Signature Generator Issues
For some reason the machine our signature generator is running on is having issues connecting to the wowarmory.com site to get character data. When I saw the problem earlier today it looked like the Armory was returning bogus data, which happens quite frequently, and I expected it to clear out after the cache time on the signatures.
It now appears that something is going on on our end of things, but we haven't changed anything in 4 or 5 days so at this time I am unsure what is causing it. I have our network guys looking into the issue and they should have some resolution shortly.
UPDATE: 11:28 PM 10/09/2007
Our network engineers have confirmed that for some reason connections from the signature generator web server to the armory site are not going through. The exact reason is unknown at this time. We should have some resolution by tomorrow, so hang tight and we'll get rid of those nasty broken image icons as soon as we can.
UPDATE 9:00 AM 10/10/2007
We've increased the file based cache length so that signatures that have already been created will still show. However, we are still researching the underlying issues.
