This is the status page for Fark's behind-the-scenes geekery. If there's a major outage or problem, we'll try to post something here about it... unless we're too up to our eyeballs in trying to actually fix it... so check here if Fark's hosed for an extended length of time. Normally this page will be blank. :-)
For more minor issues, see Mike's blog, or maybe Drew's Bluesky or that other place.
Our web/db servers are hosted on Vultr,
and they have their own status page.
Our images are hosted on Linode,
and they have their own status page.
Both are fronted by Cloudflare,
and they have their own status page.
Our email servers, and this outage page, are hosted at Amazon AWS
in case of problems with the other hosting companies.
Current known issues:
Tue Nov 12 21:54:07 EST 2024: There may be an outage of 10-15 minutes tonight, during which
you'll probably get an error page from Cloudflare saying we aren't reachable. We're going to try to fix the
sporadic "no server is available to handle this request" errors from Vultr's load balancers that pop up for
about 3 minutes at a time, a few times a week... which is caused by a private IP error that Vultr hasn't been
able to find and fix yet. So we're going to force it to rebuild the load balancer VMs and see if that helps.
Probably going to do this a bit after midnight US/Eastern time. Also, Duke sucks.
UPDATE: completed without any apparent outage
Previous issues:
nothing notable
Live basic health check:
(very basic and not always reliable; we have a better one internally)
It's probably time I updated this picture from June 2008.
