So we've made some headway in resolving all of the inevitable issues that
cropped up after migrating a lot of cloud instances to all new
infrastructure and assigning a new IP to each of them. Many Thanks to
Krenair and Andrew for all the great work you've been doing to get things
back to normal.
Despite each of our efforts, there is still a configuration error
preventing MediaWiki from working in beta. I've been stuck for several
hours now but I'm hopeful that this is the last major issue and I'm sure
it's simple for someone who understands MediaWiki internals better than I
do. Unfortunately I'm completely stumped so I could really use some help
from someone who understands the configuration of MediaWiki session storage
and the underlying object cache.
The problem is described in
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T210030 so I
won't repeat it here. I'll simply appeal for those of you who know
something about how "BagOStuff" is configured, please take a look at
T210030 and point me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance for taking a look. I apologize for the inconvenience
caused by this unfortunately unavoidable interruption of service.

Due to a lucky arrangement of schedules, we are going
to move the
deployment-prep project to the new Cloud region this week, starting in a
few minutes. *This includes all of the infrastructure behind the
beta.wmflabs.org site.*
Various people will be standing by to troubleshoot the outages that
result, but for the most part if you see bad behaviors you should
disregard or work around them for the time being.
Once everything is moved and semi-stable I will send a followup email,
at which point the deployment-prep team will once again become
interested in bug reports :)
Sorry for the short notice! With a little luck this should be mostly
painless.
