Sorry for the outage this morning. We are working to make everything work as well as we can, but want to move to a different server. So the odd outage is likely to occur before we finally complete this move. The only way to do this work safely is to take the forum offline. Sometimes we have to do this without warning.
Sorry again. Normal service will be resumed, we will keep you in touch with progress.
Forum & Site outage
I'm getting a "Certificate Error" on the Bet Angel site today.

Yet you still used it to tell us how unsafe it is. Calm down, the world's not ending.Wolf1877 wrote: ↑Mon Jul 06, 2020 8:57 amI'm getting a "Certificate Error" on the Bet Angel site today.

I'm no expert in internet security but I think that's only a real concern if one, you're visiting a site you're not familiar with and two, you're about to make a purchase or send private information.Wolf1877 wrote: ↑Mon Jul 06, 2020 8:57 amI'm getting a "Certificate Error" on the Bet Angel site today.

I didnt say it was unsafe. I am familiar with the BetAngel site so my assumption was that the SSL certificate had expired so my post was more of a message to the Bet Angel crew to investigate/resolve because anyone visiting the Bet Angel site for the first time would likely not stick around. SSL Certificates have to be renewed every year and some pretty large sites have been known to let them inadvertently expire.jamesg46 wrote: ↑Mon Jul 06, 2020 9:14 amYet you still used it to tell us how unsafe it is.

It didnt say certificate expiry as such - just certificate error. I first noticed in the BA embedded browser then I tried Firefox, Edge and Chrome browsers - variations of the same message in all 3 browsers. Issue went away about 10 minutes after I posted about the issue so I assumed your team had done something. I'll do a full AV scan of my machine in case I have a local issue.
Note added : I've scanned my PC and no issues detected. Will have to put it down as a temporary glitch then I guess. I'll notify support directly if it recurs.
