My website seems to be working fine, but my email had a bunch of sentry emails this morning fro new errors. Not sure what happened:

At least my website seems to be working fine, just interested why I got a bunch of errors this morning.

If for some reason someone is trying random URL's then this can trigger an error. Your error is related to that but then for limit= in the query part of the URL. The code expects an integer value, but someone used a string limit=yes instead of limit=50

If you ask me this was just someone trying to bash or hack your forum.

Interesting, the errors shouldn't even be triggered, we need to be properly sanitising those values, issue logged flarum/core3063 thanks for the report.

Now you have me paranoid lol. I just had an 8 minute outage as well and I havent had any outages in over a month or two...

When I went to my website I saw this error:

Flarum encountered a boot error. Details have been logged to the Flarum log file.

I went into my logs, and this was the latest in the flarum log:

I also took a look at atop and it looks like mysql was taking up a lot of memory...

Anything else I can or should look at? Ironically this occured right after I created a new AMI backup on AWS. I don't think that would have caused this though but I could be wrong.

MikeJones So looks like 43% is about average for mysql on my server. I realized I was looking at the wrong time in the screenshot of atop in my last post. Here is atop right before the outage, not sure I see anything odd:

Then if I go to the next time stamp it looks like a lot of things just restarted on the server:

then next time stamp:

And then it looks like things are running again:
