Colossuss Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 (edited) A posted the same thing a good couple of months back. Sam, I can post a htaccess rule to fix it for you if you want, save you a bit of time Edit: The link could just be changed to /forum/ or you could use this: # mod_rewrite in use Options +FollowSymlinks RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{http_host} ^e46zone.com [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.e46zone.com/$1 [R=301,L] Which would redirect all traffic going to e46zone.com which seems to cause the error Edited October 17, 2012 by Colossuss shafz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shafz Posted October 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 Maybe it's a Chrome thing. Works fine on my IE at work. just tried in IE and FF and same error actually mine doesnt work on chrome, IE, or ipad, are you guys actually going to the home page then clicking forum. if you go to the forum page direct it works but not from the home page yup the link from the homepage just use google search engine to get directly to the forum, or i type it in manually not a massive issue for me but thought id bring it up incase others thought the forum was down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shafz Posted October 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 (edited) Message on iPhone using network im guessing people that can still access the forum using the link must have it cached on their machines.....try clearing cookies and try again Edited October 18, 2012 by shafz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colossuss Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 The reason you can't connect it because the server doesn't recognise the domain without "www." For example this works: http://www.e46zone.com but http://e46zone.com does not. The htaccess code I posted above would fix it easily Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colossuss Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 This is also effecting offsite links as well now. Quite a few links go through "go.e46zone.com" and fail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine as go.e46zone.com also doesn't work that its DNS not working correctly. It works fine for most on here, as well as for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colossuss Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 Well you have Google Analytics so you could see if anyone drops off after failing to get from the homepage to the forum. I've tried from several places; work, home, mobile and some friends. Same issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L333JSA Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 Same thing happens to me randomly - sometimes it will work sometimes it wont. Looks to be more of a DNS issue than anything else I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 The go.e46zone.com works now, so must have been DNS somewhere. The link goes to the proper address for the site and it works for me on my work PC, iPhone, home pc as well as loads of other members. Have you cleared caches etc?

Have you cleared caches etc? yup i think its DNS i just changed my computer to use googles DNS 8.8.4.4, cleared cache, then tried and got on straight away from homepage, went back to auto, cleared cache and link was broken again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
