eRA Alert: Update on eRA Commons and eSubmisson eXchange

May 28, 2009

eRA staff is working diligently to resolve residual issues with eRA Commons and eSubmission eXchange related to our recent infrastructure upgrade. The systems remain unavailable at this time. We will provide you with an update as soon as possible this afternoon.

Please note: Any electronic applications submitted to Grants.gov that are in a Validated state will be held in the Grants.gov system until eRA Commons is available for use. Please do not resubmit your application to Grants.gov.

We are sorry for the disruption. Thank you for your continued patience. We are working as quickly as possible and hope to have a resolution very soon.

....and g.g will be down this weekend!!!!

 

Don’t you love this stuff?

 

 

 

I am also unable to connect. I have also not been able to find any announcement anywhere of when they expect to be back online.

 

This fiscal year sounds rather ambitious, though.

 

 

 

I can’t get in either.  I understand, though, that they are planning to get it up and running this fiscal year.

I assume that the Commons is still “offline” and that I am not the only one unable to connect to their website, let alone login??
