ayok Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Hi, I have a strange experience. I'm working on a site, and one day I cannot access the site (www) and the ftp. The strange thing is, I can open it in other place and a friend can open it in other city. In conclusion, only the internet connection at my place cannot access de site! What's happened? How can I fix it? What should I do??? ayok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seventheyejosh Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Ya works great for me. Is your browser cached? Is your router/browser/software/virus blocking it for some reason? Has it been tagged as unacceptable and you are behind a bigger filter? Like no chinese access to chinese activist stuff? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayok Posted February 22, 2010 Author Share Posted February 22, 2010 I'm in holland, so I don't know if there is such an internet filter.. I think it's not the browser, cos I've tested with all my browser. I was working on it and getting a javascript error. After that I cannot access the site. I'll check the anti virus.

ayok Posted February 22, 2010 Author Share Posted February 22, 2010 Can't fix it. I still get this time-out error. Anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seventheyejosh Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Do you have SSH enabled? And if so can you access your server? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayok Posted February 22, 2010 Author Share Posted February 22, 2010 I can't connect to the site, cpanel, and even the ftp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayok Posted February 22, 2010 Author Share Posted February 22, 2010 Sorry for my stupid question... but where can i find SSH? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seventheyejosh Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Well if it is enabled, you can use putty or terminal to connect and see if you can. Since you have to ask tho, it probably isn't enabled. Can you ping it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 I used to have a similar issue with adobe.com. Ended up finding out that my local ip (192.168.*) address was in close proximity. What is your ip address? I moved my network to 10.1.1.* and it started working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stooney Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 I ran into this problem back when I was first learning AJAX and had some poorly written code. In short, the script was querying the server too much and my host would temp ban the users IP. So if you're on shared hosting, make sure you're not making too many connections too fast.

JonnoTheDev Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 This will be a DNS issue. Go to a command prompt and ping the domain. If it is not resolving to an ip address I suggest you use alternate DNS servers. You could also try rebooting your router and you will be issued with dynamic DNS. Make sure that the DNS ip you are using on your pc is that of the router. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayok Posted February 23, 2010 Author Share Posted February 23, 2010 Thanks all. It's solved. I don't know how, maybe because the owner has reported to the hosting company. But I still don't understand how it happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonnoTheDev Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 Thanks all. It's solved. I don't know how, maybe because the owner has reported to the hosting company. But I still don't understand how it happened. It has nothing to do with the hosting company. It was local to you as your friends could access the site. As I stated it was a DNS issue. Your ISP provides you with DNS servers. If them DNS servers cannot resolve the domain name to an IP address you are unable to view the website, FTP using the domain name, etc. All that has happened is that the DNS records for your domain have propegated to your ISPs DNS servers, now you can access the domain. If DNS records are changed it can take a while for them to be updated around the Internet. This is why your friends who use different ISPs might be able to view the website but you cannot. DNS is a fundamental part of how the Internet works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
