Same here...really frustrating when you want to help out, and all of of a sudden the dreaded splash screen 'takes over', just when you want to post a reply >:|
I really wonder what's causing all this...

Had it for a while, then fixed itself. If it were a database, I'd be wondering who flushed the shared pool.

Isn't flushing shared pools a kind of 'pre-9i-thing' to do? ;)
But yes: all seems stable again for now, but the 'self fixing'-powers this forum sofware seems to posess, really scares me :)

The stability issue of forums is not database related. Whenever these issues occur, its usually related to the Jive application and some processes that it runs.

I know that, just tried to be funny, and will try again later ;)

Today it would probably be more accurate to name this site Oracle Community Splash Screen Error, with a note that there is the occasional chance you would find a forum instead.

Maybe if it stopped posting everything in triplicate it would scale better.

I am not sure if this fourth forums auto generated post was here at the beginning or is a result of editing one of the other copies.

Or scale at all.

Ah.......a reply box.....how nice!

I started posting this about an hour ago to report a splash screen followed by extreme slowness.....unfortunately I started getting the splash screen when I tried to hit reply (after it slowly loaded for almost 2 minutes). Hopefully that means someone was addressing the issues I was trying to report. :-)

No, that would be my computer, covered in dust, ashes and pizza-left-overs. ;)

Anyway:
It appears I can actually read en reply again on OTN.
The dreaded splash screen seems to be gone.
I guess I'm not the only one who prayed for that.
starts a (probably too optimistic) victory dance noone would like to see in real life

I knew this would happen
