Website was down today


(Gabe “No Dogma, Only Science Please!” ) #1

I tried it a few times between 4pm and 6pm Australian EST, and got a “Safari can’t find the server” error. Site seemed to be totally down. Back up now 6pm. Just FYI.

I didn’t notice a complete shutdown, but I have been experiencing the odd glitch here and there.

Here in Vancouver, it did not go down for me. But I have experienced over the last few weeks frequently it is very slow to respond, especially when I post a comment. I’ve been getting a lot of 502 Bad Gateway errors while posting.

Yeah this is the first time in years I’ve seen a total shutdown. And I would say that, about half the time, I get that 502 error when trying to post a reply

I get 502 error sometimes when I post a reply too, oh well, it was worse in May 2020 when the site was down for days on end, would come back up for a few hours and then crash again…the MOMENT I was about to post a thread. :no_mouth::sweat_smile:
