wikidata beta is (and has been inaccessible) with 503 errors. hhvm is running there.
finally located logs in /var/log/upstart and we have fatal errors:
Fatal error: Argument 1 passed to Wikibase\\EntityContentFactory::getTitleForId() must be an instance of Wikibase\\EntityId, Wikibase\\DataModel\\Entity\\ItemId given in /srv/common-local/php-master/extensions/Wikidata/extensions/Wikibase/repo/includes/content/EntityContentFactory.php on line 83
this is a class alias issue, which i think is resolved in latest hhvm (things work in vagrant and travis no longer has this issue)
We cen remove the evil class aliases anyway but would be good to know for sure if the bug is gone in hhvm or if we somehow don't have the bug fix in the hhvm version we are using.
