Hey guys,
This may be affecting some of you -- just wanted to drop you a line to let
you know that there is some weird shit going on with the code running on
pycs.net. I'm getting segfaults inside the MetaKit (database) code on the
server. I suspect that the database is damaged, but I've already rebuilt
it, so I'm stumped for the moment.
I've put in a supervision script to restart the server when it dies, but if
anybody notices anything weird like rankings or comments not working, please
get in touch ASAP so I can take a look. It should be a bit more reliable
from now on -- no mre several hour outages after crashes.
BTW, that means now if you get a 'proxy failure' error when accessing pages
on pycs.net, something has _really_ gone wrong, so please get in touch
straight away! :-)
Cheers,
Phil
