Aminet down?
« on: April 25, 2017, 03:50:57 PM »
aminet.net gives me an error about "Unable to connect to database"... is this scheduled downtime, or ... (dramatic music) unscheduled downtime?

Where's the latest list of mirrors?  The last one I tried - all of them were down, as well.  :(

Not sure if this helps but if you go in through the ftp you can find the folders etc

http://ftp://main.aminet.net/new/

The index was modified at 7.05 this morning. Please remember....

Please read http://wiki.aminet.net/Uploading_instructions before uploading

My guess they have just locked the site out while they update.

By the way other links give this ....

Sorry! This site is experiencing technical difficulties.

@all:

updated the index page to contain a small update and a list of servers you can still access. We're having problems with our hoster (or rather what they consider proper support), we'll be back online as soon as possible.

You want to take over? just drop me a mail at aminet@aminet.net and I'm out. Not sure why I still bother.
