Again! Problem not solved!

I was just about to cancel the process when finally after some minutes the login was successful.

It looked to me as if support.ptc.com was the problem and not lithium, but I may be wrong about that.

In case anybody cares - just now it took me 3 minutes and 20 seconds for being back to the community page after entering my login data at support.ptc

Problem not solved 😞

I am also seeing the problem again. I tried both Mozilla Firefox and IE 11. This reply was done via email and just as I was finishing, the login was successful on both.

To echo others comments, it took over 2 minutes this morning from submitting my credentials to seeing the page I was headed to (private messages).

I just logged in.  Took me 2 minutes and 15 seconds.

There was some sort of maintenance done over the weekend. Did that get done correctly?

Yes, we were included in the "shutdown" while the eSupport team had some backend changes.  As far as I know, that maintenance activity went as expected.  I have an open ticket with Lithium regarding my announcement area on the community.  This is why I haven't removed the message yet.  Thank you for checking in!

Funny thing is I never saw the message (other than the posting through PTC Community Announcements) until I just went to flag a MathCAD question posted in the wrong area. I seldom if ever go to the PTC Community home page so I never saw the "flag" / announcement.

Like Doug said, they're one in the same.  Normally I log into the community first so I'm automatically logged into support as well.  Doing some more testing, the delay is the same.  It doesn't matter if I start from the community or I start at support, the delay is identical.  I've also confirmed that the delay is not browser specific.  I can reproduce it with Chrome, Firefox, and Edge.
