3:55 PM Eastern: Our entire website hosted on cloudflare pages is returning 500. I also cannot login to the dashboard either (it just spins)
EDIT 4:10 PM Eastern: Now I can login to the dashboard but "Workers and Pages" menu is returning errors and no access. Website still down :(
EDIT at 4:23 PM Eastern: RESOLVED. Website (cloudflare pages) is back up now for me.
Looks like they took about 25 mins to resolve.
- camjohnson26 3y agoOur prod app and staging just completely died. Bad day for somebody at Cloudflare
- codegeek 3y agoOur main Marketing website that brings revenue is down. No Sympathy from me. It has been 20 mins now. Losing money as I type this. EDIT: I panicked a little. As a dev, I should have been more sympathetic.
- acdha 3y agoIt’s only reasonable to be angry but do try to remember that the people fixing this are people like you who showed up at work to build something and are instead dealing with a fire. Ask their bosses about how they got in that situation but be nice to them, they’re having an even worse day than you are.
- codegeek 3y agoFair enough. They resolved it now and I was in a bit of panic considering our revenue depends on the website. As a developer though, I should have been more sympathetic.
- andrelaszlo 3y agoI'm curious, I definitely get the panic. How much does a 30 minute outage cost you, vs how much would it cost to build a solution with some kind of standby that you could fail over to in scenarios like this? It could be worth it, but if you do the math and it seems like it's not worth it, it could perhaps give you some equanimity the next time it happens?
- codegeek 3y agoHonestly, the impact may be less monetary and more reputation but as a B2B SAAS provider, I agree that it may not have been that dramatic as I made it sound for the 25 mins of downtime. It is just that we never had a downtime this long, EVER in 8+ years of business so I hit the panic button fast. 25 mins seemed like 25 hours if you ask me :).

- EthicalSimilar 3y agoUs also, prod and staging are down and dashboard is resulting in API failure requests (500).
- midasuni 3y ago3.55pm eastern. My websites work 4.10pm eastern, still working 4.23 eastern. Yep you guessed it Half an hour means they’ve lost their five nines for this year based on this outage alone.
