Stuck on Checking Availability

[dan296]

Is anyone else currently having this issue? I am attempting to create a github repo through the "Create a new repository" form on the web application, but it seems the form gets stuck attempting to check the availability of the repository name. I inspected the page in Chrome and found a failing POST call to github.com/repositories/check-name. I believe this bug must have just come about

I have the same problem..

In some cases, checking the availability of the repository name is delayed because of network connection issues.
Please check your network and refresh page and try again.
Hope this will help you.

Looks like there is still an issue with this. I'm getting a 500 response from this endpoint.https://github.com/repositories/check-name.

I've been having this problem for three days now. I've done all the suggested fixes, I'm on a project deadline and this is incredibly frustrating. Are there other suggestions of what to try?

Error still persisten within Chrome with and without any possible AddOn(s).

Here is a Log from what is shown to me within F12, maybe this helps out to fix it:
github.com-1709750085383.log

And no, I am not going to change my default browser not even Edge ;)
