AnkiWeb, iOS, and Mac all fail to connect to Anki's servers

As of a few minutes ago, when I open anki on desktop or ios, it fails to sync with the following error:error sending request for url (): error trying to connect: tcp connect error: Connection refused (os error 61)<U+2069>

When I try to visit https://ankiweb.net/decks , it fails with 504 Gateway Time-out

Nothing has changed on my end. Are the servers down?

I am experiencing this as well on desktop, Android, and the website.

Hello anking is having the same issue again :neutral_face:

me too

So Iā€™ve chosen not the perfect time to join :smiley:

I was also already deleting everything and changing networks.

Hello,

This morning I had full functionality of one of my Anki profiles as I reviewed the description I wrote for a deck I shared. When writing an email to share the link to the shared deckā€™s webpage, the webpage didnā€™t load and gave me this error:


I thought my computer could be the issue, but it also doesnā€™t load in Safari on my iPhone, nor my other laptop.

When trying to view the deck in AnkiWeb I got this error:

When opening the Anki app on my computer, I can see, browse, and edit the deck, but when I tried to sync it I got: (os error 10061) [I didnā€™t take a screen shot]. I first tried to see if the Anki app was malfunctioning on my computer so I checked if I could sync my cards on my phone ā€” which was successful, but my phone is connected to my other account. I switched profiles on my computer and I could still sync cards from that account. I switched back and the problem remained. I then switched accounts on my phone and got an error like the computer. I then looked up (os error 10061) and updated my Anki and checked and temporarily turned off my default Microsoft Defender firewall when trying to sync. But it didnā€™t help. Now Iā€™m worried something is wrong with this account. I admit Iā€™m not the most knowledgeable about fixing issues like these, but as a test, I changed the password on the malfunctioning account. I relogged in on my computer, but now I get (os error 10060) when trying to sync.


I looked up this error, but I donā€™t see how it could be a internet connection issue if the other account still syncs.

I updated my Anki to QT6 (Iā€™m not sure if I already had that version, but I nonetheless ran another Anki installation). But still no fix.

Does anyone have an idea of what is happening and how to help me?

One of AnkiWebā€™s servers suddenly went offline, and wonā€™t restart. I have reported the issue to the data center, and Iā€™m waiting for them to investigate.

Edit: still waiting.

Understood, thank you for the reply.

Iā€™m having the same issue. Iā€™ve tried turning off my firewalls, using a VPN, and a phone hotspot with no success. Iā€™ve had the same error message.


please lmk if thereā€™s anything else that I should try or if I should just hang tight and wait for this to be fixed on AnkiWebā€™s end

anyone else?

yep same

The motherboard has been replaced, and things should be operational again.

I am also having the same problem. I tried using my phoneā€™s hot spot, uninstalling and reinstalling anki app on my laptop and that did not work.

Today I also created a second profile and when I went to AnkiWeb it surprisingly did not have any issues or error messages when loading the second profile. I am able to access this second profile and it seems like it makes some progress synching but much slower than normal. But there was always a connection error for the first profile.

It is now working for me.

Everythingā€™s working. Many thanks to the Anki team.

Personally, I still have the problem. https://ankiweb.net/ does not open, Anki on PC and AnkiDroid do not sync.
