    Agh! You've killed Sketchy! Or is it just me with a 'permissions error?'

    It wasn't me.... really :oops:
    I've swapped domain names.. and it's taking a while for the DNS to update, hence the occasional failed url's and emails.....
    should be rock solid by ttomorrow


    (oh, and a fair bit quicker than this bloated mess :twisted: )

    It can take 24 hours or more for DNS servers to propagate updates so your ISP's may not have been done yet

    Ade: I see you have created a DNS A record for sketchymtb.co.uk without the www. however apache or whatever you use must need configuring to accept it else it fails to load unless people use the full www.sket....... name

    yer Ade! - you've really gone and done it this time! :wink:

    Ive got the shakes from withdrawal now......

    What do I pay my £1000 subscription for???

    I have unimportant comments to make that have no relation to bikes or biking!

    DNS should resolve itself today as long as everything has been entered correctly and is left alone to sleep.....

    Then you may have the problem of any absolute addresses that will all need changing! :oops:

    Good luck!

    Strangely it worked fine for me last night on the new domain name and its still working fine from work which is a different ISP, ive been the only one on there all morning heh

    I also cant work out why it wont work using the ip address, presume as its on a co hosted box

    Steve posted about 3 hours ago and Mbnut at 2.20am or some silly time

    When I click on that it bounces me to

    http://www.sketchymtb.co.uk/Blah.pl

    so try it with the Blah.pl on the end. Weird as suggests your DNS is ok

    Out of curiosity, can you open a command prompt and type

    nslookup www.sketchymtb.co.uk (and hit return)

    Should get

    Obviously a difference there.....

    Yer but only slight which is weird. Could be mega coincedence but almost certainly both IP's are from the same hosting company and in their range. It doesnt load for me if I use the IP even with Blah.pl at the end so just have to wait I guess, I will go talk to myself on there lol

    That makes sense! :lol:

    Why dont you phone me with the answer, but Im not giving you my number! :lol:

    Im assuming its just a DNS update thingamee.... dont worry, I can post my pointless comments here for now....

    Oh, and for those remotely interested, the guy with the Trance is going to let his sale run until the end, Ive offered what he asked for it elsewhere but didnt seem to keen as he's been shafted a few times by the sounds of it, Ive offered to pay upfront too before he turns of any ad's.

    Im hoping we can strike a deal as I've kind of resolved to me getting one now, watch this (or Sketchy!) space.

    It was a joke, something about the fact that its a kent forum but im not from kent... :D

    Thats a bummer and sounds weird as he has it on ebay then offers it on a forum with the forks as well and then decides he wants to let ebay run. Maybe he got tons of people messaging him on the forum so he realised he was offering it too cheaply on there

    No, quite the opposite, he had it on here in December, no takers.

    Put it back on here in Jan, no takers...

    Put a final comment that he'd let both go for a fairly good price (£350)

    I PM'd him and offered him just that + postage and he'd rather let it run (for less!)

    Ive actually got the money sitting in Paypal as Ive not been withdrawing on sales incase it's accepted.

    It will be going to a loving home, Ive even told the missus she gotta sleep in the shed as the bike would be with me! :lol:

    Doh!

    Sounds bit weird then but you could always send me the money if you dont want it in paypal lol

    Not sure if mbnut comes on here but just incase, look at this http://www.bikeradar.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=12606222

    Could be a blessing in disguide if the small frame turns out to be too small.

    From my research it shouldnt be, but only one way to find out I guess.

    Yer, may be ok with a medium as it does have a mega bend in the top tube to aid step over clearance

    God this forum is antiquate posting on a single thread. Plus in the racing section I just did the same post four times LOL stupid thing said I couldnt as I had done another post too recently so I went back and hit submit again, to be given the same error...but it had actually posted!

    Bring back sketchy! Its quite often slow to load and sits there doing nothing for 10 seconds+ but at least its nicely organised!

    Oh hang on, it does work for me... :D

    I hate waiting for updates!!!!
    My hosting co. did warn me it might take upto 24 hours, but I though... nahhh.... won't take that long :roll:
    in the meantime this works :wink:

    Should be rock solid by 16:00 at the latest :?
