LDS Maps not working?

I don't receive any results when I use LDS Maps today. I've entered multiple addresses (trying different areas of the U.S., including my home address) and the result is the same: no results under either closest meetinghouses or assigned congregations. I've also tried three different browsers (firefox, safari, and chrome).

Is anyone else experiencing problems with LDS Maps today?

Yes, I can verify the same problem. I wonder if the database is offline for maintenance or something.

Thank you for your reply. I checked again this evening and found that it's working again.

LDS Maps down again

LDS Maps seems to be down again both from LDS.ORG and CDOL.LDS.ORG. Regardless of browser used I get the following that goes on for several pages:

Error Page Exception

SRVE0260E: The server cannot use the error page specified for your application to handle the Original Exception printed below.

Original Exception:

Error Message: javax.servlet.ServletException: Error creating bean with name 'serializableScopedTarget.userDetails': FactoryBean threw exception on object creation; nested exception is java.lang.NullPointerException
Error Code: 500
Target Servlet: Faces Servlet
Error Stack:
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'serializableScopedTarget.userDetails': FactoryBean threw exception on object creation; nested exception is java.lang.NullPointerException

Maps are working fine for me -- as long as I am not signed in to LDS.org. And it doesn't matter whether I get to the maps via LDS.org > Tools > Maps, or if I login to CDOL and then follow the LDS Maps link in the header. Both of these options go to lds.org/maps.

But if I am signed in to LDS.org, then I do get the error you mentioned when I go to Maps. Or, if I'm already in Maps and I sign in from there, as soon as I complete the sign in and am redirected back to the Maps application, I get the error.
Questions that can benefit the larger community should be asked in a public forum, not a private message.

That's very interesting. Perhaps the problem is more with the pass-through authentication than with MAPS itself. I sure hope they get it fixed since I really need to be logged in as bishop to see member locations in maps. Technology is so helpful ... when it works. Heavy Sigh!
