Troubles with contributing! Contribution #1 worked w/o problems, #2 got me to the site named above (twice), #3 worked fine again, then #2 finally worked!

#4 made me reaching the Error-Site several times, at the fifth or sixth try I finally reached the usual contribution page.

Details of the Error-Site:
Description: An application error occured 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 sever machine.

Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be vieable on remote machinees, please create a <customsErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then hav 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.

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

And: When I first try to submit this topic, I reached a similiar (not totally sure if identical) Error-Site!

It's back and functioning.

Yeah, it went away again.

And we're back - somewhat, at least. It all still seems very slow, and I still get that "Runtime Error" on the "Database" page, but at least I'm able to post a reply in this thread.

Let's hope for the future.

This is a great community, and work cannot be lost.

I feel the same way

I can't begin to say how relieved I am!

 

It’s great it’s back. Please continue for many more years.
I wonder who fixed it?

This is looking promising. 
I hope this stays that way, although like T!M noticed, the site is still somewhat slow and unstable.
But alas we can finally contribute again.

At times like these, you never knew how you can miss something until it is gone.
Glad that in this case, it is all coming back! ;-)
