G'day, mayhem2277, and welcome to Kunena.
The errors were caused by the Joomla extension JotCache: see Problem component JotCache with Kunena 1.7.1 . It sounds like it was a good idea to uninstall that extension.
Your other problem (about the forum going offline) I'm not sure about. It could have something to do with the Kunena template you are using. Do you have the same issues if you use the Blue Eagle template? If you do not have those problems with the Blue Eagle template then you should not use the Integrity Pro Kunena 1.6 which was not developed by the Kunena project team and which was designed for an older version of Kunena. You should probably ask the author of the Integrity Pro Kunena 1.6 if they have made an update for that template.
You seem to have issues with your Kunena menu - which is a Joomla menu. Please read How do I restore my Kunena menu? in order to fix your Joomla menu.
You are using two different extensions for generating SEF URLs: ARTIO JoomSEF and AceSEF and these will probably conflict with one another and with Joomla SEO. I would remove both of them while you are working through your problems.
You do not need My Kunena Forum Menu 1.7.0, Kunena Forum Posts 1.7.0 or Kunena Groups 1.7.0 - all of these are wrong for K 1.7.1 - unless you are using JomSocial. You have not installed JomSocial and therefore you should uninstall those things.
You should also upgrade Kunena Discuss and Kunena Login - the versions you have installed are also wrong for K 1.7.1 0- if you are using those modules. See the download page.
I'm not sure what you mean by your "forums going offline". Do you get a message that says "Forum is offline for maintenance"?

So what just happened to your site right now is what happens ?
I just went back to your site to check on the thread I posted on your forums, and it shows me the "This site is down for maintenance. Please check back again soon." message.

Our approach is always to start with a known, reliable basis. ARTIO JoomSEF complicates issues. If you have issues when you use that extension, you need to contact the ARTIO JoomSEF developers; we know very little about their work.
If you search this forum in relation to problems that people have had with ARTIO JoomSEF you will find that this is not something that people have enjoyed trouble-free. I'm not saying that this is the cause of the problem but it would be sensible to eliminate this from the software soup that might be responsible for the problems that you may be having.
If you don't want to use the Kunena menu, in the way that it's designed to work, that's OK, too. But you should have a good understanding of how Joomla works and what is the recommended advice we've given in relation to using Customised menus .
This is primarily a community-driven, self-help forum. We'll do our best but, if people want to do things in their own particular way, it may take longer to give you the help that you're after. I suggest we start by establishing that your site works, first, without the clutter I've pointed to. Have you made the changes I recommended? If you were to post your configuration report now, would it be any different?

Artio JoomSEF, or rather trying to completely uninstall ARTIO JoomSEF, has been a source of problems for many of those in this community. Even if you have not used ARTIO JoomSEF, your configuration report shows that there's something left behind that Kunena thinks you are still using on your website. We've had discussions in the past on this subject. The problems that people have, in the past, reported about ARTIO JoomSEF have mostly gone away when people have been able to finally rid themselves of that troublesome extension.
Please uninstall My Kunena Forum Menu 1.7.0 and My Kunena Forum Posts 1.7.0. You don't need them.
Please try with the Blue Eagle template. The Integrity Pro Kunena 1.6 is not supported by the Kunena project team. The Kunena project team supports the Blue Eagle template. If you continue to have problems with your forum going offline when using the Integrity Pro Kunena 1.6 template, please contact the author of that template.
I suggest, until you resolve the problem of your forum going offline, you uninistall and complete remove everything related to both ARTIO JoomSEF and AceSEF. I hope that helps.

Let's hope you're right. We will assume for the time being that the issue was caused by ARTIO JoomSEF and that things are stable. If you have problems in the future, please let us know.
