Also, can you change the CNAME records to point to s4.zetaboards.com instead of z4.

Jonathan
Have done this, and now back to the 1001 CloudFare error page.

H.
Should be fixed now.
Sorry to report - still not working at all. Not resolving name.

I'll be offline for a few hours now - travelling - but will check back later.

The 520 errors are probably hiccups with the server which should be getting less frequent as we continue to implement CloudFlare protection.

Keep in mind that we're still being attacked; we just have much better defenses now (i.e. CloudFlare).
Don't get me wrong, I think the Cloudflare solution is a great idea to give our boards better protection,

Just sharing the information that I have collected. We are all more tolerant of things when we know more about what is going on and, you never know, somebody reading these topics may just come up with some solutions if they know a little more about what the problems are.

Grahame.
Yay!
I wasn't intending to say that you don't get the point of CloudFlare, but instead that the transition is still in progress, so some of the boards may still get occasional downtime from the attack (s11 is one of the servers that hasn't moved yet)—but you see already that the downtime is much less than before. You'll likely stop seeing those hiccups in time as we move the rest of the servers.
The bits about the move to CloudFlare are more for everyone else, since many people are getting errors from CloudFlare rather than their browser now, and their knee-jerk reaction is to say that CloudFlare is the issue (when it's really not), so that part was to make sure anyone casually reading this topic understands that using CloudFlare is only good for our service. It wasn't strictly meant directly at you. Sorry for the confusion.

I'm getting :

Code:
 
The server at bcfcforum.co.uk can't be found, because the DNS lookup failed. DNS is the network service that translates a website's name to its Internet address. This error is most often caused by having no connection to the Internet or a misconfigured network. It can also be caused by an unresponsive DNS server or a firewall preventing Google Chrome from accessing the network.


Am using Chrome, but also cannot access the forum with IE.

I received that error when the CNAME records were still pointing to z4.zetaboards.com, so it sounds like a caching issue with you or your ISPs DNS but it shouldn't last too long.

I'm just curious, are the 522 errors only affecting 7/11 boards? Cause my 11 board keeps getting error 522 randomly nonstop but my friends server 1 board is fine so is my other friends server 15.

Is it possible that the transition has interfered with codes on ZB? Was browsing through codes when I noticed that my Members Online code stopped working. I took a look and found that the coding within one of the files, http://z3.ifrm.com/63/1/0/p475459/Online_Today.js , has gone completely wonky. Several codes no longer appear to work, so I'm curious if this is because of all the recent happenings.

I can access your domain with Chrome. Perhaps it just needs to cache?
Look like deleting the A Record was not a solution for my domain ddkhvl.net. Members couldn't load any pages from that, just cached pages.
I temporarily use the zetaboards.com domain , i.e http://s4.zetaboards.com/ddkhvl, waiting for another solution or till the A Record Error resolved.
Thank you , Support team, for all the help.

It turns out that now we can use the A Record with s4.zetaboards.com
Good news, I happily inform ZB users.

board213.net has been added to CloudFlare
You should be able to point it to the domain now.
