The 500 error has the headers: > Expires: Sun, 16 Dec 2012 15:02:46 GMT > Cache-Control: max-age=604800 So http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Special:Random fails while the other variations work because there is a cached answer for that url. I see that url as a HIT, not as a TCP_NEGATIVE_HIT, though. X-Cache-Lookup: HIT from squid1.uesp.net:80 I don't know why purging is not working for you (it should fix it) or how that page arrived there to begin with. _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
