can not get onto TheSamba,.....or is it just me

Post by retrovan »

Hi Guys,

Can not get onto the Samba, but have been told by others in USA that the site is up and running.

Any one of you have the same problem ???

Or is it just my Paraffin converter.

Can not get in, even if I go via vwispwest, and click on the TS logo, not sure whats going on.

Can get to any other site no problem.

Hi Herman

Since last week I get an error when trying to log in. Couldn't log in at home or at work, or on my phone. Emailed Everett and he said there is no problem on his side.
Mr Z said he had no problem logging in so I thouhgt the problem is on my side. I asked my IT guy and he also couldn't. I thought it was maybe area related (JHB) but spoke to Jacques (Vintage kombi) and he cannot log in either.

I emailed Everett again and he sent me a mail with steps I need to follow and give him the "results" I get so he can forward it to CloudFlare.

I will try it later today. If it works I will let you know.

Regards,
Jaco

Thanks Jaco,
Was under the impression that my cheap paraffin was to blame.

Yes spoke to Everett as well, and have done the rout trace as he has asked.

Sent it off to him just now, so lets see what gives.

Will post here.

Since last week Saturday morning i cannot log into The Samba at all. Tried many times at different times of each day.

Each time i get "error 522- connection timed out- Cloudflare working, host error".

Samba is the one and only site i have this problem with.
Staying Aircooled is so much nicer.

They have changed routes on their Hosting side, or their upstream provider has done some changes on their firewalls. Def not an issue here Herman.

Maybe there is some common ground affecting those of us who have Samba-connecting problems.

I have Mweb, and use windows XP. Tried Firefox and Exlorer.

Getting error 522, timeout, cloudflare working, host error.

Did the "traceroute" and this is result:

Tracing route to thesamba.com [190.93.240.42]
over a maximum of 30 hops:

1 <1 ms <1 ms <1 ms home.gateway [192.168.1.254]
2 10 ms 8 ms 10 ms 41-132-38-1.dsl.mweb.co.za [41.132.38.1]
