Hello all,

From my side I cannot even connect, I receive the following message, when trying to log with WMCH gmail account.

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your request. Either the server is overloaded or there is an error in the application.

Thanks for your help

Wikimetrics has been having serious connectivity problems for a few days.  It turned out to be solvable by using some new hostnames (labsdb1002.eqiad.wmnet).  I fixed it just now, please retry your reports and let me know if anything is still wrong.

Hi everyone.  I will work on this as soon as I get into the office, in about an hour from now.  Yuvi suggested one thing that I wasn't aware of that might make this a simple fix.

Hi Kevin,

Sorry to be a pest but do you have any update on sorting out the Wikimetrics issues? It seems to have gotten worse since we last spoke to you with around 1 in 10 reports going through.

Thanks,

Dan

All the developers are in transit to SF today.  Dan said he'd be in the office this afternoon.  First dev I see I'll notify them of problems in wikimetrics.

Hello again gentlemen,

I think Dan might have already pinged you, but just in case, I wanted
to let you know that we are getting these failures again.  It's kind
of crunch time for getting this data, so we're just banging our heads
against the wall and retrying the reports until they work (1 out of 4
times for me.)  Is there any way you all could work your magic again?

Many thanks once again,
Amanda
