From: SC Tom on 19 Jul 2010 14:08 I know this thread is kinda old, but I thought I'd ask if any of you have had a problem with the community bridge not connecting with the following error: 503 program fault - command not performed System.ServiceModel.FaultException: Passport Header Not Found Configuration: Account: MS Forums Server: 127.0.0.1 Protocol: NNTP Port: 119 Secure(SSL): 0 Error Number: 503 Code: 800ccca4 The only way to correct it is to exit, then restart the bridge. It has only happened in the Answers forum, never in the Technet forums (so far). Thanks for any insight you may have! -- SC Tom

I am seeing the same thing here too, the only difference is I am using port 120 as Hamster is running using port 119. -- "I fought the Dharma, and the Dharma won." (Allen Ginsberg)

(Allen Ginsberg) > I don't know if what I did fixed it for me, or if something has changed on their end, but I haven't gotten the error message in a couple of days now. All I did was change my Sync Settings to Headers Only. Before it was set to All Messages. I normally have it set to Headers Only, but I guess the default was All Messages, and I didn't check to change it. No errors since then (KOW!). -- SC Tom |
