Not sure if this is the right place to post this but here we go:

 

My scripts which dynamically p[Mod - Happy Thoughts] the different servers locked on to vattastic and it brought my whole service down. further testing showed that net-flyer is also down. Can we please have http://data.vattastic.com/vatsim-data.txt and http://www.net-flyer.net/DataFeed/vatsim-data.txt removed from the server list at http://stats.vatsim.net/status.txt? Or do our scripts now have to check to see if those files are up before using them as well. I ha thought that whatever feeds the status.txt page was idiot checking those servers periodically. If this is not the case, each service should do so themselves.

 

vattastic is giving a 500 error

net-flyer is giving a 404 error

If the issue is that there isn't enough people willing to host this file, I would be happy to add myfsim.com to that list. If there is a need, please email me as I don't log on to the forums here very often. I can be reached at mtn1474 [//[ AT ]//] caseydiers.com. Please provide me with some sort of idea of what kind of traffic I should expect, but I don't think it would be a problem. I have hundreds of GB/mo of traffic that I'm not using on this server.

 

myfsim.com

216.224.164.11

 

I currently have roughly 4.5 nines of uptime over the past two years. (about 30 min down per year)

 

I have gotten so much out of Vatsim over the past ten years (or so), I would be happy to give back. Email me if there is a need and / or interest.

My server (AirCharts) hosts it and is alive. You should be fault-checking, regardless, unless you don't want data. If a server fails, try another. If I remember correctly, the status.txt isn't really dynamically generated but rather it's setup and left alone and only modified when new mirrors are added.

status txt is updated by hand, in fact you should check it on startup or every 24 hrs.

 

If a server is down use a different one, sorry.
