When trying:
http://communities.vmware.com/community/vmtn/server/server

I have got message:

VMware Communities System Error

The specified community does not exist

I do not recall any anouncements about shutting down that community.

I moved the community (and a couple of other ones as well). You'll see that the organization is much clearer.

The VMware Server community is at http://communities.vmware.com/community/vmtn/server

I noticed that the My Communities list changed from Server Products to Management and Automation Products. So I was thinking there's some reorganization going on?

Edit: And I see Server in the list of forums, but when choosing it, I get the does not exist error.

Understood, but you'll want to update all the links. They're still pointing to http://communities.vmware.com/community/vmtn/mgmt/server instead of http://communities.vmware.com/community/vmtn/server (All Communities menu, My Communities menu, and main Communities webpage.)

Also, the "mark all as read" link takes you to back to /mgmt/server.

This should resolve itself when the caches clear. I manually cleared the application caches, but the downstream caches may need some time to clear themselves. Regards, Robert

Well I wonder how many days it is going to take to "clear the cache"....
Yesterday I got a couple of times that the community "does not exist" errors and today we are there again:
"
System Error

* The specified thread was not found.
"

Besides the performance has dropped dramatically again. Sometimes it takes up to one minute for a page to display :*(
No forums today as far as I'm concerned.

System Error

    * The specified thread was not found.


Yawn.... this has got to stop, why can't it just work?
