In progress - Scheduled maintenance is currently in progress. We will provide updates as necessary.

Scheduled - We will be updating some of our servers between midnight and 6am from Dec 26th to Jan 2nd.
If you are trying to access a Redeemer application at that time and it is not available, please wait approximately 20-30 minutes and then try again.

Update - We are continuing to work on a fix for this issue.
We just received a report that the newest version of Edge will also give this error now. Please continue to follow the workarounds from previous posts until this issue is resolved.

Update -
We are still looking into the issue but have discovered two more temporary solutions.
This issue appears to be closely tied to a recent Chrome update so the first solution is to use a browser other than Chrome.
If you wish to continue using Chrome, then the second solution is to reload the page, right click on the error message (the TurnItIn box), and select "Reload frame". See the PDF instructions on this App post for help (https://app.redeemer.ca/groups/information-technology/feed/15537).

Identified - We have received several reports and have replicated an issue where people are getting the below error message instead of the TurnItIn application. At this time, this is the only system affected on Discovery and not everyone is affected.
Error message: "The connection is blocked because it was initiated by a public page to connect to devices or servers on your private network. Reload this page to allow the connection."
Temporary solution: We have only seen this error message on Redeemer and FacStaff Wi-Fi networks. We were able to successfully load TurnItIn while connected to a home network and cellular hotspot. If you need to upload or mark an assignment, please try using a non-Redeemer Wi-Fi network for the time being.
We will continue to send updates as they become available and are working to resolve this outage as soon as possible!
