<pre><code> nslookup > server a.ns.apple.com Default server: a.ns.apple.com Address: 2620:149:ae0::53#53 Default server: a.ns.apple.com Address: 17.253.200.1#53 > developer.apple.com Server: a.ns.apple.com Address: 2620:149:ae0::53#53 developer.apple.com canonical name = developer-cdn.apple.com.akadns.net. ** server can't find developer-cdn.apple.com.akadns.net: REFUSED </code></pre> Ah. So Apple's own DNS servers are redirecting developer.apple.com to something on "akadns.net", which is operated by Akamai. But Apple's own DNS servers refuse to resolve that, probably because it's not in the apple.com zone.More:<pre><code> nslookup > developer-cdn.apple.com.akadns.net Server: 127.0.0.53 Address: 127.0.0.53#53 Non-authoritative answer: developer-cdn.apple.com.akadns.net canonical name = world-gen.g.aaplimg.com. world-gen.g.aaplimg.com canonical name = apple-c.g.aaplimg.com. apple-c.g.aaplimg.com canonical name = apple-cf.g.aaplimg.com. apple-cf.g.aaplimg.com canonical name = apple-lr.g.aaplimg.com. > server a.ns.apple.com Default server: a.ns.apple.com Address: 2620:149:ae0::53#53 Default server: a.ns.apple.com Address: 17.253.200.1#53 > developer-cdn.apple.com.akadns.net Server: a.ns.apple.com Address: 2620:149:ae0::53#53 ** server can't find developer-cdn.apple.com.akadns.net: REFUSED </code></pre> It's clearly a botched DNS configuration. Not clear what the intent was. Did they really want to point "developer.apple.com", a web site, to "developer-cdn.apple.com.akadns.net", which is a DNS server? Or am I misreading that?It's generally considered bad form to have all the DNS servers for "example.com" under "example.com", by the way. If you mess up "example.com", or it goes down, getting to it to fix it can be difficult.Anyway, this looks like an attempt to outsource something to Akamai that went badly wrong.

Yep.Wife: My Apple Maps isn't working.Me: Hmm, it's not working for me either. They must be having server problems. You should use Google Maps for now.Wife: I can't download Google Maps either, the App Store doesn't seem to be working.

Here's a lot of crowd-sourced anecdata points:- "Multiple Apple services are down such as: (Will be updating this list)"<a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/apple/comments/tjg8tz/megathread_apple_outages_march_21/" rel="nofollow">https://old.reddit.com/r/apple/comments/tjg8tz/megathread_ap...</a> ("[Megathread] Apple Outages")

I chose the perfect time to restore a repaired iPhone, don’t seem to be able to fully login to iCloud, it’s hanging on the login screen…Edit: It’s also refusing to download any apps, doesn’t even show the progress circle. Just a download icon next to the app name on the Home Screen and errors out when you click it.Edit: Login and app downloads now working as of 6.00GMT

It's times like this that force us to remind ourselves how reliant we are on critical services like these. On one hand, we can celebrate (Internet snow-day!) but on the other we are forced to shop around for alternatives too.I often wondered how medieval the world would become if there was a huge sun flare ejection that breached the magnetic field and destroyed a bunch of data-centers. Think of the mess we'd be in!

I’m sure it’s happens more than I’m aware but i have to say that i can’t recall an App Store outage since i got back in the platform 3-4 years ago. Not bad!

Looks like their DNS servers are responsive, but refuse to serve records:<pre><code> $ dig -t NS developer.apple.com [...] apple-lr.g.aaplimg.com. 14400 IN NS b.gslb.aaplimg.com. apple-lr.g.aaplimg.com. 14400 IN NS a.gslb.aaplimg.com. $ dig @a.gslb.aaplimg.com developer.apple.com [...] ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: REFUSED ;; flags: qr rd; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 1 ;; WARNING: recursion requested but not available ;; WARNING: recursion requested but not available </code></pre> Most likely a configuration mistake that'll be undone as soon as they figured out how to re-deploy their DNS servers while DNS is down.Unlikely to be BGP shenanigans as some people on Twitter claim. My network has direct peerings to Apple's AS714.

Definitely. Downdetector shows a bunch of reports too (e.g. <a href="https://downdetector.com/status/apple-music/" rel="nofollow">https://downdetector.com/status/apple-music/</a>). I noticed issues with Music and News, seems like a ton of their services are down

Yes. Even developer.apple.com won't load at all for me. Who wants to take bets on DNS as the culprit?

My app update was rejected because my Upgrade screen was unable to fetch prices from their servers and instead showed an infinite spinner.

My Apple Music stopped working mid song and is being weird now. Everything seems to be working fine for my wife. Weirdly spotty.

iCloud Private Relay is shown as affected as well. This is an interesting case when it comes to failure behavior. From security perspective, you want your connection to stop working instead of falling back to insecure. Is this the case? Can anyone confirm?

They seem to have been having a bit of a lie-down, today. I can't submit TestFlight builds, but now, it is taking longer, before the server throws a nutty, so I guess the fix is on its way.

I haven’t been able to cancel subscriptions lately. I filed a refund request and complaint to Apple, maybe it didn’t get through because of this?

It's a partial outage for me. I was just able to send an iMessage, but directions on Maps are not working. I live in central Texas.

I've been struggling with a DNS downtime at Mediatemple all day. Is there a possible more global DNS issue?

I noticed a blip in iMessage earlier, but it sorted itself out before too long.

brown9-2大约 3 年前

the domain name developer.apple.com resolves through a series of CNAMEs to Apple's CDN (applimg.com), which if it was down would explain other things like iMessage also being unavailable.

It’s coinciding with an AWS outage. Probably not unrelated.
