AVSIM has been working well for some time now - although slowly at times.

 

However in the UK, it has again started not  connecting between 8 and 9 UTC in the morning.

 

Are others noticing this?

Germany, too.

Yes same here around 9-11 local time here. GMT+1

Yesterday, got a 503 in that time frame too.

 

I have to laugh, because, every time I do get a 503, I think of "23-19!" from Monsters Inc.

 

"23-19!  23-19!"   :lol:

Same here with repeated 503 Errors in between same time frame too.

Same in Ireland, can take up to ten attempts to make a connection in that timeframe.

This is an automatic message.

Jim,

 

I don't understand why this topic  moved and the other thread from a few months ago ("503 Service Unavailable") was left in the Letters to the Editorial Staff of AVSIM forum.

And the answer was given in that thread too .

The reason was that in that time period AVSIM is making their backup .

Is there any chance that we might see Tapatalk support in the future again?

Yes same here around 9-11 local time here. GMT+1

Stockholm, Sweden is actually GMT+2 at the moment, as the rest of western Europe ex. UK and Portugal which is GMT+1  (Daylight saving time)

Has AVSIM only begun making backups at that time - i've only begun to notice this effect? 

My experience is it has been like this since the hardware updates recently .

Don't forget for AVSIM it's the middle of the night for them .

For me it's taking 20 - 30 seconds to load pages ( on average ) at any time of day , so for me at least it has got worse since the hardware upgrades . Other advice was changing browser but I've tried that , makes no difference at all , also use a multi boot system ( XP , Vista and W7 ) .

None of my sites show down care where they are - so I don't think that's the cause.

If you read the " other " thread mentioned above , this was the answer given as it is night time in the US ( so logical for them  to do this at that time ) , it's always going to be " day time " for someone else when they log on. As iI stated earlier this has become more apparent since the hardware update and especially so at 10:30 ( GMT+1 ) , something ( the 503 ) that I never had a " problem " with before .
