You may have noticed some interruption with your website availability lately. These outages have been caused by DDoS attacks. Simply put, a DDoS attack simulates millions of computers trying to access a website at the same time. This puts tremendous stress on the online infrastructure and can make accessing a website difficult, or impossible.

Pixlr Issues - Unable to edit images - RESOLVED
Pixlr Issues - Unable to edit images - RESOLVED
**Update - This issue is now resolved, images can be edited when logged in using Google Chrome**

Our image editing service provider is currently experiencing technical issues surrounding their site's security certificate. Although this doesn't represent any security risk, as our Website Manager is always secure, most browsers will not allow the image editor to load in the context of this.

We are in contact with Pixlr's support team - and are working at getting it resolved as soon as possible. We will make any updates here.

In the meantime, you can use the image editor here: http://pixlr.com/express/. You will need to download the photos you wish to edit, and re-upload them after edits have been made.

Sorry for the inconvenience, and thank you for your patience!

Webdrive outage - RESOLVED
Webdrive outage - RESOLVED

One of our bandwidth providers in New Zealand, Webdrive, has experienced a distributed denial of service attack against a site on their network, and this has caused an outage of approximately 15 minutes for many of our NZ hosted websites.  This should be partially resolved now as Webdrive have had to block access to the site being attacked - but their network is not 100%, so some packet loss and slowness may still occur. We are in touch with Webdrive, and we will keep you updated as to when this is resolved.

Resolved: All sites should now be operating normally. Please get in touch with Support if you continue to experience problems.

Website Outage
Website Outage
As a result of some scheduled maintenance last night, some of our websites may be down. We are aware of this issue and we are working to get affected websites up as soon as possible! We apologise for any inconvenience.

UPDATE - All affected websites should now be back up and visible. If you think your website is still affected please contact the Support team (Ext 1) so we can check for you. Thank you for your understanding.

FURTHER UPDATE - Server maintenance was carried out on one of our server pools with an expectation of 0% downtime , and the server clusters were running on half the normal capacity during maintenance. When the maintenance was completed, the servers came back online and unfortunately during this process the disks weren't mounted on some of the servers before the application servers started, causing some of websites to give an error. This was limited to few sites on some of our server clusters , and we can confirm that this issue is solved now.
