There are reports everywhere of uploading new versions of images failing (upload works but new version does not show up).
Last time this happened all that needed to be done was fot varnishhtcpd to be restarted on the image cache servers. [1] could someone with the ability to check, check if that needs to be done again? Imho this type of issue is a rather serious one which causes lots of frustration and confusion.
There are several cases of missing thumbnails on Commons, with ""Error generating thumbnail: The source file for the specified thumbnail does not exist.""
Images uploaded to Commons on Tuesday between 19:14 (or earlier) to 19:17 (Datacenter migration ongoing) did not see any thumbnails generated. Scroll down to see missing thumbnails: https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:ListFiles&offset... This was brought up in https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Village_pump_%28technic...
Not sure if the datacenter move is just a coincidence or related for above issue.
Other issues with similar outcome, but unsuspicious timing: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:%E6%85%88%E6%BF%9F%E5%AE%AEwikipedia... was uploaded January 23rd (yesterday) and a reupload worked. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Halfanim.jpg was uploaded Jan15 2013 already and reported by matanya on IRC today.
Help appreciated.
