In the mean time, here is an offline backup:

http://dan.bastage.net/mta/mtawiki_taxi.rar

It's a few months old, but should do the job

[Fabio(GNR)]

Ok, Thanks! Really quick responses here

wiki can't be accessed, browser always shows message "Network problem". What's wrong again with wiki?

[Vercetti1010]

Yeah, I noticed it had been down too. The wiki taxi thing didn't really work either, so my server development is sort of grinding to a halt while the wiki is down, lol. Is there any news on the wiki being down or maybe an eta for when it will come back up?

[dzek (varez)]

wiki taxi is a bit bugged but working for me.

for me too, but will be great if original wiki will work again

I think public offline copy of wiki will be good thing. Wiki taxi as a variant - not bad, but something like CHM (Microsoft Html Help File) will be better. I'll try to make this when wiki will come back to us.

i'll try to make a html copy of wiki when it goes back up, and host it from own server - because our wiki is going down way too often...

it's a good idea, I'll do the same. Today i found a good soft for downloading whole sites as HTML pages. Already tested it. All navigation hierarchy, styles, images saves like on original pages. Also this program can export off-line HTML sites to many archive types - CHM, MHT, ZIP, EXE, ... Already tested exporting to CHM.. and it looks good. All pages style is saved.

Just waiting for wiki normal access. I'll host off-line CHM copy of wiki on my MTA site too. Off-course file size will be large, but ti's not a problem. Sometimes we downloads whole CDs, DVDs.. Large size is not a problem for many people.

I think it will be great if we'll create a thread with all mirrors to off-line/on-line copies of the MTA wiki.

can you tell name of that application?

6 years ago ive used Teleporter Pro to download few sites and it was pretty good. Dunno whats the best now.

And afair - there was everyday database dumps of wiki somewhere here - if so - i can setup a wiki script with that database

[MX_Master]

Program name is "Offline Explorer Pro" (shareware)

Found some info about mta wiki backup.. here - https://forum.multitheftauto.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=28238

But links there are broken.

[dzek (varez)]

yup, i think they are on same server as wiki - so they are both down

[MX_Master]

Found some problems while downloading whole test wiki site ((: .. many connects with the shortest delays between them.. wiki site/server think - is attack it means many of these pages looks like "Can't connect to database" or something else. I think while downloading mta wiki can be same situation. May be longer delays and less connections will help..

The wiki is currently down, it will be up again when we can get a copy back running on our own server.

[SugarD-x]

You guys had a recent backup, right?

[MX_Master]

The wiki is currently down, it will be up again when we can get a copy back running on our own server.

I hope it will take no more than a week (:

p.s.: for example, exactly copy of the iv:mp wiki site in CHM format - 100 mb. I think mta wiki copy will be more than 250 mb.

back up again : https://wiki.multitheftauto.com

[MX_Master]

[Blokker_1999]
