    Maple Leaf Tracks down?

    Is Maple Leaf Tracks down for anyone else? I was interested in nabbing a few things for the Halloween sale, but the site seems to be down. It was working last night when using a direct link to products, but as of today it seems to not be working at all. Just a temporary outage while the sale is being set up? The 3DTrains situation has had me very concerned about old-er MSTS content websites going belly up at random as interest for the sim - and its older content - wanes.

      Just FYI for those interested, an email from Maple Leaf Tracks hit my inbox at ~6:30pm eastern time this evening, with the message below:

      Please be advised that the Maple Leaf Tracks server has a major issue, the shop will down for awhile. Once it is back up and running I will let you all know the sales event will be cancelled for Halloween, UNLESS I can get the store up and running by at least Sunday night.
      Thank you for your patronage.

        It's also just MLT. Tiger and TMT are up and running.

          I just bought the Halloween Trainset from https://www.torontomainlinetrains.ca/store/ and it seems to be working just fine. The only difference being is you have to convert the CA Dollar to US dollars the trainset cost me 11.52 US.

                The MLT site is still down with errors tonight for me. Has there been any further communication?

                  None, that I have heard, Tiger Trains, and Toronto Mainline Trains are both still up. It looks like from the error I'm getting he is having problems with his IP API's output. He is using the same one as I do. Just speculation here, but he might of used up his allotment for the month, depending on the plan he has.

                      It's an error in OpenCart. Can't really speculate beyond that.

                        Good news from Maple Leaf Tracks, an email with the message below appeared in my inbox a short while ago (~11pm eastern US time on 11/10/23), it is good to hear that normal service has apparently been restored. Just a heads up for those interested.

                        " ... Please be advised that the Maple Leaf Tracks server has been restored. Maintenance Mode will be removed after Rememberance Day. You should now also receive emails for your orders, password resets etc., this was an ongoing issue since Nov. 2022. Thank you for your patronage ... "

                          Yup, it was a pretty involved fix and effort by David to get things back up and running... be sure to let him know you appreciate his work and buy a few things!
