Hi Guys

Having a mini crises at the moment, my website is down getting the following error:

HTTP/1.1 500 ( Connection refused )
Via: 1.1 G2ACPTISA01
Connection: close
Proxy-Connection: close
Pragma: no-cache
Cache-Control: no-cache
Content-Type: text/html
Content-Length: 4314

The IP is 66.228.38.204.

Can you please help me diagnose the problem?

Thanks

Sadie

One possible cause is an error in .htaccess, or httpd.conf, or other config files.

Thanks for the reply, but I managed to resolve the problem.

What was the problem and the fix?

Not sure what the exact problem was, but I suspect that we overloaded the server, too many requests, etc. Sys admin had to rebuild the entire linode instance.
