API problems again

the whole site was unstable for around 5 minutes just before ht in the AFC CL games :(

And again. INTERNAL ERRORs everywhere

better to stay away at the mo, the site can crash again within seconds

Yep ..same here. all sorts of weirdness trying to load Horse Race menus / markets :(

Main site was very wobbly too

It's fooked here. This morning I couldn't log in through firefox either.

Looking alright again now. For how long though!

Not alright here, internal errors right left and centre..

All my INTERNAL ERRORs disappeared around 12:21. Bizarre if you're still getting them. Mine were constant for just over 20 minutes before that.

I just cancelled a bet on the Dubai Tennis outright. It's showing as cancelled in my account but it's still showing in the market :^0 (and it's an unusual amount and price, so it's highly unlikely to be a coincidence)

Hmmm, seems to have settled down a bit.. Poor show though..

Trap betting again Lori? ;)

yep seems to be ok just now ... bit of nightmare when you're trying to test a new app ... can't tell whether its me screwing up or the API :(

Too true, I'd just made some changes so wasn't certain if I'd screwed up..?

The bet has been cancelled but they've suspended the market :|

(Was second in the queue to lay Berrer at 210s fwiw Don)

*Fwiw i don't use API but the site is cleary struggling on all fronts, these threads always coincide with the site being awful too.

Betfair are not bothered. They have no competition. What ever happened to the monopolies and mergers commission? Does that not apply to the internet?

They get around it by saying "we are a bookmaker and as such we are operating in a fiercely competitive market", rather than "we are a betting exchange with well over 90% market share".

The monopolies and mergers commission must be very gullible then if they fall for that one.We all know that Betfair is not a bookmaker . They are not competing with the bookies anyway because the bookies shut down profitable accounts.

Anyone ever had this one before?

(500)Internal Server Error

its a new one to me and gawd knows i've seem most of 'em.

my API app is generally fine, but it occasionally has some weird behaviour

for example, the getMarketTree call returning double results for each market

or all 'going in-play' flags set to zero

not often, but frequently enough to be concerning about the stability of betfairs system

(500)Internal Server Error

I get loads of 500 errors, but some may have been generated by my middleware.
It's a generic code for a web server error (HTTP). The accompanying text varies.

all fine here

Pleased to hear that easykc1...............

Where have you been for the last 9 days?

Probably a Betfair rep :D
