[SOLVED] Linuxquestions.org forum Problems

Hi

As of yesterday I have had trouble loading this forum, Am I the only 1 having this problem are there others, I have changed the dns servers in network manager to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4.
It is also takin for ever to load website, this seems to be the only 1 tho

Please see this current thread on the subject.

You're not the only one. There's a problem with a server on the NetDNA Content Delivery Network used by linuxquestions.org to serve certain static content. I believe it only affects users in Europe.

As a temporary workaround, you could try null routing the ip address 108.161.187.96, or map the DNS name lqo-thequestionsnetw.netdna-ssl.com to another IP address, one that doesn't belong to a web server. Since I'm not running a web server on my local PC, adding the following line to the hosts file did the trick:

127.0.0.1 lqo-thequestionsnetw.netdna-ssl.com

The site will still look like the screenshot you posted, but loading time will be close to normal.

Just remember to remove that line once the issue has been resolved.

Thks for reply, at least I know it,s not me

// closing as a dupe - the issue has been solved. We apologize for the inconvenience.
