For the last three days I've been getting a DNS error when I try to access gwguru by its name, ie http://www.guildwarsguru.com

I can only access the site by using its IP number ( 38.99.233.252 ).

Ie this works:
http://38.99.233.252/forum/
but this doesnt:
http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/

I got the IP from a US search engine, but european DNS servers don't seem to have got the memo.

I'll quote Inde a few threads down on this as I'm not tech-savvy in the area, but:

Ahh I was suspecting the same thing, I'm accessing the site by IP as well.

Yay! A few minutes ago access through DNS started working again!

The IP and the text url work for me, but I'm still having database error problems.

looks like a lot more people are able to connect now, seems dns updated in lots of places. there seems to be some mysql problems and apache settings, its all needs to be tweaked to take on the load thats all, we had no way to test this many users on the new server so we work it as we go.
