What's Going On with the AWS Control Plane?
Asked by

I've been running into constant errors in the AWS console since yesterday afternoon, and it's still happening this morning. This is all happening in the us-east-2 region. Interestingly, everything seems fine on the data plane. Is anyone else having similar issues? It's strange because there's no mention of an incident anywhere. Just to add, I found that switching to Chrome from Safari fixed the issue for me!

What kind of errors are you seeing? Do they seem to come and go? Are they more like 'action denied' types? I haven't noticed any issues on the EU regions recently.

I experienced the same thing yesterday on the us-west-2 region. I was getting random error messages when trying to load tables on the DynamoDB console and checking the health dashboard on SES. Luckily, it cleared up about an hour later.

Yeah, it turns out there’s a problem with the Safari browser. Once I switched to Chrome, everything worked smoothly again.

Check out this [Downdetector link](https://downdetector.com/status/aws-amazon-web-services/)—there was a spike in errors yesterday, but it seemed to be in unrelated regions. It might be something on your end causing interference, like updates from your antivirus or some odd firewall settings.

Same situation here since Monday! If you open the Safari web inspector, you'll notice plenty of JavaScript, cross-site domain, and DNS errors popping up. It's driving me to use other browsers, and I really miss using Safari as my main!
