SSL handshake errors

My users are regularly reporting site access issues, mainly
caused by SSL handshake errors.
It is not a custom site and I have turned SSL off.
Is there anything else I can do?

It's probably happening every other day or so. Some weeks are
worse than others

Funnily enough an hour after I did this post and it was down for
about 2 hours, as was this forum.
When it happens it affects ALL createaforum sites

I put some better monitoring in yesterday to restart if it get
stuck. It is all due to bots which I have been trying new things
every day to see if it helps...

The SSL handshake is failing almost every weekend and sometimes
during the week. IT's very annoying. I hope your changes have
fixed the problems because my users are totally bummed when the
forum is down. It's like a drug and they must have access to
it. HAHA. Thanks for all you do with the forum. I know it
can be stressful, but I and my users appreciate the efforts you
make. Cheers!!

I've been getting these errors occasionally too but they tend to
work themselves out. Still they are annoying.

Handshake errors are the usual thing...please try to fix the
problem. Love the createaforum and want to continue to use it,
however, these errors are killing my users. Cheers and thank

It seems to be stable now...will report any issues if I find
any. Thanks for fixing the issue (fingers crossed), I'm sure it
was difficult for you to be bombarded with handshake issues.
Cheers,
MRG
