500 Internal Server Errors - Moonface - Jun 4th, 2021
I am aware that 500 Internal Server errors have started happening within the past hour across the entire board. I am currently looking into the issue, but in the meantime if this happens, simply refresh the page until it loads. As far as I know, the board is still usable as normal but just randomly throws back this error.

I mean, it better be fine. Just having the error is enough stress for me, I don't need it to get worse.

I've noticed I'm getting these errors too, but they're inconsistent. After two or three tries, I was able to get through and make this post
.EDIT: Seems to be resolved on my end at this point... I haven't seen an "Internal Server Error" message for at least an hour now

I at most noticed it may have been related to the host upgrading the server to php 7.4, as every error message was referencing that, so I downgraded to 7.3 in the event it would help. I don't know if that has helped, or if somehow the issue has been fixing itself without my input, but I intend to find out from the host so that the issue doesn't return, or if it does I'm at least better equipped to tackle it than taking shots in the dark.I've noticed I'm getting these errors too, but they're inconsistent.

Update: I just heard back from the host, and basically the issue was a large number of bots accessed the site today and overloaded the php, causing it to reject requests. Given that this has not happened before now, I'm going to monitor things before taking any steps for future prevention, since it may not even happen again.
