sr is down

I was having some trouble with the Forum as well .  Everything started slowing down a few hours ago.
Hope its not one of those DOS attacks like last time.  SR was down for over a week.
Keeping my fingers crossed it goes back up soon.

You would think if it was taken down by DPR forf updates we would know about it.
Also it would go to message like down for few minutes not directly to problem loading page.

Looks like it's down for good and not coming back.

I figure the main SR site is just down for some updates.  It will probably be back shortly.  Of course "shortly" is subjective.

DPR probably didn't post a message about it because every time he does, there end up being 800 replies to it...

Just my 2¢

Usually you can still access the site, but you can't log in. Now the server is just gone. Good thing I cashed out all my BTC yesterday or I'd be fucked right now.

we have close to $7000 up there right now, I really hope it isn't down for good
Title: Re: Trouble logging in
Post by: abercrombiekidjf on August 29, 2013, 02:19 pm
its not down for good, if it continues for a period of time its probably one of the DOS attacks it was the same problem loading page for almost a week when that happened, im sure shortly DPR will put a message out or a MOD will step in and post a thread for us to go to, just be patient

Why do you keep so much in your wallet? I always keep the bulk of my coins in a normal wallet in case something like this happens or even when BTC starts dropping like crazy and I need to sell ASAP.

Henny penny.......the sky is falling. :o.....................Ya it's down........but these things happen....and SR will be back up and running soon.....always has before. :)

I have orders to process as well...as every other vendor.

DPR will fix it

Because we were about to make a $10k order and had about 2800 in escrow so we were waiting for it to clear to make the order

I cant get to SR as well and forum is slow. And yellow spots, that show what status person has here in forum, change for a moment Roll eyes. Maybe it was a momentary error.

I cant get in still, only just got forums back.

This has ruined my weekend and possibly my life. Next time I see DRP im gonna punch him

Looks like this a pretty universal problem. I'm experiencing the same dramas. Hopefully should be back online when I wake up in the morning. If not then it looks like we're going through the DDOS attacks again. Usually the SR admin staff while put a notice up when they're updating the site and I don't seen any notification at all I just get the same timeout error one would get when they attempt to visit an offline URL.

Fingers crossed guys.

If you're lucky enough to ever see him you should thank him for all he's done for everyone.

The lot of you need to show a little faith.. It'll be back up today I'd wager.

lets all hope its not an attack, ill just try again later fingers crossed
Title: Re: Trouble logging in
Post by: poppermachine on August 29, 2013, 02:53 pm
It turns out that it has been up the whole time, you just misspelled the URL and did not realize...
Title: Re: Trouble logging in
Post by: v86 on August 29, 2013, 02:54 pm
Definitely feels like a DOS attack to me as a very few people are getting in while most arent.
Same shit as last time.
Forum is almost impossible to get it to as well.  Took me over 20 tries

WOW, you guys most all be newbies? If you joined the site a year ago you would know that getting the time out screen was more common then getting the login screen. THE SERVERS ARE OBVIOUSLY NOT BUSTED AS THEN IT WOULD SAY THEY URL DOES NOT EXISIST AS OPPOSED TO WHAT IT IS SAYING KNOW, TO TRY AGAIN LATER!  There could be an increase of traffic, the need feedback system causing glitches ETC. AND for all those flippin out saying why hasn't DPR posted? HE IS HUMAN, HAVE YOU HEARD OF SLEEP? It might be friggin 4 in the morning where ever he's at and he doesn't even know theres issues yet!

To all the customers freaking out, have you noticed it is the VENDORS telling you to stay calm and everything is going to be fine? All of you are freaking out because you can't place orders, well, I have enough money in escrow right now that if I lost it I'd be totally fucked and I am NOT tripping about this. IT HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES, IT WILL BE FIXED BUT IT WILL ALWAYS SOMETIMES HAPPEN, EVEN REGULAR CLEARNET WEBSITES GET THE SAME ERRORS, IMAGINE HOW HARD RUNNING THIS SITE IS?

This may be a botnet at work. The amount of Tor clients has doubled since August 19. It seems to affect other hidden services as well, not just Silk Road.

Seems like the Botnet is doing somthing now which affects the Tor Network. Most hidden services in my bookmarks were unreachable for the past hour.
