Same issue here, hehe.

It should be up and running now. There may be some issues for some sites for the next 24 hours as the domains propagate.

The DNS seems to be fully propogated and I have cleaned up a few of the links and such. Most every active va is sending data and it is being posted. I also believe I have fixed the bug that was causing many live flights to not be shown on the map. I did however set the time limit to 3 minutes, meaning that if a flight has not updated in the last 3 minutes it is dropped form the map, there is just too many to keep them very long.

If you can give me the IP address of your server I can make sure it is not blocked in the firewall for some reason.

(Edit) - I just checked what I think is your IP (204.246.51.163) and it is not in any firewall setting. - Are you getting any errors in the logs?

The IP address is correct. Here is the error message: Error: System.Net.WebException: The remote name could not be resolved: 'api.vacentral.net' at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.GetRequestStream(TransportContext& context) at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.GetRequestStream() at CanadianXpress.vaCentral.ButtonSendStats_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e)

Change your api url from api.vacentral.net to api.phpvms.net

I did not think that anyone was still using that api url.

Changing the api URL did the trick. Thanks for the help.
