"Guides" page on rexify.org return 502 error

[Steve Dondley]

Rex looks like just what I've been looking for. But I'm having issues pulling up pages in the "Guides" section of http://rexify.org, as well as a few other pages.

Example of a broken page: https://www.rexify.org/docs/guides.html

Please advise.

Looks like the guide is back up. Thanks to whoever fixed this.

Looks like many API documentation pages are broken as well. Example: https://www.rexify.org/docs/api/1.4/rex/group/lookup/command.pm.html

If you know the link to the original guides, they seem to work (e.g. https://www.rexify.org/docs/guides/cheat_sheet/index.html) but the links in the new base site are all borked, either linking to non-existent github locations or just redisplaying the rexify.org base page.

not sure what you mean by "the original guides", but yes, that link works as expected

 

but the links in the new base site are all borked, either linking to non-existent github locations or just redisplaying the rexify.org base page.

what do you mean by all links borked in the new site? can you be more specific please, and show an example? there's some ongoing link cleanup work to enable build-time link checking, so it would be useful to know your problematic links are covered

cheers,

FErki

They seem to be working today...the home page looks different too,
though I don't remember what it looked like before. In any case...never
mind! Probably something in the transition...

ah, I assume by "new site" you originally meant the one driven by the previous content engine from ~mid-2015 till 2019 mid-May, while I meant the _current_ engine after 2019 mid-May which fixed many of the shortcomings of the previous setup.

In any case...never mind!  Probably something in the transition...

I guess it was a false alarm then and there's nothing extra to do on our part.

ps.: in similar cases feel free to report bugs against the website repo ;)

cheers,
