Maybe someone else can let me know if it looks like the site is up? Last time Contabo had a major downtime, my ISP somehow just completely lost the ability to connect to the site. I don't know if it was a DNS thing or something, but it took 4-5 days to get access back. Not a big deal to me, so long as the rest of the world can see the site.
Agree with everything you said about Contabo. Good service, good price...but I HAVE to be able to rely on them...
@tilvids I really hope it's just that one DC. Contabo is the best deal I can find and I do check at least once a year to see if e.g. DO or Heisner are offering anything close. When people ask in fedi I always mention pricing and uptime. I really hate installing a new server. I like to leave them fairly alone for years after I get them locked down. I guess i could traceroute - they do have DCs all over the world these days. Nope. Seems well connected. IDK.
Weird. Wonder if there are some geographic issues still or something. Glad it's working for you, and their page does say the issue is resolved as of an hour ago...
They've been down a few times before. I would say they've averaged 24 hours of downtime in the last year that we've used them. This is by far the longest they've been down though. 24 straight hours of downtime is pretty bad, IMO.
@tilvids It's up again now https://tilvids.com/ It's unusual for contabo to be down. I am in both munich and nuremberg for over a decade now with them. Is Dusseldorf one of their very new ones? They seem to be building out very quickly these days; maybe too quickly. I hope this is not a sign of the future with them :-(
Still waiting for our ISP (Contabo) to resolve their issue. They are having a problem at their datacenter in Dusseldorf that has been ongoing for almost 24 hours. You can keep track of their interruption here: https://contabo-status.com/
