Thanks for the report. This has been a long term continuing problem. Your reports help us keep track of how often it is causing problems. Sending us a note any time you see those errors helps to prove the weight of the problem. Here is some background information. The Savannah systems are virtual machines. For literally years we have had problems with resource overload on the systems. The vcs host in particular often gets overloaded. When that happens it just can't service all of the tasks that it is asked to service. When that happens it fails. One of the failure modes is that the web service (also on vcs in this case) gets enough cpu cycles to respond to you but while it is waiting for the backend process (also on vcs in this case) to respond that part times out. When it times out the web process gives you the errors you saw. It has been an ongoing struggle for literally years to get the systems improved. Bob
