"Oops! we ran into some problems"

[Don in CT]

my post with the Instagram link and the replies are gone…

Or maybe they never existed at all.

I just saw an error 500 internal server error about 60 seconds ago.

Yeah I was adjusting things again.

But good news almost 100% tuned now.

Site was completely down for me for a few minutes

We ran out of space in our /boot partition.

I had to go in and clear out old Kernels as it was storing 5 of them. Now it only stores two and we no longer have a space issue in /boot.

I had to reboot to do this... and normally the system boots in about 15 seconds... got scared because it took a lot longer to come back up. I do take snapshots now before doing these things... but still.

I have never seen an unfurl option before.

Unfurl has been around for a while (Fall 2018?). It was/is disabled by default.

Here we go! We're four HYS threads in already and you might be wondering just how many there are left. Well, I can't tell you 😉 But what I can tell you is - we're not even half way through yet! In case you've not yet seen the previous entries, you can check them out here. As ever, to ensure...

"Unfurling" is the process by which Xenforo visits the link and collects metadata and contextual information. If the site doesn't report that metadata, it is supposed to default to just displaying the link.

"Unfurl" is the protocol that allows media posts from Instagram, Youtube, Twitter etc to embed/display in our threads.. here's an example

Thanks.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Phew each time I see another post in this thread, I get nervous thinking something broke... as I wasn't doing anything to it this time.

Glad to see this wasn't the case.

Well then why not call it "embed" rather than something that's a nautical term (to me)? (I know this isn't your fault CN. Just don't say "irregardless" or you'll get a stern look from me.)

Maybe the people who write the code for Xenforo lack creativity?

PS I hope you enjoyed "Send Us Thine Asteroid, O Lord"

I thought it was clever that they chose a word that contained "URL".

Indeed.

Not being a huge fan of the Edge browser (I prefer Firefox), I've been getting a 403 Forbidden error for the past 2 weeks and was really missing this site. Finally, I opened Edge and came here and look, the site is (and has been) up for quite some time since the server move.

So, can anyone please tell me what I need to do to get it to show up in Firefox? I'd very much prefer not to have to dump my cache in Firefox. The last time I did that (last summer), I regretted it for at least a week or so. Has anyone else run into this?

I always use Firefox and I had no such problem right through the server move. I think you must have customized something that's preventing FF from getting here.

I've had to clear my cache (just for SG) once or twice and it wasn't that bad. Just make sure you remember your password.

Use Chrome.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Sounds like a caching issue in Firefox.

I just knew it...I knew I was going to have dump the cache to fix this (from what I've been reading on the internet0. Man, I hate doing that, but I'll do it to get this site back.
