SC,
is there any way that you can make a non-https page available so users of DurcTools can retrieve any notes they had made during the time before the switch to https?

IndexedDB needs the protocol, url and browser be the same to access any information stored. If a http page with a url that begins with elgea.illyriad.co.uk can be made available I've got a script they can use to export the data to a file which they can then import into the new https version.

It would not need to be available forever, just long enough to allow people a chance to export their notes.

Tens

it seems that anything that is elgea.illyriad.co.uk/* i am unable to access though my  web server.  I am using wget and SHH to test if i can access  or not.

This is a strange one.

Illy's pages (including the API key calls) have been redirecting to https for nearly 2 weeks now; and we certainly haven't changed anything in the last 24-48hrs.

Can you command-line test (from the webserver) an https (port 443) GET of any old page (not necessarily an API page) on elgea and see what comes back?  And can you then try a standard HTTP (port 80) get of the same page?

Would be useful to know.  My suspicion is, I'm afraid to say, that this is nothing to do with us; and I think you need to have a convo with your hosting provider, who may have seen a large, sudden, recent spike in traffic inbound and outbound from *.illyriad.co.uk (due to your tournie) and have chosen to block the domain.

Do let us know.

Thanks for the answer, TC.

We tried changing the URL to https - but no luck so far.
The problem first occured today morning at around 4am server time.
Our database update was still working at 04:03:44am and the next one around 5 minutes later didn't work anymore.

Right now I'm looking into disabling SSL verifies but so far no luck.

Edit:
Our current error:

Error GETing https://elgea.illyriad.co.uk/external/combatreportsapi/SOMEONES_API_KEY_HERE?since=2016-06-01T04:03:44: Can't connect to elgea.illyriad.co.uk:443 (Connection timed out)

Since I can run that query just fine on my PC I guess that port 443 might be blocked by the firewall.

Its been changed since the announcement; it may be the redirect - if he changes the url to be https rather than http it should work.

It would be very strange for a webhost to block https

Was there another change today morning regarding the Combat report API and HTTPS?

When you access a combat report or API key it now automatically switches to HTTPS.

If yes - would it be possible to revoke that change until Kodabears tournament has ended? It seems that his webhoster is blocking https connections and therefore only http is allowed.

I've found a solution to the problem with DurcTools not running but there is one outstanding issue that I can't solve. The tools use a mix of localStorage and IndexedDB to store information for players on their own machines. Access to the information stored by both these technologies is only available when the browser that created the data is on the site that it was on when it created it. The change in the URL from http to https means that any data previously stored is no longer available. While this is not a major problem for the majority of the data it is for the  notes tool. Some players have created quite a large collection of notes that they will no longer be able to access. I've contacted GM Rikoo to see if we can come up with a method of being able to allow users to export the data and then import it into the new secure site. In the meantime I'll carry on getting the DurcTools site transfered to a secure server and back up and running.
