Sign In error HTTP Error 503

[Anonymous]

I'm receiving a Sign In error HTTP Error 503 at the beginning of lunching Eagle 9.0.1. I need access to this software ASAP!

I'm also trying to work on a board for my company, wanted to get it sent out for PCBA tomorrow morning. This is an excellent example of why cloud subscription models suck. Back in the day, I could just buy the version of Eagle I wanted, and use it offline as much as I liked. Now we're increasingly tied to the cloud, and subscription software, a dev making a mistake on the server can cancel everyone's plans...

By the way, if you can't use Eagle at all, as you can't login, you might be able to edit the file Eagle uses to determine if you need to login. It's at: C:\Users\{user name}\AppData\Roaming\Eagle\subscription.v1 . It's just a text file - if you make a backup then edit theEapiration, LastUseDate and SignedInAt fields etc then relaunch, it might work. My fields are set to:
Expiration=2021-11-22T22:15:24Z
LastUseDate=2021-10-24T13:04:48Z
ContentServerSessionExiration=2021-11-07T15:32:31Z
SignedInAt=2021-10-23T15:32:31Z

i cannot enter in eagle at all since mine is premium, it shows that message on the sign in and if i close it eagle close with it

As a backup to this issue, y'all might want to consider Kicad. Yes - its a learning curve but the benefits outweigh the biggest issue; The yearly fee you are being forced to pay, and the software NEVER phones home.

If however, you still have versions up to 7.7.0 you might want to consider going back if you want to avoid the 2 items I mentioned. The drawback, once you created a schem in newer versions, 7.7.0 and under wont load em.

And something that more and more of us are being concerned with, what telemetry is actually being sent to the mother ship once it does connect? Does anyone really know?

In short, KICAD is a much cheaper and better way to go and will convert EagleCad/AutoDesk schems.

I have Eagle premium too. I can use it, but only as the free version as it's offline. So I can work on the schematic, but not my board layout. Editing the subscription.v1 file worked to bypass the login at least, for now.

[scottH36AU]

I have tried KiCAD, but it's missing some things I use frequently, and I have a lot of custom scripts and ULPs that I use in Eagle, along with lots of 3D models I use to render boards for clients etc. When I do move, it'll probably be to Altium.

[ezekiel.brooks89]

Yes, I hear that. Circa £500 the company paid, and this is the 3d time this has happened. Always on the weekend as well.. It may well be worth looking into a different company who cares about their clientele. Way to go Autodesk.. 

[anthony.arcana]

really? i cant ope either schematics either boards, keep showing me 503 Service Temporarily Unavailable

I'm also having this issue as well. Has anyone heard anything from Adobe yet? It's ridiculous this is still happening close to four hours later

[ezekiel.brooks89]

Not a single thing. I opened a case, however Autodesk have quoted 48h to respond. What a joke.

I think I found something about this. There's a post in the Fusion 360 Electronics forum about scheduled maintenance. According to this thread, it's still ongoing

https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-360-electronics/maintenance-intervention-on-our-electronics-ba...

EDIT: Looks like it's back now! Autodesk needs to do a better job at communicating this. At the very least they should show a message that says something like "down for maintenance"

[ezekiel.brooks89]

Well spotted. Its now back up and running. THANKS FOR THE NOTIFICATION IN ADVANCE AUTODESK, Why no send out a blinking e-mail!

Solved for now, but going to migrate to other alternatives. Online software sucks...

[ezekiel.brooks89]

Same here..... wasted a whole day for me.. now I'll be rushing the design to catch up....
