ESRI Access to Planet Geospatial and My Blog Is Restored

December 5th, 2006 · 4 Comments · GIS

OK, it was as simple as ESRI.com overloading my hosted server:

The XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX IP address was firewalled on the server. Most likely there were a high number of connections coming in from this IP and causing load issues on the server. ESRI.com should no longer have any issues reaching the site, I have removed the entry from the firewall.

    I was just at ESRI in Redlands for a 2 day class and noticed the site couldn’t be accessed. For awhile I thought it was an internal site-being-banned issue or something..

    Ohh come on James, you know this was ESRI’s way of spanking you over that glorious discussion a week back about ADF and AGS!
