Instead of the Preview page I get

Proxy Error

The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server. The proxy server could not handle the request POST /wikipedia/en/w/index.php.

Reason: Error reading from remote server

I see this when attempting diffs while using Firefox.

<RobH> pls do not spend a lot of time on it
<RobH> I am racking another server soon to be the new secure gateway.

On March 31:
00:50 Tim: increased apache TimeOut setting on singer from 5 to 30 seconds, to hopefully fix multiple reports of high error rates on secure.wikimedia.org

And today:
01:11 < atglenn> yes that was fixed

I haven't seen reports on the village pumps or anything either in april.
