Arch servers are down?!?

[floke]

Anyone else unable to connect to Archlinux.org, the aur, or anything else Arch related?

[cardinals_fan]

I confirm that archlinux.org is down.

Confirmed x2.

[chucky chuckaluck]

a dark day in paradise.

[LinuxGuy1234]

Confirmed.

[Barrucadu]

Panic!

The repos were acting up earlier, I couldn't download any packages, but they seem fine now. However now archlinux.org is borked :(

[SomeGuyDude]

Yeah this is proving problematic, as I had some works to be doing and required the assistance of ye old wiki...

[OutOfReach]

Down for me too. :|

[SomeGuyDude]

Anyone have any actual information on what's going on? Surely there's got to be SOME contact with the Arch people.

if you really need an update now, try irc. i think the room is on freenode - hit google for more info

[chousho]

I haven't been able to connect for a while. I'm hoping they come back up soon.

Also, here's a nice tool to check if a site isn't working for you only or if it's for everybody:

This is odd - I can't access the servers but I can sucessfully ping them?
Take a look at this... I iz confuzzled.

[rhcm123]

The traceroutes are working too

[doorknob60]

I know, and right when I need a package from AUR, been waiting all day and it's still down :-(

[handy]

Servers are still down.

Ubuntu was down today (for me at least) for a while today also?

[zephyrus17]

It seems they're down.

Also a heads up for you all, the latest updates involving the gnome group destroyed my avant-window-navigator. Some applets don't load and I can't open the dock preferences.

[Amranu]

Heh, I wiped out my arch install yesterday too, so I still need to get a bunch of things setup, specifically cpu frequency scaling and disabling the touchpad while typing.

Ah well, for now back to the thing which destroyed the install - Windows Server 2008 Enterprise x64

[lukjad007]

Still down from here.

[Amranu]

So does anyone remember how to setup cpu frequency scaling? This is annoying :/

[qpieus]

Man this stinks. I wonder what happened. I need to update my notes on stuff I did after installation, so I need the wiki to come back.

[chucky chuckaluck]

does arch have an irc channel (are they called "channels"?)?

[benerivo]

I think these (http://216.239.59.104/search?q=cache:pYQEsQEb2uwJ:www.archlinux.org/irc/+arch+irc+channel&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=1&gl=uk) are the channels.

thanks. (now all i have to do is figure out how to use irssi.)

have you tried google cache?

archwiki cpu frequency scaling

google the above and its the first link for me..

: )

[Amranu]

I just went on irc

The wayback machine is also of some use too.

Don't forget to use the "text-only version" link, otherwise it sticks.

[hessiess]

Hopfally it will come back soon...
I ran an update yesterday, but now firefox and wicd are segfaulting:(

[human]

What're the odds it happens on the day that I choose to install Arch to a USB stick after not using linux for over 3 months??? :(

[lukjad007]

([Number of hours the arch server was offline]/[Number of hours the Arch server was online])/(Number of hours you it would take you to do it.)
There you go. (I think that's right. If anyone wants to check out my logic, feel free.)

Np folks, my pleasure.

[markp1989]

whats the chances of it happening the day after i install arch, and i really need the wiki

I'm sure that there are other copies of the tutorial on the net.

[AltF4]

markp1989, i bet if you search the topic on google, that you will find a cached copy of the arch wiki page. Once on the cached page it will probably lock up and stop loading, just click text only and you can read the wiki contents.

[R00KIE]

Yeah down .... maybe just a router problem. Happened before it seems on November of last year.
As soon as it comes back online I'm going to get myself an offline copy of the wiki, thats for sure. Just in case something like this happens again .... (like it did to the gentoo folks, they kind of lost their wiki :( )

[AltF4]

ITS BACK, YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! Man did i miss AUR.

[Barrucadu]

Yay!

[OutOfReach]

Nice! :)

[Darkade]

Yesterday I couldn't reach the servers,(ping did, but firefox nor opera could open teh wiki or the main site) today they're up and running.

[Grant A.]

Everyone knows why they were really down.
