The GNU XBoard project doesn't run the WinBoard forum, so we aren't really the right people to ask to fix it. Do you know if it's been broken for a long time, or might this just be a transient issue that the person running it may fix soon? Checking the Internet archive wayback machine, it was working on July 2, 2023, but broken on Dec 14. They didn't crawl it in between those two dates, so that doesn't help narrow it down much.

Maybe HG knows who is running the WinBoard Forum these days and how to reach them by email to report a problem...

Hi,

On the GNU web page for XBoard, the link to the WinBoard Forum goes to an error page.  Here is the error that is displayed:
---------------------------------------------------
General Error
SQL ERROR [ mysql4 ]

User eq80053 already has more than 'max_user_connections' active connections [1203]

An sql error occurred while fetching this page. Please contact an administrator if this problem persists.
---------------------------------------------------

Trying to go to the base URL for the WinBoard Forum ("http://www.open-aurec.com/wbforum/") yields the same error.

WinBoard is still very popular on FICS.  It would be helpful if the WinBoard Forum could be reinstated.  Thanks much.

Sincerely,
