Yep – got the “wordperfect” error message when I first tried to get to the website. It was in “raw” form, no message box, etc. Got there on the second attempt
SiubhanDuinne
Same as Steve, and when it finally did load, it loaded funkily (if that’s the adverbial form).
Also too, the cursor in the comments box is trembling like Lily the first day you saw her.

Yup. On top of page:
The right hand column has a bunch of these.
At the home page, the right hand column also had

Here’s what I got at the top of the page above the Balloon Juice graphical header:

Joshua Norton
I’m just spitballing here, but could there be conflict issues with your customized interface? Has WordPress done any upgrades that are suddenly incompatible with the Balloon Juice theme?
I maintain several blogs with WordPress, but I use their own theme interfaces and I don’t seem to have any of the problems you seem to be dealing with.

I’m also getting this message overlaid on the middle of the page:

I get “WordPress database error: [Got error 28 from storage engine]

Tried to quote and received messages “SQL has gone away.”
Let’s see if comments work. this time.

Rich Webb
Yes, WordPress errors here too: once above the header and twice in the right-hand column. Something is unhappy in the SQL back-end.
However, the site will load after waiting long enough and otherwise looks okay.
Opera 9.64 on XP+SP3, with site preferences set to allow JavaScript but to block Java applets and embedded content (I stripped those permissions from all sites when the latest Flash zero-day exploit was announced).
malraux
Either errors or flashbacks to the old blog “WordPress error”, one or the other.
yeowzuh
Yep, error msg below. VERY slow loading, totally weird format (not the weirdness of last week’s column disappearance though), words of one column running through words of another column, etc.

Over the past couple of days–regardless of whether at home on Comcast or in the office at my university–the site has been loading very slowly. Right now, there’s a whole lot of white space between the comments.
We all know that the Internet is powered by pet hamsters and rats running on exercise wheels that generate electricity. If you forget to feed them, you get Internet problems. At least that’s what my systems people tell me.
john@MM
John,
I did some research on this and came up with one possible explanation for the behavior. It seems to be a disk space error. You need to contact your hosting provider’s tech support.

Barry
No error on the main page; I also got the Infamous Error #28 upon clicking on the comments link.
Travis
I’m also getting the WP and Bad Behavior errors mentioned above. I see four WP errors on the top and RHS.
In addition:
I get multiple errors while trying to submit this comment. (This is 2nd try). The errors include “sql server has gone away”
RSS is not working.
On my Firefox 3.0.12/Mac Book, the comments are shown with very large whitespace gaps between them, like 1000 pixels.
The error console shows multiple errors:
– error in parsing value for property padding-top from /wp-content/themes/balloon-juice/style.css, line 48
– dropdown is null on /, line 596
– Error in parsing value for property ‘filter’ on /, line 1

I have the ads overlapping the text on the left hand side, with the Error 28, as well.

Also, the blogroll on the right was nothing but error messages.

I couldnt get to the site for few hours. It simply gave some connection errors. Just now the comments are kind of messed up. There are gaps of almost 30-40 lines between each comment.

Yep, I’m getting it too. I finally got the site to load, but the ads on the left side are overlapping the content. Aarrgghh!!

John Cole
Going to do a fundraiser tomorrow and rebuild the site. I guess it just needs the engine fixed every year or so. Considering how many comments and how much traffic we get, I guess once a year is not bad.
Catsy
Yep. Site’s thoroughly hosed. At the top of each page is a WordPress error containing a SQL query. Not sure what the problem is, as the query itself looks syntactically sound, but that doesn’t necessarily prove anything.
jnfr
RSS feed is down too. I’m seeing the same site errors everyone else is reporting as well.

Yes, but given the errors, you’ll probably never see this! :)

I think it’s some kind of electro-static anomaly emanating from a geo-synchronous position high above Tunch’s futon. Otherwise, I’m having the same problems everyone else is.

