Podshow Meltdown

[X Pat Radio]

So what's the deal with Podshow? Part of it works, part doesn't, then it all doesn't. Is this just server overload after the misfire this morning?

Podshow from my end (listener) seems to be working.

What problems are you having?

Let me count the ways. First the podcast feeds aren't working, second I can't upload my show. This afternoon the Podsafe Music Network was down, that maybe back up by now.

Not as bad as it was this morning, where I got the "parked" page from Godaddy.com

[WyethDigital]

Ouch! I hope it gets fixed soon! I've heard alternating rumors that PodShow forgot the domain renewal or that GoDaddy messed something up. In any case, something bad happened and its screwing with a lot of people!

Maybe you can get Podshow to give you some free hosting for the trouble ;)

Yeah, now its all down again but the feeds. The website is now back on the Parked Page

Hello all,

As some of you may already be aware, from 3:27am PT to 5:05am PST on Monday October 9th, all PodShow domains were set to Go Daddy parked servers and as a result, all PodShow domains were unavailable for a 90-minute period in the early hours of Monday morning. Due to what appears to be a relatively small technical issue, this has resulted in a more significant issue for some Show Producers and their audience in that it can take up 72 hours for the corrections to propagate worldwide.

As a result, there are still cases of individuals reaching a parked site even though the PodShow sites are essentially accessible, and have been since 5:05am PST Monday morning.

On behalf of PodShow and Go Daddy, I personally apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused you and your audience and will keep you alerted to any and all developments as they occur.

It should be pointed out that none of your media or content will be affected long-term by this short downtime period.

Please let us know if you have any immediate questions.

May I suggest...Auto Renew :)

An update from HQ. Thanks to all for your patience. This clearly goes beyond the domain name registration. Turns out it wasn't 'just an auto-renew' option, but a much deeper technical issue that is now being resolved between 3 providors of our infrastructure: GoDaddy, RackSpace and Limelight Networks.

We've been at it around the clock now and aren't stopping until we have this ****ing bug stomped into oblivion.

We've been at it around the clock now and aren't stopping until we have this f*ck bug stomped into oblivion.

All seem to be right with the world as of this weekend but upon seeing the 'parked' page, I was sure our podcast had been "let go" due to inactivity.

:wink:
