Dhmmawheel was down the whole morning here

Postby Annapurna » Tue Jan 26, 2010 12:03 pm

Just wanted to tell you guys that I couldn't access neither Dhammawheel nor Dharmawheel from 8 to almost 12 pm European time.

I could access all other fora and everything else.

I was quite alerted, needless to say.

Any idea what was wrong?

Ty,

Nothing was wrong. Unstable, unreliable conditions were behaving according to their expected nature.

Ah. I'm glad the site didn't hacked. I thought it may be valuable information, since before E sangha went down, it had short prior disappearances too.

I'm no computer specialist, so pardon my ignorance...

Greetings Annabel,

I believe the server was being rebooted. If you're a member of "Dhamma Wheel on Facebook" on Facebook, then there was a link posted to the hosting provider's run-sheet of events.

We endeavour to use that group as an information source if/when Dhamma Wheel or Dharma Wheel are ever down for decent amounts of time, so as to keep members informed.

Metta,
Retro. :)

Yes, it was the server being rebooted. Here are links to updates:

http://www.webhostingbuzz.com/forum/ss6 ... eboot.html

And if you don't bookmark this and can't get here in the future when DW is down, go to the facebook group page:

http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=9 ... 623&ref=nf

You don't need to be a member of facebook to see the wall posts or links.

It can help with memory issues sometimes... but as for a proper technical explanation, the limits of my knowledge have been reached. :tongue:

The web hoster / server was down for a few hours earlier today. Here is the web hosting forum where updates can be found:

http://www.webhostingbuzz.com/forum/ss6 ... lanta-nap/

Dhamma Wheel on facebook will also have updates, as needed as to the status of Dhamma Wheel.
