NGINX error while loading beehaw.org

Good day to all! Over the last 30 minutes or so, I’ve been having issues loading beehaw.org. Sometimes CSS is missing and the page layout is broken, and others there is a server side NGINX error.

Just wanted to make the admins aware this is happening. There are some NGINX settings that can be adjusted to make more threads available to NGINX if it is hitting a worker limit.

  • Thanks. The admins are aware and are looking into the root cause.

    • It's been 8 days, still ongoing with multiple instances, and I do not see any open issue about 'nginx 50x' errors on Github project for lemmy. See public cry: https://lemmy.ml/post/1453121

      • Yes, Beehaw is struggling with uptime. From talking with the admins, this really isn't an nginx issue. It's more that the Lemmy code itself is immature, with memory leaks and SQL performance issues, and those issues are becoming more disruptive as the usage explodes.

        If you've got development skills, helping out the Lemmy project on Github is probably the best way to help. If not, then just press F5 with the rest of us when the site goes down for a bit.

  • Same thing. Another heavy used Lemmy instance has reports of the same problem: https://lemmy.ml/post/1271936
