are you using http or https?
Did you already clear your browser cache?

It's not a fault on your machine. This message indicates an issue with the installation of the forum's software. Maybe a botched update or something. The admins have to repare it, there's nothing you can do but wait.

after clearing cache its ok again.

i am using http, not https.

so it was a short time problem only and i just reloaded the cached page all of the time?
why did it work from the forums index then? its exactly the same link.

anyway, problem solved, thanks.
