When I try to log onto OBEX, I just get an error.

  • I and downforeveryoneorjustme.com/obex.parallax.com agree with you that obex is inaccessible. I'm sure they'll fix it soon though.
  • Thank you mikeologist. At least I know I'm not doing something stupid on my part.

    In the meantime, there is an archive from July that can be downloaded:
    I've uploaded a new "complete_obex.zip" to the same link (https://david.zemon.name/downloads/complete_obex.zip). This time, every zip is extracted. Originally I was deleting the zips after extraction but I ended up leaving the zips in place so that files which get overwritten during extraction can still be retreived (I'm looking at you adns2620).
  • Just talked to Parallax, and they are doing maintenance on the OBEX site. It should be back up today or tomorrow.

    If you have a particular need, check the link above, or I can see if I have the item on my local drive.

    Thanks for the update. Glad they're on it.
  • Is back up
  • OBEX received some needed updates to software and security.

    If you see any unusual site behaviour after this update, please let webmaster@parallax.com know.

    OBEX has security?

    Not really, still accessible without HTTPS.

  • I have tried several times over past few weeks and more often than not I get this:
    This site can’t be reached
    obex.parallax.com took too long to respond.
    

    I get this on Chrome (Windows 10) and Safari (iOS).

    Is the www.obex.parallax.com site have problems lately?
  • Searches do seem to take a while or abort. I will advise Parallax.
  • Didn't the firm move some portions to AWS? Its possible thanks to the arcane rules for setting up a name registration entity page, the mechanism for making the transfer didn't work.....

    You got it!


    When they moved it, they didn't include a redirect for

    http://www.obex.parallax.com/


    You must use

  • Well, it seems to be working today.
