Description David Williams CLA 2011-05-31 15:32:12 EDT 
Maybe you already know this ... maybe wiki is still in "read only" mode? ... but when I try to login to wiki, I just get a blank page back. 

This is trying the "login" link at top right of most wiki pages ... which appears (given the page I'm on) to be

I'm not able to replicate this from my remote site.  Are you still experiencing this error?

Comment 2 David Williams CLA 2011-06-01 14:41:06 EDT 
yes, I am. I've tried two browsers (firefox, opera), two OSs (linux, windows) (on two different machines) ... all return blank. 

I am on Time-Warner-Cable connection ... maybe they are filtering out :)

$ wget http://wiki.eclipse.org/Special:Userlogin

Looks like one of the front ends had a stale nfs mount and that was causing a 500 to be thrown.  I've fixed that and it seems to be happy now.

Just 'luck' that Time-Warner got the bad one, yeah that's the ticket. :)
