Has it been down long?

I don't get it, it shows ok http://www.websitenotworking.com/amibay.com
But doesn't work for me either... :/

fitzsteve · 11 June 2011, 12:37

OMG - What am I going to do now!

mfilos · 11 June 2011, 12:47

@Shoonay
The fact that website is working is true. Amibay is online (not a server down issue or a DNS issue) but the config.php file that holds the connections to MySQL database is either corrupt or intentionally down for website to be off. How can a dynamically forum be on without a database?

I guess it's gonna be ok in few hours

Panic!! - it must be panic time if you're posting here!

DonAmiga · 11 June 2011, 12:56

Here's is a quote from over at classicamiga "The domain is reachable. That isn't the problem. Looks like either one of the other admins has been messing with the site's config files on the server, or the site got hacked."

Own up, who was it?

ElectroBlaster · 11 June 2011, 13:02

Why would anyone hack amibay?

Dam I was sorting something out with somebody... cant remember if they have my email arrghhhh...

Hopefully it will be back up soon.

Because you can. Script lamers doesn't usually require any other reason to destroy someones site. I don't think "hacking" is what's up with amibay anyway.

gulliver · 11 June 2011, 15:21

It´s back and running.

cosmicfrog · 11 June 2011, 18:31

yay I missed all the fun sleeping and fixing dads pc

but I`ll think I will panic anyway, ribbit ribbit ribbit

digiflip · 15 June 2011, 08:02

down again lol

mfilos · 15 June 2011, 08:57

Ye it must be for some time now. I don't see any message though (webserver isn't responding)... I guess something's wrong with DNS or the actual webserver...
I hope it'll be up soon

DNS is up and good, server is definitely listening on port 80, it's just not responding anything.

Irritatingly, I don't have the login details here. I'm afraid for the time-being, we're awaiting Harrison coming on-line and poking about.

Sorry guys
