Hi all. Several of you have reported problems with fedia.io not federating with other instances correctly.

The cause is that rabbitmq crashed, but not all the way. It crashed to the point where new connections would timeout, but the service was still running such that it wouldn't auto restart. I will be creating some automation to detect that proactively and restart rabbitmq if/when it happens again.

Seems to be busted again already.

ok - the queues are processing again. I will work on a more permanent fix after dinner

Sorry to nag, but it looks like it might be acting up again lol. Doesn't look like any sync has happened for 5 hours.

Thank you for all your hard work. I am experiencing the same problem, and was just browsing Fedia Discussions to see if anyone else had reported it. Again, thanks!

It’s almost caught up. My apologies. I am trying to get it fixed permanently.

It's appreciated! <3

While you're working on a more permanent fix, is there a preferred way we should let you know about hiccups like this? Or is pinging you in a thread in this magazine sufficient?

be aware that this is fixed now

Note that even once I get this fixed, there will inevitably be another problem crop up. Posting here is fine, but an email to [email protected] or a ping to @[email protected] (my mastodon account) would probably be faster (note, when federation breaks here, messages to @[email protected] wouldn't get through from fedia.io...

Cool, thanks for the prompt work.