Libby
I’m getting the same error message and weird layout but loaded fine. Faster than usual in fact. (hangs head in shame – using IE7.
Hearing about clogged intertoobz in other places though. Atrios complaining since last night. I was having sluggish access a couple of days ago. I’m south of both of you. Could be a wider regional problem. Been noticing a pattern like that in the last few months.
Adrienne
Yeah, I’m getting the same top of page error message that everyone else is getting:

Whatever the hell THAT means!
elisathon
Same errors as above – Word Press padding etc, at top of page above banner, error messages in side columns, couldn’t load b-j at today until about 1pm EST, and now that b-j is loading (very slowly) there is about 6′ of blank space between each comment.
RSS: Google reader doesn’t have last few posts and RSS live bookmark not loading. FF2 & Safari on Mac.
Emailed you screen shots.
Steeplejack
Just to add my two cents: Every refresh brings an SQL error 28 at the top and two more along the right side, above “Recent Posts” and also in place of the blog roll.
Actual content and format of each post are okay, though.
Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?
I don’t know anything about WordPress, but I am a bit of an SQL weenie, and I think error 28, in the flavor of SQL typically used with WordPress, has to do with lack of disk space. Could that be (part of) your problem?
I add that it may not be an “absolute” lack of disk space. It could be that you have disk space free but it’s not enough for query buffering and/or temp files.
/End of backseat driving.

@Ajay: I am having the same issue; very large gaps between comments.
Crusty Dem
Technical problems at balloon juice?? That’s unpossible!
But yes, same problems as everyone else. Are you trying to give oliver willis a run for his money for most consistently fracked web site? He used to whup up on you, but now you’ve got this and he hasn’t been down for at least a month.
And please don’t take any criticism personally, I’m pretty sure I could accidentally burn down my house with my iphone, laptop, or a toaster and I couldn’t HTML my way out of a blockquote, just having some fun..

2th&nayle
refreshing the page from the banner brings all the posts back to normal presentation, but when clicking comments everything goes back to the widely spaced display.
anonevent
Adding my .5 cents on top of Steeplejack’s: I also get an out of disk space error when the database file itself is as large as is allowed by the database, even though there is plenty of space on the drive.

Here via Firefox, and here’s what I see:
1. Across the top of the site is:

2. Down the right-hand side, under the Hosting Matter/s ad is:

SELECT t.*, tt.*, tr.object_id FROM wp_terms AS t INNER JOIN wp_term_taxonomy AS tt ON tt.term_id = t.term_id INNER JOIN wp_term_relationships AS tr ON tr.term_taxonomy_id = tt.term_taxonomy_id WHERE tt.taxonomy IN (‘category’, ‘post_tag’) AND tr.object_id IN (24887, 24884, 24879, 2487
… and under the “2007 weblog winner” badge is:
WordPress database error: [Got error 28 from storage engine]
SELECT t.*, tt.* FROM wp_terms AS t INNER JOIN wp_term_taxonomy AS tt ON t.term_id = tt.term_id WHERE tt.taxonomy IN (‘link_category’) AND tt.count > 0 ORDER BY t.name ASC

3. Also seeing huge gaps between comments
4. On the bright side, the left-hand side, where all the ads are, looks just fine!
I’m gonna see if Safari makes any difference.

I got the same wordpress error as everyone else when I was using IE 8 but I wasn’t able to post – I got a whole bunch of MySQL errors. I’m on Firefox now – got the same WordPress error on the top plus the site looks really weird – specifically the comments are spaced really strangely. We’ll see if this posts.

OK, I cough up some scratch on your Pay Pal later today towards that engine overhaul. This site is worth it..

Yep. Almost a full screen of blank space between comments, and WP errors on both sides and the top banner.
But at least there’s some activity after 18 hours of silence on the site, which is a positive.
Tax Analyst
…or if the “fundraiser” is a separate activity schedule on the site for tomorrow I’ll wait for that. I’m a little confused about it at the moment. Yeah, I’ll do that, so I’ll look for a fundraiser thread tomorrow (or am I misunderstanding your comment?).
IndieTarheel
@Zifnab: Same here.
CaseyL
OK, checking back in to say, one, that I do get the same stuff in Safari; and two, my earlier comment (see #56) got broken up into 2 paragraphs, and the second paragraph almost looks like it’s a separate comment under the pseudo-poster name of “Categories.”
That’s just one of the many things I love about this place. There’s never a dull moment :).
Grumpy Code Monkey
WordPress database errors at top and in sidebars, massively messed up page layout in IE, somewhat less messed up page layout in Chrome. Comments have large amounts of dead space between them.
In these circumstances, I normally recommend fire.

