Everyone,

Thanks for letting me know that the AOLserver Wiki was down this
morning.

According to logs, it ran out of memory around 01:40 AM US/Eastern,
which prevented execution of PHP pages (MediaWiki) but not serve other
traffic (which is why my automated monitoring didn't pick up the
problem).  I hadn't configured my monitoring scripts to specifically
monitor the wiki, but just the server to make sure it was responding.

I've bounced the server and the wiki is back up now at 11:30 AM
US/Eastern.  I've set it to automatically restart daily at 04:00 AM to
try and keep this from happening again -- the nsd process had been
running since October 15th or so which was its last restart -- until I
can try to chase down the memory issue.

I apologize for the inconvenience this has caused; I know many people
rely on the information in the wiki and I hope this wasn't too
disruptive for people.

Also, I want to thank those who have been vigilantly keeping the spam
off the wiki.  Without your watchful care, the wiki wouldn't be as
valuable as it is.  Thanks.
