BECAUSE:
This appears to be happening because your computers have stored the old site IP and cookies.

I have tested and was able to submit.

Please try clearing your cache and cookies. Also, try to logout from Singer's Showcase - this has stored old settings as well - looks for cookies on your computer.

Phil, we appreciate you are working on the problem. I am a computer programer myself for a VERY LONG time, and have dealt with these kind of issues with users.
There are a few bottom liners here. We are dealing wtih hundreds of computers all over the world, so this is not a simple problem with one machine or configuration. Also, all this worked a few days ago after the problems with logging in. BTW at present I am coming to you from Germany, because something has changed again and I had to go Anon.

I understand you have not become rich by being the webmaster here, and much of this is a labor of love. Understand the frustration. I would say that perhaps having ML_Texas just doing a normal upload sub and have it work would pretty much make me happy. Crystal figured out a way (that was no small feat and I have tried to duplicate the resetup or personal info.

But my cache, etc. is clean. Obviously it is the server move that has created a major problem. As Spock would say.. this is logical. A move of the scope of data, configs, and new directories is a nightmare. I think your code is having trouble finding things. Jumping to places that are not there.

Anyway, all info concerning your site is wiped from my computer. The problem has to be in your code.

I posted this on jvj's other thread, but I'll put it here too... just in case.

After I noticed the site had been switched to the new server, I went ahead and logged out, cleared my cache and deleted cookies... I even went and deleted all the %temp% (including temporary internet files) manually and ran Disk Cleanup.  I deleted any instance of KS/SS items from my browser 'favorites', reset Internet Explorer defaults, and changed a few binary numbers in the registry.  As an added measure, I went into Safe Mode and cleared everything again (since my computer sometimes won't delete certain things from the temp folder in regular operational mode).  Then I rebooted.  No dice.

Out of idle curiousity, I installed three different browsers: Firefox, Mozilla and Netscape.  I didn't allow any importing from Internet Explorer.  I then tried to submit with each browser.  Still no dice.  

Clearly, if no instance of the former site is left on the computer, caching from the old site isn't a possibility.  I am stumped  

And just for the record... nothing irks me more than not being able to fix something that goes wrong on my computer.  It's the geek in me.

Hehe...me too! I work on computers for a living and I tried everything possible on my end. I even created a new account on SS with a different Email address and tried an upload!! Nothing! It's up to you, Phil. Good luck and godspeed lol

Grin. Yep, Deb you appear to be approaching geekhood, which I consider a very hallowed place. The obvious impossible solution for this server is a wipe, and a recreate of all accounts. Yet, it appears that in many areas Phil has succeeded in preserving a huge amount of the database.

I assume you are a Java coder in training and there must be a signifcance to line jump error message. I am assuming Phil set his main directory the same place and kept the same names for the sub directories.

Yet the wierd part something is creaming in the header, at least for me, or a previous upload is locked in neverland where it glitched and hanging a chunk of the system. It would only take a single jump to neverland or a heap collapse as something runs into memory areas and begans to misinterpret instruction sets and try to read it as java>script>interpreter-ack.

I had considered starting a virgin account which should clean things up. So you went in and reg cleaned and even went to safe mode to kick off anything except for the kernel stuff and any lingering adware, viruses, or whatever.

We were getting a lot of IP block behavior for awhile there on the old server. Moving to Anon went straight through that.

Feel stumped in that I have suggested we do a real time access request maybe in some type of debug mode locate the jump into nirvana. Yet, as is true many times, these maybe phantom errors created by a bad jump.

We may have a hacker though.. trying to jump into admin for the server and has laid a fenced worm or something nasty. Crystal cracked it somehow, and the strongest hint in in the profile reset, which of course would the "profie" would be called in every upload and Crystal tweaked hers and can upload.  

Wait a minute.. what am I talking about. Like some Star Trek and Spock's brain thing. Am I channeling a programmer through a alternate musician's body. Hey man, I just want upload my metal, okay dude... really.  Make a CD. Be a rock star.
Must have been a Silicon Valley geek in another life. Though nice geeking Deb. Talk to Crystal. I think she has something.

Please be advised that the problem has been discovered and will be remedied shortly. For taking so long to find it, Phill will be subjected to general ridicule and scorn by the other members of this site.

When and if -

It's like taking Viagra for the first time

You are just glad it works.

Crystal said she didn't do ANYTHING.  She just subbed, and for some reason it worked for her.

But yay!  So it has been found.  Yippee!

I'm glad you found the problem.  I remember making a transfer from one server to another many many moons ago on a Unix system and couldn't figure out why things weren't going the way I planned.  Ended up that I had to reset all the ownership and permissions on the directories and trees.  The new "logins" didn't match up with the restored files security settings.

Thought I'd share my previous experiences since "shortly" has already passed.  I just tried a sub and am still having the problem at 5:56 PM.

I stored the new site on my system shortly after it was relocated. Cookies as well as my cache, and all possible history that can be deleted from my internet settings was deleted as part of a 2X daily routine. New site IP stored in my bookmark.  This is the first time I've been able to access this site since around this time yesterday (6-22). Prior attempts gave me a white screen telling me that this site may be experiencing technical problems, or the page didn't exist. This happened with a cleaned cache, and new site stored. As for others that also weren't able to access this site yesterday afternoon, and evening, I can't say whether or not they did or did not clear their cache between the transition to this location. Yet this was a common problem among a group of us.

Hopefully everything is running smoothly now!
There were some server settings that were causing a few of the errors.

For all Internet Explorer  - Window XP users and those using SpyBot or other similar software - You may want to check the following settings...

Tools
Internet Options...
Security (TAB)
Restricted Sites
Sites... (button)

Make certain that none of the Karaoke Scene Sites are listed there.

There was a major network down. This caused people from the west coast difficulty connecting to KS.

They repaired the network yesterday evening. Unfortunately, I do not control the networks.
