1,670 PointsWorkspace Unavailable?
I keep getting this error every time I try and preview my workspace.
"This is a preview link for a Treehouse Workspace that is not currently active. If you are the workspace owner, you can launch it again via the Treehouse site."
I am making sure to save, my workspace is in fact open. My connection seems perfectly fine. I don't get it D:

Jim Hoskins
Treehouse Guest TeacherHi Dani,
Sorry you're having issues. We looked into it and your workspaces appear to be behaving correctly right now. There may have been an issue when you tried it, and we're looking into that.
Let us know if you still have trouble connecting, it should be working now.

Treehouse Guest TeacherTimothy Parenteau Gavin Wilkie - Are the workspaces you are using either "Static" or "PHP" workspaces? If you are using a python or ruby workspace, there is no server running by default for the preview.

2,017 PointsIts all working fine now but not was pretty annoying when I had time set a side for training but couldn't use the workspace. Hopefully it will all be fine from now on.

4,364 PointsI'm also getting this message. This was the case with every python/flask workspace that I have worked on. I just download the workspace materials and work on them on my desktop, since this functionality seems to be broken.
