RX8ownersclub.co.uk down?

I can't get onto the site or the forum - is it just me or is there a problem?

Are you sure you are not seeing cached pages? Is anyone posting on the forums at the moment?

Due to demand the site has outgrown the account that was initially set up for it.

After discussions with the provider we agreed to move up to the next level of account and the provider promised us this was possible with no loss of service.

This was due to happen today, and seems to have been done, unfortunatly the supplier seems to have broken their word and caused us to lose our site.

Craig is on the phone to them now demanding they have the site back up and running asap, and believe me he's not a happy bunny.

We are very sorry that this has happend, but if we hadn't upgraded the account we would have over run our bandwith allocation in a few weeks, and that would have resulted in an even worse situation.

Please bear with us, I'm sure Craig will post an update as soon as possible in this thread.

Hmmm. I'm still getting some "weird stuff" (technical term) going on with the owners club site.

If I access http://rx8ownersclub.co.uk/forum/ I get to the site forum ok.

However, if I try http://www.rx8ownersclub.co.uk/forum/ I get a "shadow" copy of the site, which seems to be differrent from the "real" site!!

I've been having problems with the "shadow" of the site for a while now and put it down to the DNS cache in my firewall software. I've now disable the firewall DNS cache but still get this problem.

Could someone else try the above URL's and let me know what happens?

Ta!

The site and forum is now available. - Sorry for the inconvenience caused. - The forum should be accessed using www.rx8ownersclub.co.uk/forum - any shadowing is an end result of the ISP DNS setup and the BB software.

Again apologies for the down time. - Hopefully though we are now in a position to cope with the demand.

Craig
