Can't access coacht in FireFox

Recommended Posts

I was able to access the site last night, but as of today I no longer can. It just stays stuck at "looking up coacht.com..."

 

I've already tried clearing the cache.

 

I'm running NoScript (Javascript whitelist) and CookieSafe (cookies whitelist) with coacht.com and boards.coacht.com allowed on both. Were any changes made recently to the site that could being causing this problem?

 

Thanks.

Yes, it's Firefox 3.5.2.

 

The status bar never seems to get beyond "Looking up http://www.coacht.com...

My FireFox loads the page but keeps showing "Transferring data from cdn.eyewonder.com" in the bottom left. That is the ad server which serves the Gatorade ad at the top.

 

Have you tried IE or Chrome just to see what happens? Is that how you are able to post?

It seems you are having DNS trouble with your ISP. "Looking up..." means that your browser is trying to determine CoachT.com's address on the internet.

 

Chrome and IE each cache resolved addresses longer than they are supposed to, which may why you are experiencing this problem with Firefox. Firefox asks for the address more often than the other browsers. I use Firefox almost exclusively because it behaves correctly in this regard.

 

The problem with trying to troubleshoot this is that Comcast provisions each city/community with its own DNS servers.

 

If you're comfortable changing your computer's network settings, you can do what many Comcast customers do and use alternative DNS servers that will give you more reliable lookups.

Hmm, it's not like Google to ignore standards, so I'm rather surprised that Chrome does that. I thought it might be a DNS issue, but a ping to coacht.com completely successfully. On the other hand, if IE caches IP addresses longer than it should, Windows probably does the same. In any case, I was only on Comcast for the long weekend, so I'm no longer having issues.

Coach, I also have the problem you do showing that in the bottom bar. It also seems to hang up for a few seconds after clicking to a new page or post.

    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure. 
    • This whole situation is bonkers. You don’t just kick your star player off the team just because you heard them say the F word; the coach definitely had something against the player, or somebody definitely did. Also, nobody has brought up the idea that the school blackmailed the college to get the college to withdraw the scholarship offer, not to mention that the coach who kicked her off is no longer even with the program; they were fired. I think this is a pretty easy lawsuit. I don’t know if she should deserve that much money, but I think she should get enough money for a full-ride scholarship if she cannot get one after this situation.
    • Oh yeah, I’m sure you are different people just always on the same thread for some reason, always agreeing with each other, perhaps just a bunch of dorks who would like to ###### and moan about high school football coaches do a lot of other students, so you make a football team and get a yell at them. When they do something wrong, but I’m sure you don’t like that, do you?   and I’m sure I’m aware of where you get information. A teacher who was on the coaching staff but was fired after the new coaching and staff came in and realized he actually had to start taking his assistant job a little bit more seriously than just wanting to make a little extra cash on the side, hardly even showing up to most practices, should’ve left with his buddy to go to Farragut. I’m sure he could get him a defensive coaching job, but I doubt he will be there in three years. Looking at the way Farragut is currently going.
    • It may be hard to believe but there’s more people than me that think you guys are a bunch of losers.    I’m sure the coaching staff, yourself included, cursed at a bunch of high school students. Nobody could name more than 3 coaches on staff due to the constant turnover. 
    • That's complete BS.  Nobody at ACHS has access to CHS student records unless a transfer is made from CHS to ACHS.
