some users are reporting that images are not loading. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Teahouse#Images_not_loading?
from off-wiki discussion, it seems to only affect users on the us west coast; according to one user, activating a vpn solved the issue.
i am not on the west coast, and the issue does not affect me.
Hi @lettherebedarklight, thanks for taking the time to report this!
What does happen? If you try to open one of those images themselves (not the File: page of an image), which error code do you get?
I'm on the East Coast and I think I have this issue, specifically when trying to replace invalid SVGs with valid SVGs on Wikimedia Commons.
Again: What does happen? If you try to open one of those images themselves (not the File: page of an image), which error code do you get?
I may be wrong but this was due to a temporary issue we had with upload.wikimedia.org in ulsfo, which matches the time of this report, and also matches the traffic from New Zealand, since that goes to ulsfo as well. I believe that this should now be resolved.
Hi: Following up to see if this issue still persists; I think perhaps not (see my comment above) since I think it was transient but please let us know.
Boldly resolving for the reasons above: the issue was transient because we responded to it, there is no follow up and there is nothing on our side to indicate that this persists.
I am taking the liberty to close this as part of regular task cleanup, please re-open if desired.
