It's still broken. It's bad. It's embarrassing. They will extend the deadline or suffer the wrath of thousands of geoscientists. It's almost becoming a tradition.

Dear Colleagues,
AGU server seems to have some problems and the site is not available to upload abstract. Does any one have suggestions?


AGU's aware of the problem, as I got a response from them about 4 hours ago ... saying they had an ETA of 2 hrs to restore it.  (see below).

Now, in their defense, they *did* get it back up, but I noticed some odd issues that would've made session search unusable ... I didn't really get a chance to poke around too much before it went back offline.

Dear Joe,

We are aware of the issue with the website. Our IS team is frantically working to resolve the problem. They estimate that the site will be back online again in approximately 2 hours. We will let you know what action AGU will take should the technical difficulties continue.  I apologize for any inconvenience this has caused.

Please let us know if you have any other question we can assist you with in the interim.

Best,
Haley Cox

I have no idea who to contact at the AGU, but your 'fallmeeting.agu.org' site is returning a test page for Apache on Red Hat, and all other pages are returning 'Forbidden' messages.

www.agu.org redirects to 'sites.agu.org', which gives 'Error establishing a database connection'
