Title: "Unable to start another process" error
Post by: Ryex on April 21, 2011, 12:05:01 am
Ok, so I'm randomly getting this REALLY weird error while browsing the forums.

ita a pure white page with big red text "Unable to start another process"

then in this box underneath it says "refreshing in ten seconds"

I've had the error trying to shout, I had it trying to start this topic, I've had it randomly when just entering a board.

any one else getting it?

Same here.
I thought maybe it was Opera, so I fired up Firefox and haven't had any troubles, but I think that it was just a coincidence it stopped after the browser change.

no this is a server side issue with SMF or php or something not being able to start another process.

Are you still getting it?

I only had it for like a two-minute span, but not since then.

That's weird. Maybe the host is out of resources because some other client on the same server was using them up. Remember when we had the XML refresh in the shoutbox and it took 30% of the CPU? It's likely that something similar happened to somebody else.

If the error happens again, I can contact the host and ask what's going on.
