I've seen a couple of these today:

Database error The GreenHybrid - Hybrid Cars database has encountered a problem. Please try the following:

• Load the page again by clicking the Refresh button in your web browser.
• Open the www.greenhybrid.com home page, then try to open another page.
• Click the Back button to try another link.

The www.greenhybrid.com forum technical staff have been notified of the error, though you may contact them if the problem persists.
We apologise for any inconvenience. HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Fri, 01 Dec 2006 04:03:55 GMT Server: Apache/2.0.52 (Unix) DAV/2 PHP/5.2.1-dev X-Powered-By: PHP/5.2.1-dev Set-Cookie: bbsessionhash

 

Usually that's accompanied by a specific error printed out in SQL. Can you copy those contents if it happens again?

 

Will do but it may be specific to:

Mac OS: 10.3.9
Firefox: Version 2.0

I had cleared my cookies and tried to login again . . . with repeated "Success" messages followed by "Not logged in." I switched to Safari and it worked great. So I restarted Firefox and was able to login.

Problem was traced to a table that got full, and wasn't being cleared out. I've cleared the table manually, and the site should be working properly now.

 

For the future, errors such as this are not computer-specific and would occur on any operating system or browser.