I think you need to go with nuke option and ditch the WP format altogether. Leave up the old site to where people can search the archives, but move to an entirely new platform. Something along the lines of Crooks and Liars , or Thinkprogress. Me chrystal ball says there is a deeply rooted malware in your BJ realm, maybe a worm that someone can activate to wreak havoc when they please. And obviously thusfar undetected. It’s the only way to be sure.

Worse now than when I posted at #3 lo these many hours ago.
I don’t quite know how we can find out with the site so messed up, but I would really like to know how A Mom Anon’s husband is doing. Mom if you’re out there and can get in would you please post to something and bring us up to date? Have been thinking of you.
Oh, and today is my 67th birthday. Happy birthday to me :-)

Yeah, all day I’ve gotten the following message:
WordPress database error: [Got error 28 from storage engine]
SELECT t.*, tt.*, tr.object_id FROM wp_terms AS t INNER JOIN wp_term_taxonomy AS tt ON tt.term_id = t.term_id INNER JOIN wp_term_relationships AS tr ON tr.term_taxonomy_id = tt.term_taxonomy_id WHERE tt.taxonomy IN (‘category’, ‘post_tag’) AND tr.object_id IN (24896) ORDER BY t.name ASC
And I didn’t realize that all the comments were showing but there is inches of space between them.

Happy Birfday, Siubhan!

I get a WP error notice at the top of the page, and the layout of the page is totally borked. Error message follows:
WordPress database error: [Got error 28 from storage engine]
SELECT t.*, tt.*, tr.object_id FROM wp_terms AS t INNER JOIN wp_term_taxonomy AS tt ON tt.term_id = t.term_id INNER JOIN wp_term_relationships AS tr ON tr.term_taxonomy_id = tt.term_taxonomy_id WHERE tt.taxonomy IN ('category', 'post_tag') AND tr.object_id IN (24896) ORDER BY t.name ASC
Borking results in ads from left side colum being pushed toward the center of the page and overlaying the blog text, making most of the blog unreadable.
Interestingly, the ad formatting problem does NOT occur when viewed in Safari (v4.0.2) on my office Windows XP desktop PC. Borking occurs in Internet Explorer 7.0.
I also note that I get a slightly different WP errir message in Safari:
WordPress database error: [Got error 28 from storage engine]
SELECT t.*, tt.*, tr.object_id FROM wp_terms AS t INNER JOIN wp_term_taxonomy AS tt ON tt.term_id = t.term_id INNER JOIN wp_term_relationships AS tr ON tr.term_taxonomy_id = tt.term_taxonomy_id WHERE tt.taxonomy IN ('category', 'post_tag') AND tr.object_id IN (24896, 24887, 24884, 24879, 24876, 24874, 24870, 24867, 24865, 24860, 24855, 24850, 24544, 24832, 24826) ORDER BY t.name ASC

comment fix?
idee fixe?

I’m not a huge fan of WordPress. Especially when you have to rely on a few poorly maintained plugins to get things functioning the way you want. But I don’t think WordPress is your problem. I think your host is running a compromised or a poorly maintained server. I’d start looking for a new host and then start from a completely new install of WP.

There is bad juju spread far and wide across teh interwebs today. At least on the parts I’m having to deal with.

It’s all a plot to prevent postings about the latest GOP sex scandal, Tennessee State Senate Republican Paul Stanley resigning because of his affair with a 22 year old intern. Family Values. Also, too.

comment to hopefully fix the display.

Perhaps we could register this site as a “clunker”, so Cole could get his $4500… oops, they’re out of cash, too.

have your host reboot the site. something is hosed in the server environment.
Dr. Morpheus
WordPress errors are gone and the main page loads fine. However, the comments are still spaced with a hell of a lot of whitespace.
John,
Did you mention to your host provider that their servers might be running out of /tmp space? A couple of other commenters above mentioned it too.

