Trouble Accessing the Site?

[specvjeff]

Is anyone having trouble accessing the site after the server migration? I know of a couple people who are having issues. If you are having issues, can you please let us know who your internet service provider is, and what browser you are using. We'd like to figure out what is causing the issue for the random few who are having problems so we can fix it. Thanks!

[Jhuneke]

Yes.. I has been sketchy last 3 hours or so. I have verizon and explorer 9.. Also having trouble on my iPhone w verizon, as well as Tapatalk for Iphone5. Don't know if that helps, but thought I'd chime in :)

[BigAir]

Only issue is it continuously refreshes the forums page on my home comp. Running windows 8 and provider is dishnet. Not that big of a deal, I just hit "esc" and it stops. probably more to do with win8 than anything. Forgot, that is with IE and Chrome.

[SDguy]

SDR won't load for me at work at all. Says the page can't be displayed. All other forums work. IE10 on Win7 Pro SP1. No clue who our ISP is here... Otherwise zero issues with the site on any other device.

[AFUreef]

I haven't tried on the computer but having issues on iPhone from verizon.

Edit:
Tried computer and also having trouble accessing via cox and also on iPhone via wifi or verizon. ;)

[DaveMorris]

I told you it wasn't just me Jeff. I have issues finding the server at home using Cox and on my iPhone and iPad using wifi or Verizon.

Last Thursday night we migrated our site/database to a new server. I'm currently working on updating Google DNS records. You can try this for now.

When DNS records have been changed it takes about 24 hours for the changes to propagate and take effect. Only after that you will be able to see the result of the DNS changes you have made.

If after 24 hours the DNS change has not taken effect yet, try clearing your browser’s cache (http://kb.siteground.com/article/How_to_clear_cache_in_Firefox_InternetExplorer_Saf ari_Opera.html).

To resolve a domain name to a certain IP address without having to wait for the DNS change to propagate, you can modify your hosts file (http://kb.siteground.com/article/How_to_use_the_hosts_file.html).

I can't get it to load on the computer at work. Not sure who the ISP is but using explorer 8 I believe. No problems with my iPad or iPhone though.

[Laddair]

I cannot access the site from work either. Do not know what the service provider is. FYI

[slicktoppomp]

Had issues with Iphone using Tapatalk with Sprint. Also couldn't access the site from my computer earlier. Have Cox internet and using Google Chrome browser.

If I leave a page open for more than 45 seconds then click on a link it will give me an error page asking me to reload... frustrating.

Cox, Google Chrome and Verizon Iphone

[Octoman4]

Google chromeand internet explorer on work computer can't find the site at all, if I google search it , I can find it. If I Click the link it says" opps google chrome could not find www.sdreefs.com try reloading".Tried that, and it did nothing. Checked on internet explorer still says can't find site. Its not blocked either because it worked before the server switch. I've also cleared all cache, coockie, and history. Did not help

[Sun&Ocean]

+1 cant access at work. Cleared cache, cookies, history, but in vain

Commercial T line, IE/Chrome/Firefox

[paulyboy18]

I tried all these suggestion, still unable to access at work! This means work will be extra boring...! :cry:
Please get this working soon...

[slicktoppomp]

Been having tons of issues accessing the site. This is my first time I have been able to access the site in 2 days.

[1904mike]

I have my bookmark set for "new posts" and it's been working fine, but if I click the home button it is just a blank screen.
yesterday it was some "hacked by..." screen with some middle eastern looking pictures.
I have cox on my laptop using firefox and I tried IE just to see if it was my firefox.
I have verizon on my cell phone it's a droid.
both showed the hacked page and now both show a blank white screen when trying to get to the "home" for the forums.
everything else works fine for me

[Sun&Ocean]

I got the hacked message too & there was some crazy music with the site.
I sent a message to chad, but he seems still caught up.

What is going on guys?

[seareef]

I registered with Google DNS today so it should take a day or two to propagate. Please try the following - clearing your browser’s cache (http://kb.siteground.com/article/How_to_clear_cache_in_Firefox_InternetExplorer_Saf ari_Opera.html).

Sorry I haven't responded to your PM Krish. I've been extremely busy with work and the site lately. I can't seem to get a break. I'm working on the DNS issue.

Thanks for your patients.
Chad

[Sun&Ocean]

I understand, The hacking message really through me off, hence the concern.

[DaveMorris]

I am still having all kinds of problems with it Chad. I appreciate the time you are putting in to sort it out.

[SDguy]

Yeah at this point it's just a mobile app since my phone is the only way to access this site :). Thanks for working on it Chad.... hope it gets worked out soon!

[wyntersun]

No issues here so far.

iPhone using tapatalk and Google chrome.

[1904mike]

Thanks Chad for the hard work. it doesn't go unnoticed.

[seareef]

I made some recent changes to my DNS servers plus added SDR to Google DNS. This should help.

[SDguy]

Still a no go for me :(

[h20poloman]

I haven't had any issues knock on wood, not sure if internet carriers can make a difference?

[seareef]

We are transferring all DNS to Godaddy's premiumn DNS service. It can take up to 48 hours. Until then the site should work fine because the same record exist in the Godaddy account as on SDR's server. When the transfer is finished, all the Google Public DNS issues will also be solved ( sdreefs.com (http://sdreefs.com) domain will work from Google DNS's servers 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 servers). The transfer should happen Wednesday night @Midnight.

[DaveMorris]

I'm hitting it trouble-free from Singapore!

[Octoman4]

working on my work computer now!

[Ujarak]

9 times out of 10 I can't get on sdreefs. Just started about 4 days ago. Anyone else have that problem?

[BajaReefs]

google sdreefs again and click on it, add to favorites and override the old one. It worked for me.

[unbereefable]

I'm having all kinds of problems. Is sdreefs no longer I friendly? CPU, pads, phones? Can barely get the site to load anymore. Tried safari, google, and yahoo. 75% of the time I get, "can not load page because server can not be found."

[Carq91]

Same here just started having problems with it.

[bbandu]

Not sure what's going on, I have been on the site today from several different sites using ie, chrome, and safari with no problems

[Jhuneke]

Having same 'server cannot be found' errors in and off with iPhone .. Been going on a few days .

[cutterx23]

Yep been dealing with the same problem for awhile now. Supremely annoying. Works MAYBE 50% of the time. One second it works the next it doesn't, and won't for about 15 minutes usually. What's the deal with this?

[seareef]

I'm hoping that we finally got our DNS resolved. As we update DNS members may experience some outages. It maybe a day or two as DNS propagates.

If you are unable to access the site, try this:

Hoping this doesn't jinx it, but I have not had a single problem with the site in a few days now. That is on my iphone, ipad and work pc. Work PC was always the worst and it has been fine since Thursday. Thanks Chad for all the hard work.

[socal619]
