I always have a ridiculous hope that they're uploading new data when this happens.

Do I have to sign up for Twitter now, in order to get up to date information? :rolleyes:

shanew

I dont think you need to sign in to see posts - you get a login request window which you can ignore

easiest way is look at IGN : https://twitter.com/Irish_Genealogy

Hermy

You're right Shane - I spoke to soon!

shanew

sounds like it was fairly serious problem - wonder if reinstalling software or restoring backups involved....

mickmackey1

images still not working grrr....

Hermy

From Clare Santry :-

UPDATE, 7 April, 11:25am: The National Archives of Ireland has advised that the problem has been identified and the techies are working on correcting it.

And adding loads of new records as recompense for the heartache caused by the cruel absence of these records for so many hours!:P

KildareFan

so I've been wasting my time reporting non availability of images.... would be nice to think they're adding the next year of the records.

Whereisgerry?

Having withdrawal symptoms here!! They need to hurry up and fix it!

Lost without access to these records:(.  Seems wrong that they should be all on the same server!  Same problem with Tithe record images.  
Not connected, but Historicgraves website down as well.  Fingers crossed that that the problems can be rectified without delay.

OSI Mapviewer is down as well.

I don't know the technical in's and out's of it all but it does seem odd that they're all on the one platform.

Has it been fully fixed? Some records seem to be still gone - for example, this used to resolve to my grandmother's birthcert in 1901, now gives "Internal Server Error". A search doesn't show her birth cert at any other URL:

Ah, found it, still there but now under a different URL - I wish the URLs were permanent.
