The problem Thomas is when we have a problem like earlier and people report an issue, many users will go and try to see if there is an issue or if it is fixed. This can make the problem worse. Similarly when we post a problem has been fixed, many people go and test the system again pushing up the load.
Checking myself I noticed there were some things not right. This resulted in lots of failed requests and queued jobs. All in all things were not happy. After a lot of digging and looking at what was happening I performed a deeply technical fix on the task running on api server #2 and things look like they are OK.
At this point can I remind you of a line Tom Hanks says in the film Apollo 13. Hanks is playing Cmdr. Jim Lovell and the crew have just fabricated a Heath Robinson adapter to fix a square Lithium Dioxide container into a round hole to filter out Carbon Dioxide. Hanks’ character notices the other 2 crew are breathing very shallowly and he says “Just breathe normally guys…” and everything works.
So I would say, the DB etc. should be working fine, but just use it normally. Upload logs etc. but don’t all rush to test it to see if it is fixed. M’kay? And for your info, I’m watching what is happening so I’ll be able to see who didn’t do as asked.
