    Problems registering on Elvis Tower

    Anyone else having this issue? I'm new to the community and I only get an error when trying to register there as a new member. I'd like to be an active member in the Open Rails community here and there.

    What's the error you get? You can always email the board admin; he's usually very responsive.

      And when do you get to the error?
      Is it on the page at http://www.elvastower.com/ when you click on the "Forum and File" button? Or did you click on the "Donations & Membership" button? Note: that button is not for general free membership.

      Is it at the page "http://www.elvastower.com/forums/index.php" which you get to by clicking the "Forum and Files" button?

        I get the error when I plainly try to Register on the forum board. I just get,

        "This page isn’t working
        www.elvastower.com is currently unable to handle this request.
        HTTP ERROR 500"

        The Registration Form just doesn't like me.

          Are you using TOR? At one point, I thought that ET was blocking registrations from TOR exit nodes.
          If you like what you see here at Trainsim.com, be it the discussions and knowledge in the forums, or items available in our library, I hope you'll consider a paid membership to help support keeping the site operating.... Thanks!

              Well, I have just gone onto the relevant areas using both Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome, with no problem, which internet browser are you using on your computer/laptop??

              When you click on the RegisterNow! button you don't go directly to the Form, you have to read and accept the Forum Terms & Rules first on the Registration Rules Page and click on the little white box at the bottom of that page, which then sends you to the Form page for you to fill all the relevant fields in to register your new account.

                You will also get an error like this if you are running a VPN.

                  I'm positive I'm not using a VPM and I am using Google Chrome.

                    I own elvastower.

                    http 500 is usually a generic error code with no further useful information. Send me pm with your ip address and e-mail and I'll look to see if either is in a block list. It may take a couple of days to get back you as I don't often have the time to stop by this board as frequently as I once did.
