The problems with AFN have now have been fixed. Summarizing...
Early yesterday morning, around 3am, FTP access to AFN had failed. The AC-EMWIN server was logging repetitive errors in communicating with the AFN server. During this time, no weather bulletins or graphics were able to be uploaded to the AC-SKYWARN web site. However, the AFN web pages were at least *accessible*, if but for some broken image links, such as the watch/warning map, the accompanying legend, and the current readings graphic for the Gainesville Regional Airport. The problem remained for the whole day due to the fact that it was a Sunday and there was no one at CNS to take care of the problem. AFN web access and email finally died altogether sometime around 7pm, last night, and remained that way until about 9am, this morning, when AFN admin was finally able to get right on it.
Meanwhile, AC-EMWIN services to email, cellphone, pager, FAX, listgroups, Facebook, and Twitter were NOT affected by the AFN outage, and continued uninterrupted.
An email from AFN admin this morning confirmed that a file system had filled up and had to be manually emptied.
The following web pages are again operational:
- Alachua County SKYWARN home page
- Alachua County EMWIN Project home page
- Index To SKYWARN Web Pages On The Internet
- Mobile Scanner & RADAR-Detector Laws In The US
Kudos to the AFN team for getting on it pronto, this morning. Thanks guys! You rock!
