In Google Chrome on Windows 10, if I navigate to railsinstaller.org, it will timeout on loading 'railsinstaller.org:81/en'.

If I manually enter the url 'railsinstaller.org:80/en in Google Chrome, it will instantly resolve to the homepage.

railsbridge/docs#637

I confirmed that both http://railsinstaller.org and http://www.railsinstaller.org fail to load. Appending /en works but that is not acceptable for existing links. At least it should do a 301 Moved Permanently redirect.

Hello guys

The same error on Fedora with Chromium and localization pt-br because I am in Brazil and redirect to http://railsinstaller.org:81/pt-BR

I'm new here then I fork the code to analyze and try help.

If you wait until the timeout, notice it is on port 81

If you type http://railsinstaller.org:80
It redirected correctly for myself.

With port 80, both work.
http://railsinstaller.org:80
http://railsinstaller.org:80/pt-BR

@crigor can you check this out as I don't think I even have access to the EY environment anymore.

When will this be fixed? The Rails getting started guide points to this domain. See rails/rails#33496

Hi! I can't seem to reproduce this locally (had to bundle update in order to get a local dev environment working on a modern macOS though) - I figured it could have been a middleman thing.

I suspect this is an NGINX issue (the server reveals it's NGINX from the error page).

To fix railsbridge/docs#640 I've just redirected to http://railsinstaller.org/en directly for now so similar could be done in the Rails guide.

Thanks, @jordancrawfordnz , but now the Windows link on https://guides.rubyonrails.org/getting_started.html

links to

http://railsinstaller.org:81/en

which times out.

@MSCAU, can you check again, I was able to get a valid response using google chrome with my macintosh computer; guides.rubyonrails.org/getting_started.html

@MichaelDimmitt - no, it's still the same. I have tried Chrome on Windows 10, Edge on Windows 10, and Safari on iPhone 6. For the phone I turned off wifi to see whether 4G made any difference. It doesn't.

the url http://railsinstaller.org/ has not been working for some time.
(see railsinstaller/website#59)
linking to https://railsinstaller.org/en seems appropriate, this is the english version of the curriculum after all
