If you get a message saying "something went wrong" and want to give us more details on what you were doing, then please use this thread as we'll be monitoring it. As the message states, we have logged what was happening, regardless, feel free to add the following details:

What you clicked to leave that page (which caused the message). For example, "I clicked the back button", "I was submitting a response", etc.:
Brad!
Provide as much detail as possible.
Please - ONLY - post in this thread to report the error.
I apologize - I posted a new thread and then saw there were two similar.
I was getting this error yesterday but I saw the site was under maintenance. I am getting the same error today, yet I see new threads by other people. I can post to this area of the forum but not C# or Database Development.
Where can I post my question(s) (now I have two!)
Here is my error: Sadly, you’ve reached a page that can’t be displayed.
We’ve logged this action, so we are aware there is an issue!
At this time, please hit your browser’s back button or simply close this page!

There are 10 kinds of people in this world. Those who understand binary, and those who don't.
We are tweaking some of the settings on our forums. This can result in the "Something went wrong" message that people are getting. What we need to know is:
Where were you posting (which forum area)?
Were you posting code or anything unusual?
If you aren't able to post the same information as part of a response here, then I ask that you do us the favor of sending an email to webmaster@developer.com
Title the email: VBForums - Issue
In the email include:
(1) Where were you posting (which forum area)?
(2) Were you posting code or anything unusual?
This will help us look at what is happening and hopefully adjust the settings to avoid the issue in the future.
Thanks,
Brad!

Reason: changed email address
Database Development, then also C# just to try a different forum area to see if problem specific to DD. It failed in both.
Yes, was posting code wrapped in code tags.
Will follow this up with posting the message body here. If you don't see it, it failed here, too.

I tried to email you privately and send you the text I am trying to post. I got the same "something went wrong" error.
I changed my email text to "this is a test" and it went through.
Do you want me to gradually build up my message and see where the issue might be?
Or, can you privately email me an alternate email that I can re-try from Outlook?

Call SQL Server stored procedure from C# and determine commit or rollback
I have a few basic questions.
Is this a good way to write a stored procedure where I want all UPDATE's to be atomic?
...
Is the rollback implied by the directive SET XACT_ABORT ON?
In my C# code, what will I get back if the call fails/succeeds?
Thanks, I know these are simple questions but I am not getting the right hits when I google. And in case you're wondering why a delete sp updates...I am setting fields in each of the three tables that will indicate the record is "deleted" but not actually delete it.

OK, those two posts above are my post that I couldn't post. #9 goes in the ellipses in #8 and I had code tags around it.
I also posted it without the @ in front of the pk, then I edited and added them in.
HTH?

I posted it to DatabaseDevelopment. First I posted the code in #1. Then I tried to edit #1 and the save button kept spinning. So I replied to my own post with the rest of my question in #2. Not sure what that means in the long run.

Something went right, too. I went back to the thread I had in the Test area and was able to successfully post the code that was causing the Something Went Wrong not so very long ago.
I submitted a post successfully. I then quoted the post containing the code and edited it to put HIGHLIGHT tags around the code to format it. That twice failed to submit. I then added another post with simple text and it submitted successfully again.
and my thread has straight forward text and few code blocks.
Please type you "straight forward text" into Notepad and attached the file to this thread. The IT people need to figure out what is in your post that is causing the error.
Its working Jones, but you did not tell me that what was wrong with the previous thread I attached to this thread in txt file? Or was there any issue in the website?
Just got the Something Went Wrong message when I attempted to validate a thread. I tried copying and pasting the contents of the post into a thread started in the Chit-Chat section here:
I just get the "something went wrong" message while sending a private message, so I guess it didn't reach the destination.
The message stated that the issue has been logged, but just in case that "something went wrong" with that I'm posting it here
It depends on what kicked out the error and at what point as to whether your message was delivered. Because it is a private message, there is no way for me to determine if it got through..... :S
Regardless, thanks for reporting this.
Brad!

For all of you that may still have this problem.
For 2 days now I'm not having this problem after I switched Editor in settings.
On "Settings" goto section:
Miscellaneous Options > Message Editor Interface
and switch to:
For what it's worth, I've encountered the error for the first time. I posted a new thread in the CSS Codebank and received the following message:
Something went wrong!

I removed the duplicate. Thanks for posting the details. I'll pass these to our team to take a look at.

Thread:
Post:
I was publishing plain text, responding by quote to another message (# 3 PlausiblyDamp, which has only text and 2 links). I try several times but it do not Let nothing be published. Try Firefox, Chrome. I go out and log in again. Nothing. At the end it allows if I Reply without Quote.
Here it does not permit links either
Can you email me what you were trying to post? Can you send it to submit@Codeguru.com and include the following:
a message that states "I was trying to post the following to VBForums"
The URL of the thread where you were trying to post
The text you were trying to post
This helps us as we try to figure out what tripped the security check.
Thanks!
Brad!
