Site Discussion / DB-Uniform Collation Download ...
Last post by Skhilled - May 30, 2026, 05:01:45 PMHello, I've been trying to download the DB-Uniform Collation but keep getting the following error:
As a test, I tried to download a few others and they work.
QuoteContent Encoding Error
The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because it uses an invalid or unsupported form of compression.
What can you do about it?
The issue is most likely with the website, and there is nothing you can do to resolve it. You can notify the website's administrator about the problem.

Last post by Ronald - May 23, 2026, 12:48:46 PMThanks Steve for this article. I gave up on Contabo, support is lousy, they refuse to help out.
I finally gave up and closed my Contabo account.
Being not well, I have decided not to be that active on the internet. I just have my IPB arcade which is very active. I also have the SMF Arcade, which is dead as a door nail, I am thinking of dumping this arcade no one can have any competition, and this is what the members want.
Right now I have a friend hosting my IPB Arcade on a shared server, I have access by a cPanel. I keep this forum updated. IPB 5 is now out, have to decide if I upgrade to 5 or let someone else do it. I have two girls who are Admin.'s they will take over when I am gone.
I have had a great time in all the years I have been on the internet. But life is not all internet, I am to a point now I can't do a lot of things, I seem to live on pain pills, sleep a lot, don't eat much, not that active, I try to walk the dog at the local park, which is getting harder to do.
Ron.

Last post by Chen Zhen - May 11, 2026, 04:26:43 PMThanks for the information!
The algif_aead module is not loaded on my system so I assume one of the previous updates may have disabled it.

Site Discussion / Re: Site's slow to connect
Last post by Chen Zhen - May 08, 2026, 09:39:56 PMThe site has been fine since the configuration was changed.
Basically a script (or scripts) were hammering the server with bogus file searches. Since PHP was previously handling the file not found errors, it was spiking resource usage (ie. memory + CPU). Apache now handles the error which uses very little resources, rendering that sort of attack ineffective.
