Anyone else getting some random errors and 500s on here recently?

Hey all,

I just posted an update here https://sh.itjust.works/post/49787

I probably should have listened to my gut and not have went to bed last night.

Should be fixed now, it was related to an nginx setting that needed to be tuned.

I'd hope sleep takes priority.

You got some monitoring in place? Can offer some assistance with monitoring ideas if you need, is part of what I do.

Also take care of yourself. We can go outside if we can’t log in. Or go back to work..

Just happy you have a server running. No rush, get the sleep you need, and thanks for powering things (:

You gotta take care of yourself or you can't take care of anything else.

I know this is an older post but I'll comment anyway.

I haven't been getting any errors, but sometimes when I browse, I'd be scrolling through the comments of a post, and suddenly the post would change.

I didn't dig into it much, but if it starts happening more often, I'll record my network traffic (for the browser) and attach the .har file.

Its a known bug just have to wait for the fix.

Yeah, this is specifically on sh.itjust.works for those viewing this thread elsewhere, but I'm sure other instances are struggling too. I'm not even seeing 500s, just a generic Firefox "Cannot complete request" on mobile and connection resets on Jerboa.

Edit: ah, yep, here come the 500s mixed in there as well.

We are absolutely testing server capacity right now. And the reddit blackout is just starting. Gotta be prepared.

Edit: Apparently we are not testing server capacity just yet, there was a configuration that needed to be updated on the back end, as per the Dude.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

The blackout is currently happening at least in 5000 of the 7000 subs, I assume that's why the errors are happening now.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Wow that's insane! 86% of subs are private rn according to their stats

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That's 86% of the subs that said they would go dark, AFAIK. Not total reddit subs, I think there are something like 20k subs in reddit.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Ohh that makes sense. In hindsight it stands to reason that they have more than 7200 subreddits. Still though, even if 7200 go dark that's a sizable chunk of a redditor's daily consumption. I can only hope that the majority of those will stay private for more than 48h, probably wont do any good but it would at least send a strong message.

Is that hyperbole or are there actual blackout stats somewhere?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Is anyone else having trouble posting? I've had a lot of times when posts/comments fail to go through ("post" button stays as a spinning circle). Sometimes I can get it after a couple times, but I've been stubbornly trying to reply to one comment in c/games all day with no success, despite posting a thread there and making some other posts.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Yup just ran into this problem. First reply gave me the endless spin. Second reply on the same sub went through no problem.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Both on here and lemmy.world, yes. Comments and edits successfully post, but the spinner sometimes goes forever.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Login issue on mobile mostly, but that was also experienced on lemmy.ml as well.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yeah, experiencing the same as well.

This is gonna get quickly out of hand... there should have been an announcement that you should NOT join the most popular instances and just scroll down the list to join an instance that is preferably at the very bottom of the list.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

When I joined this one was one of the smaller ones lol. This instance has been alive for like 6 days.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Yeah, was, past tense 😂.

Loved the domain name, that's why I joined 😂.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

same, I'm always in places like this, my e-mails are all from cock.li. I just love giving someone something like "yeah hi, e-mail me the job offer to [email protected]". And together with being a bit annoyed at the inefficiency of other lemmy instances and how much they focused on which political party and ideology they should follow, this one was a breath of fresh air :)

PS. I still find it to be the best working instance out of all that I have tried. The big ones are slow, the small ones have wrong setups and are buggy, this one is just perfect 💯

God's stamp of approval
