Pandora Site Problem

[wiimario]

Does anyone knows what's going in with the site openpandora.org when I go on the site it appears this message:

Object not found!

The URL doesn't exist on this server. If you have handwritten the URL control if there aren't any errors please.

If you think that it's an error of the server please contact the webmaster.

Probably it's under maintenance. Now appears this message: "Sorry for the inconvenience. We will be back soon! "

There was a problem with this site a little while ago too.

It says this now:

Access forbidden!

You don't have permission to access the requested directory. There is either no index document or the directory is read-protected.

If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.

I guess the changes mean that their working on it.

At least the forum(which is a part of the same server) is up now. Man... PressText.de or what ever must have really sent a lot of viewers here.

Its this now:

Access forbidden!

I'm still seeing what Mawler sees. Let's just chill and check it in an hour or two; I'm sure that everyone continually hitting refresh isn't going to make their work go faster.

 

[kloplop321]

Nope, but I think that it should be up pretty soon as it isn't the default server stuff anymore. ED's probably a little stressed out now.

Had no access to gp32x.de since yesterday here - good to be back

Hmm... it's down for me too. Maybe there's some huge update coming!

No, the media coverage from PressText overloaded and crashed the server that ED was using to host all these sites..
No company would take down ALL of its servers just for an update like that.

Here's a translated version of the culprit article, for anyone interested: http://translate.google.com/translate?js=y&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.presstext.com%2Fnews%2F091128009%2Fpandora-open-source-spielehandheld-startbereit%2F&sl=de&tl=en

My bad, it is 'pressetext.de'
if you payed attention to the german blog
http://www.pandoratoday.de/scenenews/pandora-in-der-presse/
you will see that it is a media site.

The members of the German board are rather bored about this presstext news.

 

[srusoff]

Its not just www.openpandora.org you can not access, take a look at www.gbax.com, the left side of the screen is gone, no menu options

So what does this mean.

 

[kloplop321]

I don't pay attention to the german board, only the english board along with the blogs, as the german one seems to catch more than the english one does.

 

[borgqueenx]

they are shutting down the pandora project and are getting away with all your money!

Catch more... what? Isn't catching more a good thing?
