Site is slow Sunday

Al, do you know anything about the time change? The start times changed on the items that I had scheduled to start this evening. I agree with you. I did some listings early this morning and it worked great, now I am giving up due to the extreme slow down. Takes forever now for anything to load. Normal Sunday in Auctiva land

I am now in server error hell, and I can't select any images either. Just another day at Auctiva.

It's outrageous, and the most outrageous thing of all is the lack of any information / response / activity / acknowledgement from the Auctiva folks.

I acknowledge that the images are fine and our bandwidth charts concur. If affected even 2-3% of viewers of listings it'd be noticable in those graphs, and it's not.

my cache is clean, I am on a clean reboot, you've got dozens of people here complaining.

Another day of "SERVER ERROR" for me- might as well watch a movie.

Sure will be nice if they keep the pictures going today for us that end auctions on Sunday evening

It is taking four minutes or more to upload just a couple of images. Trying to save produces runtime errors. Old saved listings take several minutes to arrive and if I click on the '60 seconds' line it stops loading altogether. It was taking around 15 minutes to upload a single listing since Thursday. Today almost impossible. Also, lots of listings failed to upload to Ebay over the week. Everything unnecessary has been deleted from my computer but makes no difference.

Very slow getting from photo to photo. Everyday now the same thing. You can't get anything done!

thankfully the pictures in listings seem to have been unaffected today, but i have experienced major site slow down within the last few hours and have recently been getting server error, also the site appeared completely down about 1/2 hour ago and all i got was a white page with server error in red.

the times seem to be incorrect for GMT (uk listings) and do not appear to be corrected for day savings.

according to Auctiva Jeff everything is OK!

HAH!

Oh Jeff..... Its not okay.... I cant even get into Auctiva at all now... Whats Up????? It was messes up last Sunday also, If I remember right.

Okay I can get in threw the Community Site. Still Really slow.

I have had trouble all afternoon, I have got 2 listings done but it has taken me forever! I get run time error, or VERY slow loading. I have cleaned my cache and sign back in to start all over. Nothing seems to help!

I hear ya.... They will get it fixed soon. Every time they redo something It messes up.

Now I am getting service unavailable & losing the listings when I try to save. VERY STRESSFUL!!

This is the 3rd Sunday I haven't been able to list through Auctiva. The last two weeks I had image problems and posting problems so I finally had to list through eBay. Today the service is unavailable completely. I can access the community, but I can't even attempt to list without getting a "service unavailable" notation. Ugh!!!

Me 2

Auctiva is running faster than normal for me right now. Kudos!

Hi there. Things are slow for me today as well. I have had intermittent server error messages, though not nearly as bad as yesterday. Yesterday I was sure Auctiva had croaked for good. It is very slow going but I have gotten some listings done. What I have been doing, although it is a PITA, is saving the listing every time I enter data, that way I don't lose a whole listing, just one piece of data when the errors hit. You might try that for some alleviation of the stress of losing a listing. Jeff, though you may not show problems on your end, we are definately getting them. Clean caches and all. I appreciate that you are checking into it.

I just did another listing and it is much better. Thanks!!!!

the reason some are having problems is because their being punished for the much complaining

I just took the day off and watched football and might list later when I get email that Auctiva is up and running smoothly ..

Did I say smoothly ???

kbalona, you must be a small part time seller

I am so totally frustrated at this moment! I have been able to do a few ads today, but for the most part I have encountered this message: Server Application Unavailable
This has been going on all day. Thank goodness I had the insight to get the bulk of my ads done during the week. I only hope that I am able to access them to launch this evening!

Another fine Sunday

Did someone throw cold water on the Staff to wake them up?

Auctiva Jeff said everything is fine.

Not sure what site he's accessing, but it's not the same one I am.

This is all I've been getting for the last hour or so now..

Server Error in '/' Application.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Runtime Error
Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.

Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off".


<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->

<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="Off"/>
</system.web>
</configuration>


Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be replaced by a custom error page by modifying the "defaultRedirect" attribute of the application's <customErrors> configuration tag to point to a custom error page URL.


<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->

<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" defaultRedirect="mycustompage.htm"/>

I have been having such problems with auctiva the past couple of days - which is a first for me up to now it has been wonderful - I keep getting that error message you get; my pictures are not loading up properly and last week when ebay had a 20cent sale I listed something early in the day only to discover that it never got posted at all. does anyone know what is going on..

welcome to Auctiva

Ditto to what everyone else has stated. Thankfully I got most of my listings done yesterday. My techie husband maintains my top-of-the-line computer and connection so the extreme slowness, run-time errors, server errors are coming from Auctiva and I do not need to clear my cache. I can't maintain a business like this. Shame too, cause Auctiva has a lot of potential. Photo hosting is far and above ebay picture manager when it is working at speed. Picture manager has to be reloaded frequently as it slows the more you use it. Who can professional ebay listers depend on? I wish I knew. It is just too expensive to pay anymore for the privilege of listing. Thanks for letting me vent.

lol

Forgot to mention, that me and my PEON items are still waiting here for them to show up on eBay. They have been in the "PROCESSING" mode for over 30 minutes.
But who cares, right? I am just one person, so it must NOT be happening.
ugh!

A couple listings went thru fine but slow and now noyhing but Sever Runtime Errors- Auctiva sure fixed the slowdown- I no longer have a slowdown- its a complete halt. Youd think that their techs that never inform us would know that if we all disappear so does their jobs.

I've been listing since Thursday with all of these problems. Then Friday they take it down. From 10:30am - 8pm I only listed 40 items (that usually takes about an hour or two). Since I'm a trading partner with lots of pictures, Auctiva is valuable WHEN IT WORKS. I gave us on it and tried it again this afternoon just to find all the problems that you are mentioning above. Everytime I list, it gives me 2 or 3 of the same item on eBay. I'm now paying for the consequences. When I ask questions to Auctiva or even post message saying I'm ticked off, they get deleted. I understand this is free, but can they just post a community message that tells us what is going on and when we can expect everything to run decently? At least we can go do something else instead of sit here, complain and get so frustrated that we completely quit Auctiva.

Great-now two of the listings i tried to post went into scheduled limbo, got duplicated so now I have 4 scheduled to post instead of two and it wont let me cancel them. Yahoo-more grief.

Burk..don't list anymmore. I listed a saxophone neck at 8:07PM EST and it was processing for 30 minutes and now it is still "POSTING".
They will hopefully eventually go through and you will have to edit them on eBay.
Also, just for the record, eBay is pretty good about giving fees back and canceling auctions that were launched due to the many auctiva technical difficulties.

how do we get ebay to refund the duplicate listings
