Wikidata reconciliation service unreacheable (HTTP 502 error), unable to restart the service
Closed, DuplicatePublic

Description

The Wikidata reconciliation tool currently returns a "502 Bad Gateway" when requesting its main page: https://wdreconcile.toolforge.org/ (or in fact any other page, as far as I can tell).

In my experience this happens regularly (not sure why). When the error is consistent I generally try to restart the service with webservice --backend kubernetes python3.7 restart.

This command runs as usual but does not fix the 502 error (unlike T262550).

Therefore I am unable to fix this outage.

Note: I have been trying to encourage users to switch to another instance of this service hosted outside of Toolforge because of recurrent stability issues. However, this service still sees more traffic than the new instance, hence filing this ticket.
