Nominet EPP issues?

[DaveP]

Is anyone else seeing strange behaviour with EPP the last week or so? Recently EPP create commands for me have occasionally been returning 'object already exists', for domains that don't exist.

I've contacted Nominet who said they'll get back to me, but god knows when that'll be.

Just looking to see if anyone else is experiencing a similar issue?

99% of my epp commands return 'object already exists', but that's expected
I recently had to lower the ping interval to keep the epp connection alive.
They're definitely tweaking things in the background

Thanks for responding. Has there been any official word from Nominet of updates? I've not seen anything, but I agree with you that something is happening in the background.

Nothing other than this that I know of

Is anyone else having issues? EPP is now frequently failing to respond or to even connect.

 

[DaveP]

Surely there must be others out there having similar issues?

I'd really appreciate if others could come forward. I've been badgering Nominet and perhaps this will give them a kick if others do come forward.

No it's all working fine for me. The only thing was after the last maintenance having to drop the time of a 'hello' command down from every 60 mins.

What did you drop it to? I've already tried dropping down to every 30 minutes. Still no joy.

Never trust what Nominet says
When they said 60 minutes I was pinging at 30 interval.
Now 20 minutes works for me

30 is right on the bubble; reduce it further and you'll be fine.

Thanks guys, will report back if these adjustments have helped.
