I am experienceing outages all day (sunday 13 november 2005)

[h0ughy]

has anyone else been experienceing outages? I have lost posts and replies to people all day, on 3 separate PC's one with Linux running.

Is this a site issue or the telecommunications providers?

[33South]

Running like a dog here since lunchtime, still is 22:44 lots of timeouts. Other sites seem OK.

h0ughy got your pm, sent a reply I hope, took several attempts.

Just connected again 22.55, but so sloooooow last attempt tonight.

I've been in the same boat all afternoon. Have been getting plenty of "server not founds" & long waits for pages to display.

[RB]

Yes same here too.

Houghy have you been working on your new puzzle and have drained all our computing power?

It's the Houghy@home project..... :scared: :lol:

[janoskiss]

I just got online a little while ago, and if it was any other site I would have already pulled the plug on it. It's a shocker.

[33South]

Still bad...

[iceman]

I've sent an email, hopefully it will be fixed soon.

We're also still planning the move to the new server ASAP, just also mindful of minimising risk during the competition launch period etc.

Apologies for the inconvenience, but fortunately it's been quite stable (and fast) for the last couple of months. Hopefully we'll return to that before we upgrade to the new server.

The sites a shocker this morning.
It's running like a crippled slug !

[h0ughy]

finally got back on, RB thanks for the sendup.

Mike, well, I hope you can organise to get things rectified shortly. There are lots of frustraited IIsers out there who want to know the details of the 350D

[Stu]

Yay! Finally got back on. First time in 35 and 1/2 hours! (Not that I'm counting!)
Even though the pages take about 5mins to load it doesn't bother me too much as long as it gets back to normal eventually.

[Exfso]

Ditto to all of the above.

:confuse3:

[iceman]

Sorry guys, apparently the hosts did some planned maintenance and it went bad.

They're working on the problem and hopefully will be back to normal soon-ish?

Oh well i'm getting more work done today :)

[Striker]

I am starting to go crazy...I dont know what to do with myself...all of a sudden I have all this spare time...I dont like it mike....fix it...lol

[janoskiss]

Lesson learned. Should always have a printout of the entire "what would you do if iceinspace went offline" thread handy to help us get through such harsh times.

[h0ughy]

Why not try the wordsearch of all who have more than 50 posts :lol: :P http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/showthread.php?t=5374 :nerd:

[xstream]

I now have no finger nails left. :)

[slice of heaven]

:rofl:
I did :lol:

[rowena]

I'm still having problems this afternoon. I went into iceinspace.com.au/forums first up, didnt like that, so went to iceinspace.com.au and then clicked on fourms and got through that way!

[asimov]

It's just taken me 6 hrs to get in here, lol

[h0ughy]

What did you think of it? :)

[RB]

Hey guys,

This is the first time I've been able to get on properly since yesterday!
Sorry for not replying to your posts, I'll try and get around to them ASAP.

I think my system has a problem too but not sure yet.

I'll catch up soon.

:prey:

[33South]

Just came back to normal here, first time since yesterday lunchtime.

[h0ughy]

woo hoo full speed ahead

[h0ughy]

While I think of it a big thank you to Mike for jumping up and down and getting those nice techies to fix it for us! Thanks Guys we were suffering the bends without this site at full steam!

[gaa_ian]

Yay IIS is back in business... :nerd:

[janoskiss]

For just long enough to say goodbye to fellow members and learn to cope with the loss. It's been fun everyone. Thanks.
PS. Ken, are we still having some sort of a iceinspace memorial astro camp next year?

[h0ughy]

Off topic greatly:confuse3: but are you going somewhere?

[janoskiss]

Uhmmm, nothing. Just that after over 24 hours of iceinspace deprivation I was beginning to think the end is nigh...

[iceman]

nah we're back in business guys.

Apologies for the outages, but as I said, it was a hosting problem with the provider - they had some scheduled maintenance that went bad.

Man yesterday was frustrating! I shared your pain!

[Itchy]

Mike
Still very slow this morning though.

Cheers

[iceman]

It's working fast (and fine) for me this morning Tony?

Anyone else having probs?

[slice of heaven]

Working fine here.

[GrampianStars]

G'day All
Very slow on BigPond ADSL with time-outs still happening :zzz2:

[33South]

Sydney CBD - very slow. :sad:

[xstream]

Verrrry Verrrry slow here on Bog Pond.

[RB]

It's perfect again. Thank you. :prey:

[Striker]

Thanks to the outage's I have had time to do some work around the house.

Thanks alot Mike... :wink2: :wink2: :wink2: grrrrrrrrr

Next time I'm taking Legal action....lol

[Starkler]

Ive been in Sydney the last two days on business. It looks like I picked the right time :)

[asimov]

wed. 2am.....Getting timeouts galore, also got disconnected twice so far tonight. :mad2: (rotten BIG pond)

[iceman]

Sounds like bigpond is having an issue - must be a providers issue because at work all day yesterday, as well as at home on iinet, was perfectly fine.

[GrampianStars]

G'day A''
Happy Star-Geezer now
All back to speed :nerd:
