Created attachment 6219 [details] Screen shot of PDF Error on Uniforms of the United States Marine Corps article on enwiki Here's the error message word for word: POST request failed From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search The POST request to http://pdf1.wikimedia.org:8080/mw-serve/ failed (Operation timed out after 3000 milliseconds with 0 bytes received). Return to Main Page. Apparently, I'm not alone: There were postings to Wikipedia Help Desk [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Hd#PDF_won.27t_appear] and Village Pump (technical) [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:VPT#.22PDF_version.22_option_not_working] It also seems that other wikis are having the same issue.

Throwoing +shell and Rob's e-mail on this. Seems to still be kinda broken and I can't find anything relevant in the server admin log.
After a couple of days, it seems to work again. Hmm...
