But this error came up just these days.

Starting April 29 2015, any new lighttpd webservices started will default to Ubuntu trusty instead of ubuntu precise as is the case now. Note that none of the current webservices will be migrated by us - if you are running on precise now, it will continue running there until you migrate it yourself.

Where 'migrate yourself' means: webservice stop, webservice start.

To get back the precise webserver,

webservice stop
webservice start --release precise

Thanks, done; things work again. How much time do we have till this bites us again?

We are not planning on removing Precise servers until after we provide Jessie servers. As long as you don't run

webservice stop
webservice start

(i.e. without --release precise)

the service will keep running as precise webservice. If you need to restart the job, webservice restart should restart it as precise by itself.
