Main Joomla.org web site down

Post by bwkeybdman » Tue Mar 11, 2008 5:11 pm

Hi all,

Could not find anything on this in the forum. I notice http://www.joomla.org is down. Any idea when it will be back up?

:)

Thanks,
Bill

An application on the server needs to be restarted. A few hours ago, we sent an email to the server administrator. We expect the website to be back online very shortly.

It seems a log file blew out to over 2gb in size. As a result Apache was having issues. All sorted now.
