Fwd: Re: Please defer 'pushes'

FYI, this is why there have been no new postings today: ----- Forwarded message from Greg Newby <gbnewby(a)pglaf.org> ----- Date: Mon, 21 Dec 2020 21:01:55 -0800 From: Greg Newby <gbnewby(a)pglaf.org> To: pgww(a)lists.pglaf.org Subject: Re: Please defer 'pushes' Update: I'm sorry to say that aleph.pglaf.org still isn't recovered. If it's not back by morning (Pacific time, where the system is located), I'll remove aleph from the quorum so we can begin pushing again. Until then, pushed files *will* go to ibiblio and hence to www.gutenberg.org, but they will also generate hourly "pushed failure" messages in your inbox (as long as they are in the ../push/ folder). Sorry for this trouble. I think the colo center fixed the problem that took all our systems off the network, and didn't realize aleph had a separate issue. I've emailed them about it again (fourth time today, and four phone calls). - Greg On Mon, Dec 21, 2020 at 01:56:55PM -0800, Greg Newby wrote: > Update: Please continue to defer pushes.

Hi Greg, This hasn't been fixed yet. Today we have no covers showing in Facebook posts (although covers are available) for the following: https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/64055 https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/64047 https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/64048 This book has a cover and we can see the cover in Facebook today: https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/64054 Many thanks, Christine ------------------------------ Hi, Christine. Did this get fixed? I didn't see a response from Eric... If it persists, I can try sending a slack message. It would be helpful to have a specific example, so we can trace back to try to find out what happened. One thing that's going on is a bunch of rehabilitation of much older books - over 50 per hour. It's possible that is causing indigestion in the workflow, somewhere. Thanks!
