Was anyone else having issues with SC yesterday????

Was anyone else having problems running SC yesterday/this morning?

It was awfully slow, and would take forever to get past the login screen, and then many times it would just time out.

Almost like, it couldn’t reach a license validation server or something.

Just went into my SC again, it is working fine, but I lost a lot of time because it was not running properly.

Was not anything with my server, as I have other PHP stuff on there that worked fine, and I rebooted numerous times to make sure. No errors in the error log.

I did have the same problem for awhile, so I just quit for the day. Everything seemed fine late last night. I haven’t done anything today - too pretty here in North Texas this morning so I am going to go out on my porch and have coffee and watch the birds.

Have a good day.

Thanks Ted. Ok, well I wasted HOURS trying to troubleshoot my server configuration, uninstalling stuff, reinstalling things, etc. I’m, at a minimum, very irate because I have a project to finish and I wasted a lot of time on something that wasn’t my issue.

Enjoy your day!! :slight_smile:

Hi Chris,
I haven’t been on much this weekend, as I have been working on Turbo Tax on my 2011 return :frowning: But I did report a long outage for SC last week. For me it was 4:44pm EST April 10th - sometime on April 11th. I know this because I sent them two emails. Bruna replied that it was up, but I sent them a reply that it was still down for me.

During that “outage”, I could not resolve the homepage or forum for the SC website, and when I tried loading my own SC it was super slow starting up. What I concluded in my mind was that they or someone upstream of them changed something to do with the scriptcase dot net domain name??? This must have been propagating out on DNS servers, till it didn’t work for me. It must have looked “up” to them during that time.

I don’t blame them, because I have had things like that happen over the years at work, where we are merrily going along doing our thing, while outside people in certain networks can’t see our site, etc.

It does seem logical that something has happened, since you noticed a glitch days later. Or it could be totally unrelated.

It was out for me for so long, I thought maybe they had shutdown… I even started looking at other systems I had evaluated in past, but at this point I feel comfortable with SC and want to finish this phase of my app in it. If I switch around it will be bad for me momentum-wise.

BTW I just did a lookup on the domain name scriptcase dot net and it is in Germany. I hope the SC guys read this post so they know that they were having issues and can fix it. It is a solid product with many positives, but connection problems with the site and system in the USA are not going to be good for their long term success.
peace,
Jamie

PS Ted, did you guys miss that big storm system? The news stations in FL made it sound like the whole central US was going to be blown away.

Hi Chris,

I stayed up until 3 am waiting for it to hit. We were ready to go get in the storm cellar next door but by the time it got here it had lost it’s strength and was nothing more than a thunderstorm - not even a good one. We really dodged a bullet though. Some friends up by Oklahoma City (about 140 miles north) got pounded by tornadoes. Luckily they didn’t make it down this far.

Later,

Ted
