Yeah, I have the same problem. Its Apache thats down, I just checked.

Safari can’t open the page.

[jasper]

even though in account manager it shows http as online now (was offline this morning) I still cannot access my primary domain, or cpanel from http://x10hosting.com/account, or anybody elses x10 site. Is there still a problem, I only registered here on friday/saturday, so a little unsure on the procedure for reporting this, another post raised today http://forums.x10hosting.com/showthread.php?t=25649 says its been fixed, is anybody else having problems still?


edit: sorry, my mistake,, seems that i can not connect to it from my work PC, just logged into home pc and its fine, anybody know a reason for this

 

[CrownVictoriaCop]

Same problem here.

 

[jasper]

yes,, apache http server is offline again on ip 70.86.238.114. (although i dont seem to be able to access the cpanel or website from work pc) ive connected to home pc, which i know i can normally connect from, and its the same this morning. what ports are required to be open for access to cpanel/websites.

I have left a message with the Admin to look into this matter. Please keep this issue to one thread, so we can keep track of what is going on, and to whom it is going on to.

 

[CrownVictoriaCop]

It's working for me now.

 

[Archkronos]

It back! Yaayyy!

 

[Corey]

I restarted it about 7:30AM; Not sure why it went down the past two nights, if anything happens it should auto restart itself. We'll keep an eye on it tonight and see if it happens again.

 

[DracoGuard]

YAYs as i need to have a certain link posted somewhere at a certain time but it keeps going down 5 minutes before the time i needed the link posted >.<

someone is only only for a little while and i want to be sure she gets the link so i am going to have a crap load of friends spam the link to her so she sees it for sure XD

 

[CrownVictoriaCop]

Just as predicted, the server is down tonight AGAIN!

 

[jasper]

yes,, seems to be every morning (UK) but none of the other services are affected, ftp ect

 

[DracoGuard]

every morning at 2:30 AM Central time which is really ANNOYING -_-

how am i supposed to spam a broken link ;-;

 

[jaesta]

every day the same thing

 

[Starshine]

Corey or one of the Admin's are probably well aware of the issue. So, continued posting that it is happening every morning, probably doesn't get it fixed much faster.
Just be thankful that - considering this is a free hosting service, that the staff is willing to work on issues as quickly as possible.

But please remember, the staff are volunteers, and we ( probably like yourself ) have real life matters to attend to as well, and can't always get to the issues as quickly as you'd like ... or be able to explain why something is happening. Corey was as puzzled as everyone else :

Not sure why it went down the past two nights

Thank you, though, for letting us know about this issue. Again, we will do our best to get it corrected as soon as possible.

On a side note, I am a little concerned by something posted. DracoGuard, you stated :

someone is only only for a little while and i want to be sure she gets the link so i am going to have a crap load of friends spam the link to her so she sees it for sure

I guess I am puzzled why it will take a "crap load" of friends to send a link to someone? Thats what IM's are for ( a few have offline message abilities ) or e-mail. To require a bunch of people to send a link to someone ( as you stated to "spam" her ) could technically be considered illegal.

 

[duckyinc]

It's a guess but I think the apache upgrade has something to do with it...

 

[axyjo]

Any rouge cron jobs?

 

[duckyinc]

I don't think cron jobs can shut down http on apache or else it would be a big security issue. But on the other hand the timing of the down times looks systematic.

Now I'm confused :nuts:
