LoneCrusader Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 Same. It was down here with a SQL Server error from at least 11PM last night to around 4AM US EST(EDT).
dencorso Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 Well... so it seems it was down while I was sleeping, and hence I didn't become aware of it till now.
JorgeA Posted August 3, 2013 Posted August 3, 2013 So you can see dencorso, that you MUST stay on MSFN 24/7, otherwise the website may go down... --JorgeA
allen2 Posted August 3, 2013 Posted August 3, 2013 Perhaps, dencorso went to sleep after shutting down the database server
MagicAndre1981 Posted August 7, 2013 Author Posted August 7, 2013 today it was also down . So the SQL Server issues are stil there. Which SQL server does the forum use? MySQL?
JorgeA Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 Did anybody else have trouble getting on MSFN over the weekend? Every time I tried to visit on Saturday afternoon and Sunday, I got a DNS error. I ended up going to one of those "is my website down?" sites, and it said that MSFN was offline.Might that have had something to do with the SQL server issue discussed in the previous couple of posts? At least we don't seem to have lost any posts this time.--JorgeA

Strange things seem to be happening.
allen2 Posted August 14, 2013 Posted August 14, 2013 I also had the problem and it was indeed at least a dns issue (the dns server owning the domain name were down).
dencorso Posted August 14, 2013 Posted August 14, 2013 I had the same issue. I do think it was more than just dns, because I was equally unable to reach MSFN by IP. In any case, for those of us who happen to also be members of RyanVM's forum, we now have a thread there (thanks to tomasz86) to regroup and exchange information on the status of MSFN, should the need ever arise again.

Stickied the thread in General Discussion.

Yep, DNS was not available and direct IP Address also failed. Not just a DNS issue. I checked the Twitter and Facebook MSFN sites, nothing was posted. Funny thing was that I actually checked for a thread at RyanVM but did not find one Friday night and Saturday, that one was started Sunday I think.
