cryptopp.com website down for some time

[davidljung]

The website for Crypto++ with the documentation reference has been down for a while ( www.cryptopp.com ).

I'm unsure if the maintainer is aware of it (hence this issue).

Wondering if this is a temporary situation with a crashed server, or something more permanent. If more permanent, perhaps we can try to find someone else to take on the hosting and domain, with the maintainer's permission?

Regards.

@weidai11 @noloader Not having a docs website is hurting this project, we can't get API info. Just host on github for free and you are done

Yeah, there seems to be some DNS problems. HTTPS will be broke until we can get things sorted out.

Try this for the time being:

$ cat /etc/hosts 
...

93.127.197.30 cryptopp.com www.cryptopp.com

Thanks @noloader Works!

FYI to anyone reading this, only HTTP http://www.cryptopp.com

@ramezrafla I am trying to access it now but I can't connect. Are you able to run the site?

[ramezrafla]

@andreshduque Yes .. add this to your hosts file

93.127.197.30 cryptopp.com www.cryptopp.com

Then open http://www.cryptopp.com (no https)

[andreshduque]

It works, thank you @ramezrafla

Who does not want to change hosts file or for a quick look, http://93.127.197.30 should do. Even simple 93.127.197.30 as URL might connect.

April 2025: www.cryptopp.com is alive, except RSA and DSA links; would be nice to know details about RSAES hash functions.
