mattmey Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 Hello, I was trying add an FTP account for a friend to my website about an hour ago, and it wasn't working... I was trying to figure out why the new user name couldn't log in, when all of a sudden, I wasn't able to even use cPanel anymore. I can't ftp with my own account now, my site is down, and I can't access cPanel. That was about an hour ago, and I thought I'd wait to see if it fixed itself... but it hasn't. So... was this my fault, and I need to do something to fix it? Or, is this a server problem and I just need to wait? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Rob Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 I can access your site. You have "World of Bore Craft" as a heading to your post. Have you run a tracert to see if it is failing anywhere specific? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattmey Posted January 26, 2006 Author Share Posted January 26, 2006 Hmm... well that's good news that you can access it. I don't really know anything about a tracert... if you can walk me through it I'll give it a try. All I know is I've used Firefox and IE, and both of them time out when loading. I can't log in with SmartFTP, either, and I can't view my site or my cPanel... :-\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Rob Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 tracert, in Windows click Start and then Run. In the box, type cmd. In the new window type "tracert yourtchdomain.com" with no quotes. Paste the results here and we can assist in finding the problem area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TCH-Rob Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 Looks like you are timing out just before the server. Open a ticket and include this tracert so the techs can look into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raould Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 Looks like you are timing out just before the server. Open a ticket and include this tracert so the techs can look into it. Looks similar to problem I am having with my site too ... a network issue I gather? I raised a ticket because I am not sure where to check status for that sort of problem?

stevevan Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 Well, if it's a network issue, you'd run a trace route as described above. If it's a server issue, you could check this page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Rob Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 Based on the above trace it looks like part of the datacenter network, we might have some control over it. The hop that Matt is stopping at is the one just before the server. Anything prior to the 209 IP and we don't have as much control over it. Also, if it is a network issue, the server status pages may not show anything wrong because the server monitor may be passing through on a good route. Bottom line, if you cannot get to your site and a trace shows * * * at some point, open a ticket so the techs can decypher the trace you send and let you know where the problem might lay.

mattmey Posted January 26, 2006 Author Share Posted January 26, 2006 Thanks for the help. You guys are always so fast! :-) I've submitted a ticket, so we'll see if that fixes it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Chris Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 your ip was blocked on the server. I see that its removed now Please note that our security software on server blocks the ip if access to any service (webmail, cpanel, ftp etc) is attempted with wrong password more than a few times.
