Download Downtime

edited April 2007 in News & Announcements
Downloads are currently offline for an unknown reason for an unknown period of time, as it seems the server has disappeared.

I'll update this post whenever I get more info.

  • o snap.

    I'll check on this.
  • My page is down too!!!! (I have PM to you talking about this problem) :)
  • Servers just don't disappear on their own? :shock:
  • Obviously, the one's over here do :P
  • thers 2 W's..... Try adding another one and maybe it will work!!! DUH! =(
  • I cannot for the life of me figure that out...

    -Q
  • I think he's implying that "downloads.ww.zimmy.ca" should have three W's, despite the fact "ww" refers to WinWorld.
  • The server is down, it's out of my control now. I've left numerous emails to my provider and a voicemail and I haven't gotten action yet. I'd like to switch providers, but I won't because of the deal I'm getting (80gb hd, Semp2600+, 512mb RAM, Unlimited BW) for $75. IT WILL GET FIXED, trust me, WinWorld isint the only thing affected by this, the Swift site, the Swift mailserver, several friend's sites/emails, and my svn are also down. So are the zimmy.ca/swift.ws nameservers (I had a second nameserver, but Jonneh the emo fag cut it off for no reason).
    stewie.zimmy.ca:~ chris$ ssh cfue@osiris.zimmy.ca
    ssh: connect to host osiris.zimmy.ca port 22: Connection timed out

    That's "quality" VPS hosting services right there :lol:
  • Well, I have talked to the guys at the datacenter directly, and the server should be up in an hour or 2.

    ok, hope those idiots give your server back!

    It's not even their fault, it's due to the server being hung on an rc script.

    Dunno, the Torrent Turret blasted through my DSL Modem, and stuff went chaotic... :lol:
  • Oh Damn...*cancels DL of BitTurret: Extra Destructive Edition"

    It's not going to take a month, and IF it does, i'm getting a refund for that month.

    But yeah, most files can be found easily, torrents, other sites, ftp, etc...
  • when will the downloads be back please tell me today. I need windows 98 original badly
  • 1) It'll be back when it's back.
    2) Just be patient, or find a torrent if you can't wait. You're getting the shit for free, remember.

  • I don't think you needed to be that harsh.

    That said, as said above, if/when ANY of us know what's going on or even a possible return date, you can be sure it'll be all over the place in seconds.

    THAT said, I'm sorry to say that I don't think you can get 98 (Or much else) from us that quickly.

    -Q
  • I'm sorry, I'm just in an...uptight...mood lately...
    I didn't mean to sound harsh in any of my posts :-(

  • It's OK; the problem is when you don't notice ;)

    Hope whatever the cause is is resolved soon.
