Site settings could not be loaded: HTTP Response Status Code: 410

[sir_timbit]

Hi there,

I have a dekiwiki running in a VMware VM that conked out recently. It's been working fine for about three years until now. When I restarted the VM (Debian 2.6.26-24) and go to the site, I get the error message above:

"Site settings could not be loaded. We were unable to locate the API to request site settings. Please see below for debugging information. If this is a new install, try refreshing - the API is simply taking its time loading up!
HTTP Response Status Code: 410"

I've been searching on the forums here and have seen lots of similar entries but unsure about the 410 status code.

I'm very new to dekiwikis and mindtouch and not sure where to start troubleshooting. I have backups of the VM itself so if all else fails I can revert back, but it's pretty old. I also have a backup of the SQL database and assorted files that is more recent, but I'm not sure what's causing the problem.

When I view /var/log/dekiwiki/dekiwiki-api.log, I see the following:

2012-07-30 10:20:46,610 [DispatchThread #11] WARN MindTouch.Dream.DreamHostService - StopService: child service was not shutdown properly(local://8a3b178224144e1abaa688eaac20a78f/deki/pubsub)

I'm still searching but if anyone could provide even some basic guidance here that'd be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I'm in the same boat and not finding a lot of assistance out there... Happens some days 3 times per day... other days not at all.... very odd!
