You should consider yourself lucky as Wyoming doesn't even exist and you somehow managed to post from there.

Have no idea if this is anything relevant, but, bizarrely, the site seems to work significantly faster for me on iOS Safari than on either Chrome or FF on PC while being connected to the same router (Wi-Fi on mobile, Ethernet on PC). This behavior was consistent throughout the day.

That IS weird!

Finally achieved my first 502.

My ISP and carrier both suck so bad I didn't notice any issues with slowdowns - all sites always work like this, besides the 502.

nomdeplume · Sep 16, 2024

Guessing this was an expected event that rarely happens on forum anymore. Typically this was a result of someone(s) erasing numerous messages on their account or a massed sweeping of posts out of sight by mods/admin. Directly following this I received a line of text in top left corner while refreshing front page, "A server error occurred. Please try again later."

Trying without attachment showing an empty page with page number headers - Worked. Site will not accept a Ctrl-V screenshot.

wNotyarD · Sep 16, 2024

Well, I'm having some issues right now, but I can't upload the screenshot as it throws an error right away - "A server error occurred. Please try again later."

The same error message also may appear when opening the alerts list.

Confirmed, our attachment filesystem is readonly at the moment. Running a backup and then trying to fix

edit: should be fixed now

Let me test it then.

This was the error I was getting when trying to load some pages:

Was getting it earlier when I mentioned it but couldn't attach the screenshot. Didn't happen again, but I thought it would still be interesting to share it.

EDIT: just got a several minutes long 502.

de.das.dude · Sep 16, 2024

was just about to make a post

-- removed -- insert thumbs not full attachments --

test

fixed now

W1zzard · Sep 16, 2024

whoops, disk full, because i had too many backups t.t

BlaezaLite · Sep 16, 2024

I had a 502 error. Fine now.

stinger608 · Sep 16, 2024

Yeah, site seems to be running great now.

Indeed, I reinstalled one of three core web servers, updating the OS in the process, from Fedora 38 to Ubuntu 24.04, which means much newer kernel and much newer software. Didn't expect it to make such a big difference.

edit: we can run that node without kube-proxy now, maybe that's what's making the difference (https://docs.cilium.io/en/stable/network/kubernetes/kubeproxy-free/). Will reinstall the other two nodes tomorrow, hopefully with less issues/downtime

Veseleil · Sep 16, 2024

It's much better now, I can confirm on my side.

Macro Device · Sep 16, 2024

Attached random pic for testing purposes.

Yeah, works really well. Great work, magic man!

LOL! Been there... way to many times... It's amazing how fast storage provisions fill up.

Just got HTTP error code 502 again and right afterwards, the favicon is gone now, LOL.

Starting work on the 2nd server reinstall, some downtime expected

You ever consider putting up a notification banner to let people know about this?

I'm trying to keep things running 100%, no "scheduled" downtime, but bad things happen. The vast majority of our visitors each day visit for a few minutes only, so why make them worry about things that don't affect them?

chrcoluk · Sep 17, 2024

I only been back on for a short time, but the 5-10 minutes on here does seem better than before the weekend, so far no stalls.

If they visit for a few minutes a day and the experience is shit because things are broken and there's no explanation as to why, they are going to assume that the experience is always this shit and never return.

If you give them an explanation for why the experience is shit, they're far more likely to try again later.

So I guess it boils down to how much you care about user acquisition and retention.

I ported all my shit from cent to Ubuntu during the big shift. It has been a great experience.

Also website is running so much better today.
