Antenati site is Down --message below

Has an error establishing a redis connection



Oh wow, you're right! This is pretty bad - Antenati has been down constantly over the past several months. Does anyone know why there has been so many problems recently?

Fingers crossed it comes back online ...

Ah, thank you very much for the update! So they're updating the site - as of now, it's 9:00am on Monday 8/10/26... still no access to the site. I first noticed the issue on the night of Thursday 8/6/26. Wondering how long the update will take?

Yeah, I'm trying to find other projects to keep myself busy in the meantime - but really just wanting Antenati back up and running! Thanks for your input!

Thank you for your input! Hopefully it is fixed soon!

I'm getting the same message. It usually gets fixed within 24 hours, but lately it seems to take longer -- I think at one point it was down for a week or so. Hopefully they will get it fixed soon. I'm at a standstill myself...


Thank you very much for the feedback! Oh man, a week, that's so long ...

PS: One thing to mention (not sure if this makes a difference?). Giacinto's wife, Giuseppa Civello - her father's name was Don Castrenze Civello, and he was an arbitriante by profession. Several of Giuseppa's brothers were "civile".

Not sure if this helps clarify the full family's status or even ...
