HELP- Version error....

I just signed into my ACP and was told to update, (re check version?) and was told "Failed to obtain latest version information."

How can this be resolved?

I also got this message after clicking the 'System' tab

"php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known"

:cry: :cry:

I've also tried visiting the phpbb website and apparently it doesn't exist..

This is due to phpbb currently down ( don´t know why...)

don't know what to tell you guys, i am looking through this right now! http://www.phpbb.com/kb/ so it's probably DNS or server related, cause i've been on it all morning!

It all appears to be ok now, now I'm getting this message "Your phpBB installation is up to date. There are no updates available at this time."

However, the link cisco posted still doesn't work??

like i said previously, you either have to purge your browser cache, your ISP DNS configuration, or it's a phpbb.com server problem, i have been on all day yesterday and today downloading and updating my mods!
