Topic: Complete PA block Posted: June 11 2010 at 09:38 |
Our Special Collab Slava from Lithuania is unable to access PA since yesterday. The site doesn't show up at all. The error he receives is "server unavailable". His internet works fine and no other site gives him this problem.
May this be because of the server maintenance done yesterday and today? |

Yes. Sleepwalker posted on MMA that he couldn't access PA. He said that he sent you a PM. |

Is it possible someone (their ISP, company) is blocking them for over-use of PA ?

I asked Slava to check with his ISP for a possible block, I'll post his reply here.

'Service unavailable' happened to me too...I don't mean on re-indexing of the database M@X did on June the 2nd, but two days ago again. However, everything was back in order after half an hour.

I strongly believe there is some DNS issues around the world.
On MAY there was a major upgrade the INTERNET (DNS, Routers, ISP) this still may affect some users worldwide. Otherwise , I am really confused. |

It is just really weird that MMA and PA are on the same server and one can be accessed and one can't.

Lithuania 1 case, Netherlands 2 cases, Croatia 1 case - a European issue apparently.

I forced a update to the DNS record of www.progarchives.com , should take 24h to be propagated
wordlwide ... Some ISP seem to have lost a link to PA.

Colin from Big Block 454 (see interview) which is sitting in Manchester, England reported the same issue to me early this morning. I thought he was joking. I now see he was not joking. Strange thing is that our IPs are in the same geographic area, but I am able to write these lines.
