My tale of WOE from today...http://i.imgur.com/5WccsZi.jpghttp://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=73821074&f=28Ok...I knew D2JSP went down, about 11:30 AM eastern time. I went to www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com ....and it said JSP was down. Ok, I thought shyt happens...no problem.
So I was shoveling snow and helping the neighbors with a few things, then came back and took an old man nap. All still OK.
Woke up from nap and went to JSP, surprise...no JSP. Went back to www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com ...and checked and it said JSP was UP!! I was like hmmm. So I called a guy in Tennessee and asked if he could get on JSP, and he did on his smart phone. But it was a Verizon smart phone. So I called another friend in Arkansas, and asked him to check, since he was NOT on any kind of Verizon internet.
He said: No, the site works for me no problem.
Ofc, I couldn't see the pic and the link above, because I couldn't get on JSP. Anyways...called Verizon tech support and asked what was going on...I could get on every site on the planet except JSP.
So I figured maybe it was a Firefox issue, so I installed Chrome....still couldn't get on JSP. So I called Verizon tech support and explained the problem...nothing they did helped, until they got super serious. I could here like 5-10 techs all trying to figure out the problem. So, they had me download a remote access program and then all the techs started doing all this weird Network troubleshooting.
After about 30 mins with some secret Verizon tools they managed to get JSP up, but only to the very front page. They were still troubleshooting and discussing what could be the problem, when I noticed the note from Njaguar in the pic above.
I said, I found the problem. Since we were both seeing my screen I showed them the note from Njaguar.
Apparently, the changes made when moving the JSP data center hadn't propagated to the Verizon DNS servers....yet.
After that it was easy, just changed to the Google DNS server and JSP came right up, no problems.
I could here them actually cheering in the background. :D
