Rule QA VM is mostly OK now…

But it seems like it's not dealing with the long period choked.

Is everyone able to upload or did I break something?

Still not seeing your submissions.

John

sorry was my fault :-) I changed the time when the server is powered-up
but forgot to adjust the time in cron. So the job in cron was before
the time the system was powered-up, therefore never run. As the system
is powered-down by the plugin-timer that started the server, the job
was never triggered.
Now added the job to a systemd timer with OnBootSec set to 20min after
power-up to avoid such "features" in future :-)

Additionally I manually started the job once, should be finished around
12 o'clock (CET)

Cheers

Is it also reporting the success/failure of the upload of the results?

Fingers crossed.

John,

I see that my corpus is not part of the masscheck atm. My server claims
that masscheck passed every evening/night (starting at 21:00 CET). My
corpus should be by far big enough to give the missing 10k ;-)

Cheers

I'm uploading successfully too.

Unfortunately we're about 10k short of the minimum spam threshold, so 
masscheck is NOT advancing the SVN commit - we've been stuck on 1935146 
since the mitigation.

This seems like an error in the masscheck scripting; I would assume the 
snapshot should advance even on starvation, but if we can get some more 
spam from _somewhere_ we should be able to get past it.

Bill

looks better to me as at least "20260612-r1935146-n" shows my corpus
again :-) It hadn't been shown since somewhen beginning June.
