Thanks Ferenc, we're seeing much healthier traffic levels now :) - Jonathon On 10/04/2013 00:17, Ferenc Kovacs wrote:
Sorry for the late reply. I've finally had the time to look into this, and I have found the culprit:to fix another problem, we switched the ServerName and ServerAlias (www.php.net <http://www.php.net> and php.net <http://php.net>) on the primary mirror, and that caused an unexpected issue: only the primary mirror (php.net <http://php.net>) can redirect traffic to other mirrors, and that check only considered php.net <http://php.net> for the primary mirror, but not www.php.net <http://www.php.net>. after the switch, $MYSITE was always 'www.php.net <http://www.php.net>', so we never redirected to the specific mirrors, I've fixed this in http://git.php.net/?p=web/php.git;a=commit;h=2d5f7af0f346456ec46d4675ba640369fcc53fec and now the search on php.net <http://php.net> properly redirects (if the visitor has a specific mirror set or the primary site is overloaded and we have an active mirror nearby). Thanks for the report, and sorry again for the inconvenience On Wed, Feb 27, 2013 at 2:56 PM, Jonathon Wardman <jonathon@fubra.com <mailto:jonathon@fubra.com>> wrote:
    I see the same thing, even with the preferred mirror explicitly
    specified as our UK mirror in 'my php.net <http://php.net>'. I
    guess couple that with the Google custom search pointing to the
    master php.net <http://php.net> server, and you have an
    explanation for the drop in traffic.

        Hi all,
        For some time now I noticed that after entering url f.ex.
        php.net/mysqli <http://php.net/mysqli> I'm not redirected to
        pl1.php.net/mysqli <http://pl1.php.net/mysqli>, a local mirror
        for me as I'm from Poland. This can be seen also in the stats,
        we have 70% dropdown in visits, page hits etc. in February
        (http://pl1.php.net/stats/). I don't know if it is a bug and
        if other mirrors also behave like this. Can someone comment on
        this?
        Regards / Pozdrawiam,
        Oskar Szafraniec
