Description: I tried to browse to the documentation of the LibreOffice component access2base at htts://www.access2base.com/ and https://www.access2base.com/ in the browser Google Chrome. Each time, I receive back a blank page, with only the words in the page, in the center of the page, "This site can’t be reached Check if there is a typo in www.access2base.com. If spelling is correct, try running Windows Network Diagnostics. DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN" Steps to Reproduce: 1. In any web browser, browse to http://www.access2base.com/ 2. In any web browser, browse to https://www.access2base.com/ Actual Results: 1. In any web browser, browse to http://www.access2base.com/ 2. In any web browser, browse to https://www.access2base.com/ Expected Results: www.access2base.com home page loads correctly Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes Additional Info: NOTE, I tried to start to report this error at "https://redmine.documentfoundation.org/" but Single Sign-On is not working.
This is not SPAM.
I am looking for the new documentation site to access2base https://help.libreoffice.org/latest/en-US/text/sbasic/guide/access2base.html gives me the URL to here: http://www.access2base.com/ However, when I browse to there, I receive back the message, "This site can’t be reached Check if there is a typo in www.access2base.com. If spelling is correct, try running Windows Network Diagnostics. DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN."
Jean-Pierre: I confirm the website can't be reached whereas it's indicated in different locations in source code. Any thoughts here?

The bug is confirmed. I had indeed to relinquish the domain name and the webhosting for personal reasons. Sorry for that. I would prefer for the future to have the opportunity to store the documentation on a TDF host. - wiki ? - Source repo ? - ... Olivier, a suggestion ? Anyway, as a workaround for the short-term, and to see how it looks now, I insert asap a zipped version of the actual content of the site. Unzip it in any directory on your hard disk and open access2base.html.
Created attachment 206782 [details] Access2Base documentation Unzip and open access2base.html
The documentation needs to be stored on a server somewhere that is outside of non-opensource control. Having a 3rd party domain or host go down and the documentation disappearing forever is not a good idea. Do any good places exist to store the documentation ?
the A2B documentation is now available at https://access2base.libreoffice.org The help page development is stored in TDF git repo at https://git.libreoffice.org/dev-tools/+/refs/heads/master/Access2Base/

About this bug one more thing is to do, Adolpho from Ubuntu noticed. On the help page before the link the icon is exclamation mark, like a danger icon, maybe it should be chamged to something like info icon. Olivier?
