    What we learnt from yesterday’s Namecheap outage: When your infrastructure sits in one data center abroad, one power/cooling failure can take down thousands of sites, emails, and domains at once. Local, distributed hosting reduces that single point of failure.

    Our email service has been restored after yesterday's @Namecheap outage. We're not sure whether all emails sent during the outage were successfully delivered. If you emailed us on August 13 and haven't heard back by the end of August 14, please resend your email. Thanks!

    @UK_Daniel_Card @Namecheap All my sites went down RIP. But I still love namecheap. This isn't their fault.

    Our VPS has been down and intermittently inaccessible since yesterday, with no prior notice, no email, no clear explanation, and not even an apology. This is not the level of reliability or communication we expect from a VPS provider. @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO

    @bhartzer @Namecheap Say your hosting service goes down. You log into your DNS provider and point the domain where exactly? Are you telling people they should keep separate copies of their websites with different hosts?? So that if one goes down, you just point it to the other? Shut ******** up 🚮

    @TheRealTbch @NamecheapCEO I can't believe my eyes right now. I moved to namecheap in 2015 when the hosting company I'd been working with for 11 years shut down without notifying us. I hope this is not a dejavu

    @420GHz @Namecheap I know this, but apparently the Porn Bots trying to advertise Porn Cam links seems to have been halted right now as I've not seen any of those bots on here, wonder if this means the "Stripchat" bots are using the service for their Cyber Crime activity and may have overloaded it?

    @NamecheapCEO Should my team go to the office tomorrow yes or no? Namecheap isn’t giving me an answer. Server is still down. Do we close indefinitely?

    @bhartzer @Namecheap Yes, and never host your website with your domain registrar.

    @Namecheap - been over 5 hours, and still no access to cPanel or Email. Live chat is completely unresponsive. I see the most recent update, but there's still nothing happening. Someone help me.

  • team_pitch
    Pitch Market Strategies & Public Relations, LLC (@team_pitch) reported

    @Victual_Bro @Namecheap I just recently migrated my operations systems over to their VPS and it’s all down. Absolutely insane. How are those servers not cool enough to spin up by now? The longer this drags out, the less it makes sense. The CEO said temporary chillers on site being WERE installed

    Veronica B. (@verobendarg) reported

    @Namecheap Our dedicated servers are still down!!! According to your news they should be working but they are not. I have been working with customer support for 2 and a half hours now and no answers yet!

    @Shreddedmasses @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap Yeah hopefully they all go to ionos instead of network solutions.. buuuut i fear with sooo maaaannnnyyy brands .. people will end up back at their doorstep eventually.. Unless they go hetzner

  • ousher23
    not ousher (@ousher23) reported

    @UK_Daniel_Card @Namecheap Yes, major outage. A storm-triggered cooling system failure at the PhoenixNAP facility forced Namecheap to shut down over 5,000 servers to prevent hardware damage, though services are currently coming back online progressively.

    @doctorbeau @NamecheapCEO i am not trying to be combative, but you have 30k a day of liability risked against a single platform??? that isn't namecheap's fault. today's disaster aside, you should have been planning for when something like this happened. for the record i have hundreds of domains with namecheap and not a single one went down today... cause i don't have any single points of failure

  • BDiesel6
    B Diesel (@BDiesel6) reported

    @NamecheapCEO @Namecheap Had some emails come in. The volume of emails seems within typical range but on low side. High stakes issue where can not ask other party whether they sent an email. But also can not miss one if they did. Can you say with absolute certainty that all emails were preserved?

    @NamecheapCEO Hello @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO Many of my sites are still getting Error 503. Service Unavailable The server is temporarily unavailable. Please check back shortly. If this problem persists, please contact our Technical Support department.

    @bhartzer @Namecheap i thought about this last time when namecheap server went down. its not just changing dns. its also about restoring data on a new server or if the data is already there it needs to be replicated to match updated data on the primary server and it is a bit tricky for dynamic sites

    Meet Lenka (@meetlenka) reported

    @Namecheap Websites are still down. Can't even login to my social accounts as they are connected to the email going through Namecheap. I know, **** happens sometimes, but this is really too much. I'm moving to another hoster

    @Namecheap Our website has been down all day due to this issue. This is seriously affecting our ability to properly assist our customers and process orders. We need this issue resolved as soon as possible. Please provide an update and a solution. This has been going on for hours.
