Bad login

I recently ran into the situation where the forum would only recognize me as a guest (despite my being logged on to the PTC site. I was able to contact PTC via the collaboratory, after which the problem cleared up.

But what am I to do if this happends after the collaboratory is no longer available. As a guest I seem to have o capabilitites to leave messages at all. Do I just wait and hope that somebody notices the discrepency? Or do I take the easy (normal) and just quietly lose interest in the whole forum?

No.

We want experienced Mathcad users contributing to this forum.... So, PTC pull your finger out.

I have just had an error message several times while trying to login.

That same situation has happend to me a few times before. Even just tonight when I was trying to respond to jmg's post! It seems the login in doesn't register or something like that. Login functionality usually returns within a few hours or so.

Stephen,

What time was you trying to login?

Jean has stated several times that the site is down between certain times.

Me too. Several times.

There are not very much options ... at least, I can't figure others.

Alvaro,

Does the Guest login still occur? Can you give me as much detail as you can? Time of day, length of time, process flow
