Graphviz.org site is down
I was about to checkout Graphviz but the www.graphviz.org site appears to be down.
What does traceroute say?
I suspect a routing error; the site is up.

I met the same issue today no matter if I set a proxy or not, and Chrome stated:
This webpage is not available
ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT
the ping looked good, portqry to port 80 was FILTERED with a long latency, it looks like there is something wrong with the routing, tracert reports 28 hops to reach the site.
Generally, no idea if there is something wrong with my network and I will try if I get to another network.
We can confirm this using Looking Glass sites in Asia and Europe.
It appears there is a problem in network 12 (AT&T). Hopefully an insider can ask someone in AT&T to look at this.
Google Chrome could not load the webpage because www.graphviz.org took too long to respond. The website may be down, or you may be experiencing issues with your Internet connection.
It's now a placeholder spam site saying "This domain name expired on Mar 13 2016 09:04:49:000PM ".
Well, not for me, and the domain is renewed through joker.com through 2017, but things fall apart.
Not sure how this is related to routing problems within AT&T AS7018, but that seems to be a problem right now.
Maybe when John Ellson gets back from vacation he can intervene. Otherwise we hope to move to a different hosting service before too long.

Thanks. It looks like fibertransit.com itself may be gone or lost its DNS. We could find a new DNS registrar, of course. Stephen

Sorry, I meant to say nameserver.

This issue seems to happen from time to time. I would like to see a mirror site, or some more funding for the website.
In the past month, my team and I regularly are unable to reach the site. We are mostly remote and have different service providers. I'll also add that the direct IP appears unavailable as well (and that is a hack at best).
I am having similar problems. The site worked briefly for me last night, and I was able to get and preserve some .rpm files so we can install into our development VMs, but today the site is not working again. And similarly to jrgarcia, when it is not working, using the IP address does not help.
Site has been down from Australia for several days.
- You can get archives of the site (or almost any site) from archive.org .
- Here's the versions available ... https://web.archive.org/web/*/graphviz.org
If you're having trouble convincing your hosting service that it's broken send them a link from this service that shows how many places around the world cannot perform a ping to your domain name:
- http://www.super-ping.com/?ping=graphviz.org&locale=en
Ping appears to work for a handful of places but broken almost everywhere else. Also explains why archive.org was able to fetch a very recent copy of the site.

Tony,
Super-Ping shows google.com unreachable from Adelaide, Aukland, Toronto, Beauharnois, Lenoir NC, Buffalo NY, Frankfurt, Vilius & Amsterdam.
I think that if all of those were off-line for google.com we would have heard the screams worldwide so I suspect that some of Super-pings
servers are offline.

I think it's something server-side that's broken.

I eventually got the page sent back to me after 5 minutes. It says X-Powered-By: PHP/5.1.6 so I think that (or a database issue) must be part of the problem.
Same problem here in the Netherlands. The site times out 9 out of 10 times, however, ping does come through most of the time.
Also, I was interested in contributing to this project, but I can't find a lot of information for developers. Links to the mailing list are also unreachable. How can I best contribute?
Same problems from Germany.
It would be nice if the binaries would be hosted for download in a well established infrastructure somewhere with a permalink. This unreliable connection really dims the fun with this great tool.
Still down for me from Brisbane, Australia. This site seems to be implying that the site has been down the vast majority of the time for at least the last two weeks at least, and on the rare occasions it's been up, the ping has been over 5 seconds.
Currenty not reachable.
This site can’t be reached
The connection was reset.
ERR_CONNECTION_RESET
I fail to understand why the releases are not on github as well. If github is the master repository, it also should be the master for the release artifacts, imho. Luckily homebrew is smart enough to try a mirror (http://mirrors.ocf.berkeley.edu/debian/pool/main/g/graphviz/graphviz_2.38.0.orig.tar.gz) after a subjective eternity.
The site is also down in the Netherlands. Conversely chocolately cannot install it anymore, because it tries to fetch it from the source. I second the suggestion to move the artifacts to GitHub; and also maybe use a new host and a reverse caching proxy (CloudFlare or something like that).
Just sent a message to the hosting service. Have the owners of the domain done this already?
The graphviz homepage has down intermittently (in a way that makes it just feel slow, because it comes up randomly) for months for me. It's absolutely atrocious to browse the documentation when every other link you follow causes a timeout. There is no problem on my end -- using my university network and everything else seems to work fine. Moreover, after it times out, the title of the site is "Site off-line | Drupal", so there is clearly something wrong with the website.
We've been having troubles with the web page for a while, and have been working to fix them. We are sorry for the inconvenience. Doubly so, because we can't get to them either. Complicating the issue is that those of us supporting Graphviz no longer have this as one of our main jobs, and have lost access to a lot of resources.

Can neither access http://204.178.9.49/ nor graphviz.org (from Berlin, Germany).
@emdenrg If you're having trouble getting access to anything (domain registration, DNS or hosting) I may have some ideas/suggestions to get this sorted and I'd love to see this very valuable resource preserved well. I've run a small hosting service for many years and so have had to help others in similar predicaments. Feel free to Skype me (ID: tony.ohagan, timezone: UTC+10) and just remind me who you are when you do.
P.S. I'm not selling anything including hosting!
