Can't access the Backroom
I've got a very curious bug here. Trying to access the Backroom from my computer will cause a http 404 error message to show up.
It's the only page where my computer does this, and I can access the BR from another computer, so I'm trying to figure out what's wrong. I can add that I had the comp disconnected for a while and when logging back, the start page to this forum had a changed and broken link. I'm not sure if it's related.
We are all aware that the senses can be deceived, the eyes fooled. But how can we be sure our senses are not being deceived at any particular time, or even all the time? Might I just be a brain in a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?

What's the URL of the page that causes a 404?

It's the normal one correct?

Re: Can't access the Backroom
Yes, that is the normal one.
What browser are you using on the computer that gets the 404, and what browser on the computer that can access it?
Re: Can't access the Backroom
Try a hard refresh (Ctrl+F5).
Re: Can't access the Backroom
IE 9 on both. I can bypass and get it to work by using Firefox, so the problem is probably in IE on my end. Still it's very worth to track down this bug.Originally Posted by TinCow
Ctrl F5 didn't work.

Re: Can't access the Backroom
On the computer that has this problem, did you do an upgrade from IE 8 to IE 9?
Re: Can't access the Backroom
Nope. Well I did, but it was ages ago.

https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/index.php still works. I suspect they're related.

Should've tried that earlier. Cleaning out the temporary internet files did the the trick.

Re: Can't access the Backroom
Doesn't hard refresh do that?
Re: Can't access the Backroom
Appearently not in this case.

Re: Can't access the Backroom
It's been quite a while since I last used IE, so it might do things differently. On Firefox, Chrome and Opera, Ctrl+F5 AFAIK clears the cache for the page and reloads.Appearently not in this case.
