Question

Does anyone know if this simply means that the Bower server is temporarily down? Freaky having that external dependency!

$ bower install

bower EINVRES       Request to https://bower.herokuapp.com/packages/angular-route failed with 503

NOTE: By the time this writing was finished, problem had gone away.

Still, any ideas on how to mitigate the risk of development being blocked by Bower going down?

Was it helpful?

Solution

Error 503: The Web server (running the Web site) is currently unable to handle the HTTP request due to a temporary overloading or maintenance of the server. The implication is that this is a temporary condition which will be alleviated after some delay.

In this case, find a mirror, or have on hand back up files.
