"Unable to Fetch Gist" on example post et. al #49

Closed qnoid closed 10 years ago

qnoid commented 11 years ago

Trying to access the "example post" linked in gist.io get the "Unable to Fetch Gist" error page. Similarly accessing any gist yields the same error page.

Using the "Web Inspector" in Safari, under the "log" panel there is the following error

Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500 (Internal Server Error) http://gist.io/3135754/content

I had this same problem. From what you write, I assume that the server was down when you tried.

But whoever comes here for this error message: turned out I could fix it by naming the file and making sure that the extension of the filename is '.md'. Hope this helps.

I think 497eadbc897a28d4f53a8007cd213dd04280245f should make these sorts of hiccups more rare (or at least, they shouldn't be gistio's fault. ^_^)
