They´ve had the same problem 2 or 3 weeks ago. Something went wrong with their scripts. It´s not a hack.

It could be hardware driven up to the limits...
Or perhaps the parrot in the server forgot part of the script...

Not a hack. Same problem as several weeks ago. And I fixed the script this time.

It happens when the disk on the webserver disk gets full. Odd thing is, it's not really full - it's only 92% full - so there's a greater issue here than just a full disk - there's some volume management issue somewhere along the line.

When I worked on a radar system, it used VAX computers and wrote log files to the system disk, well if the radar was up too long the system disk would fill up until the VAX could not do any swaping.

I forget how the Sys Admins fixed it, but the OS was still up, it was just patiently waiting for room to become available on the disk. As soon as there was room ... off we go ... :)

Excuse a newbie coming in here but I still have a problem with the homepage. If I try to connect to the homepage from the project tab then I get directed to a page with a Hewlett packard and O'reilly logos on it. What's going on?

You describe the output of the crashed script. The logos are some sponsor logos at the end of the normal page.

May be there is a old cache entry or proxy in your way to Berkeley. Try to empty your browser cache and refresh the the page (and possible wait and try again).

The page is up and running since some time.

Hello!

Maybe 8% of disk space is reserved for superuser?
I got a lot of disk space when changing /home partitions to have 0% reserved.
Superuser needs space in /, /tmp, /var but not in /home.
