Free hosting server down.
« on: July 18, 2011, 06:27:29 AM »

The free hosting server isn't responding to any Apache requests (just pings and traceroutes).

Completely fails from hosttracker etc. so it isn't just me.

Same here, has happened so often during the last days, off for several hours, then working again until the next check and off again. Host-tracker.com shows off too at all destinations.
In addition, sometimes I can't open the site from my IP only, but when checking in proxy servers, the site works. Support is kind and quick, but the suggestions are not working with me, as I am told that

- the firewall can block me for a certain amount of time if I have too many wrong password logins or
- I can also be blocked if I try to have more than 10 ftp connections at the same time from the same IP.


but I have saved my pass in the FTP client and use always one connection only and the problem is not editing but only viewing the site, which is not possible so often.

Anyone else having this problem and found a solution already? Is there a place where announcements are made in case the server is down? I am aware of the fact, that I am using a free hosting with free service, but the best free service is worthless if people can't enter the site later....

Thanks in advance for any reply or help!  :smilie:

We were upgrading the servers over night - they should be back up now.

What is your site url? Third party trackers like host-tracker.com are not showing any down time.

Yes, free hosting is most definitely down at the moment.

There isn't a status page anywhere. If the server goes down, they generally restart it as soon as they notice. If it takes them 8 hours to notice, there's little point them posting a "server down - server restarted" message after the event. Having said that, I would like to see more use of the announcements thread in here, especially where the outage is going to be known in advance for stuff like maintenance or upgrades (see 5 messages earlier in this thread for an example of where an announcement could have been made in advance).
