Board » Technical Support » AL53_SSIta - cannot access SOL Forums - Help Please.

hmm and Jeroen - the following is an exchange of messages in Chiloe SailTalk Chatroom. I cannot find a reason why AL53 SSIta cannot post in the Forum so I said I would post a thread here.

Help please.

Hope you can figure out why there's a snag here!

Thanks.
Hi AL53 SSIta

What happens when you use a different browser, do you have the same problem?
It looks like you use Chrome and IE.
Did you try to sign out and back in again when this problem occurs?

What connection do you use, broadband or mobile access.

Hope this helps a bit, so far questions only ;)
I am a ex-admin of SOL who joins in from time to time.
I have a similar, but different problem. I can't log onto SOL regularly.

Just before I could not log on to SOL on my normal laptop using IE. Tried it on a different laptop and it worked. Now tried on my regular laptop again using Chrome instead of IE and it worked.
RESOLUTION OF AL53's problem by hmm:

Hello all, together with Alberto's help I was able to fix this problem.

If you're interested in the technical reason then here is the explanation but if not, you're just fine knowing that thank's to Alberto I was able to fix this.


The cause seemed to be that the sphene module (third party library we use for forum) keeps track of the last visit for the user to each forum and for some reason for AL53 SSita this was stored two times in the SYC-forum.

Dana1 - sorry can't explain your problem at all. I do know that some SOLers empty their browser cache very regularly but whether that is preference or necessity I don't know. If you have a slow ISP/connection that can cause hiccups, but usually only at the race-screen loading stage.

Some SOLers swear by Chrome, others by IE or FF... personally, I use Chrome as I think it loads quicker but... again it seems to be a preference thing.

None so blind
Hi,

The idea of removing all SOL cookies would probably work given the fact that IE worked on an other computer. However, I guess I'm not able to find all the SOL cookies, as it still does not work. But, no worries. I will stick to Chrome.

SSANZ Round North Island Race 2026 - Leg 3

Leg Three of our Round North Island Series, in partnership with SSANZ, keeps the pressure on! From Cook Strait, the fleet turns north for a 187 nautical mile passage up the east coast to Napier. It may look like a quick overnighter, but shifting coastal winds and the ever-lively Cook Strait demand sharp focus. In our responsive Sun Fast 3600s, a proven short-handed racer and powerful downwind performer, tactical decisions and precise timing will make all the difference!

Iceland to the Falklands 2026

Welcome to an all-new route, the first of three Round the 'Old World' of Europe, Africa, Australia and Asia.

To make sure we'll get it done within the month we'll be sailing our Maxi Trimaran.
