Anyone else having trouble getting the webpage www.oolite.org to load?

Posted: **Fri Aug 28, 2009 2:04 am**

Yep it just loads to a blank page. Then again, I have the most messed up internet here (comcast) and so it might just be me.

Posted: **Fri Aug 28, 2009 2:06 am**

Yeah. I get a page to load, but blank source.

Ditto.

Totally blank. No source code, as reported above!

Who let the trumbles in!?

The DNS configuration for oolite.org does not match my specifications. I have filed a complaint with the appropriate party.

Also: grr.

Thanks everyone. I'm glad it wasn't just me.

It seems it may be a serious conceptual mess-up on my part. Yay DNS.

*Waits for DNS propagation again*

Things are improving.. kinda.. instead of a blank page, now I get

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

DNS can be fun sometimes..

It's not so bad really, but as your post suggests, wrapping your head around some of the concepts involved can take a bit of effort..

That was a temporary crossed wires thing – I’m switching from www.oolite.org redirecting to oolite.org to the other way around. Unfortunately, the host’s “convenient” setup scripts messed up a different setting in the process…

OK, it now works from here.

It works here now.

0800 UT sunday approx

BB (link from oolite page) not working but no trouble getting www.oolite.org, after it recovered (about 12 hours earlier)

access possible by linking through an e-mail topic notification page: that worked OK

Moderator: linkified oolite.org because the auto-link confusingly included the trailing comma.
