Could not connect last night

[midlifecrisis 4,048]

Last night I lost the ability to connect to Pattaya Talk. The message said that there was no response from the DNS server. It is the first time I recall this happening. This happened for hours but obviously is back today for me.

 

I am just curious what happened.

Frostfire explained it in another thread.

 

Apparently, a disk died and the DNS server went down. The problem was resolved after I woke Frosty up and he had a chance to look at it.

Thanks. I suspected it was hardware related and glad that it is resolved.

 

As you say it was previously addressed, I have no problem if you lock this topic.

Since the release of Firefox-52.0.1, I haven't been able to connect and Firefox returns the message,

 

 

Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at www.pattayatalk.com.

The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer’s network connection.
If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

 

I've been on other boards looking for information, thinking, perhaps, a decision was made to shut down pattayatalk.com.

Just for chuckles, I fired up a old copy of Opera (pre-chromium) and was able to connect. I don't kow what Firefox is

doing wrong, but I'll look into it.

Just FYI.

Early this morning, my time, Mozilla posted the source code for Firefox-52.0.2, but have yet to publish the change log.

That has to be a bug fix, so it will interesting to see if fixes the problem. If I work up the energy, maybe I'll compile it

myself and give it a go.

Would be interested to know... I have been getting rather frustrated in the last few weeks with issues of connection, and it is often reported as an inability to connect to primary DNS server. Perhaps some were due to a Firefox bug... but my bet is on True, Thailand!

I use version 52.0.1 on the phone from OZ and have had no problems what so ever connecting anywhere.

Well, since all previous versions of Firefox have worked, including 52.0, and other browsers have worked, the problem has to be with Firefox-52.0.1. We will see......

Are you having problems connecting to other websites or is it just here?

Firefox-52.0.2 is installed and the problem is solved.
