UPDATE 25/01/11: After a weekend of work Last.fm is now back up to full capacity. If you’re continuing to experience problems then leave a comment below and let us know. Thank you for your patience.

—————————————————————————————————

As many of you will be aware, Last.fm has been experiencing an extended period of downtime in all user-facing services. A hardware failure has led to one of the most serious system outages we have experienced for a long time, and we are very sorry about the inconvenience caused to our listeners. At this moment everything should be on its way back to normal, but it could take some time for all services to return to a fully stable state.

We want to apologise for this outage, and explain the problems that have led to the difficulties you may be experiencing now.

Yesterday afternoon a fault in a blade chassis in one of our datacentres caused it to break, taking the power supply for its rack with it.

On site teams were unable resolve the fault with this chassis, but were able to restore power to the rest of the rack. Unfortunately, this chassis contained several critical components of the top-level load balancing systems we use to evenly distribute traffic across all of our datacentres.

Load balancing has been redistributed among the remaining centres. As these are running under a higher than usual load intermittent service outages may have resulted, leading to problems across all parts of Last.fm. As a result you might be experiencing difficulty with radio, the website or with your scrobbles.

Because some of our top level DNS services were impacted by this outage it has taken longer than usual for fresh DNS information to propagate. Many of you may have been presented with incorrect DNS information due to caching, despite the workarounds we have been putting in place. Eventually correct information will propagate in its place.

Last.fm’s Operations team has been working since it was first reported to provide listeners with short-term workarounds while the affected hardware is replaced or repaired. Our first priority has been to ensure that user-data is preserved wherever possible.

We’re doing everything we can to ensure that the site is operating for as many people as possible while the hardware is restored.

Some of you are worried about the status of your scrobbles; all scrobbles that are making it through are safe, and client caching should ensure that any that aren’t are queued and will be submitted correctly once the service is fully restored. These will appear as normal once the faults have been repaired.

We’d also like to apologise for not communicating more about the problem – as I’m sure you can appreciate our priority has been getting the issues fixed.

In the meantime we will be updating status.last.fm and the twitter account @lastfm as soon as we have more information.

    I experienced slow-to-no download of the “free download” songs. Is this related? I’m a subscriber (FinerGrind).

    It sucked as I use Last.fm while I’m working, but the site is so awesome and made even more awesome by being free, I think its safe to assume that loyal users of the site won’t be running to crappy alternatives because of the hardware failure. Kudos to your team for getting the issue resolved so quickly :)

    We all love you guys, take your time and get it done, just don’t rush for a quick solution that will break again after a short while… I hate it when people do that :(
    To all you idiots moaning, just shut up and let them get on with it!

    Thanks for the note. Losing an entire chassis is unfortunate. Hopefully your blades are salvageable. Glad to hear that the (or rather, my) data is safe.

    I am still getting Error 101 (net::ERR_CONNECTION_RESET) while trying to access last.fm from my computer. Is this also related to problems you have with your hardware?

    Maybe something should be shown on the homepage once you have a better estimate of the downtime so users don’t have to hunt down whether there is a problem or not. Downtime is no problem at all, but wondering what the $$$$ is going on is a problem. Do you guys have a PR department or what? Also, love the service, I’m a daily user, hope it gets back up soon so I don’t have to listen to the ringing in my ears longer than necessary. Thanks!

    Everything works fine, only the website does not load. To check whether your scrobbles are being submitted, you can check the mobile version of las.fm —> m.last.fm

    Grtz!

    21 January, 18:39

    No worries! Problems is problems; Last is one of the biggest contributions to music in recent years…so you get a free pass ;)

    21 January, 18:56

    Ah, the joy of fault-tolerant computing and disaster recovery. Suffice to say that I had nothing but a 64MB portable MP3 player to keep me company when I was working in “the cage” at my datacenters during the internet boom. And nothing but a radio with crappy reception ten years before that in the computer lab at the university.

    There are ~525,948 minutes in a year. 24 hours = 1440 minutes. If nothing else goes wrong this year, last.fm will have achieved a ~99.73% uptime. That should be good enough for everyone except the banks, nuclear plants, and the space shuttle.

    Marc – 21 January, 18:56

    21 January, 19:00

    We could wait with patience for a longer time. Scrobblers shd be working fine at preparing its queue and submitting later.

    Oh! and by the way, could you put the variable “Canada” set to “true” for the iphone/ipod app while you are at it?

    thanks ! ;)

    Well, I’m still a little upset over the obvious website problems, but at least scrobbles are not being lost. Thanks you guys for your continuous hard work and dedication in making Last.fm the best music site on the web :)) “Everyday is a good day, when there’s Lasr.Fm”

    Still does not work for me (19:44 GMT Fri)…

    I can see home page but login page does not load :-(

    I am not as much surrprised, because there is long time no advance in web interface, terrific Flash, played track list freezed for my acount month ago. It seem that you underestimated infrastructure importance….

