Did the site go down?

[Furinkazen]

I have been unable to access GTP for the last hour or so, and so have some others, did the whole site go down?

 

[Famine]

Short answer: Yes.

Long answer: If you cannot access GTP, check on gtplanet.org to see the current server status.

 

[C-ZETA]

I can't access it on the Internet nor Android app but my iPod has survived. GTPlanet.org certainly said it was down though...

And if I'm right, it looks like it may well be back up again.

 

[VTiRoj]

Yeah.

Might want to bookmark this for future downtimes. @GTPlanetStatus

Edit: Tree'd to kingdom come.

I had to console myself by visiting alternative sites...

[gt5fanatec]

It's was maintenance.

Yeah, I went to youtube, found the full version of The Inbetweeners Movie and watched it.

 

[Techy]

I could not stand being away from this site

I'm very sorry for the issues, guys, it's been a rough day. The forums are open now, of course, but we aren't out of the woods yet. As mentioned, please stay tuned to http://gtplanet.org for system status updates.

Major Problems then Jordan? What happened, was it some kind of external intrusion or something?

 

[PHCharls]

I can't access GTP a while ago in my laptop.So yeah it was a maintenance.

Nobody could, which ruined my evening plans.

 

[Brend]

Well, If it helps with the stability of the website I was all for it. 👍

The forums are now back, though the source of the actual problem is still being investigated and they could be closed again shortly.

It's CSI: GTP!

It's CSI: GTP!

YEEEEEEAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!



But seriously is nice to see the site back on again, is quite interesting because there is only an space of time of 1 hour or less each month to maintenance, and today it was like 3 hours or something, something big probably happened, maybe some networking works or something that might have had an effect on the network.

Maybe the network traffic got...

And you got your detective gear on already. You came prepared.

 

[Legendary]

It's was maintenance.

It was not maintenance, maintenance is generally scheduled, this was not.

I do detect that I do detect things because I am detective.

The timings worked surprising well for me. I'd just finished Top Gear, then I saw the site was down, went and did something else, still down, went to bed, then I just woke up and the site's fixed.

No maintenance but a major server issue.

 

[Korza]

Do you have any idea what caused the major issues Jordan?

I cried myself to sleep while repeatedly tapping the refresh button...

 

[Prince.M5]

I didn't notice the site was down, but just about half an hour ago I noticed that the forum is pretty slow. Is there some sort of problems coming back?

 

[Tom]

Problems for myself too, it's running very slow. Problem is, as the Time Zones are so different, Jordan will be asleep at the moment presumably and unaware of the problems.

 

[axletramp]

Veeeerrrrry sloooooooooowwww heeeereeeee. Takes me back to the dial-up days. The site is working, it feels like we're all sharing an access point or something.

 

[Carbonox]

It's really slow around here even though the site's back up :|

 

[Energizerrr]

Slow here too, I'm glad that the site is back.
Did WRS yesterday in the evening, wanted to post results but GTP wasn't working (sadface)...I had to go to bed.

Great job Jordan for restoring it, life's hard without GTPlanet.

 

[mattythedog]

Slow for me too. The app loads very slowly.

 

[Famine]

Jordan's aware of the issues, having spent 9 hours yesterday trying to fix things. We're currently at a state where the forums are open and accessible but slow - which is an improvement on 12 hours ago.
