Good news: the federation problem on fedia.io, as well as the problem with getting an error 500 when submitting a thread, have been solved. (fedia.io)

Fedia.io is sort of like she Ship of Theseus right now - I literally replaced nearly everything trying to get it back working.

The problem ended up being a silent out of memory error that php-fpm was running into. I had to increase the memory limit to about 10x what the docs require to get it to work, but once I did that, it works great.

I was only able to sort this out after @bentigorlich recommended I move the site to debug mode (which requires me to lock everyone else out). Once I did that, it started giving some useful errors.

My apologies for the amount of time it took to fix this. I learned a lot about php today.

It takes a village.

Do you have any insight into why it's so much more memory-hungry than the docs indicate? Is that a problem on its own, or just normal and accepted behavior for Mbin?

[–] jerry@fedia.io 6 points 4 months ago

I don’t know yet - it’s definitely not expected, so my guess is an unintentional bug in mbin somewhere. I am hoping to find a way run a profiler or something similar to see what it’s doing.
