“Service Temporarily Unavailable”
I occasionally get this page when navigating through this RV net forum... “Service Temporarily Unavailable - The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or ...

As somebody who has done websites/programming/neworking for 20+ years, it looks like it's either a hardware or software problem (which could be one of those painfully obvious statements). What that means is if it's hardware, then they may have outgrown the current server and need to upsize it... either more RAM, more CPU, etc. If it's a software problem, it could be an issue in Windows itself (or whatever the OS is), or it could be an issue with ColdFusion, the middleware that serves the forum pages.
The way these Service Unavailable errors are appearing and disappearing almost makes me think they have it set to automatically reset itself whenever it happens... which causes a delay while the service (the webserver or ColdFusion in this case) restarts itself.
A client I recently did some work for ran a CMS on ColdFusion on an OLD 32-bit version of Windows, and it had all kinds of problems. If they're trying to do the same thing here, then it's definitely time to upgrade.
Since the error is happening on multiple sites, it just means that the same server(s) are used for those sites as well.
If any of the "powers that be" need help with this, they should feel free to contact me, as I can help diagnose the exact problem and recommend a solution.
BTW, even trying to make this post I'm getting the errors, so it may end up double-posting.
