loosing conection to my abyss servor

mobileplaza

hey peps. im running abyss servor x1 v 2.0.0.20, and have no-ip duc. all works fine but after a period of time i can no longer connect to my site. seems like the dns is not updating or something like that. has anyone got any ideas?
my site: http://mobileplaza.no-ip.info

If this is accessing the site remotely then your router may be disconnecting the dsl connection. In the console of the router you will need to activate keep alive and set it for the lowest possible settings so when its disconnected, it reconnects automatically again.
Hope this helps.

I could view your site perfect and it loaded fast too!
Im sure you can change the time intervals that the client checks your IP address for changes, or something like that. I use ipUpdater client and that pings yahoo.com every now and again too, I think that is for checking internet connectivity. This info is very vague and I am not 100%, but it may give you something to go off?
Hope it helps in some way!

not sure i follow that mate... can u see my site on the link?

richardyork

Yes I can view your site by clicking on the link you provided in your first post!
Have a look at the settings in the no-ip client. Maybe it is different to the one I use? Like I said, Im no expert with this type of issue, I was simply suggesting a few things of the top of my head that maybe useful!

Try accessing it via your ip address: http://www.aprelium.com/ip

This is probably because your router/modem does not support loopback, dont worry about it. Many routers/modems have the same problem.
To check if other people can see it, use a proxy:

It seems to be offline now and times-out all the time! You may not be able to access your forum via you IP address because of the way your hyperlinks are!

Would be wrong

<a href="/forum">Forum</a>

Would be Ok

I dont see how

<a href="http://mobileplaza.no-ip.info/forum">Forum</a>

should make a difference. This would only have problems if accessing locally and the router or modem doesnt support loopback.
Id try it. Could work.

richardyork

I meant if he viewed it locally via http://127.0.0.1
It would also be wrong if his update client isn't working because the domain name wouldn't be pointing to his IP address! Therefore, http://mobileplaza.no-ip.info "would not exist" and cause time-outs but his IP address would be OK, as you know! Thats why I always hyperlink this way:

<a href="/forum">Forum</a>

This way, no matter wether you use 127.0.0.1, localhost, External IP or domain name, you can always access all links and none will be broken!!
Know what I mean now?

mobileplaza,
Associate your DNS name with IP 127.0.0.1 in the hosts file. Read http://www.aprelium.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=7400 for more information.
