Anyone know what's wrong w/ mbz.org mailing lists?
It looks like www.mbz.org and it's mailing lists are down. I know many list members also post here. Anyone have any insight into what's wrong?

I have had them block my IP address and could get on the site. |
Hrm. I certainly haven't done anything to get bounced. Has anyone made it on to the site, or gotten a message, within the last 3 days or so?
|
Hummm
Looks like the last one I got was #2211 on July 1. Dont think I said anything nasty enough to get bounced either :confused: |
Stevo, same here. I don't know what's wrong. :confused:
|
ouch
Do you think that bigbabbo screwed Rusty with his IP in some way?
|
The Diesel-tech, Diesel and 124 lists are all down--my inbox has been too damn quiet over the last few days. I feel like a Borg that's been cut off from its network.
|
Yeah, when you get used to 50 -200 messages a day its quite a shock quitting cold turkey. I've burned up almost as much timing checking my mail to see if the site's up as I would have to read the messages.. .:rolleyes:
|
Rusty doesn't run the mbz.org site. He helps support it. I'll email Richard and find out whats up.
|
why?
what advantage is the MB mail list over this bulletin board? Mail list is such an archaic way to do things. That does not make it bad but...???
I cant see any advantage at all. Many of the same members on the list as to whom are here. Just as much tech. Just as much fun, much easier to read/respond on bulletin board than mail list. No email program limitations too. Oh well to each his own. |
...actually, I think each compliments the other rather nicely. I value both as treasured resources.
|
I haven't gotten any messages from diesel, dieseltech, or 116 (not like that is abnormal though...) for the entire weekend. I can access ***************, mbz.org, but when I go to connect to the mail-list link (lists.mbz.org) I get a timeout.
Hopefully they are progressing and we'll have both of our addictions running strong soon ;) John '79 300SD (2) |

Anyway, I also haven't got any messages since digest #2211. Glad to see it's not something I did. |
Reply from Richard (mbz.org):
It's down. It'll ba back as soon as I can get it fixed. It's complicated. The website(s) are up, but the machine that processes the mailing list is rather badly hosed and it's a very old BSD system and there are "issues" reading the old drives on anything else. It's a day away from being done from when anybody asks; Hopefully tonight but of course I said that last night. I'm building another server to handle the mailing list traffic (non-trivial in quantity, I do more than Mercedes lists here) and it may work out that that machine is up before we fix/upgrade the old one. "soon" is the best I can do. I don't actually know when it'll be back up; I have loaded all the subscription lists and junk on another of my servers and that may in fact come up tonight. Or not. But it'll be soon. I'm jonsing as bad as anybody else, rest assured. Richard |
Anyone have the latest update on the lists? It's been a week now...
|
are they back online?
|
I'm not receiving anything yet, which raises an interesting question--will we be required to re-subscribe when they do finally get back up and running?
|
Dead as a door nail.
I think Richard salvaged the subscriber lists, but I would periodically try to raise lists.mbz.org and resubscribe just to be safe. It's still down, though, so I haven't been able to resubscribe. Other parts of the website seem to be back up. I wonder if Richard just decided to go ahead and migrate to the new server while everything is down? |
They're back up!
Presumably you already know, but in case you have to make a special effort the access your email, the Diesel list at least, is back online.:D :D
|
Yee Haw!
I've reconnected with the Borg collective--I'm whole again.
|
Up again? Not for me.
When I try to access the diesel list on mbz.org's website, I get an error message, the same message I've been getting for a couple of weeks.
Suggestions? Phil '84 and '85 300D's |

Well, it sounds like the web site list server may not yet be up, but the mail server definitely is working again. If you haven't previously subscribed, try sending mail from the email address you want to use to majordomo@mbz.org. Put subscribe diesel in the body (NOT SUBJECT) of the mail. If everything's working right you should get a response in a few minutes, and receive future posts after that. I've gotten around 100 emails from the list today.

What has happened?
July 20 - 2004

Please contact the server administrator, richard@mbz.org and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error. More information about this error may be available in the server error log. |
tjohn to the rescue
Going straight to the mail server worked immediately, delivering about ten digests in one bundle.
My thanks to tjohn. Phil |
Apparently I'm down again after enjoying a hundred or so new posts. Anyone else experiencing problems now?
|
Resistance is futile.
