Buenos Aires user can't open AK database sites (www.akdatabase.org neither akdatabase.com)

I've noted I can't open any of the mentioned sites, I get an error from my browser, from my computer or my cell phone (cell phone browser says ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE )

I'm not sure if the sites are up and running, but I can't reach them from my location.

If the site is working, it could be some security settings at the server side. Actually, from my location, I can't open audiokarma.org using any IPV4 device, only IPV6 addresses are allowed to reach the site from here. Probably at akdatabase something similar is happening.

FWIW login is only for administration purposes. You can navigate all the files without logging in, as no users here have admin privileges.

Translation: "this page is not working ".

This is what my cell phone sees when clicking on the link. Also at .org. The same happens at my laptop. IPV6 is enabled.

Works fine here on my desktop.
You are outside the US in Buenos Aires; perhaps its some security problem with your Internet Service Provider?
 
@elnaldo
Are your phone and laptop accessing the site through the same local network connection ... both on same WiFi, laptop tethered to phone, etc ? Is the AK database the only site where you've had this error?

I can open this AK forum only enabling IPV6. From the same devices, same connection, same ISP, same time, I can't open AKdatabase.com or .org

That's the only site (of those that I use) returning that error.

I guess my ISP or even my Country could be blocked from the server side. But that's only a guess.

Seems pretty consistent if all of your computer/pad/phones can't get to that site.
I presume your ISP thinks akdatabase.com is a spam site or has that server IP address blacklisted.
I know a few other sites that got caught up with a similar problem.
That's a shame - its nothing we can fix from this end.

I gather the main AK site (audiokarma.org) works fine for you?
 
The AK main and akdatabase servers are separate, with AK main (only) now via Cloudflare.

@elnaldo
I don't know where IPv6-only is being imposed on you, but the akdatabase server has no IPv6 address in its DNS record.

@hjames @Tinkerbelle
Since presumably the akdatabase server does have an IPv6 address, possibly it just needs to get added to the DNS record by whichever AK admin can do that.

The main site works, as noted, only using IPV6 . The same happens to other people in my country. Enabling IPV6 allow us to open audiokarma.org , but IPV4 devices can't . My own phone, when using 4G connection (not wifi), or using some wifi routers out of my home, can't open the site. It needs an IPV6 address to work.

I've tried AKdatabase with IPV4, and the error is different, but it doesn't work either.

Sounds like a national issue if none of your IPV4 devices work on the standard AK site. Perhaps that how IP and routing is configured with your Internet provider

I'm aware of some sites blocking IP ranges to stop AI bots. But that's just a guess. I could try to open random web sites to check wich ones are blocking my access, (probably many), but that would be a waste of time. My main question was to know if the database was working or if my IP was not allowed to reach it, which seems the case here.
