M3Server down? (again?)
 

It was down 3 hours yesterday and now I can't access our sites or http://www.m3server.com/ Is it working for anyone else?

I can access http://www.m3server.com

Down here from Sweden :(

Might be some kind of DNS issue?

Is it working for anyone else?

Since you are checking this thread, is it so damn hard to reply with a yes it's working or no it's not working and your location? Thank you :)

Apparently it also works from Belgium... Any swedes here who can test it?

wish i was in sweden...but up for me

Trust me, with this damn weather you don't wanna be in Sweden right now, come here in the summer instead. Thanks for checking though :)

Anna_O - if it's your link you want us to test ( www.annasdungeon.com ) It works for me - location, Montreal

Well, it seems to be working for everybody than me. Thanks for checking :)

M3 site is down here in aussie land ...my server looks up and just as well .. but anyway 4 more days im out of there ..had enough :disgust

Down in the UK

Down here in the UK - 21.15 GMT

Just came up DNS error for me in NY state.. dammit!

Can't get to it from New Orleans.

fuck yeah all is down here again WTF are they doing over there :mad:

called corey 3rd time theyve got a power failure the 1st was lightning the 2nd a truck who ripped the powerlines and no this... man man im not happy i know they cant do shit but iwas just updating stuff...

Do you no how long this time they going to be ... they seem to use that power outage shit a lot its getting old

nope, i called heard all the UPSses beep i know they can hold for 30 mins but usually its a few hrs sucks, im gonna talk to corey bout a refund this is costing us too much

postedit : if you wanna talk icq 16 91 547 ill let you know what corey said we gotta work this out for sure

Huh? You were told the outage the other day was a second power outage from a truck ripping down a pole? You're joking right?

dantheman posted it was a completely different issue, so I want to be clear is all.

Here is a partial paste of what Danny said the other day:

"There was a packet storm created by a breakdown in the spanning tree algorithm in our Ethernet switches. We are
monitoring the network closely to determine if this was a result of
malicious activity, or just an abnormal occurrence."

Is this what you were told but you thought a tree branch took out a powerline or something?

i added you ...i dont no whats going but its the 3rd time my box down this week... if thats 3 power outages in week fuck :1orglaugh

I almost went with m3server a few years ago....glad I didn't now.

I didn't like the idea that the main pipe into their building was from bellsouth.net
That just seemed funny to me.

Power outtage sounds like a bullshit answer to me....data centers are supposed to have backup generators that can run for 24+ hours, and the wires into the building should be underground.

up and down from here. Canada.

So who did you go with for your hosting?

It's working here now, although slow... Don't really know what to do, it's a lot of work to move everything to another server... Would help if someone from M3 contacted it's customers (they do have our emails after all...) and explained the situation.

Yeah thats true i emailed them yesterday about that and said why they not contact us about it no reply ...
pretty easy then if they dont want to answer they dont want my biz

Anna, when you change hosts you get the new host to move all of your shit....you shouldn't have to do it yourself.

you need to go with a real awesome host like phatservers

Lol same old story they been having power issues for years! Everytime they go down it's something to do with power. That's the least thing you all should be concerned with ... afterall isn't ALABAMA one of those states where the community standard does NOT allow porn?

All data centers should have backup generators that can run for a longggggg time.

Like someone else said, if you change hosts the new host should move everything for you.

Good luck!

If you decide to look for a new host contact Brad at mojohost.com and see what they can do for you.

I moved from M3 to www.splitinfinity.com after M3 dishonored my hosting package and upped the prices on me considerably.

Travis actually emailed my saying that he was going to cancel my hosting with them because I was using the full allotment of bandwidth that I was paying for in my original deal... Thank god I moved from them after that...

Chris from Splitinfinity will move you over with no downtime and they are super super fast servers... :thumbsup
