Title: BitInstant (was) down?
Post by: bitsforcoins.com on January 04, 2012, 12:56:40 PM
I'm seeing a "502 Bad Gateway" message on BitInstant.com from multiple locations.  Is this normal?  I thought these guys were supposed to be well funded now?

It looks like they're back up now, after about 2 hours of downtime.

Looks like some customers reported some downtime, while other's didnt.

We're all cool, back up now.

Thanks

It was down for 1-2 hours in the early morning. One of the process's crashed and needed restarting, we also did a little update.

Thanks to FreeMoney for letting us know!

Try it again, TrustCash was rebooting their servers for about 20 minutes this morning so it may have seemed down.

I'v been trying for about the last half hour I can go to the trustcash website so I know that isnt down but it's still just timing out when I click the 'click to pay now' button.

Yup, we're working on it.

We are on KVM and reconfiguring server test ok, route test ok, NIC test ok - changed NIC reconfigure and then we will go back live. Shouldn't be more then a few minutes.

I will update this thread when it is up.

EDIT: ETA 30 minutes

Neferius,

Are you seeing our limits? Can you send a screenshot?

It was removed sometime ago because of Paypal. I believe that Bitinstant is working to get it back up.
