Is anyone else having trouble with the Axiom Community? I can't even log on, any place I click just leads me back to the forum.

Seems like there's only been a couple of us being able to log on and navigate in there today so far ... maybe a secret society.

I can't log on, either. It just kicks me back in here. Maybe it's because I complained aloud about the brown.

I'm sorry for the trouble! Jim checked your login pmbuko early to make sure you hadn't registered with another password by accident, but that doesn't seem to be the problem.
Next step in our investigation - Wid too please - could you tell us your OS and Browser?

I get kicked back to the forum, too. I use Mac OS X and run Safari. I was able to access it while at work. That was on a Windows based system. Since I was at work I wasn't able to spend any time in the Community.

Mine took a while to get up in the gallery Mo, looks like the photos have to be approved by the Axiom staff prior to being launched onto the site.
The Axiom Community is really going to be a neat deal whenever all of the bugs are tweaked out of the system and more folks join in.

That would be a big yes big fella ... somewhere up top is an 'upload pictures' tab, you'll have to go there and then upload and wait for the pics to be approve, you can then go back and edit if you want. Ain't nothing in life a free ride Tex.

Whenever y'all log onto the community site and it bounces you back here go right back to the community site without re-logging back on, it *should* let you back in there ... that's what has been happening for me.

Just trying to figure out how to list my equipment. It appears a person can search for people by equipment, location, etc. However, so far I don't see how to add my speakers and other equipment.

Already checked that and all the settings tabs, don't see how to add equipment. For example, for speakers it just says "default" and you can't add anything. The browse feature looks like it will allow you to search for people in your area, or with certain speakers, but not sure how it will work at this time.
It is my guess that the site is still under development.

Same goes for me as well Randy, all I'm getting is a 'default'.
There's some adjusting to do yet but once everything is up and running on par it's certainly going to be a cool thing.

Anyone else find it annoying that you have to go back to the home page to gain acces to the forums from with in the community?
Never mind I think it was only on one page.

XP and Vista with Firefox 2. It works for me, but the chat is somewhat unreliable. Haven't tried it on one of the Macs yet.

Wid, can you try this - log out of the forums. Log back in, being sure to click 'remember me'. Then click on the community banner. Are you able to use the community without logging in a second time?

Didn't seem to help here... logged out... closed IE (6.0)... reopened it, cleared cookies and cache... and came back... hit the community login now! box, logged in at the "community" side... it spit me out logged in to the forums... went back into the community side through the blue sidebar link on the left... and I wasn't logged in on that side.

Wouldn't it be easier to not have to worry about logging in to the Axiom Community as long as your logged in on the regular forums?
One log in, would be simple enough ... or so it seems to me.

One log in, would be simple enough ... or so it seems to me. That seems to be the source of the problem. We had a script written that would port the logins - so for users for whom it is working, once you are logged into the boards you should just have to click on the community button and you're logged in. But for some reason we're looping with a few users. Ajax, Bren - are you perhaps using a firewall? I'm trying to find a common theme. It doesn't seem to be OS or Browser.

Has anyone tried what I mentioned with any success? I am already logged on to the main forums to start.
I click the "Login Now!" button on the Axiom Community graphic, get prompted to log in to the community, I enter my username and password, and then click "Login"....
I get dropped back to the regular forums, and then if I click the "Login Now!" button for the community, I get right it.
Extra step, but at least I can get in.

I have basically the same problem already described - looping back to the forums. The Community never seems to recognize that I have logged in. I can poke around a bit in the Community site, but it doesn't know it's me. And it says "tomtuttle has 0 friends". Not that I'm bitter or anything.

Also, right now whenever I try to post something on the boards, my browser just stalls, says it's waiting, but I get impatient and just click on the View Forums link, and my post that I was waiting on to get posted has been posted.

I still have the same issue... log out... clear cache and cookies, relog in on the Msg Boards, hit the Community link, and I'm a guest over there... if I DO try to log on in the Community, it spits me back out (still logged into the Msg Boards) to the Msg Boards.
Maybe an issue with our security settings (like 3rd party cookies, maybe?) for those of us who can't get in?

It works for me, I just have to login each time. For some reason this started recently. It used to recognize my forum login.

Also,
I think being able to rate pictures is pretty cool, and the system will tell you if you have already rated a pic.
However, it would be nice if the system would not show you ones you already have rated. You basically have to go through all of them over again each time.

All non-able-to-log-inners;
Could you please tell me what security you're using? EG MacAfee, AVG, other? We're still digging for the common theme.
Thanks for your help with this!

I have a hypothesis: perhaps only those of us who logged in/created accounts (briefly) before the site really went live can get in.

Don't think so, I never made a separate account as I didn't try it till it went live. It looked like I needed a separate account but I tried my board login and it worked. I did get the kickback first time though then, it worked fine.

Hello non-log-inners;
Jim seems to have found one of the issues we are having (we think we are having two). It's to do with the age of your passwords, so St. Pat Guy, skyhawk, etc, if you would like to try to get in tonight you can change your password and then all should be well. (You can also change it back once you have changed it the first time if that's easiest for you.) Jim hopes to write a fix for everyone who is having this issue first thing tomorrow, but until it is in place this should get you in.

