railsinstaller.org redirects to non-loading url

[ras1]

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.

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.

Thanks. It’s supposed to redirect but I’ll have to look into why it’s not. Evan

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.

@emachnic
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).

[jordancrawford]

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

[MSCAU]

@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.
