Bluemix DashDB not working - ibm-cloud

My DashDB is not working. When I try to open it, it shows me the error:
"The server refused the connection."
What could be wrong? Is it a problem with bluemix or there's something wrong with my network settings? Help!

Outlook Manifest update server domain not working

I have an Outlook Web Addin, running in O365. This is currently hosted at my first server. (oldserver.domain.com)
I wanted to change the address the addin calls, so I changed all Urls in the Manifest file to (newserver.domain.com)and uploded it via the Microsoft 356 Admin Center. The new manifest was accepted, but the Addin is always calling the oldserver.domain.com. Since these updates sometime take a while to finish, I waited for the next morning.
I found this:
How often does the Outlook exchange server pull the web-addin manifest if they are "sideload" installed via URL
With this description it should already work. How can I get my addin to call the new url?
The changes may take an effect in up to 24 hours, not just next morning. You can find the following statement in the Deploy add-ins in the admin center article:
Outlook add-ins can take up to 24 hours to appear on app ribbons.
Sometimes it is necessary to enable and disable the add-in (multiple times) from the Office 365 admin center.

Unusual email sent in Moodle (reports/insights)

I have Moodle server configured to password reset using a Gmail account. Recently I had to migrate all the Moodle websites to a new CentOS 7 server (The Postfix was active with default configurations). Suddenly all the teachers were received thousands of emails subjected "Students at risk in 'Course Name'" with the body,
>Hi "Teacher name",
>A number of students in "Course Name" have never accessed the course.
>
>View insight (this is a link to 'https://my.moodle.url/report/insights/insights.php?modelid=4&contextid=14517')
One Teacher informed me this is happened due to Insights module and he deactivated the same module. I also deactivated the Postfix. Then everything was fine for about a week.
Today from another Moodle website in the same server has sent an email to another teacher subjected 'Upcoming courses have no teachers or students' and the body,
Hi 'Teacher name',
Courses with start dates in the next week have been
identified as having no teacher or student enrolments.

Please kindly support me to solve this issue. Is my server/ Moodle websites hacked?
Server configurations:
CentOS 7 (Linux my.host.name 3.10.0-1127.8.2.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue
May 12 16:57:42 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux)
Nginx 1.16.1
php 7.2.31
Moodle 3.8
Thank you,
This is due to a setting that must be still activated in Moodle adminitration. You can search for the key-word enableanalytics and turn this setting off.
The server may not send any of those emails after that.

Gateway Timeout when accessing Bluemix WEB IDE/Node.js logs

I am using Web IDE and want to see the log by clicking on the arrow.I can only see an empty "Untitled" page. The Node.js app is running normally. Live edit is switch off.
After some minutes:
Gateway Timeout
The proxy server did not receive a timely response from the upstream server.
Reference #1.45bf1402.1511018717.3dddb8b
I'm not for sure what Web IDE you are referring to. The only one I'm aware of is the DevOps (which works for me below):
It seems to me like this error that you posted would indicate a temporary outage. Is it still an issue?
In any case, I would advise opening a support ticket if you encounter this issue again (more details about your account would help). I think the Bluemix proxy will time out requests if they take too long.

Getting an error calling watson conversation service - Unauthorized : Access is denied due to invalid credentials

I have a node red application deployed in IBM bluemix that calls Watson Conversation Service using conversation node of node red. We use the free pricing plan for the conversation service. This has been working fine for 2-3 months but ran into an intermittent error "Unauthorized : Access is denied due to invalid credentials" today between 13:30 - 15:30 IST. We couldn't recreate the issue after 15:30 IST though. Error was thrown on purely random basis time to time. We could not find any patterns. After 5 - 10 successful calls, we got this error but it is not consistent. Is there anything wrong with conversation service today?
Chandana, if you are still experiencing issues, please post at IBM developerWorks Answers and/or open a Bluemix support ticket. Stack Overflow is for technical programming questions. Here's a link to the kinds of questions to ask on Stack Overflow: stackoverflow.com/help/on-topic .

Bluemix Node-Red

I am a newbie to Bluemix and Node Red (even stackoverflow). I have tried to create an app in Bluemix using the Node Red and IOT Foundation starter, but neither creates the app. The error message is:
BXNUI2028E: Cloud Foundry issued an unexpected exception with the following
message: "Read timed out" See the Troubleshooting topics in the IBM Bluemix
Documentation to check service status, review troubleshooting information,
or for information about getting help.
I searched stackoverflow and this problem is mentioned, but is reported as fixed a few days ago. Help is appreciated.
not sure if your case could be similar to this one
https://developer.ibm.com/answers/questions/164719/bxnui2028e-cloud-foundry-issued-an-unprocessed-exc.html
if not I would suggest to open a ticket to Bluemix Support(see the Support tab inside the Bluemix Console) attaching the log as indicated here:

I hope this helps.
