Web46 is being DOS’d. We’re hoping to restore service asap and we’ll update this post when it’s done.

Update: we were able to stop the attack so web46 is now acting normally.

We’ve had some issues on these servers since yesterday. Basically, a misconfiguration (2 characters to be exact) in our memory watchdog script caused it to kill some root processes it shouldn’t have. This means that we had some SSH issues, DNS issues and databases issues on these servers (basically, these services were dying regularly and getting restarted later).

Fortunately we’ve been able to track down the problem and everything should be back to normal now.

Remi.
