UKtrainsim and Atomic Systems DOWN

It appears that Uktrainsim.com is down at the moment (at the time of writing as of 16:45), it is affecting all areas of Atomic Systems and nothing appears to be functioning.

Just letting you know.

Cheers
Alistair Cowell

Thanks Alistair.

Just tried logging in, it's still down.

Hi all,
I've just tried and it appear to be okay? Possibly a momentary blip?
Cheers
Andy

Just to let you know that UKTrainsim.com is now back online, there has been a glitch that disables everything within Atomic Systems and has been solved.

Cheers Guys.

Hi All,
I know it's an old thread, but it seems to have happened again - must have gone down at least half an hour ago.

Ged

EDIT : DON'T PANIC!! - The site returned at about 19:15

Hi all,
It seems as of 14:35pm the UKTS Server is down again........ They really are having some problems with it? (Must be all these Uploads)
Cheers
Andy

Hi Andy,
Yes, I was using it when it went down at about 13:40 - it had come back before 14:58! There's no mention of either failure on the site!!

Cheers,
Ged

Hi

The site appears down as of 17:00 this evening.  

May be the fact that Atomic Systems is going through series of glitches. It can have an impact on the train-sim project in some ways (and I do feel threatened to give up MSTS at times!).

I'm planning to send the files to a one of the user tonight, though I'm doing the 1972 Tube Stock now...

PS - I have started the thread over at UKTS.

Hi all,

Looks like the ukts main site is down as I tried to get on at 4pm uk time and the site refused to load.

I got on to the main site after several tries but not on to the forums.

Perhaps the forum couldn't cope with all the 'MSTS Hall of Fame' suggestions!   

Not working for me either.

I can't sign in to the forums either after getting the site to load.

Working fine now.

The site is now up and running, but I am unable to login to the forum. It isn't accepting my Password!!
Also there is already a thread all for when UKTS is down. Here is the link; https://tsforum.forumotion.net/t191-uktrainsim-and-atomic-systems-down
Cheers

Hi all,
I have just tried the UKTS forum again and it is now working okay as it should after many attempts at trying to login...........
Cheers
Andy

It still won't let me login on the forum. I'll have to email them.

Andy (35005CP) thanks for the tip on the threads I moved and merged mine to the current one I made the mess so I cleaned it up   

Hi All,
Seems to be down again! I get a "Waiting for... " message and nothing else - do others get the same, or is it just me??!

Ged

Hi Ged,
Nope you are not alone! I tried again this afternoon and I managed to login after a while, but I couldn't get any further!
Seems on going problems at UKTS..... They still have yet to resolve the download count issue.
Cheers
Andy

Hi, folks,

I too have a same problem. Looks like UKTrainSim isn't healthy at the minute.
I do get in to a panic when it comes to downtime.

I'm quite worried about UKTS at the minute, the site being quiet as well.

Alistair Cowell

Mine is back again now,

Seems it is up and running again for now lads! I am currently in the process of downloading 1 of the Class 20's... Hope this works... Will let you all know if it doesn't!
Cheers
Andy

Hi Folks

Nobody was alone when UKTrainSim was down last night, and we were all in the same boat. The website was offline approximately between 19:25 and 20:00, and nobody has commented about what the problem was.

Another problem that lingered on for a while is the Download Count issue. Though everything is OK in this matter, the only problem is not getting to know how many each download is counted for! The Download Count issue has been there since 14th May 2014, and have yet to be solved.

With UKTrainSim site being quiet recently, it looks like that the site is becoming quite neglected, and people don't seem to be interested in train-sim at the moment. This might be understandable, as this might be due to the fact that we all have our lives and jobs to do, and that does explain the explanation.

As far as I know, UKTrainSim is currently working properly, albeit with Download Count issue. UKTrainsim downtime is yesterday, and it has been dealt with.

Alistair Cowell

I'm not sure that we are in a position to make any statements about the state of UKTS, and I would prefer it if we avoided any such statements in the future. I hasten to add that comments that it isn't working are not a problem.

