AmigaKit down?

[tonyyeb]

Hi all

Anyone else finding AmigaKit's web site is down?

[motorollin]

Yes.

Yes, maybe they are upgrading it or something like that

[amigakit]

Sorry about this- we are experiencing high levels of traffic on the US server- the UK server is still running though: http://www.amigakit.co.uk

[amigakit]

Back up and running now :-)

Bananas for you Amigakit:

I still can't access any of the servers. I'm getting an "URI Too Large" error. Oh well. Guess I'll just have to wait.

Getting the same error for the UK site.

Can you pmail me the exact URL that is in your web browser bar when you get this error and also tell me what browser you are using.  Thanks.

uk.amigakit.com and amigakit.co.uk both working fine here on Safari and Firefox.

I've got it working now on the UK server. Just for the record, though. I've been getting that same error message often in the past too. But then it has been enough to refresh the browser to continue. Using FireFox3.

[amigakit]

Hmmm, mystery.  If someone gets the URI Too large error, please pmail me the full link from your browser so we can get to the bottom of this problem ASAP.

Maybe the session ID (which seems to be passed within the URL) happens to sometimes go above the limit on the number of characters the web server will accept as a valid URL.

I had the url is too long error when I was using FireFox the other day. I then used IE and the site entered normally. I therefore think this is a website issue when FireFox is used.

IE7 works fine but firefox 3.0.1 gets URL too long:
