[Wikitech-l] Lots of proxy errors on secure server
FYI - I am seeing a lot (10-20% of queries) on secure.wikimedia.org return proxy errors, since the recent outage. I had been hoping it would just go away, but the rate is still high... --- Proxy Error The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server. The proxy server could not handle the request GET /wikipedia/en/wiki/User_talk:Foobar. Reason: Error reading from remote server Apache/2.2.8 (Ubuntu) mod_fastcgi/2.4.6 PHP/5.2.4-2ubuntu5.7wm1 with Suhosin-Patch mod_ssl/2.2.8 OpenSSL/0.9.8g Server at secure.wikimedia.org Port 443 --- -- -george william herbert george.herb...@gmail.com ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l

On general principles, given those levels of access, unsecure web credentials usage is a no-no (and there's no unsecure access to OTRS and I think the OTRS wiki...). -- -george william herbert george.herb...@gmail.com ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l

A reload usually fixes the problem, though, so I haven't bothered to try and figure out under which circumstances these errors appear. I've also been able to reload my way out of it when it happens, but the total rate (proxy errors per initial page / access attempts) is high enough to mention at least... 10% plus is pretty noticeable. There may have been periods where it was less failure, but it's been that high for some extended periods I've tried to use it since the outage. It's not a real priority, but irritating enough to bring up. I'd rather me be irritated by this than anything be down with the main insecure site, but if the admins have a chance to look into this I for one would appreciate it. -- -george william herbert george.herb...@gmail.com ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l

RobH will be installing a new secure gateway (gilman) shortly. It was racked some hours ago. ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l

Apparently someone reduced the request timeout to 5 seconds during the downtime on the 24th. -- Tim Starling ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
