Title: TCL wiki is down
Post by: GNUser on April 01, 2020, 12:17:54 PM
FYI - For past few days, when I go to http://wiki.tinycorelinux.net I get "HTTP 500 Internal Server Error".

P.S. Sorry if this is already a known issue. I searched the forum for "wiki" but didn't get any recent hits.

Darn. Sorry for the noise.

I guess the forum's search box doesn't work too well. When I search for "wiki" the most recent hit I get is from August 9, 2019.

Hmm, now when I search the forum for "wiki" I find the posts in this thread but nothing else. I guess I have no clue how the forum's search function works.

Can someone enlighten me or point me to a thread that explains how to adequately search this forum? (My confidence in being able to find such a thread on my own is low.)

You're right. I just tried it with  Search order:  set to  Most recent topics first  and had the same result.

Hm, the quick search box does seem to give weird results. Using the advanced search works ok.

If you use the search box at the top right corner of this page I think it only searches this sub-forum, or maybe just this thread. That's
about as useful as Googles  I'm Feeling Lucky  search option.

Haha, indeed ;D

Yep, so either I only get this thread's hits or, if I go through "Advanced search", I only get up to Aug 9, 2019.
It seems the search algorithm needs some attention. I'd be happy to help tweak and/or test.

Hi GNUser
Maybe the current algorithm can't count past 2019. ::)
