Appears to be down currently, not sure how long it's been like this https://www.reddit.com/r/2007scape/s/N3HaTPPnNg
Hey, thanks for flagging this. Should be back up. I have a monitor running on this, but it's been noisy, and seems i have missed this being down for so long. I'm going to look into improving that monitor so it doesn't raise alarms every time the server lags a bit
I think what happened was that AWS was going through an upgrade, and had to shut down a few servers. This one was on that list.
I've seen people concerned about the services availability. Definitely, this service does go down fairly often unfortunately. I do want to apologize for that. It's being used by a lot more people than I initially thought, and I think it sometimes has a hard time keeping up with the traffic. It's not an incredibly powerful machine that hosts the server, since I'm currently optimizing for cost. There's definitely some stuff I can do on my side to make it a bit better, so I'll look into this.
I've changed our monitoring tool to one that has a little more customization options that will alert only on real incidents instead of every time there is a failed request that recovers a few minutes after
Service is periodically going down. Many times, the service recovers on its own, but below are the times where it hasn't:
As to WHY this is happening, I am not sure. Some contributing/non-contributing factors:
As I find out more, or if this happens again, I'll update the post with more information.
