GlockSpeed31 Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Anyone having problems getting on to the USPSA website? I try and get a 403 error, saying I'm forbidden to access from this server. It worked fine yesterday from the same computer. Did I miss a notice or what?

j2fast Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Strange, I went through most of the areas of the site and everything worked for me??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Boudrie Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 I've received a couple of reports of this, but haven't figured out the cause yet. If you are getting this "forbidden" message, please open a command window and run "ping www.uspsa.org" and let me know what numeric IP address it tells you it is pinging. Thanks, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ks-shooter Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 I could not get anything last night and now I get the main page but cannot login to members area or get to nationals or store as it comes up with a "Forbidden" message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

driver8M3 Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 (edited) i was having problems last night at work using standard address www.uspsa.org from my favorites list. when i changed it to www.uspsa.com it got me in, sometimes, but it seemed like i couldn't get into the members area...and some pages would not load at all. i'm at home now, it appears to be working fine again.

Rob Boudrie Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 I've added the following notice to the home page on the server we recently moved from: USPSA has recently move hosting to a faster web server located at IP 209.62.63.82. The copy of the web site you are visiting resides on the old server at IP 67.15.14.83. It takes a while for updates to the DNS (Domain Name System) to propagate across the internet. Once your ISP's DNS server properly resolves USPSA.ORG, you will start reaching the site on the new server (and will no longer see this message).

GlockSpeed31 Posted September 4, 2007 Author Share Posted September 4, 2007 It still works for me. Did you try clearing out your Temp Internet Files or maybe clear the cookies & history out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ks-shooter Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 I got into everything this morning. Now I cannot get into anything! Cleared temp internet files along with the USPSA cookie...???

ks-shooter Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Great Success ! Apache is working on your cPanel® and WHM™ Server If you can see this page, then the people who manage this server have installed cPanel and WebHost Manager (WHM) which use the Apache Web server software and the Apache Interface to OpenSSL (mod_ssl) successfully. They now have to add content to this directory and replace this placeholder page, or else point the server at their real content. ATTENTION! If you are seeing this page instead of the site you expected, please contact the administrator of the site involved. (Try sending an email to <webmaster@domain>.) Although this site is running cPanel, WebHost Manager, and Apache software it almost certainly has no other connection to cPanel Inc. or the Apache Group. Please do not send mail about this site or its contents to cPanel Inc. or the Apache Group. C:\DOCUME~1\THOMAS~1>ping www.uspsa.com Ping request could not find host www.uspsa.com. Please check the name and try again. C:\DOCUME~1\THOMAS~1>ping www.uspsa.org Ping request could not find host www.uspsa.org. Please check the name and try again. Is it just me??

Rob Boudrie Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 This is a byproduct of updating the DNS, and all the various cacheing policies of ISPs. Rather than "ping" try "nslookup uspsa.org" and "nslookup www.uspsa.org". If you know how to hard code a DNS address, you can set www.uspsa.org to 209.62.63.82. If you don't, I don't recommend it unless you know someone to provide support if you have a problem with it. And, if you hard code the DNS, remember to unhardcode it or you'll have trouble in a few years when we move to yet another server. Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ks-shooter Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Rob, I truly do appreciate all the effort you have put into this. This is what nslookup gave me. C:\DOCUME~1\THOMAS~1>nslookup uspsa.org Server: dns2.huntel.net Address: 209.74.232.2 *** dns2.huntel.net can't find uspsa.org: Server failed C:\DOCUME~1\THOMAS~1>nslookup uspsa.com Server: dns2.huntel.net Address: 209.74.232.2 *** dns2.huntel.net can't find uspsa.com: Server failed It appears to be a DNS problem on my end. I will contact my ISP tomorrow (after I try USPSA again) to find out if they are having a DNS problem and if not, how to hardcode an address. Thanks! I was just hoping to get an update on the nationals squading but it will certainly wait until tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gino_aki Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 (edited) Changed my router settings to use the DNS servers at OpenDNS.com and !Voila! I am again a member of the USPSA community. Hoo boy and dem servers are fast, too, even out here on Maui. Edited September 5, 2007 by gino_aki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
