Hi, keep getting this when trying to activate GP Pro.
"403 Forbidden. Your server is not able to communicate with generatepress.com in order to activate your license key"
https://e-pub.graffiticrow.com/ - which is a subdomain of https://www.graffiticrow.com/
IP: 155.133.132.14
Host: Gandi
Created 17/01/22
I have read through the forum posts and dome the following;
Cleared caches both locally and server side
Restarted hosted instance
Updated PHP version to 8
Never had this issue before, had this yesterday and waited 24 hours for the domain to propagate but its still the same today.
Thanks, Anthony
Hi there,
can you ask the host to do a network trace ? And in the meantime we'll check out the IP address.
Hi David,
Just got this from Gandi. If you cannot find an issue your end I will delete the subdomain and remake and try again. Just would rather not go through the setup again!
Thanks, Anthony
Just to add, I'm having similar issues with GenerateBlocks.
Regards, Anthony
Hi there,
I just spoke with our hosting and it looks like the IP was being blocked. Everything should be good to go, including GenerateBlocks.
Let me know :)
Thanks, issue still present as of 8:30am UK time but I appreciate this may take a little while to work through the system.
Will try again later.
Regards, Anthony
Still blocked folks. Please let me in 🥺
Regards, Anthony
Hi,
just tried again this morning and this issue currently still persisting.
Regards, Anthony
Ok, both GP and GB are now working as normal
Thanks, Anthony
Glad to hear that its finally working.
i am encountering this issue as well. 173.236.171.198
Please respond i need to get this update today.
Hi Matt
You may be better opening a new support topic.
My IP address was blocked. If the same has happened to you and the issue persists after you are unblocked be sure to clear server, site and browser caches. This was something I had to do to restore the connection.
Good luck, hope things are sorted for you soon. Regards Anthony
