You should check check your robots.txt, and make sure admin.php is listed in it.

Guardian2003 · Posted: Wed Aug 02, 2006 8:18 pm

Make sure it says
/admin.php
and not simply
admin.php which would be incorrect.
If you are using Raven Nuke that should already have that correction to the robots.txt file.

Misha · Posted: Wed Aug 02, 2006 8:19 pm

Hmmm... My robots.txt is as follows:

User-agent: Mediapartners-Google*
Disallow:
User-agent: *
Disallow: admin.php
Disallow: /admin/
Disallow: /images/
Disallow: /includes/
Disallow: /themes/
Disallow: /blocks/
Disallow: /modules/
Disallow: /language/

Have two guesses - either this special user-agent, or missing slash.
Thanks

no, this is not from Raven, this is from smth called blue edition.
Thanks

It's missing the slash from admin.php and that why Google crawled it and got it's bottom spanked.
Add the leading forward slash, remove the block from Sentinel and in yout htaccess file and you'll be sorted.

@s60addict , please dont address your problems in other topics.
if there is problem create a topic and any questions will be answered.

Guardian2003 · Posted: Tue Aug 29, 2006 5:05 am

Yes, one topic post per problem please. Uncluding links to other issues you have posted will not get then resolved any quicker. Some might see this as impatience and simply not even bother replying. Most people here realise that everyones posts are a top priority but when you have tens of posts every hour or so, prioritising the priorities becomes difficult.

To answer your question, it appears that the who-is service (which is a third party service and nothnig to do with Sentinel) failed to respond to Sentinels request for data and gave you an appropriate message to confirm that.
This behaviour seems normal to me.

There are a number of reasons why the who-is service failed to respond - your server IP may be in an RBL (referer abuse block list), the server may have had too many queries to handle and refused the connection etc etc.

Or it might be that the IP was not valid and therefore retrieving data was impossible.

The only thing you can do in these cases is use another provider such as samspade.org or one of the million other services but you will obviously have to type in the IP manually.