MSTS involvement has always been variable and as you quite rightly say there's more to life than just MSTS - but only just! SWMBO's bathroom refurbishment scheme has kept my MSTS time to a minimum just recently.

Quite understandable, Alec.

Cheers
Alistair Cowell

Don't mention decorating Alec, it just so happens that I will have to tackle the main bedroom shortly, it's new wallpaper and carpet time, after sixteen years, but one consolation, at my age, it shouldn't need doing again for another sixteen years, in which time if I'm still here, I'll be 86. Too risky to start climbing ladders me thinks!

The bathroom is now finished, although SWMBO keeps going in to stand and stare - very worrying as it might mean a change of mind!

Hi Folks,

UKTrainSim and Atomic Systems are currently down as of 01:10 on 18/10/2014.
With the Peterborough show taking place this weekend, it might be a weekend without UKTS.

Alistair Cowell

Mmmm . . . I get this when I attempt to visit UKTS?

I've just logged in and it loaded up normally, so they must have fixed it now.

All up and running, it's all sorted now!

Cheers
Alistair Cowell

Is it just me or is UKTS completely off-line at the moment?

Forum seems to be back up now.

Main page not loading though.

Just been on there, all seems to be working again now.

How are others finding UKTS today.

I am only getting on to the main page with difficulty and cannot access the forums.

Hi

I could not gain access to the forums about an hour ago, I was about to speak to him about regarding the Class 303 units.
Now we have to wait until the site is back up and running. I don't know when, Saturdays can be a quiet time for the train-sim community.
The Class 303 project can wait for now.

Cheers
Alistair Cowell

Hi All,
It seems that the Open Rails site is suffering similarly - "Too many connections" - not surprising as I believe they use the same servers!
Probably a rush to get version 1.0??

Cheers,
Ged

I believe that UKTS hosts Open Rails.

An Error has Occurred
File: D:\web\AtomIC\common\asparse.php
Line:21
Error:
Unable to select database.

This is the state of play as at 2040
Cheers
Andy
Update: As at 2100 the front page has reappeared, but can not accsess forums, suggest possible site maintenance taking place
Andy

I am getting:


General Error
SQL ERROR [ mysqli ]

Lock wait timeout exceeded; try restarting transaction [1205]

An sql error occurred while fetching this page. Please contact an administrator if this problem persists.

Please notify the board administrator or webmaster: UKTrainSimForums@uktrainsim.com

Down for me too.

No point trying to send an email to that address. It will bounce!

Seems to be down for me too as of 22:17pm.... Working slowly on a refresh of the page! (i.e partially loads)

Cannot even login!

Hi

There is a possibility that Atomic Systems might not be restored this evening. Outage will probably continue into tomorrow. It is advised not to visit UKTS or anything Atomic Systems tonight.
I'm sure Pete will fix the site as soon as possible, byut Saturday night does seems to see very little MSTS activity, so he might be unable to fix the problem tonight.
So please do be patient and try to do something else for the meantime.

With the outage of Open Rails site as well, it has not been a great night for the train-sim community. This might be the weekend with out the train-sim community.

Once again, please be patient, and hopefully UKTS will be restored. Train-sim community would not continue without the UKTS site.

Cheers

Mmmmmmmm . . . can't help feeling a comment ought to be made, but perhaps discretion might be prudent!

The "appropriate" comment might be that UKTS could not continue without the trainsimming community!

Just tried ukts but the site is still down,will give it a latter today
Mike

Hi Mike, UKTrainsim is back on line.

Bob

Thanks Bob

Which comes first, eh?



You've gotta laugh surely?

Hi,
I seem to be having problems logging into the UKTS Forum - it's taken a dislike to my long-standing password  
Has anyone else had the same problem?  I'm reluctant to change the password as it may cause more trouble!

I've sent an email to the Board Administrator.

Cheers,
Ged

EDIT : OOoops!! my email's been bounced back

That email address hasn't worked for years. I guess that's one way to suppress negative feedback!
