Site is off? #1664

Closed GCrispino closed 4 years ago

GCrispino commented 4 years ago

Hi! Not sure if this is the right place, but I've had some problems when trying to open the website. I've been getting ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED error. Is the site suffering from infrastructure changes/problems?

We're using GitBook (legacy) to server tutorial. I can see CNAME for tutorial.djangogirls.org

$ dig tutorial.djangogirls.org  CNAME

but www.gitbooks.io DNS record is empty:

There's also an issue that Legacy GitBook is deprecated. They claimed that only updating content will be disabled, but maybe the deprecation went further. See #1652 for reference.

There's also an issue that Legacy GitBook is deprecated.

Maybe that's the problem then? The legacy GitBook website seems to be off, too.

It looks that they have infrastructure problem: https://twitter.com/GitBookStatus/status/1268530219901693956

I would prefer not to rush to move the tutorial to a different provider, but I believe, as Legacy is deprecated the discussion in #1652 will speed up here.

It looks, that it works at the moment. Closing that one and will conduct moving from GitBook infrastructure in #1652.
