F4map site affected by fire in Strasbourg?

Hello everybody,
did F4map happen to have their tileservers hosted at the OVH data centre in Strasbourg?

It appears that two thirds of the French web is affected.
This would explain why since today, demo.f4map.com is somewhat dysfunctional, buildings partly visible but the map tile server seems down.
Let’s hope that they’ll get the problem solved.

Hello :slight_smile:

Yes, one of the two f4 map servers was hosted in SBG2, so right now the “surviving” server must catch on all the tiles that were in the lost one, and is overloaded at the moment. However, you should still get tiles albeit slowly.
We’ll reinstall a server as soon as OVH provides one, so hopefully in the next few weeks. in the meantime, tiles will be slow, but should gain in speed as the last server caches more tiles :slight_smile:

Hi, thanks for the feedback. Too bad it was in SBG2.
Good luck and I’ll do some other stuff in the meanwhile so as not to overload the server :wink:
