Unable to Access CESM Documentation on www2 Subdomain

[Yinjie Wang]

Dear CESM Support Team,

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to report an issue accessing some important documentation on your website. Specifically, I have been unable to open the following links:

1. SOM Documentation:https://www2.cesm.ucar.edu/models/cesm1.2/data8/doc/SOM.pdf
2. Paleo Climate FAQ:https://www2.cesm.ucar.edu/models/paleo/faq/

These resources are critical for my research on slab ocean and paleoclimate modeling. However, the www2 subdomain appears to be unavailable. I’ve tried troubleshooting steps such as clearing my browser cache, using different browsers, and checking my network connection, but the issue persists.

Could you kindly:

• Confirm whether these links are still active or if they have been relocated?
• Provide alternative access to the files if possible?

Thank you for your time and assistance. I greatly appreciate the work you do to support the CESM community.

Best regards,
Yinjie Wang

Sorry, I realized I can access it after switching to a different network environment. This was my issue—no need to reply！

Could you explain what you mean by a different network environment?

I am having the same issue.

I am having the same issue.

I couldn't open it using the public network at the public library in my city, but it worked when I returned home and used my private network. The specific reason is unclear.

Hi, I am having the same issue. I cannot access any cesm.ucar.edu documents, and any sites related to https://www2.cesm.ucar.edu can't be reached. I found this issue since yesterday. I tried using different Wi-Fi, my university Wi-Fi, private Wi-Fi/network(home), public(university network), and even my university VPN, to check if I could access these sites. None of them worked.

The www2.cesm.ucar.edu and docs.cesm.ucar.edu websites are currently down for maintenance and we are working on bringing them back online.
