No downtime was experienced at all. Please contact our Support Team (http://support.wisehosting.net) in case of facing any issues. Thank You Hiccups 06-20-2002, 10:12 PM I have a site at wisehosting and it has not been down today at all. I could not log in to my cpanel for a while, but the site never went down. cornnuts 07-24-2002, 06:56 PM sorry it took so long to reply... @ sina, yes you were down. i did try contacting support but the wisehosting.net site was down too... @ hiccups, before you post please pay attention to the post date. i posted on thee 20th, you on the 21st BTW, my site is down again today and so is the wisehosting.net site so there is no way i can contact support. i'll give it a few hours like last time, maybe by then my site will be up again...sigh... Lucifer 07-24-2002, 07:11 PM Down over two hours since I first noticed it this morning (Australian time) Who knows how long it has really been? IGobyTerry 07-24-2002, 07:12 PM I can't get to wisehosting.net right (7:13PM Eastern Time) cornnuts 07-24-2002, 07:31 PM i've been online for 2 hours and my site is still down. like the other guy i'm wondering how long it has really been down. it's 4:30 pm in california... Gem Hexen 07-24-2002, 07:33 PM Can't get through to wisehosting.net Lucifer 07-24-2002, 07:34 PM You know, (hint, hint) we wouldn't have to complain here if wisehosting had a forum and support on a different machine to the client's sites, or even an email address hosted outside the system. Hiccups 07-24-2002, 08:39 PM Down for me too. :( How long have things been down? ntwaddel 07-24-2002, 08:51 PM i cant get to http://www.wisehosting.net right now 5:53pm PST Sina 07-24-2002, 09:20 PM Hi, Guys it should be up soon, we had some issues during the upgrade of apaches due to the new PHP exploit. Sorry for the inconvenience. Thank You Hiccups 07-24-2002, 09:33 PM Thanks for the info Sina. :D Gem Hexen 07-24-2002, 09:35 PM Originally posted by Sina Hi, Guys it should be up soon, we had some issues during the upgrade of apaches due to the new PHP exploit. Sorry for the inconvenience. Thank You issues tying /scripts/easyapache or something more? Sina 07-24-2002, 09:39 PM its back up, Thank you for all your patience everybody. And IT Hosting I believe /scripts/eacyapache causes many problems, its best to go through the LAYER1 for the php upgrade however we did not choose either way due to some internal issues. Thanks anyways. Lucifer 07-24-2002, 11:06 PM Well now it's down again. cornnuts 07-24-2002, 11:26 PM 8:23 pm on the west coast and it's still down, this has got to be the longest downtime ever...help.. ntwaddel 07-24-2002, 11:49 PM Originally posted by cornnuts 8:23 pm on the west coast and it's still down, this has got to be the longest downtime ever...help.. haha, that is nothing compaired to cyberwings :-P WiseOnline 07-24-2002, 11:55 PM Not good, atleasdt not for us since we are WiseOnline. We are no way affiliated with wisehosting. Thanks God from what I see. :) Sina 07-25-2002, 12:05 AM We're working on it. Email is up and working properly.

