Title: Server error on https://business.avast.com
Post by: REDACTED on October 08, 2015, 02:52:25 PM
We are getting an error when trying to admin our avast for business system at https://business.avast.com and all machines on the network are erroring that "The Online content is unavailable"
Anyone else experiencing it?

Yep, same thing here.

Yes...same for me here. All clients are getting that message, and the management site is goofy. Some links work, others do not.

Yup. And no one way to silent uninstall that I can find. Cloud console is not functioning to uninstall it from there either.

Yes, on all the systems I have looked at. Also the Cloud console is now saying server error.

I also had time outs on this forum for a while but seems OK now.

Looks like AVAST are having system / network problems.

We are now sometimes able to access the management site, maybe they have multiple servers and one is down and the load balancer hasnt realized!

This screenshot i just took of the Business login is pretty.... interesting.

Logging in just throws random errors, etc.

Also, all of my computers are having the Avast Business window pop up, and steal focus from all other running apps, just to say it cant connect.
Close the window, and a few minutes later BAM! it's back, and it's taken focus away from the program i am using.
Having the window appear, and take focus from anything the user is currently doing, while working, because of a server issue, is quite frankly, terrible. I hope this behaviour gets changed in future updates.

You have my vote for this!

Further showing an RJ-45 connector and a wall socket is not also well thought out. We have most laptops on wireless which is a separate network from our wired connection. Plugging changes the default connection to change (due to gigabit speed) which makes resources appear unavailable.

What a way to start the day :-(

About 10 minutes ago Avast posted an update on the server issue on Google+

https://plus.google.com/+avast/posts/Bm4YRBCxH39 (https://plus.google.com/+avast/posts/Bm4YRBCxH39)

They said they have just fixed the repeatedly-opening Avast window, and are continuing to work on the Login issue.

Is the business.avast.com site allowing you to log in now?

Yeah, the business site is working now.

However, i can only use it for about 15 or so seconds, then I receive the message:
