Hi Karen,

I got that message two days ago :-(

In reply to a post I made on Genes Reunited on Facebook asking when it would be fixed, I got this message from someone on there:-

"Weekend/Bank Holiday - there will be no-one working now until the holidays are over"

I just wish I had a twitter account so I could tweet Chris van der Kuyl the
CEO Brightsolid regarding the appalling service we are receiving

Received the following fairly standard reply from Support @GR rather late last night:

"Thank you for taking the time to report this problem.

I have passed the details of this specific issue to our technical team to look at and investigate.

Your patience while we work to resolve this is much appreciated."

My patience ran out some time ago.

When I got up this morning I was hoping to do some work on my tree and that the problem with exporting to a GEDCOM file would have been resolved. After the events of the past 8 days I should have known better than to count my chickens before they hatched, because when I tried to export my tree as a GEDCOM file I still cannot do this :-(

All I get is this - "Your tree is currently being processed. Please wait until your tree returns to the ready state before exporting another GEDCOM file"

Last update I saw about this was Alisdair's post yesterday saying "Admin did say that they would reset the Gedcom generator ( or something similar) but that was some hours ago"

This has been the status for nearly 2 days and I do not want to add anything on my tree until this is fixed as I always make a back up to a GEDCOM file to avoid the possibly of loosing any new stuff I have added.

Anyone got any update on the situation?

thanks for the replies hopefully they will sort it out soon as it seems they have reset the tree because there were problems only to cause another

Although the "Access to tree " problem appears to have been resolved, this problem is still ongoing.

Admin did say that they would reset the Gedcom generator ( or something similar) but that was some hours ago.

I added several ancestor Baptism records yesterday, but am reluctant to add anything more to my tree until I can be sure that I am able to export my tree to another program that I can use off line ( such as in the local County Records Office which has no wifi access)
