Mysterious Disappearing MediaWiki

Rue · April 7th, 2008, 9:54 PM

I'm running two separate instances of MediaWiki 1.6.7 on Pass42, and today my users and I have been experiencing an incredibly bizarre behavior from both of the wikis – they'll load their main pages, but every subsequent page one tries to either click to or navigate to comes out as a completely blank page.

Any reason for this? Should it correct itself? I have no idea what's going on with this, and anyone who had another page open can refresh it and have it not vanish – I've never had this experience before.

Did it generate an error_log or anything? Has your .htaccess been modified?

It hadn't when I checked earlier, but it has now:

Code:

[Mon Apr  7 20:53:00 2008] [error] PHP Warning:  gzdeflate() [<a href='function.gzdeflate'>function.gzdeflate</a>]: insufficient memory in /home/twoflow/public_html/dirtywiki/includes/BagOStuff.php on line 358

I'm not really sure what it's trying to tell me, there.

(Line 358, by the by, is just a very simple end-bracket.)

Try creating a php.ini and putting:

Code:

memory_limit = 32M

It does not seem to care, or be paying attention.
