Over the past week or so I have noticed very occasionally that a page or an asset has not rendered in response to a request. choroba has also mentioned in the CB seeing this or something similar. Just now this has happened fortuitously while I had the network console running in my browser and it reports these problems:

A 500 response when attempting to retrieve https://www.perlmonks.org/css/common.css from the server at 209.197.123.153 at 11:16:54 GMT (Response header timestamp).

A 500 response when attempting to retrieve https://www.perlmonks.org/?node=list replies toggle javascript from the same server at the same time.

The 2 assets were then immediately re-requested by the browser and successfully served by that same server with the same timestamps.

I hope that this helps in tracking down the problem.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
