use desktop GAF for roughly the past 12 hours or so. Only posting on mobile.

So frustrating...

=/

 

[Htown]

so I can't get to GAF on desktop

I get the same error when I connect to GAF over wifi on my phone too, but not when I use the 4G connection.

ISP problem? Using Xfinity from Comcast here

 

[BreezyLimbo]

What if the admins dont know mobile is working and are essentially locked out forever

We are doomed

 

[SiRatul]

I can't even access it on mobile as long as I'm connected to my wifi. As soon as I switch to my 3G/4G connection it works fine.

 

[liliththepale]

There were some posts on Twitter about it aimed at @NeoGAF before I made the thread. No official response yet.

The Opera Dev browser works for me, but only using the VPN (Germany)

http://www.opera.com/developer

It's free if anyone wants it

Yeah, that works for me too. Better than getting stuck with mobile version IMO.

so I can't get to GAF on desktop

I get the same error when I connect to GAF over wifi on my phone too, but not when I use the 4G connection.

Here in Spain it's only the desktop site. The mobile one work in every type of connection.

 

[The Janitor]

 

[Ran rp]

are the memes back

 

[Einchy]

Having to use the mobile version on desktop is making me sad.

[edit]

Gaf is pretty dead with only the mobile version working.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

are the memes back

Your meme ends here!

 

[farisr]

Just gonna post in here to say I'm having the same problem, regardless of browser. Tried a bunch of US based VPNs, same thing. Tried one from Japan and it worked.

 

[Raw64life]

Having same issue. Only works on mobile. I tried every suggestion in this thread and none of them worked.

 

[FelixOrion]

Your meme ends here!

In every age, in every place, the memes of men remain the same.

 

[ArjanN]

Same problem here.

 

[Acerac]

Same problem here. Happens I guess.

I just wonder how long until it gets fixed.

 

[Nevasleep]

That is not intimate details lol

It isn't best practice to be disclosing file paths, verbose errors, versions etc. Can still be useful to attackers.

Anyway, somebody reboot the memcache server.
