Hello, the tool / gadget

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:FastCCI

does not return any images for some time now (maybe for about two weeks or so).

It did work on 7th of July 2022 and some days (maybe two weeks) later:

https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Fragen_zur_Wikipedia/Archiv/2022/Woche_27#Commons:_Alle_Dateien_in_allen_Unterkategorien_sehen?

For example, when opening

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Portraits_by_Titian#

and clicking on the "FastCGI" button I should recursively get all images in that category and all subcategories.

For some weeks, no image is returned, the message "Verbinde... (German, translates to ''Connecting...'') stays forever.

Could you please check?

Thanks a lot!

Kind regards,
M2k~dewiki

Yeah, sorry, I didn't see the phabricator task, but somebody emailed me a few months ago. I rerwrote parts of the database generation and the server to allow for larger db sizes (commons is constantky growing). I hope it has been more resilient in the past few months.
