RPA wiki down/gone?

Ruby
1

I just tried to get onto the Ruby Production Archive wiki, and it
appears to have been removed or disabled somehow.

I knew they were having spam troubles for some time…does anyone know
what happened? There’s a lot of good information on there, so if
anyone happens to have a backup, I’d at least like to snag a copy of
that from you. :slight_smile:

Thanks,
Jeremy

I recovered all the nodes I could, got rid of all the spam and made the
wiki
read-only some time ago, but…

For some reason the UseModWiki CGI (/wiki/wiki.cgi) has been deleted (or
maybe
lost in one of Rubyforge’s frequent crashes?). It seems the wiki nodes
are
still there, but the webserver refuses to run the new CGI I just
uploaded
(or, for the matter, other CGIs that used to work before); looks like a
change in Rubyforge’s configuration. I’m contacting the admins;
hopefully you
won’t have to wait too long.

The wiki is back. Kudos go to Tom C. for his quick response.

Hey Mauricio,
I had referenced a few pages a while back, but when trying to access
them again while doing some work, I couldn’t get to them. Thanks for
getting it back up and running!