    I just payed few days ago $3×3 for 3 monts subscription (I use you service over 3 years). Probably it was Last.Time dear Last.fm!!!

    Your disapointed customer ….

    It seems that staff are mentioning cached data, but are not mentioning the fact, several of us have no data to cache or retrieve, as nothing loads:

    Just so staff can see how its going on our user end, it’s getting much worse and nothing I do gets the Client to load anymore than this below:
    linktext

    Am just hoping, this helps troubleshoot the issues.

    Short email notification to all users (at least paid members) and/or a brief note on a homepage could help a LOT keeping users informed. Sorry to know about your problems.

    22 January, 08:16

    you know, since Imeem went by the “wayside”, you at LFM have the best base for artists I have come across.

    So, a bit of a blip in the system it appears…glad to know it’s not my problem other than I miss my tunes.

    Personally, I don’t care about “scrobbles” lost? Nor do I care about neighbors access…blah, blah. It’s all about the music I personally wish to hear.

    Sincerely hope you can manage this soon ….I do miss being able to hear the tunes I know, and love.

    Caitlin & many of you staffers deserve a medal ~ I will hang it to see what comes,
    for a while yet.

    Love it when it works, but for now I will continue only monthly ~ this new transition has made me a bit skeptical from the onset, but I believe you have the most promising site if you can work this out?

    I do miss my tunes here …..

    If some people can’t live without last.fm for a few days, they really need to sort out their life. : /
    Let the guys do their work and don’t flood their inbox with messages of disappointment that will take up their time.
    You are doing a great job guys! I look forward to the site being up and fantastic as ever, whenever possible.

    Just to let staff know – All pages and the Scrobbler Client are loading lightning fast! MUCH faster than they did for the past two years. I used to count the load time down(1001,1002,1003, etc.). It used to take anywhere from 6 to 12 seconds to fully load forums, inbox, profile page and even the Client, but now, it is taking 2 and 3 seconds! WOW, what did you guys do?! =)

    YAY in the USA!

    I for one understand the impact of this failure and appreciate the amount of work that has and is still going into resolving the situation.

    I am also very appreciative of the explanations given and of the system updates. It really does help to alleviate the frustration.

    Everything is fine for me at present.

    Now, I ask myself… where do I go to beg for PS3 support to elevate Last.fm from OK to just about perfect?

    Everybody with the scrobbling problems. I think you need to go into your last.fm program and under the help button select diagnostics. Then under your scrobbling options hit refresh. This seemed to fix all my scrobbling problems and sent everything that was cached into my account.

    Sorry, I typed refresh in the above message but I meant reconnect. Hit the reconnect button under diagnostics under help. I think this will fix everyone’s scrobbling problems.

    Have no idea if this is connected but on some pages the Facebook ‘Like’ button is not functioning properly. If I press it to like a song(like here – http://bit.ly/clb1Sc, for example) it will register the ‘like’ for a few seconds before reverting to it’s normal button appearance, without registering the ‘Like’.

    Hi, thanks for working so hard to get things fixed and for giving progress reports. However, scrobbling isn’t working when I am listening to Last.fm via mysqueezebox.com. It works fine when I am listening to Last.fm via my pc, or my own music via my Squeezebox player, or via WMP on the pc.

    I dont always want to have to switch on my pc to listen to Last.fm via my squeezebox…please can you help.

    Thanks

    Scrobbling is fine, but for some reason any shout that’s more than a few sentences refuses to post! For me this is quite a vital lifeline so if this could be fixed it’d be great. Short shouts all post fine but, um, I’m a person of many words! xD

    I use Amarok to play & scroble.
    Even tho my “listening now” track appears and is relatively accurate, and I can “love” the playing track (it will appear on the “loved tracks” page), my “Recently Listened Tracks” list on my profile page hasn’t updated since 21-Jan-2011 (around the time of the site outtage). Also my “tracks” list hasn’t updated either since that date: <http://www.last.fm/user/equalsJeffH/tracks/>. Typically the list updates as I play them. Also my # of total tracks played hasn’t budged since 21-Jan.

    thanks.

    Scrobbling seems to work fine here, but I’m having real trouble accessing the website itself. I manage to actually open a band/artist page every once in a blue moon, but only one page before it stops completely. I’ve had the same problem in two different towns (also different ISPs), with two different computers.
