Web App Builder service down?

[Chi Man]

Hi there,

 Is the service down again? Or it's under maintenance? 

 We are going to publish our app today...............

[Mark]

Same here! Getting timeout exception in the AppBuilder logs in the Output window in VS.

[Mark]

Still down for me.

 

Also logging out (not actually sure if it works) or switching users takes forever. Also all of my cryptographic identities are missing for both iOS and Android after I log in. I've been trying this on both a 4G and ethernet connection - neither slow.

 

I've had this issue in the past but it's been a little while since the last time. Like the OP I too have to publish to the stores TODAY!

My project is about 3MB and the ipa/APK builds are under 2MB. So it can't be a size thing. I've tried two different connections and there's no difference.

I've seen a few threads reporting these timeouts. Colleagues tell me it has been intermittent for them too.

 

[2015-04-28 15:48:30.981] Log (Info,Medium): Requesting Telerik Platform user authentication...

Telerik?

[Chi Man]

I have opened a support ticket but there is still no one taking care of this issue.

 Is that the way to run a cloud service? could you let your cloud service down for hours without any notification to users?

[Mark]

So I've attached fiddler:

 

GET /appbuilder/api/rawSettings/currentUser HTTP/1.1

 

Returns with:

Then there's another request:

GET /appbuilder/api/identityStore/identities HTTP/1.1

 

Which doesn't even receive a response (probably why no identities show) after 6 minutes,

 

Same goes for:

 

GET /appbuilder/api/identityStore/certificationRequests HTTP/1.1

This isn't from me trying to build. This is the login flow for appbuilder that's happening in the background when I start VS.

They finally have an update on their status page:

 

http://status.telerik.com/

[Chi Man]

It takes hours for them to "know" there is an issue. If this is google drive or drop box, it would already become an international headline.

 

[Andrew]

Yes, it has been down since about noon my time (New Zealand, about 7 hours ago, at the time of writing) and I raised a support ticket, no response yet.

I'm currently just getting into my 30 day trial, and not too impressed it's taken about 6 hours for someone to notice and update the status page.  Is this a regular occurrence, does anyone know?  I don't want to pitch this to my bosses if it's going to be an unreliable service.

[Mark]

"Monitoring - We have resolved the issue and are currently monitoring our systems. If you encounter any additional issues, please, contact the Telerik Support team."

 

You will have to logout and in again for it to pick up your certs.

Android and iOS cloud builds are now working. Sigh.

 

[Kaloyan]

Hi guys,

There was a major outage for the AppBuilder cloud services. The good news is that our developers managed to fix it and AppBuilder should be back in its operational state now.

Our monitoring system had failed as well, which lead to the delay in the status page notification. We will further investigate why this had happened and will try to prevent it for the future.

Please, accept our sincere apologies for all the inconveniences caused. Thank you for the understanding in advance.

Regards,
Kaloyan

[Chi Man]

mate, it is the second time since i used this platform for about 2 months.

 Unfortunately, i have already paid for a subscription and i am very upset with the delay of support, there is no level of urgency that we could select in the ticket page.

 Looks like they do not have valid support around the clock and today, 8 co-workers from marketing team and out-source vendor in my meeting room waiting me to load the simulator from app builder for 30 minutes. Today is our final touch up meeting of our app and we planned to launch it in the afternoon if everything is ok.

 It not just embarrass us but delayed our publishing plan to a certain extend.

[Rob]

Hi Everyone,

As a Product Manager for the Telerik Platform, let me please apologize again for the inconvenience caused by this outage. It was one of those "perfect storm" scenarios where we had a problem, but other systems which support notification of those problems failed as well. This is not an excuse, and we are sorry for the impact this had on you and your projects. Rest assured we have resolved these particular issues going forward. Telerik has always been focused on customers and customer success. Please feel free to reach out to me directly if you have any further comments/questions/issues (DM me on twitter @rdlauer).

Thanks,

Rob

[Eileen]

Me too, I am in Auckland New Zealand, and I am in 30 days trial. I can't load projects a few days before but today I can't open files in AppBuilder. So disappointing.

[Tina Stancheva]

Hi Eileen,

Are you using the In-Browser client of AppBuilder? If you have an error in the console log stating that there was an "Unexpected token" detected, then clearing the cache should resolve it.

Please follow these steps to clear the cache:

• In all browsers, log out from platform.telerik.com and telerik.com.
• Clear the cache and your browser cookies for app.icenium.com and platform.telerik.com in all browsers. In Google Chrome, please make sure to select clear cookies from beginning of time.
• Open the DevTools (hit F12) in the browser and navigate to Resources. There, you should see the Local Storage pane in the left. Expand it and select the https://platform.telerik.com storage, then delete its content.

If you are using a different AppBuilder client, please let us know which one. If its the Windows or VS clients, please send us the AppBuilder logs (available under %localappdata%\Telerik\BlackDragon\Logs) and we will further investigate the case.

I am looking forward to your reply.
