Blog*Spot DNS Related Outage In Indonesia

Various blogger customers in or near Indonesia are reporting inability to access Blogger blogs. Preliminary analysis appears that the problem is seen only with Blog*Spot blog addresses - custom domain URLs appear to be accessed with no problem, with the corresponding BlogSpot URL being inaccessible.

We have a Problem Rollup question in Blogger Help Forum, where the epidemiology of the problem is being explored.

If you are experiencing this problem, please state your country and city, and name of ISP.

Next, please help verify nature of your outage. Here are 5 replicas of the same article. Please click on each link, one after the other, and observe which links provide content to read. Please be specific - which ones can you, and which can't you, read?

Really thanks for your information, I'm a blogger from indonesia and your information is very helpful. Personally, I usually open my blog account via blogger, the reason is because I have to re-log in for my adsense account if i use blog*spot, but with blogger, goggle will only shown a click-able words: "take me to my account" instead. but so far, I don't know the difference between blogger and blog*spot.

Blogger forbids gateway blogs, and similar blog to blog redirections . When you rename a post, you can setup a custom redirect - and automatically redirect your readers to the post, under its new URL. You should take advantage of this option, if you change a post URL.
