Narf, isn't your password "Cheese"? And if so, how could you forget it?

6:34 EST Down!

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

Not down. DNS is down, but the IP works.

EDIT:
http://69.3.206.249/

no, i use semi-random letters and numbers.

it's beyond me why anyone would use an easily-guessable word.

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

Ok, it's gonna be down for a bit now while I rearrange some stuff.

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

Right. 10:45 PM EST and still down. Oh well, there's always tomorrow...I think. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

Or today. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Ok, back up. New IP address. http://24.145.157.194/

You can click that directly, or follow the link on teh redirect page. Tommorow morning sometime the DNS should get redirected and things will be back to normal.

THanks for your patience.

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

Can it be confirmed PBW is down again?

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">I'm getting in ok. Doesn't mean it wasn't down for a bit when you tried before though. Try again.

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

Geo I can not get in without the IP address. The http://pbw.cc link goes to the choice page then a 404

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

I just tried, no luck.

http://seiv.pbw.cc/graphic/index.jsp

It was not working earlier today as well.

IP direct works, just not the "seiv" link in my Favorites.

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

just went in,

working fine for me with the IP adress.

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

You guys can't go direct to your graphic and text links that you have stored.

If you go to http://seiv.pbw.cc/ it will redirect you to a page with a link to the new ip. That is http://24.145.157.194/

Or you can go direct to http://24.145.157.194/

Or you can go to http://24.145.157.194/graphic/index.jsp
or
http://24.145.157.194/text/index.jsp
if you prefer.

The seiv.pbw.cc isn't pointing to the new IP yet. Once that gets done, sometime today, everything will be back to normal.

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

And now the DNS is starting to propgate back to the server. I can reach it direct with http://seiv.pbw.cc now. If you can't yet, you will be able to soon.

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

Is PBW unable to send email at this point? I generated a new turn, but received none of the usual emails that used to come with that.

PvK

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

It may be having some difficulty. I had a guy tell me he couldn't get an email with his password. I'll have to check that out.

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

Ok, email should be working now.

By the way, can someone give RTC a try and verify for me that it's working?

Geoschmo

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

Going to seiv.pbw.cc isn't working for me. But I opened up RTC and it connects just fine and shows all of my games.

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

http://seiv.pbw.cc/graphic/index.jsp works now http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Ok, well the only way that makes sense is if your browser is reading fmom Cache or something, since RTC connects to the seiv.pbw.cc as well. Unless you put the ip in the tools/options. If you did, then it's just that the DNS hasn't gotten around to you yet. If you've got seiv.pbw.cc in RTC tools/options, then you need to get your browser to refresh.

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">That's what I was thinking so I refreshed it and still nothing. RTC is set up using the seiv.pbw.cc address to connect to.

Ok, I just tried using IE to open it and it works fine. But refreshing Mozilla Firebird is still not working. I may have to clear the Cache manually.

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

when i try to upload my koth turn, pbw wants to download 'gameupload' to me.

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

Is this problem still going on Narf? When did it start? What browser are you using. Have you tried the graphic and the Text UI's?

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

i'm not sure when it started, i think i had it with the P&N game to, but it dissapeared after a while. it dissapeared sometime Last night, because i just uploaded the koth turn(please come back, David) and it worked. i opened up 'gameupload', something i should have done sooner and got this 'Cannot execute player command: Filename uploaded was unexpected; expecting: kothnva_0001.plr', which is exactly what it was named.

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

Hmm, looks like there is some memory problems in PBW server.

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Ya, I saw that too. Kicked it. Looks better now. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

Good, thanks.

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

GeoSchmo,

I am uploading a replacement turn for "Space Empires 101" game on PBW, and I keep getting the following error:

Cannot execute player command: Could not read input: java.io.IOException: Posted content length of 1248344 exceeds limit of 1048576

The actual GAM file is pretty big...could this be the cause? (it's 1219 Kb)...

Help?

Thanks,

Alarik

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

Ya, it's down. Working on it.

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

Works fine for me.

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

Yes, it's back up now.

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

PBW down again? Can not access the site even using the IP number.

Re: One of many threads about PBW outage issues
 

I just got the same error. It was up half an hour ago. It usually doesn't seem to stay down long with this error.
