Whonix IP Check - 503 Service Unavailable

Why do i get directed to a page that displays "503 service unavailable " after clicking on IPCheck ? i reinstalled both gateway and workstation , yet i am receiving the same error. the page displays “Apache Server at checkdottorprojectdotorg Port 443” too

any suggestions ?

https://check.torproject.org is not hosted by Whonix. As indicated by the domain name, it is hosted by The Tor Project. Therefore Whonix project cannot answer this inquiry.

Seems like meanwhile there is a better error message.

https://check.torproject.org
