Gmail Withdrawal

Posted on Friday 8 June 2007

I haven’t been able to get into my Gmail account for 40 minutes now, and it’s a lot tougher to deal with than I would have expected. No more Google Chat (or Gtalk, or whatever it’s really called), no idea what e-mails I’m missing. At least I can still get to my Google calendar.

Has anyone else’s Gmail account been down this long also? I’ve been getting some combination of the following three errors every time I try to get into it:

Temporary Error (502)

We’re sorry, but your Gmail account is currently experiencing errors. You won’t be able to log in while these errors last, but don’t worry, your account data and messages are safe. Our engineers are working to resolve this issue.

Please try logging in to your account again in a few minutes.

Oops… the system was unable to perform your operation (error code 766). Please try again in a few seconds.

Yes, those last two are almost the same, just one’s a 766 and one’s a 767. I wish they didn’t say to try again in a few seconds when it’s been 40 minutes. Every time I see “a few seconds” I get my hopes up and think that maybe I’ll be able to get back into Gmail soon, but so far it hasn’t worked out.

So, is it just me, or is anyone else having problems also?

UPDATE: Back up ten minutes later, down for 50 minutes total. Looks like I wasn’t the only one. I did lose the chat that I was in the middle of when it crashed, there’s no sign of it in my chat history. Interesting. Or not. At least it’s back. Time to update my local copy of my Gmail account from their POP3 interface. I always get a little worried that my e-mail is all gone forever whenever that happens.

    Horse infant crib bed sheets elicits two very different side effects from those who are immersed in the rather difficult practical knowledge of designing a room for a son. Some are apt to be very passionate about a lovely monkey-themed room, but many mother and father are less than encouraged with the possibilities of an area festooned with garish animated people that battle with their furnishings.
