Anyone else who have had posting problems today?
For a number of hours, I only got Preview but no Post button without getting any error message.
If my mail server was down, I would have expected to get a red text saying that the mail address is invalid. And in this case, I did try with two different email addresses.
No error message was shown, but I couldn't get past the Preview.
If I removed the Summary, I got a red error message. If I removed the MCU, I got a red error message. If I entered a bogus email address, I got a red error message.
But when I did do everything "by-the-book" I didn't get an error message but only got the "Preview" button.
Yesterday I experienced the problems you described. Today I was able to post, although it was from a different location and system.
Per, If you use a web proxy, like I'm doing now - there is no problem whatsoever :-) This has something to do with Keil's administration, I suspect.
Can't remember if it was yesterday, or Saturday - but I certainly had that problem!
I did send a mail to Keil support, but I haven't got any response. But at least my "black-listing" magically ended after a couple of hours.
Keil just acknowledged the reception of the support mail.
I didn't had the problem yesterday, so it may be something that happens randomly and affects a user for a couple of hours - problem with cookie?
Well, that's the way the cookie crumbles...
Last evening, I was locked out at home instead. Bto different email addresses blocked. And switching between IE or Firefox didn't matter. Now, a couple of hours later, I'm sudenly able to post again.
Almost these three days, I can't post any comment, even after you have recovered posting. Neither deleting cookies nor proxy didn't work. I sent a protest mail to KEIL support. After receiving a reply that they'll pass the mail to webmaster, my account was recovered. Does they have a "black list" of SPAMMERs?

I couldn't, but can now
Thanks for bearing with us. We have discovered the problem and message posting is now working as it should.
As you might guess, the Keil site is hosted on a web farm which includes multiple web servers. A recent security patch caused one of these machines to block access site access to some of our web components that had to do with the forum. That's why some people could post and some could not.
It took quite a while to figure out what the culprit was. But, we did get that figured out late yesterday. We're sorry for the inconvenience this caused many of you.
You should not be experiencing any posting problems at this time. If you are, please contact us through the feedback forms on this site.
