Title: Anyone else having problems with viewing images on irishgenealogy.ie civil BMD's
Post by: bikermickau on Friday 07 April 17 04:58 BST (UK)
I'm currently getting a "Not Found" message when I click any civil image links on civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie site.

I have reported a problem with attempting to view one image to that site.

I think their server is down. See also the separate thread I started about National Archives data also down...

If you look at the home page there is a warning

www.irishgenealogy.ie is aware in recent days of a phishing e-mail in circulation purporting to come from this website. The e-mails in question state " Subscription For Research Service (Payment confirmed) ".

This is what's known as a phishing e-mail and should be blocked/deleted if you receive it. Please do not respond to this e-mail or open any links attached. www.irishgenealogy.ie is not a subscription website and users do not have to register to use the website.


They have obviously been attacked in some way or if not, trying to prevent this

That phishing warning has been there since at least the 28th March.

Latest news on Irish Genealogy News is they have identified the problem and are working on it, that was at 11.35.

Around lunchtime I was able to search on both sites but got error messages trying to view images. Hopefully will be fixed soon.

Thanks all,

I see they now have a post on the home page now regarding the problem;

Quote "Problem with display of images on the Civil and Church records pages of the Website
We are currently experiencing a problem with regard to the display of images of Civil and Church Registrations.
We hope to have this problem resolved soon and we thank all those who have e-mailed regarding this issue." Unquote

OSI has been offline over the weekend due to planned maintenance (it's due back today) rather than a serious technical glitch.
