http://sinatra-book.gittr.com link broken

[rberger]

The link to the rendered book doesn't have a DNS entry. I get:

The server at sinatra-book.gittr.com can't be found, because the DNS lookup failed. DNS is 
the network service that translates a website's name to its Internet address. This error is 
most often caused by having no connection to the Internet or a misconfigured network. It can
 also be caused by an unresponsive DNS server or a firewall preventing Google Chrome
from accessing the network.

Error code: ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED

This might be related to the recent deprecation on Heroku, if the site was hosted there.

Nah, it's just me screwing up some server rejiggering. I'll get it back up in a few days.

@cschneid poke, seems like the URL is still down?

[zzak]

@locks Do you want to try to get the latest book running on heroku?

I've got this app: http://sinatra-org-book.herokuapp.com/

Let me know which heroku email to add as collab if you (or anyone) would like to try!

[jeremyricketts]

The link on http://www.sinatrarb.com/faq.html#deploy still points to http://sinatra-book.gittr.com

[cschneid]

Thank you for fixing the link - much appreciated. My personal server situation is all screwed up.

[octosteve]

I bought http://www.sinatra-book.com/ and am pointing it to http://sinatra-org-book.herokuapp.com/ to make updating the books and docs easier. @zzak If you want to add that as a domain on heroku, go ahead.

[fwolfst]

The issue(s) still persist. @StevenNunez: also sinatra-book.com is not pointing in the right direction anymore. I'd favour not to link to a build in either sinatra FAQ nor in this projects description than having a broken link.

[zzak]

It's been a while since I've looked into this project, but I think it'd be nice if we could generate a static version of the book, we should be able to host it at http://sinatrarb.com/sinatra-book/ as per github pages static page hosting.

I just bought sinatra-books.com again (as it was up for grabs and curiously not taken by a domain troll) and pointed it at the herokuapp site as Steven had already done. Unfortunately there are still a number of links to broken sites and some of Google's hits don't help, either. Perhaps at least the link at https://github.com/sinatra/sinatra-book could be corrected to something that works?

[sixtyfive]

And the one at http://recipes.sinatrarb.com/p/testing ("… along with the book and readme.") It links to the old, broken URL, too.

@sixtyfive Updated the link in the github repo homepage to point to the heroku app page

Looked around for a bit and couldn't find anymore broken links. Can be closed now?

[zzak]

Yeah, let's close this for now. I'd be happy if someone wanted to hook up static generation somewhere and point a sub-domain there (e.g. book.sinatrarb.com) as I think I still have access to that
