Hi,

 

:(

 

Why are there down times everyday please (before yesterday, yesterday, and tody (10h + 16h) ?

 

Why first both my website and sub-domain are down and then only my sub-domain (but not my site!) ? (while heliohost down)

 

Thanks

The main reason is because our nameservers keep failing. NS2 hasn't worked in over 6 months, and NS1 goes down a lot (it was down earlier today for ~1 hour). Much of the downtime is when both NS's become unavailable. If you're on Johnny, then it's even worse since he frequently goes down from high load as well.

 

I find it frustrating too. :( The good news is that there's been some talk about much-needed server upgrades in recent weeks. It'll probably be a little while before we get anything, but we're definitely considering it.

 

You might want to consider setting up cloudflare in the meantime...that way a cached version of your site will be available even if we're down.

Cloudflare has the ability to cache your site. You won't be able to use any applications (e.g. post to a forum, edit blog, etc.), but content like normal web pages and existing blog posts will still be available. When we are down, the public will see a slightly-outdated version of your site instead of an error message.

 

You might want to create a new topic asking how to set up CloudFlare correctly. I don't use it myself, so I can't explain the procedure, but I know there's at least one other moderator here who knows a bit more about it than I do.

Ho, I see for name servers...

But why they ask me to change that and what this will do if I change ? i will not loose my content on the ns servers ?

 

 

NS1.HELIOHOST.ORG

> carl.ns.cloudflare.com

 

 

NS2.HELIOHOST.ORG

> elaine.ns.cloudflare.com

 

I have added > carl.ns.cloudflare.com and > elaine.ns.cloudflare.com

I have to delete NS1.HELIOHOST.ORG and NS2.HELIOHOST.ORG ?

Thanks, very strange, it works / doesn't work O.o

I have 2 SRV : Mecraft.Fr and location.mecraft.fr

I can't connect to both, very long to load then "can't connect to server" BUT 1 or 2 time it was Ok for mecraft.fr :o so I tried and I could connect ! But when I disconnected and refresh, there was no signal...

• If I create SRV in OVH panel is it enough ?

• Can I add ns1 and ns2 in ovh dns ? Like that I will have the 2 of heliohost and the 2 of cloudflare ! Is it possible ? What will happen ?
