ADIDAP is Down, But Antoine is OK

Antoine is fast becoming a friend of mine, and he’s having a bit of an issue with his photography blog at the moment… actually, with his host. And it may be terminal. I know some of you read his blog, so I just wanted you guys to be aware that he’s fully aware (and a little ticked off). So think happy thoughts, and let’s hope for a successful revival so we can get back to reading his stuff.

UPDATE: Antoine’s site is back up and running! Glad to hear he didn’t lose any information.

    Was this a similar issue to the previous one? I seem to remember him posting something about it all being OK….

    I think this issue is something totally different. The previous problem was with a network problem. He didn’t dive into the details with me, but it sounded like he was having a bit of a battle with his host.

    Fair enough, though considering it took them 12 hours last time to find a faulty cable (you saying it was a network problem jogged my memory), it might be a while…here’s hoping he can get it sorted soon!

    Brian thanks for passing this message along and guys thank you for your support !

    To keep a long story short my horror story with AIT continues. After being recently down for 12 hours because of a network cable it seems, as they say, that a cpu fan error brought my server down again yesterday. However this failure caused a registry corruption and they are unable to bring the server back online. I just wish the data is not lost too that would mean the end of adidap.

    Will keep you posted cross your fingers for me!
