[Gavino]

Anyone else having problems connecting to the Doom9 forum (http://forum.doom9.org)?
I have been unable to access it for the last 24 hours.

It's not just you! http://forum.doom9.org looks down from here.

I confirm that. forum.doom9.org has been "off the air" since
08:00 GMT of yesterday.

Wasn't it down saturday also?

Sourceforge has also problems, you can't upload files. Like I saw MPCHC 1.5.0 but you will just get a tiny part of the file when you download. And free-codecs.com is also down now and then....what's happening out there....

[Ai Haibara]

Sourceforge's servers were the target of an attack, apparently: http://sourceforge.net/blog/sourceforge-net-attack/ A number of the services there are reportedly still down.

[AlanHK]

However, http://www.doom9.org/ is up, but that hasn't been updated for over a year.

but that hasn't been updated for over a year.

Thats because Doom9 moved all news to the News section of the forum rather than posting daily updates on the web page. Now members can make News and Update posts.

Since the web page is up and forum is down means they had another server issue. It will be back up.

Now, the only question is,

¿ WHEN will it be back ?

[KiwiKid]

Free Codecs is now http://codecs.com/

I don't know.

I wonder if any of the doom9 regulars or mods will find this thread and let us know?

A google search for Doom9 forum down brings this thread up near the top.


It's amazing how much I use the doom9 forums for information and reference - there's lots of unique information there. And none of it is available in the internet archive because the whole lot is flagged as not for archiving (or has been for a few years at least - the very old stuff in partially there). It would be a very great shame to lose it all.

Cheers,
David.

http://doom10.org/index.php?topic=1261.msg6222#msg6222 says:

To my knowledge, the guy responsible for the server is on holiday right now, so that might be reason why resolving the outage takes longer than usual.

You know, Murphy's Law and so on

Also, if anybody cares, the German server is still up and running:

^ Possibly, Swede is spending his vacation in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil,
and therefore he will be back only after <DEL>the Carnival</DEL> Easter

[manono]

It seems to be back now.

[El Heggunte]

Four days and some hours later,

the f***ing forum is back

[Atak_Snajpera]

Can you guys connect to forum.doom9.org?





according to http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/http://forum.doom9.org/index.php
forum is online

[coasthi]

Just tried it and it's working OK must of only been down for short time

[Atak_Snajpera]

It hasn't been working for me for 2 days now. All other sites work (doom10.org for example). I'm checking now and still no connection

[manono]

Working for me also.

Atak - Check to see if you can get DNS information on forum.doom9.org. Some months ago I found out that my ISP tries to block access to certain websites by not allowing DNS to work on requests for those sites. I changed my DNS to OpenDNS (Google also has a free DNS service you can use) and my access was restored.
