Could not view OSM maps on official website from Morocco

Hi,

I have troubles to see ajax maps :

  1. From where I am (Morocco / Ubuntu+firefox), http://www.openstreetmap.org/ keep showing white map. I some occasions, with luck, I have one level of map and after that everything is white.
  2. http://www.flosm.de works great (maybe the tiles aren’t located on the same server)
  3. On the same network, other computer with windows XP : openstreetmap.org doesn’t work too. So it doesn’t seem to be a linux or browser problem.

Does anyone know why ajax loading doesn’t work ? I also have troubles with tangogps (on ubuntu) sometimes but right after downloading the map on /tmp/Maps, everything is OK.

So to resume : dynamic map loading doesn’t work but tiles downloading works like a charm.

I know it’s a difficult question, thanks in advance :wink:

Maybe you have a firewall that blocks multiple simultaneous requests to the same webserver, or a proxy that misbehaves.

Others have had this problem too, see: http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=3109
