psiturk ad server times out sometimes #350

Open Anne-Linde opened 5 years ago

Anne-Linde commented 5 years ago

In testing my experiment in the sandboxmode and accepting the hit as a worker, the ad does not work. A grey screen is shown, and after a while the following error message is shown: Experimenter error: Experiment server unreachable

How can I fix this?

Psiturk ad server is broken at the moment, use heroku and host your own ad instead. See docs page, also google group threads on the same issue.
