I’m getting intermittent access to the Wiki and MantisBT today.

One attempt might go through (with delayed response) while the next (a few seconds later) reports “Insufficient Storage”

This is annoying on the wiki. But a real deterrent to using the MantisBT system. (Mantis forgets the form contents on a _failed_ commit. Going ‘back’ work inasmuch as it reloads the blank form from same URL. There is no restoration of cached data.)

```python
# Insufficient Storage

The method could not be performed on the resource because the server is unable to store the representation needed to successfully complete the request. There is insufficient free space left in your storage allocation.

Additionally, a 507 Insufficient Storage error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

```

Traffic related, seems to be returning to normal.

Yes the \*Broken project website URL" Error validation is related, but that was from “23 hours ago” and does not apply at this moment.

The important one for the Web component at the moment seems to be the “Could not merge the repository. Error” ?

Thanks for letting me know!

I investigated and found add that on June 18, I accidentally clicked “squash & merge” instead of “rebase & merge” on a Weblate commit, which broke the sync.

Can you please reset the Web component on Weblate for me, so it syncs again?

Thanks!

That is possible but all changes made in Weblate since the merge conflict will be lost. If you want to go down that route I suggest manually merging the 8 commits in Weblate first.

I don’t have admin access to Weblate; if it’s possible to not discard them, that would of course be preferable. Too bad I only noticed after almost three months.

OK. Please merge PR #1377 first, then I’ll do the reset on the Weblate side.

Thanks!! I merged with a merge commit, hopefully Weblate is happy with that 🙏

The wiki has been giving me these insufficient storage error messages several times in the last 48 hours.

Yes.

For example current traffic has been sitting at between 2 to 4 times normal for the last few days with the site working no issue; but spiking occasionally to 6 to 8 times normal traffic and that is when you would be getting that message; this last happened between 11am to 1pm yesterday Australian time; see image that also shows traffic is unfortunately increasing again in the last few hours but not as sharply but still causing the Error 507 for some users but not all users, so sorry nothing to do but wait for the AI bot traffic to pass again while it happens!

Not directly related but since last days (_might be also linked with a web navigator update_), via cloudflare DNS, it seems that they “sniff more” on client side (delay : few secondes, one maybe two) for some web sites with client side scripts. Just the feeling that they want to filter or generate a clean traffic cause of AI bots or attacks.
