Problem in the Verbal tests [#permalink] New post   06 Jan 2008, 15:07
While taking V3, I could not access any questions after 15th question. I was getting blank screen and also timer on the top stopped ticking.

I tried to refesh the screen without any luck.

Also, when I review the v2 test, which I had taken few days back, I can not view question 16 onwards, I get blank screen.

Any one else experience the same problem?

Thank you for reporting this problem. I am looking at the logs, trying to figure out what went wrong. Little luck so far. Please let me know if the problem is persisting, and whether tests v04 etc. work fine. Thank you for your patience. --Tino

I think the issue might have been with the max MySQL connections limit reached. The whole site started to spit out error messages about five minutes ago. I have removed that bottleneck, should not happen again.

Please let us know if you can now access the tests.

I still have the same issue. I tried it just now. For example, From review screen of V02 I can see questions upto 8-10, but anything after that shows blank screen.

Hi Path, sorry for the inconvenience! Please, as I am trying to figure out what is the problem, provide as much information as possible. Please tell me which browser and system are you using; whether you can access second parts of math tests or is the problem only with v02 and v03; finally, if the browser reports any javascript errors that would be very helpful too. My working hypothesis is that there is a javascript incompatibility.

Hi Tino, V01 and V02, which I had taken before, both have problems. Couple of questions when reviewed gives blank screen and I can not review the tests V03 stopped working after Q 16 during the test.
I checked some Math test which I had taken previously, but did not see the problem with Math tests.

I am using IE 6.0 on windows XP home. I don't get any error. I get all the buttons but instead of questions I get blank screen.

Your help at your earliest convenience is appreciated.

Thanks

Hello Path.

We are currently working on the problem. I've just checked the verbals in IE 7 and didn't notice anything weird. Everything worked fine. Please try to upgrade to IE 7 if that's not a problem for you. If IE 6 has some issues with our software, it might take you much less time to upgrade than us to fix the problem.

Let us know if this helps.

I've just changed IE 6 to IE7 and it helps. As I understood for some reasons IE 6 does not show correctly RC questions.
