Files.minecraftforget.net is down. Is this planned?

[Kalavinka]

Hey. This happened.

 

Could someone tell me if this is planned maintenance or an unintentional problem?

 

It'd be nice to know if it'll be fixed soon or if I should take a break from server setup for several hours and go get an ice cream or something.

Same here, it does not work

I double-checked with iidrn, using direct and AdFly links, and reinstalling from my latest .jar. The libraries fail to download, so I assume the site is down.

Yes it seems down for me as well. On OSX the launcher gets stuck at preparing when trying to launch from the forge profile. 

[Kalavinka]

Yes, I'm well aware, and that wasn't my intention.

 

I'm trying to ask politely for more information, not rally a protest. Currently, I'm sitting here mashing F5 and I'd like to know if this is something like temporary maintenance or something that'll take longer to fix.

I realized after I posted that there would be a string of Me Toos in the pipeline. My apologies.

[grojo]

So what's going on ?

 

When could we use the site again ?

So a little update for you guys. Turns out the server had electrical issues this morning that OVH had to take care of. 

The physical box is now up, and Flamegoat is working on bringing all the services back online.

So it should be back up soon. Its back up.

 

As for anyone who has issues with downloading the libraries, always remember, they only need to be installed once. So you could get them all manually from maven central.

Thank you very much for addressing this so quickly.
