[PLUG] Identifying Why One Web Site Will Not Load
I have no problems loading any Web site I want except for one: grass.osgeo.org. It works for others (probably everyone in the world but me) and just will not load here using Firefox, Opera, or Chromium. Ping works; returns packets quickly. Please suggest where I might look for the source of this problem, or test I can run to identify what is blocking me.

You pinged, but did you check with other sources that the IP address you got for this host (grass.osgeo.org) is the same as what others get? If not, you can't know for sure just who or what you are pinging. I get 140.211.15.75. Once you verify that your DNS lookup was successful (returning the correct record, not just any record), you can start looking at protocol problems. Are you attempting to view this site via HTTPS? This site does not appear to support that. Next steps will depend heavily on what result you get when you try to view the site. -wes ___ PLUG mailing list PLUG@lists.pdxlinux.org http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug

Wes, The status line reads, "connecting," and the in-use spinner on the address bar goes counter-clockwise. For other sites, that lasts a second or two, then the address bar spinner goes clockwise and the page loads. > When things get weird, I generally try to replicate the functionality of > whatever isn't working in single steps to see at which step it's failing.

This site does not appear > to support that. Nope, only http. Here's more to consider: I went looking for mirror sites; they are located all over the world in two tiers, 1 and 2. The USA Tier 1 mirror also would not connect so it would not load. The European Tier 1 and Tier 2 servers in France, Germany, Italy, and Poland (two of 'em) all instantly popped up 404: Page not found errors. The only mirror I can access is http://grass.mirror.eruditium.org/index.php The only recent change here is the minor version upgrade in Firefox, but Opera and Chromium also will not connect to grass.osgeo.org.

Joe, Yes, yes, and yes. Ping reports 140.211.15.75 and neither lynx nor links connects to that site. However, I think that I see the problem, but have no idea how it arose or what to do about it: When I enter the IP address in firefox's address bar the page that loads is for the Community Program Review page for the FOSS4G OSGEO Conference that was held here in Portland last week, not to the main GRASS web site. What do you see if you use the IP address in your browser? Thanks, Rich ___ PLUG mailing list PLUG@lists.pdxlinux.org http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
