I received notifications when I logged in at about 3am Eastern that a user I was following had posted several lists. I opened all of the lists from the notifications, and half of them came up 404. I assumed the user had deleted those pages, and moved on.
I'm now working on my own lists, and have encountered the similar problems:
Bringing up old lists, some text may be missing, but a refresh (sometimes multiple refreshes) makes the missing text pop up. It appears to be affecting just text that I added in after the initial save.
If I save a list, it might show me what I just typed in the text field at the top of the list, or it might show me what was there previously. It might take several refreshes of the page to get it to show what it is supposed to. I encountered this on an old list that I use for workspace all the time. The old text that it kept defaulting to was from something I put in the workspace yesterday.
I made a new list, and when I saved it, it came up 404. Multiple refreshes would not show me the list. I backspaced to the workfield, went to the Lists tab, and the list was not showing. It took multiple refreshes to get the new list to finally show at the top of the Lists. Clicking on the link for the new list, it went 404 again. A few more refreshes, and the list finally showed. I encountered the problem again both with edits to the list, and with trying to add comment fields to the list after the list was saved. It took several attempts, but I was finally able to get everything added.
I'm (obviously) not sure what happened. Since 2010, through multiple site owners, multiple site reboots, and multiple site bugs, Lists have consistently remained problem-free. I don't know yet if this bug is just affecting lists, as I haven't tried Blog or Forum posts, but the fact that is affecting Lists at all is concerning.
Thanks for all you do, and for trying to keep things from going kablooey! -cbishop
