    Can Not Access CASTPICS. Anyone else?

    For a couple of weeks I have been unable to access castpics. I get the following error message:

    Failed to connect to sundog5_LoadData at mysql1.hostica.com. Error: mysqlnd cannot connect to MySQL 4.1+ using the old insecure authentication. Please use an administration tool to reset your password with the command SET PASSWORD = PASSWORD('your_existing_password'). This will store a new, and more secure, hash value in mysql.user. If this user is used in other scripts executed by PHP 5.2 or earlier you might need to remove the old-passwords flag from your my.cnf file


    Anyone know what this means

    Seems to work okay with my abysmally slow dial-up connection.

    I saw that new content had been added, maybe try clearing your cookies?

    I am the about the last person I would take computer advice from, I really don't know much about these things; especially since my computer that had XP on it died.

    I cant access cast pics load data either. I get the same thing with my Ipad so maybe it is a mobile device issue with the database... I will try it on my computer as well...

    It's the load database lookup feature that requires a DB connection at

    No luck here either.

    This has stopped working Since mid May. I believe Sundog5 is the owner of the site. He has to update the setting for the call to the database server. I tried to contact the link for the website owner back in May however the e-mail address bounces.
    Sure wish this could be fixed

    I just went to www.castpics.net, and I could navigate to any part, even the load data.

    You can search the Load Database & bring up all the hundreds of loads?

    The above link works fine for me and I can navigate the entire site. I tried it with Internet Explorer and with FireFox and have no problem.

    The whole site is being rewritten and will have a new version up shortly. I have not fixed the old version as I have been working on the new.

    I was able to get to the new site but I was looking for the information on the Ideal/Lyman 310 tools and can't seem to find it on the new site? Am I missing something? Or is it not going to contain that anymore? thanks.

    The way they have it set up now, you have to click on 'the bench'.

    Once that page loads, the 'the bench' tab is a different color, and THEN you can hover over it and a pull-down menu appears that includes the link you want.


    I am betting this is a coding glitch and will be gone in a week!
