Re: Grants.gov DOWN UNTIL WED, 2/10? Laura Kubec 08 Feb 2010 16:49 EST

I have a proposal that I tried to submit on Friday and it froze on my
screen.  It said "Processing, please don't close the window until you
receive a confirmation".  Never received a confirmation.
Before 5pm I wrote to Grants.gov and also e-Commons to communicate the
problem. I believe it was a system issue due to heavy volume. Received a
service request tracking number.  Today both Grants.gov and NIH are
closed.
I still need to get this submitted.  Any suggestions?

Laura

This is indeed a surprise -
I knew there was some scheduled maintenance going on, but not that
it would be down until Wednesday... (& next Monday is a holiday)

Website says: "Grants.gov is currently unavailable due to scheduled
system maintenance that will improve your Grants.gov experience.

The system will be back on-line by February 10 at 12:01 EST.
