Just an alert to Mania: Server failures

[Jangalian]

Same here, so Saturo, yer not alone. =) Same error too, btw.

So I have good news and I have bad news ...

The good news is that I now have the data I need to start debugging this problem. The bad news is that, with only a quick glance so far, it looks like I was wrong about Warcraft Mounts causing the problem. Instead, it seems that this forum may be bringing down the entire box.

There's another phpbb running on the same box and not causing problems, so it may be a mod or a different version or something. Anyway I'm starting in-depth debugging now.

Okay, I think I found the problem. I'm turning off the RSS/Atom feed -- both the news feed and the normal all-posts feed -- until I can confirm the problem. I may be able to turn it back on with slightly changed parameters later, but I figured it was safer to kill it completely for the moment.

So! If, starting now, you hit a 500 or 503 Server Error on the forums, the blog, Petopia, or Warcraft Mounts please let me know! (And I'll do this all over again.)

[Saturo]

Will do! /salute

Let's hope this fixes the problem, it's actually quite annoying.

Picking this back up ...

How have things been lately? Any better? Any worse?

Have not had a problem in awile now.

Been better for me as well. I can't remember any major failures throughout July.

No worries on this side of the world.
But then, I don't live in the forums any more like I used to.
