For the past two weeks I have been unable to connect to his website, for example https://regex.info/blog/

The urgency here is that all his plug-ins require a new license to work under LrC 11, or else they revert to trial mode with reduced functionality.

Interesting ... it seems that, as Jeffrey states, "My HTTP and HTTPS trees have been separate for decades; a browser feature that automatically assumes that all HTTP servers have an identical HTTPS server is making some very big, and in this case, wrong, assumptions."

If your web browser is set, as mine was, to "HTTPS-Only Mode" then you simply won't be able to access Jeffrey's site. I had to go into "Manage Exceptions..." and explicitly turn off HTTPS-Only mode for regex.info to gain access.

So why did I just get a 404-Not Found when I tried Paul's link?
I just tried to ping regex.info and ping could not find that site. It had no problems finding comcast.net

I know Paul is located in the UK.

@Zenon, where are you located? I may need to call my ISP (Comcast) and ask them about this issue.

I used Paul's link, and it worked fine. I'm in Eastern Canada. Ping worked, too.

Try a ping to 35.165.206.106 directly and see if that works from your machine.
If so, then maybe some kind of DNS lookup problem.

Whaddya know. That direct IP address worked. Thanks a bunch!;)

But, but, but, when I entered that IP address into a browser bar, I got this message back. Now I'm confused.

As a last resort, I emailed Jeffrey Friedl, and he suggested that the browser might be set to do only SHTPPS. In fact, I had Firefox configured to do exactly that. Once I changed that browser setting, I had no problem reaching his site.

Ooops .:humble:
