DowntimeReport.com

Just opened today...

Script is completely hand coded, probably a bunch of errors in there that I haven't spotted yet. Signup and take a look around. If you find an error, PM or use the contact form on the site so I can check it out and hopefully get it fixed.

Sites are checked every 15 minutes, 24/7/365.

Comments are appreciated... I know that the members area isn't the most secure thing in the world, but it works for its purpose (no data is stored which is sensitive other than the e-mail, and that's not editable or viewable by users when logged in).

Let me know what you think of the site... Thanks!

Registered. Will give feedback on how well it works.

It is showing problems with most of my websites, even though they are located on different servers.

I know that the services it is mentioning arn't down. Strange.

downtime.

I just signed up for your service I like the Idea. There is one thing that I found a little confusing is it states that my site is a 100% down!. But if I click on the "Downtime" link it states that my site has bee up a 100% of the time.

Thanks,

Steve

Found the problem...

As far as the domains to monitor are concerned, they should be in a "yourname.com" format, without the http:// out front. I forgot to put http:// instead of "URL:" on the add a new website page, it's been changed.

I've also fixed all domains which had that problem for current users. Let me know if there's anything else

Thanks!

Rick, nice custom script

Thanks, always coming out with new ones

Going to make this one look nice then package it up after the site's been around for a while and start licensing it... Should bring in a pretty penny as long as I can get it marketed to the right people :P

Heh, another problem found: Whenever any certain service was down, the internal up/down view showed down without any explanation. In the process of making it a link so it can show what's up and what's down. :p

Signing up right now - looks good and I'm eager to try it out.

looks good and seems to be working for me no probs.

1 thing I think you may want to do (or may not) is make the SSH port configurable as alot of people change the port used for security reasons

Not a bad idea, I'm thinking of adding in a way to use custom ports some time in the next few days, not sure how well that would work though...

Thanks for the comments and ideas, still looking for more
