Nodejs.org: Receiving intermittent 522 Timeouts on nodejs.org download

[jasnell]

The https://nodejs.org/download site is running very slow and is returning intermittent 522 connection timeouts from cloudflare. It's very inconsistent but definitely having an issue.

[williamkapke]

Yup. Downtime again :(

@nodejs/build

[fhemberger]

Just tested it from Germany: Same issue, page takes forever to load, then a Cloudflare snapshot is shown instead.

[WayneUong]

A few weeks ago it was AWS, now Node..

[mjhea0]

https://nodejs.org/dist/v7.8.0/node-v7.8.0-linux-x64.tar.xz is down for me (Denver, CO)

[NWitmer]

Occurred at 2017-04-04 22:22:25 UTC for us in case it helps looking through the logs

[easauceda]

https://nodejs.org/dist/v6.10.0/node-v6.10.0-headers.tar.gz <-- can't download this either

Same issue, Cloudflare snapshot with 522 error

[MichaelSullivan]

+1 - We are seeing the issue every time we attempt to hit https://nodejs.org/dist/v6.9.4/node-v6.9.4-linux-x64.tar.xz -- not intermittently.

[dorogarcia]

+1 - I have the same problem :(

[mtthwgry]

http://nodejs.org/dist/v0.10.30/node-v0.10.30-linux-x64.tar.gz has been dead in the water for the past 30-ish minutes.

[feross]

FYI, for anyone wondering why Travis is running their tests using Node 0.10, no matter what you specify, it's because of this issue.

[blakewest]

We're seeing this on Circle CI too, every time, for node 6.7:

[brocoli]

Same here, can't even open the "all downloads" page from nodejs.org in Brazil.
Can't deploy app because npm install fails when trying to download node v4.6.2 headers for node-gyp

[fluxsauce]

Similar on Travis CI.

[jonnylynchy]

Same here. Getting checksum verification issues after timeout.

Checksums do not match.
Binary download failed, trying source.

[vvillait88]

Heroku node deploys are broken too

[Salompas]

Same here, trying to install v7.8.0 through nvm and Checksum fails.

[drazisil]

CircleCI here. Monitoring this thread. Can the NodeJS team ping us when resolved?

If all you need is a node download, there's a mirror at https://cnpmjs.org/mirrors/node/.

[jules2689]

There is also this mirror: https://mirrors.ustc.edu.cn/node/
I was able to successfully download 6.1.0 for linux x64 and verify the checksum.

[krypt3d]

Thanks for the mirror sites guys

[feryardiant]

Same issue here.

Can't install node 6 & also with checksums missmatch

EDIT

Thanks for the mirror sites 😁

[simllll]

I'm using elastic beanstalk, my deployment fails right now due to

node-gyp rebuild

Do you have any idea how I could specify a mirror site in this case?? thanks

[ecoruh]

Australia. No luck, I have error 522 too. I first suspected nvm-windows playing up, and uninstalled node.js. Now i can't download it either.

[interglobalmedia]

Still down. Any idea when it might be running again?

[ecoruh]

The lesson for me: stick to your msi.

[jasnell]

No clear picture yet. The issue appears to be with a file system failure at the New York data center. Will update when we can.

[enzoftware]

I can't download nodejs from the official web , when will be return the downloads?

[jbergstroem]

Disk issue; digitalocean confirmed. We have an issue opened. Http://unencrypted.nodejs.org acts as mirror should you need.

[interglobalmedia]

Well, hopefully it gets fixed quickly!

[ibc]

FYI, for anyone wondering why Travis is running their tests using Node 0.10, no matter what you specify, it's because of this issue.

@feross, in my case, even if my .travis.yaml file specifies node 4, 6 and 7, the executed version is always v4.1.2.

[llama]

My server just successfully downloaded from nodejs.org. Go download fast before the thundering herd arrives.

[jbergstroem]

@llama said:

Let me remind everyone that http://unencrypted.nodejs.org is available over http and rsync if you need to download.

We're working as quick as we can to be back online.

[makeawebsitewithhtml]

@llama Still not working for me.

[interglobalmedia]

Also still not working for me.

[dorogarcia]

working!!!

[ericjiang97]

Working!!!

@interglobalmedia et al. -- please note the highlighted text. Your comments on this thread are sent to hundreds of people, waiting to hear crucial updates. I understand your intent is to be helpful; hopefully this additional context clarifies all the 👎 reactions.

[ghost]

Working!

[jbergstroem]

DO just told us that everything should be fixed. We can expect a post-mortem tomorrow (think 24h). We will update as we get more information.

Edit: should also mention that I can confirm that disk IO and load have returned to near-normal levels.

Edit2: the build team will confer on a few actions so we become more resilient against one hosting provider having issues. I'll link to the issue once created.

[jasnell]

Now that we're back up and running, I'm going to close and lock this issue. Thank you everyone for your patience during the outage.

Try this one http://ftp.yzu.edu.tw/nodejs.org-dist when you need it, ping me if you need support.
