Thread: Cannot access various Postgres sites

Cannot access various Postgres sites

From

I'm only subscribed to -general and -hackers, so if this message should go to a different list, please feel free to forward it along, but I've been unable to get to a couple of the Postgres websites for quite awhile.  

Back on March 20 Bruce Momjian posted a link in -hackers to the 9.0 release notes (http://developer.postgresql.org/pgdocs/postgres/release-9-0.html).  It blew my mind that so many were able to discuss that page because developer.postgresql.org didn't respond then, and it doesn't respond now.  :(  I'd still like to read that page.

Today I wanted to peek inside the JDBC driver sources before I join their mailing list and ask a bunch of dumb questions, but jdbc.postgresql.org isn't responding either.

I've also seen intermittent connectivity issues with planet.postgresql.org, but it seems to be working today.

Is it just my network or is something up with these hosts?

I could read the release notes for 9.0 by then and still can now.  This is from two different countries (Brazil first and now US), so this should be an indicative that you might be having network issues.

Can you please try canging your DNS servers from whatever you have now to Google's?

Make 8.8.4.4 primary and 8.8.8.8 secondary and try again.

You can also try using OpenDNS servers.

It's not DNS.  I can resolve the hostnames just fine.  In fact, those two both resolve to the same IP:  200.46.204.71

They just don't respond.

$ telnet 200.46.204.71 80
Trying 200.46.204.71...

just hangs indefinitely.  :(

Yup, it was.  :(  I appreciate the confirmation that it was me, thanks!
