We’re sorry our servers are over capacity – Tumblr

Date: August 9, 2012 Author: ang Category: Internet Tips Tags: Comments: 1

If you've received the 'tumblr over capacity error' i.e. "We're sorry our servers are over capacity, and certain pages may be temporarily unavailable. We're working quickly to resolve the issue." While trying to use Tumblr, you're not alone. I was in the midst of an important post when I received this error message:

I also got this error message:

"The page that you're looking for used information that you entered. Returning to that page might cause any action you took to be repeated. Do you want to continue?"

Reloading the page got me this Tumblr error message:
This webpage is not available

The connection to www.tumblr.com was interrupted...

All of these messages are caused by Tumblr reaching their server traffic limits. There's not a lot you can do about it except wait for Tumblr to upgrade and avoid heavy traffic hours.
