Anyone else getting random 404 errors when entering the forum?

For the last week or so I've been getting random 404 page not found messages when using the same bookmark I've used for months on my iPad. Anyone else?

No issues here.

 

Still happening to you? Are you getting errors anywhere else at the same time?

 

Just happened again, only happens on my iPad. I'll close the 404 page, touch the same bookmark, and this time it works. happens whether I'm connected to my wireless or using the cellular data. I'm wondering if it's somehow noticing I'm on a mobile device and trying to go to a different version of the page and not getting there. When it happens again I'll grab a screenshot.

Here's what I see. I close this, click the bookmark again, and the normal page shows up.

Same one I always use for Safari.

No heavy loads on the server and if its only happening on your Ipad i would assume your going to a broken link or a 404 page.


If you manually enter in the url and click on wherever you are trying to go to does it work that way?

 

No, I never to go to that page you see in the screenshot on purpose. My bookmark points directly to the full screen forum page but ends up there. A couple days ago I deleted the bookmark, manually went to the the forum page, and created a new bookmark in case the old bookmark was somehow corrupt. Same result.

Edit: here's the URL of where I get redirected to, that page in the screenshot.

But what happens when you open up a browser and type in the domain name? Does it take you to the site or give you an 404 error?

 

Closed browser, cleared cache, cookies, history, open browser, type in www.themagicinpixels.com/forum/ and it goes to the 404 page in screenshot. Close that page, type in address again, and it correctly goes to the main forum page. First time always goes to the error page.

 

Further to that, any time I try to come here after the browser cache, cookies, and history have been cleared it goes to the 404 page the first time. Any subsequent time it directs correctly, even if I've closed and reopened the browser.

 

See if it happens when you go to [/size]www.themagicinpixels.com

 

OK, that worked. Got the page same as screenshot, but instead of the 404 frame got "Latest Posts" list, even though they weren't actually the newest since some in the list were from 2013.

 

Problem is on your end with the app your using or your ipad.

 

It's the built-in iOS7 Safari browser.

Nobody else uses an iPad to look at the forum? I can't be the only one. Oh well, don't waste any more time on it, it's not that big a problem. Thanks for the time you did spend.
