This seems to be an intermittent problem, but it happens more often than not. When I click on the "Repair/Optimize tables" link in the Maintenance tab of AdminCP, I am not able to open the page. I just get a "Waiting on xxxxx.com" message from the browser.

It causes my entire web server to hang. I am able to ping the website but I am unable to RDC into the server after this happens. Anyone have any idea what may be causing this? All theories will be welcome. I am pretty desperate at this point and have found no help with vbull support staff.

Thanks.

you should close your forum before you "Repair/Optimize tables"

admincp / vboptions / Turn Your vBulletin On and Off / Forum Active -> set to 'No'