Yes, got WordPress gibberish and that’s all when I tried to access BJ from my office, and even now at the very top of the screen before anything else:
“WordPress database error: [Got error 28 from storage engine]
SELECT t.*, tt.*, tr.object_id FROM wp_terms AS t INNER JOIN wp_term_taxonomy AS tt ON tt.term_id = t.term_id INNER JOIN wp_term_relationships AS tr ON tr.term_taxonomy_id = tt.term_taxonomy_id WHERE tt.taxonomy IN (‘category’, ‘post_tag’) AND tr.object_id IN (24896) ORDER BY t.name ASC”
Tax Analyst
I still have the WordPress error message at the top of the page, although I think it’s a shorter version of it:
WordPress database error: [Got error 28 from storage engine]
SELECT t.*, tt.*, tr.object_id FROM wp_terms AS t INNER JOIN wp_term_taxonomy AS tt ON tt.term_id = t.term_id INNER JOIN wp_term_relationships AS tr ON tr.term_taxonomy_id = tt.term_taxonomy_id WHERE tt.taxonomy IN (‘category’, ‘post_tag’) AND tr.object_id IN (24896) ORDER BY t.name ASC
…but maybe it’s the same length as before.
The ads still are superimposed and infringe on the comment text, but I don’t see any giant white spaces between comments. That part is fine…but it wasn’t a problem this morning, either.
That is all for now…

OT – but Koyaan over at PJ did some digging and came up with the “original” BC that the birfers used to create the Kenya one, it is not from Kenya, it is from South Australia, which would explain the crest at the top and the 7s 6d thing. Lavender is there (with changed initials) Miller is there (with changed initials) even the book and page number of the cert is the same. Boooya PJers!

FWIW, getting the same errors as mentioned above, WordPress/database errors & huge whitespace between comments, on Firefox on GNU/Linux/WTFever.
In Opera, no extra whitespace, but same errors otherwise.
Konqueror… well, never mind Konqueror. I click on a post title and it wants to know if I’d like to save the page or open it in Firefox. Sortable, but I’m too lazy to futz with it.

This kinda reminds me of the good old days of BJ where you’d submit a comment and get a WordPress error.

I need this site to work like a flower needs the rain. Firefox 3.5.1 on my Mac shows the WordPress errors on the top and right, and large white space between comments. The ads went back to the left where they belong.
Are there solar flares or something? I’ve been detecting a disturbance in the force all summer.

Shit’s all messed up. Just saying.

is this where I leave a comment and suddenly everything starts working right again?
Kevin
guess not. I get this error at the top
WordPress database error: [Got error 28 from storage engine]
SELECT t.*, tt.*, tr.object_id FROM wp_terms AS t INNER JOIN wp_term_taxonomy AS tt ON tt.term_id = t.term_id INNER JOIN wp_term_relationships AS tr ON tr.term_taxonomy_id = tt.term_taxonomy_id WHERE tt.taxonomy IN (‘category’, ‘post_tag’) AND tr.object_id IN (24896) ORDER BY t.name ASC
and the adds aren’t on the left where they belong but instead cover the left side of the posts. Good luck guys, looks like the internet gremlins are f@&%ing with you.

Looks like wingnut tea baggers have found a way to defeat Obama Care. Screaming frother mobs shouting down dems at townhall meetings with pure mayhem.. Paid for by the insurance lobby and directed by right wing talk radio.
Where is Officer Crowley when the peace is actually being disturbed.
Makes me want to break some heads.

Happy Birthday, SiubhanDuinne!

A Mom Anon, if you can read this, I hope you’ve been able to get some rest. Please do let us know how things are going for your family when you get the chance.
I think John should run the fundraiser as a “Vote for Tunch or Lily” poll. Let’s settle the site’s Cat-Servant-vs-Dog-Owner ratio once and for all!

Thanks, all, for the birthday wishes. Nice, pretty ordinary day, ending with a delicious dinner (not made by me!) — homemade lasagna and a double chocolate walnut cake with warm raspberry sauce.
Anne L, wrt my nick: first, thank you for knowing it is Gaelic! It is a translation (incorporating slight wordplay) of my maiden name. My last name was Mann; the Gaelic for “man” is “duine” and I simply doubled the N. I came up with it when I was about 12 and have used it in one or another iteration ever since.
More than you wanted to know, I’m sure!
D-Chance.
100% better.
