Website problems last night? AGAIN!!

[ballaratdragons]

Last night (Tuesday) I could not get IceInSpace to open. I thought it was a net problem but every other site opened :confused:

Then I got an email from Laurie asking me if I experienced the same thing as he did - "IceInSpace wouldn't open".

What happened last night to cause this?????

Thanks Ken, I'm glad someone mentioned it as I thought it might have been my server, I found it took ages to access a thread and then I couldn't get any thing at all, I gave it away in the end. astroron :thumbsup:

What time?

I was on and off for most of the afternoon/night until about 7:30pm and it was fine.

It's likely the server that IceInSpace is hosted on had problems, it happens from time to time. I wish it didn't happen at all, but I have no control over it.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

add me, it was late, around 10pm or 11, lost track of time, very frustrating SWMBO was asleep on the loung leaving me to go for it on the net!

I can confirm and I'm on the octopus cable. The site was reachable (got some ping replies at around 250ms) but very slow; too slow even for a text-only browser.

It started approx 10pm Mike.

Ditto Ken and I gave up around 12

Yes, the hosting server died. I don't know what the problem was.

It nice to know that the ice in space family is such a close knit group we even do computer glitches together :P Me 7

[astroron]

Whats going on, 2 outages in three days? is it anything to do with the virus affecting Microsoft 2000?

[iceman]

Most unlikely, the site is hosted on a linux box.

I'll get in touch with the server host and try to see why it's been a bit flakey the last few nights.
