Description:
Hello, in Arabic wikipedia, many users report technical difficulties when they try to access the main page. some user have reported a very long delay (about 1-2 minutes) before they can load the main page. I was suspecting a server name indication since the secure server produced an error about the main page was not exit!
They experience the same issue after purge/bypass main page,s cache.
The errors occur per requesting the main page within the mediawiki interface using the main page's link, or by typing the address directly.
Here is some error they have reported:
The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the request GET /wikipedia/ar/wiki/الصÙØØ©_الرئيسية.
Reason: Error reading from remote server
Apache/2.2.14 (Ubuntu) Server at secure.wikimedia.org Port 443
A database error has occurred. Did you forget to run maintenance/update.php after upgrading? See: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Upgrading#Run_the_update_script
Query: UPDATE `user` SET user_touched = '20120911172013' WHERE user_id = '138585' AND (user_touched < '20120911172013') Function: User::invalidateCache
while other pages can be modify/read naturally, a request to the main page made by a user who saved the main page,s path in his bookmark produce this error:
Request: GET http://ar.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B5%D9%81%D8%AD%D8%A9_%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B1%D8%A6%D9%8A%D8%B3%D9%8A%D8%A9, from 62.76.41.63 via cp1004.eqiad.wmnet (squid/2.7.STABLE9) to 10.64.0.130 (10.64.0.130)
