Solved Where has http://www.sevenforums.com/ gone?

[wanchoo]

Since this morning whenever I click on http://www.sevenforums.com/ I get a web-page with the picture below.

Sorry I cannot upload the picture because I get the message that the upload has failed. However the web-page is welcome page of internet information services (IIS7).

This may not the correct Forum for this message but I am not able to access any other Forum and therefore I am posting this message here. I have reached here via a Google search.

When shall the SevenForums be back in business?

PS: I have just discovered that I can now access the different Forums by clicking on the links in the messages from SevenForums in which I have posted. This improvement has just come about. However there is no change when I click on http://www.sevenforums.com/.

Perhaps you have IIS turned on. Is your PC setup as a server?

There doesn't appear to be a problem with the link--It works.

Not a problem! I am surprised I beat you as I had a "Page could not be found" message, and had to re-submit again.

The DNS was set for a 12 hour refresh, so it maybe some time until everybody can connect.

I can see now how sevenforums means to everyone.

Getting IIS7 in SF

Have just done a fresh install of 7 Home Pre on my Compaq "Franky" tester and I can link to the SF forum via the email but clicking on another area / section gives me that IIS7 welcome screen.

Now it's beginning to wear a bit thin as my other machines are running fine.

Am I going to have to reinstall 7 and put in all those apps again?

I cleared the browsing data in Chrome and things seem to have normalized again. Thank you everyone for the concern that you all have shown.

Try clearing your browser cache like wanchoo did, the cookies may have been corrupted.

Your welcome wanchoo, glad to hear you have it sorted.
