HTTP 500 error accessing wiki

Strange bug I noticed that I can't access the wiki when logged in my account, it just gives me an HTTP 500 error. Can access it when logged out, however. Guess I'll just hold out on updating pages until this issue gets fixed :roll:

Someone or something is messing witth the site, or with you specifically. Yesterday I saw you had replied on the early white Alps thread, but I went back and your reply was gone (and still is)..

Yup, also been dealing with that as well. It's pretty annoying, but I guess I should be glad this site is even still up..

HTTP 500 also occurs when I submit a post, but if I check the post goes through. Well, at least some of them do.

I've been getting a blank page when I send a post, but they are getting through. Whether malice or just stupidity I can't say. But nothing has changed at my end.

edit: Wiki isn't working for me either. This is new, it worked a couple days ago.

I can confirm wiki is not accessible for me, too. I only get an empty page but no error. Disabling adblocker (just in case...) has no effect.

Same here, but removing the "s" from "https" in the URL opens the wiki for me.

By the way,, at about the same time it seems the problem appeared, the "cookies overlay" referred to in this post disappeared.

Removing the "s" doesn't work for me, but logging out does. Something with tracking or cookies?

I doubt it has anything to do with cookies, or at least it's not a problem on the user end. I've tried multiple browsers to no avail.

By the way, redirect pages and searches don't work for me. Only the precise name of the article.

Still not working for me when logged in. No error, just a blank page when I try to go to the wiki.

edit: ...and blank page after sending a post, but not after editing a post..

Weird that everyone else gets a blank page, but I get some 500 error.

...and weird that it depends on whether logged in or not. My computer and OS are almost as old as my keyboards, if that makes a difference.

The ones who do "fixed" it enough by now, the thing returns so many 500 errors it can't be even scraped to save at least a part of it. By now I'm certain they bought the domain as a pet project to train an AI or just burn some money. Certainly nothing positive for the community.

And they wonder why the hate...

It seems they set up load balancing but it was only tested on the forum.

Has been like that for me since approximately two weeks or maybe even longer. At least some pages on the wiki are readable with the Google translate mode ("translate this page" next to the title on google search).

Meh, that really stinks. I think the deskthority wiki is invaluable and I really like to contribute. But if it's been like this for weeks who knows how long it'll stay like this. :?

Sorry for double posting; but can anybody recommend another place to document classic keyboards? Preferrably a wiki, I find forums for documenting a bit tedious to navigate

can confirm that It's happening to me as well, logged in the wiki returns a 500 error but I logged out and it loaded. Easiest thing I could think of is just maybe opening the wiki in another browser but I still would like to contribute with photos and stuff. hmm hmm

You can browse it to an extend using a mobile browser, but you won't be able to add anything right now. Real bummer.

It's definitely having problems with the backend, I noticed search is pretty broken but if existing links on pages work fine

Most pages are broken, even when you're logged out. This is likely something that's never going to be fixed under the new ownership...
