| Summary | 0010827: TOPS/CHF test instance taler.hacktivism.ch down | ||||
| Description | ...just realized a few hours ago; checking what's going on. While I'm monitoring my.taler-ops.ch to be certainly online, I didn't do the same for taler.hacktivism.ch, which is not highly problematic, as it's test and not prod, but still not nice if someone wants to test. | ||||

Oups, container intentionally closed for maintenance (base sys upgrade), neither upgrading base sys by then nor starting the container... ehm, yeah; as seen in screen session -- sorry for downtime, sleep helps, also now! :) "hernani@koopa:~> podman stop taler-hacktivism WARN[0010] StopSignal SIGTERM failed to stop container taler-hacktivism in 10 seconds, resorting to SIGKILL taler-hacktivism hernani@koopa:~> podman ps CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES hernani@koopa:~>" |
