stewartingram Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Some while back we had this problem, which I believe was related to something in one of the ads on the site and was being looked at. It was apparently cleared up (for me anyway), but has now happened again. For reference, I'm running XP Pro, with all updates, and IE (which I believe is 8, the latest compatible?). Basically, on opening RMWeb, I got to VNC. Then 1 page at a time, I scroll down and open topics I'm interested in (by the Dot on the left for latest post); each topic I open is in a new tab so that I preserve the original page. After reading the topic, I close that tab, when all tabs are closed I then got to VNC page 2 and so on. Towards the end of the session I'm finding the error message appear. I then close RMWeb completely, go to Internet Options and delete past history; this clears the problem. (When shutting the PC down, I also do this every time).

Andy Y Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 If you clear your RMweb cookies it should go away again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady_Ava_Hay Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 I am glad I stumbled on this thread. I thought I was the only one when Google was giving me the outages some years back. As a last resort I cleared the browser history. Eh voilá Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southernboy Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 I had this error about a week ago, and it continued for three or four days. I couldn't access RMW at all. Just kept getting the same error. Checking the error message on Google told me it was caused where a server believed I was trying to upload data (or an image) the size of which exceeded or was close to the limit of that server's capacity. I didn't clear my cache / history or reset any cookies (etc) ... just left everything alone. After three or four days I was able to access RMWeb again. I hope the above is of use to some more knowledgeable person who may be investigating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BG John Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 I've been getting this recently in Firefox on Windows 7. I haven't uploaded anything big, just posted a few text only comments, and this morning I uploaded one 800x600 photo, and been doing browsing the forum on and off quite a bit. Surely clearing cookies will mean losing all the VNC data? I've been closing Firefox and running CCleaner, that clears my browser cache, but not cookies, and when I restart Firefox it's fine again.

Talltim Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 I believe VNC data is stored server side, I certainly don't have any issues with it accessing it from multiple devices Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BG John Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 I believe VNC data is stored server side, I certainly don't have any issues with it accessing it from multiple devices Thanks. Clearing the cache but not cookies does seem to work though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RANGERS Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Having trouble logging in using Chrome, just constantly brings up the 'you don't have permission....' Message every time I try.

Adams442T Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Having the problem again, on my Chromebook. Tried the suggested, which didn't work, so I'll try leaving it a few days and see what happens! Tried the 'delete cookies' and finally this worked. A bit of a PITA though as I now have to re-enter passwords for all and sundry. Still better than losing my RMWeb fix! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allegheny1600 Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 I'm finding that I have to clear my "RMweb" cookies nearly every day now, getting bored with that! I don't like to clear ALL cookies as this affects my wife (don't ask!). We're using Windows Vista with latest version of Firefox, even Firefox has been S L ooo W since last damn MS update.

Southernboy Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 I've switched browsers again to post this. I'm unable to access RMWeb through my preferred browser (Firefox) - I just dumped the 'OAVARS' cookies that have accumulated in the last day or so (there were a couple of dozen of them at least - and I've had to do it every few days for a little while now) and can't still login. I note another dozen 'OAVARS' cookies have loaded literally as I write this. Someone recently suggested I should simply 'switch browsers' to access RMWeb. That really isn't the answer is it - I mean browsers should work around humans, humans should't have to adjust their lives to suit a badly designed internet.

RMweb Gold Market65 Posted August 24, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 24, 2015 Hi. I'm using Firefox, and if I need to Palemoon. Between about 20.40 and about 21.20 tonight, I was unable to access this site with either of those two browsers - I cleared the cookies from both repeatedly, but to no avail. Then, suddenly, access was regained. I don't really know what happened there, but I see from looking around the site that other members have had some access, between those times, at least. Very baffled. With regards, Market65. P.S. I did not try I.E. for that is one browser which I never use anymore. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickL2008 Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Glad ive found this thread also as well, ive had the same problem, my OS is Windows 7, and ive tried accessing the site using Google Chrome, and I just get the "request entity too large" message, even on the old RMweb, hopefully clearing the Cache and Cookies will fix this problem thenNL Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BG John Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 As the offending cookies seem to be related to the banner ads, a way of blocking the adverts would be good, and a great incentive to fix the problem before the advertisers discover that no one is seeing them!

RANGERS Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 Just to mention I'm now getting this error message every second or third day.

RMweb Gold nickwood Posted September 15, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 15, 2015 I use Firefox (preferred) and Safari and I'm getting the error message again with Firefox. Clearing cookies and history has no effect. Safari continues to be ok. If it is a banner add that is causing the problem as has been suggested why hasn't it been removed?

Southernboy Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 I feel like I'm starting to sound like an echo of myself ... But as posted a month ago "Just to mention I'm now getting this error message every second or third day."

RMweb Gold nickwood Posted October 14, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 14, 2015 It has returned again for me too using Firefox. Safari continues to be unaffected. It can go on for days, having to clear caches and cookies etc and then suddenly goes away for a while, only to re-occur. This is the only website I use where this happens and as far as I can make out it is related to banner ads. I ask again can't this be sorted?