Thanks for all of the work you guys are doing to make this community thing a reality. Based on my own tiny experience, I have a vague idea how rough getting software like this to work right can be.

I changed my password (we're talking the board password right?) and I tried and it still kicks me out to the forum and when I click on the link I still get back to the logon page. I cleared my cache and cookies and changed password and still no luck... I guess I'm pretty much the only one left not able to get in

BTW, I'm running into an odd problem with Axiom's websites. When I only have one page actively loading (such as the forum page), it's pretty quick. But when I have more than one page loading (say the forum page and the chat window), it's incredibly slow--almost unusable. Now, I've got a 10MBit pipe here at work, and I can load other sites at the same time as Axiom, so I suspect the issue is over in Dwight somewhere. Anyone else have this issue?

Sorry I'm late to the party, Amie, but I've only been here twice today. Like Ken, I'm finding the web site agonizingly slow today. It's a little faster this evening, but this morning, it would take up to 3 minutes for a page to load completely. Tonight, when I clicked on the community link, it took 5 minutes for the login page to load. And, when I logged in, I was bounced right back to the forum again. This posting form still hasn't loaded fully, and it's been more than 5 minutes. Whew, finally loaded.

Seems like I am now having problems with the Axiom Community. I have to login everytime I click on the community link. Even if I check the box to remember me, it still requires me to login each time I hit the website if I close my browser and reopen.
It also does not seem to recognize that I'm already logged in to the forums. I've even logged out of the forums, logged into the community which logs me into the forums, but still have to login to the community every time.
Also, when I login to the community it always kicks me out to the forums, then I have to click back in to the community again.
It was working fine until recently.
XP, IE7, and yes it does not help to delete cookies, temp files, forms, etc.

Ok, I just checked it again.
It appears that if I kill all my cookies, temp files, etc., close/reopen my browser and login to Axiom's forums, this will let me into the community without logging in as long as I don't close my browser.
Once I visit the community after reopening my browser, it does not remember my login, like the forums, and I'm required to login each time, which in turn kicks me out to the forums.

UH-OH, I just tried to get into the community with my new Vista powered PC and I can't get into it no matter what I try. Cleaned out temp files and cookies, closed IE7, reopened and it takes the login, sends me to the forum as usual, then when I click back into the community, it still doesn't recognize me . Good thing I have 4 other PCs running XP I wonder if AVG internet security is the issue, better try that in the morning after I get some sleep.

Even my most hardcore 'must upgrade before anyone else' friends have all gone back to XP. The last hold out emailed me this morning to say he is giving in.
Never went there myself, even when I recently built a new PC that could actually run the thing without bogging down.

This is annoying, I managed to get into the community this morning from this Vista box while AVG was scanning, as soon as it stopped I was blocked out. I shut it down, cleared all caches and cookies and I still can't get back in from here.

Heh... you're tempting me to roll my work laptop back to XP. But my boss would kill me. He's running Vista on his desktop now, poor guy.

Other than this one issue I have been relatively impressed with Vista. It doesn't seem to be as bad as most are making out to be. I am almost thiking about upgrades for the rest of the PCs in my house....almost.

I wonder how much of the problem is we have become accustomed to how XP does things and that Vista just does them differently and we have to agjust to it? Naw, it's just not meant to be out yet. SP1 should fix alot of issues like it did with XP.
I know, it's that computers need to be broken in to be able to run Vista at optimum levels.

Could be but to me, it seems to be a compatibility issue rather than interface complaints. Too many things just don't work 100% on it yet. However, as you point out, that will (should) get better with time.
I can see me changing someday when I need software that becomes VISTA only, but until then, the pain is not worth the gain.

I am presently building 2 new PC's and am trying to figure out if the pain of compatability, which I have yet to encounter, is enough deterent to keep me from installing Vista on these new PCs or do I go through hours of updating to catch up with an XP install.....and I have SP2 on disc.

XP just worked well on rollout... so far it seems Vista doesn't. And to be fair, it's not just MS that does that... MacOS X just didn't work at all for 6 months... until uh, "Marmot" or "Platypus".
I was working in a production environment then... and "I know your Mac is like... crashing to the point of having to pull the plug, but... whoa, dude... did you check out Garage Band?" was NOT the kind of customer service I was looking for.

I remember XP having a few issues on roll out but nothing like Vista.
I think they had really intended Vista to be strictly 64 bit but then realized that would kill them so they then cross developed it to 32 bit and in doing so mangled it for both versions.

I kind of hope they completely break away with the next major Windows release. I'm willing to give up compatibility for all brand new code that works and works well. They really need a fresh start. And we'll see what operating systems they're competing with at that point.

The take home lesson is that you shouldn't do a rollout of any OS major point release until at least the first couple of revisions have gone out. For OS X 10.5, I'm waiting for 10.5.2 before I push it out to all the macs I manage. We don't even have any real plans for Vista yet.
