(2014-09-19) Moin Cache Crash

I ran my MoinMoin-file-purge script to keep my file-count down at Blue Host. Then MoinMoin wouldn't run anymore!

Every request: get page back with An unhandled exception was thrown by the application.

Static pages still run fine.

Checking /tmp/moin.log always shows the error as: {{{ INFO 2014-09-19 07:38:26,836 MoinMoin.web.contexts:128 <http://webseitz.fluxent.com/cgi-bin/moin.fcgi/wiki/Republican National Convention In Nyc/RK%3D0/RS%3DGeq9MV2w9mZfUqVBiNIu4xwGeV4-> ERROR 2014-09-19 07:38:26,837 MoinMoin.wsgiapp:292 An exception has occurred [http://webseitz.fluxent.com/cgi-bin/moin.fcgi/wiki/Republican National Convention In Nyc/RK%3D0/RS%3DGeq9MV2w9mZfUqVBiNIu4xwGeV4-].

Went into ~/moin-1.9.2/wiki/wiki/data/cache/wiki/surgeprotect - found a bunch of surge-log* files - deleted them all.

Now all good!
