Forum Now All Garbly Goop

Discussion in 'Forum Tech Questions, Problems and Troubleshooting' started by rawdney, Mar 15, 2016.

  1. About the 2nd or 3rd time I logged in yesterday, the forum was just a bunch of lines with long scroll bars horizontally. See attached screen shot. Impossible to read or post. It is still like that. I waited to see if it would be fixed, but it is still the same. I am using Win7 64 bit with an older version of Firefox. Several other forums I use also use the same software that you are using. XenForo is what it looks like. I can visit several other forums that use the same software and I have no problems with those forums. Just the GrassCity Forum.

    I am making this post on an old Win XP computer that I rarely turn on anymore, and the forum looks fine. The forum even looks fine on a little netbook with XP that is so slow, it takes almost a minute to open Firefox., but with my main computer, I can not see the forum, just what you see in the attached screen shot. What happened?

  2. Thanks for the info you included in your post. @Lizard King will check it out. Sorry for the inconvenience of the garbly goop.
     
  3. It seems you ae not loading the js and css files correctly. Please supply a traceroute result to staticforum.grasscity.com
     
  4. When I followed the email link to this thread the page loaded find but when I logged in, I got the garbly goop. So I'm back on an old XP computer to reply. Been too long since I've done a traceroute. It won't let me do it. Maybe I've just forgot how to do it.
     
  5. The problem still exists. See attachment for traceroute.

  6. I am not sure there is anyone else facing this issue. XP has long been gone out of the world and not sure if this can be foud and fixed as if i am not mistaken XP doesn't support none of the modern browsers out there.
     
  7. Actually, the problem is with my main computer running Win 7 with an older version of Firefox and the problem still exists. I never had any problems with this forum till I started this thread.

    It is an old XP computer with the current version of Firefox that I have to use to see this forum and make posts here and it works fine.
     
  8. Windows XP Tracert :


    Tracert

    Determines the path taken to a destination by sending Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) Echo Request messages to the destination with incrementally increasing Time to Live (TTL) field values. The path displayed is the list of near-side router interfaces of the routers in the path between a source host and a destination. The near-side interface is the interface of the router that is closest to the sending host in the path. Used without parameters, tracert displays help.

    Examples
    To trace the path to the host named corp7.microsoft.com, type:

    tracert corp7.microsoft.com

    To trace the path to the host named corp7.microsoft.com and prevent the resolution of each IP address to its name, type:

    tracert -d corp7.microsoft.com

    To trace the path to the host named corp7.microsoft.com and use the loose source route 10.12.0.1-10.29.3.1-10.1.44.1, type:

  11. Ok. I started having this problem with another forum and got a wild idea about that one. Fixed that problem, then wondered if the same thing happened with this forum. Yep. Somehow, and I have no idea how it happened, cause I know I did not use adblock on this site, but I somehow blocked the entire GrassCity Forum in Adblock. I just undid that, and I now have the forum back. Must have smoked too much when I did that. Sorry if I caused a lot of problems.
