Can't access trivia contest
I'm getting "502 Bad Gateway" when I click the contest link on the Kobo homepage.
Has anyone managed to access the contest today? And is there anyway to contact CS without having to provide lots of irrelevant details about my e-reader? |

Just tried and I'm getting the same thing here in Canada, so it seems to be a Kobo issue rather than an internet issue. Sorry, no words of wisdom on customer service.

I'd say Kobo is having an issue and not much to do but wait for them to fix it. Regards, David Last edited by DNSB; 02-22-2014 at 11:43 AM. |

I know they are working on infrastructure stuff right now. Maybe this is an unintended consequence or a really lousy step along the way.

Thanks for the responses, at least I know it's not just me.

On a better note, I did manage to get through to the contest page just now. On a lesser note, after I answered the trivia question, Nightly crashed when the "you've won a 30% off coupon" popped up. OTOH, the last two updates to Nightly x64 have crashed it. Regards, David |

Firefox Nightly builds. They fill that empty spot left when running beta software just seemed so passé. I grabbed the x64 flavour from ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.or.../latest-trunk/. Nightly is a bit of a misnomer -- I've gotten multiple updates in a single day on several occasions. It's an way to keep up with the direction that Firefox is moving in and allows me to test various corporate web applications for potential future issues.
See http://nightly.mozilla.org/ for a bit more information. Regards, David Last edited by DNSB; 02-23-2014 at 01:50 AM. |
