... No need -- ChessLive is now working again! (Does someone there read ChessPublishing forum posts ...?)

As far as I am aware this problem has more or less been there over the entire existence of chesslive. Sometimes backtracking the position a few moves finds the games you are looking for, sometimes not. Certainly a bug that would be nice to see fixed.

Incidentally, I've left Chessbase an emailed bug report for a similar observation about 10 days ago. So they are informed about some problems in this area. (Last answer was that they will look after it.)

For me, the very same thing happened when I was doing a position search (Position search e.g. returned only one hit when there were definitely two games in chesslive with the position etc.). However, I sent my requests from within Chessbase 10. So my guess would be that your Java installation is not the problem.

Problems with ChessLive database

Does anyone know why I'm having problems with ChessBase's online database, ChessLive? When I enter a position (common or rare, it makes no difference) and search, after a while it just says "0 games found". Occasionally this has happened to me in the past for short periods and I've always assumed it was because the database was being updated, buit it's been affecting me for several days now. I had a new Java update this morning but that hasn't helped. Anyone had the same problem and know of the solution?