Most people will have custom settings for php/apache and compile it by hand, so running that above command is not as easy as you think. -Steven WiseOnline 07-25-2002, 12:25 AM Any unhappy customers contact me via PM :) Sina 07-25-2002, 12:31 AM We are putting all our effort in resolving and getting everything back up since it was un-expected. However we will issue credits to anyone on the servers down for more than 3 hours. contact me at sina@wisehosting.net. P.S WiseOnline: :stickout take it easy WiseOnline 07-25-2002, 12:33 AM Still love ya Sina. BTW, nice name :D WiseOnline 07-25-2002, 12:33 AM Good luck to you and your staff. Happy Hosting ;) Hiccups 07-25-2002, 01:01 AM Originally posted by WiseOnline Any unhappy customers contact me via PM :) You have 100% uptime or something? Nothing ever goes wrong over at your place? Thanks, but I will stay at http://wisehosting.net The few times things have ever gone down it hasn't been a long time and they have always been good at letting people what's going on. As long as I know things are being taken care of as quickly as possible on their end, I feel no need to panic and jump ship. Sina 07-25-2002, 01:03 AM Thank You Hiccups :) I appreciate your cooporation. vanguardcorp 07-25-2002, 01:55 AM Originally posted by Sina We are putting all our effort in resolving and getting everything back up since it was un-expected. However we will issue credits to anyone on the servers down for more than 3 hours. contact me at sina@wisehosting.net. P.S WiseOnline: :stickout take it easy You advertise a 99.9% uptime guarantee. What a joke! Since May 21st we've been trying to get credit for the hours of downtime we had during that week. We've written support tickets, emailed Support, emailed Sales, and emailed you personally Sina. All have been ignored, except the response from you saying we would receive the refund. But here we are 2 months later and still no refund and just more downtime. You also advertise 24/7 support. Support was fine during May and early June. But now we have had simple support tickets open for 3+ days at a time without any response! Emails to Support and Sales also go unanswered. Your support is more like 1 hour, 2 days a week, if that! In April we were told that the Parked Domain and Domain Pointer functions were broken in WHM. All of these would have to be setup through support tickets. On April 29th, we were told "it'll be done by tomorrow but just to be safe I'll say you give us 2-3 days". Now 3 months later, it's still unavailable. Also in April wisehosting had all of their customers vote on which skin they should buy for the servers. We all voted and waited for the winner to be installed. At the end of April we were told "We are configuring 10 new servers by may 10th and the skin should be up around may 15th". Today is July 25th and we have yet to see the new skin! And today our sites have been down for over 10 hours already! What does all of this mean? I think it's crystal clear. We do not recommend wisehosting.net (w-i-s-e-h-o-s-ti-n-g-.-n-e-t) to anyone. :( Sina 07-25-2002, 02:19 AM vanguardcorp, What is your username ? and please send me your ticket numbers which have not been responded to. We are working as hard as we can on this issue. And yes we will issue credits for this month to all clients on these servers. WiseOnline 07-25-2002, 02:24 AM Sina, what's the problem hun? Lucifer 07-25-2002, 02:29 AM The problem is the server is not working and that is between us and Sina so butt out wise guy. (You don't even seem to have a site unless that page full of banners at www.wiseonline.com IS your site) WiseOnline 07-25-2002, 02:32 AM Don't get mad at me since wisehosting.net is down, and everyone is mad that they have been down. In addition, not my fault someone fell off the bed and mesed up the server. Release your anger with your poor support team. WiseOnline 07-25-2002, 02:33 AM And also, watch what you say, you never know who you are talking to. You never ever know ;) vanguardcorp 07-25-2002, 02:37 AM Originally posted by Sina vanguardcorp, What is your username ? and please send me your ticket numbers which have not been responded to. We are working as hard as we can on this issue. And yes we will issue credits for this month to all clients on these servers. I've emailed the username and other info to you. I also emailed another refund request 30 minutes ago. But I'm guessing your wisehosting.net email address is down right now since our email is down too. Also both the wisehosting.net main site and support ticket site are still down. I'll try again tomorrow. Sina 07-25-2002, 02:38 AM I will receive your email, no need. Thank You WiseOnline 07-25-2002, 02:40 AM Sina, no offense in regards to any prior messages. I can see that your doing a good job working on the situation. Keep up the good work, best of luck to you and your company in this event. WiseOnline 07-25-2002, 02:41 AM I'm done posting on this thread. Good day all. Lucifer 07-25-2002, 02:41 AM Originally posted by WiseOnline And also, watch what you say, you never know who you are talking to. You never ever know You've got that right. I suspect that most hosting "companies" are run by 15 year olds and the tech support is their little brother. Sina 07-25-2002, 03:13 AM good news :D I have to thank all you for your patience and cooperation. Thank You very much. Hiccups 07-25-2002, 03:13 AM Originally posted by Sina Thank You Hiccups :) I appreciate your cooporation. You're welcome. Thanks for keeping us updated here. I've never personally had any problems with support there. I don't think I have ever waited more than a few hours for a reply to a support ticket, maybe 3-4 hours tops. I've gotten help from your support people with problems caused by my own mistakes. I can't speak for everyone, but that has been my experience anyway. didge 07-25-2002, 03:16 AM Thanks Sina, our site is up again. You did it:D Hiccups 07-25-2002, 03:20 AM Works for me. :D dot.K 07-25-2002, 05:53 AM Mine still aren't .. can't seem to reach the dns servers from Skynet Belgium. cornnuts 08-09-2002, 01:19 AM :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: cornnuts 08-09-2002, 01:24 AM Originally posted by vanguardcorp You advertise a 99.9% uptime guarantee.

Sent them an email one hour ago but no reply yet. cornnuts 08-31-2002, 07:29 PM crud... this really sucks. does anyone know if they are reselling someone else's services? i wanna steer clear when picking a new host...

Alert!: Unable to connect to remote host. I think it's time to find a new connectivity provider and/or system administrator(s) who know what they're doing. Just my two cents after reading this thread. dot.K 09-02-2002, 08:54 AM My domains have been down more than up ... sorry guys .. you lost my confidence ... Some domains haven't been accessible from Belgium for over the last month and there aren't any improvements it seems .. I'm movin' out. Lucifer 09-02-2002, 09:42 AM Grrrr didge 09-02-2002, 01:13 PM Already more than 6 hours down and NO news from Wisehosting. Can't send email because their domain is not resolving, can't reach their support site. Yesterdays problems had something to do with a DOS attack (so support told me a few hours later). What is it this time ? Again we have to guess. I have 5 websites running on their servers. What do I tell my visitors ? I don't call this a professional service anymore. I am also considering of moving out, if they will let me (because of a yearly agreement). :rolleyes: Sorry, confidence is melting away. Communication is crucial in this business. Hiccups 09-02-2002, 01:44 PM I signed up with them to begin with because when I did a search on them here there were good things said about them, but nothing bad that I could find. Support there has been great. They have, more than once, helped me with problems that were MY problems, not theirs, and have always responded quickly to any questions I had. Because I have been so impressed by their support, I have hung in there with them, just figuring there are glitches here and there and they do fix things as fast as they can, and once they are back up again they reply quickly again. My site has been up more than it has been down by quite a lot, but the downtimes are becoming very annoying in their frequency. Usually they aren't down for long when they are down. This is 'only' the second time since I started with them that they have been down this long. I hope whatever keeps causing the problems is resolved soon. I really don't want to move. :bawling: Hiccups 09-02-2002, 01:58 PM Up again now anyway. :) Hope for a long time this time... didge 09-18-2002, 02:42 AM The complete Wisehosting network seems to be down again.
