In the error log you can see:
"Description: EVE backend database temporarily disabled."

Eve database was offline at that time. This is not a defect.

You are right, it wasn't a defect with EMMA, though the EVE database being down
wasn't the cause. My firewall has a transparent web proxy that does caching, 
and it
was the source of the errors. Disabling it has fixed the problem.
