Posting here, mainly because I'm not really sure where else to ask... I run a Fedora mirror (mirror.hiwaay.net). I noticed that I have been seeing a significantly higher HTTP request rate than normal. My mirror usually sees a couple of hundred requests per minute, but it has been running a steady 1500 requests per minute for most of today. It hit 4000 requests per minute around mid-day Wednesday (US Central time). I poked through the logs, and I see lots of requests for the file: /pub/fedora/linux/updates/17/x86_64/repodata/34881e74623de1754bf0e12f01884bea615fdcee05eded189f22d41bf9d4260b-other.sqlite.bz2 That file no longer exists; it was on my mirror from 21:12 Monday to 22:17 Tuesday. I see the same IP requesting that file (and getting a 404 error) a dozen times in less than a minute. I'm guessing there's either a yum bug or a broken repo push that is: - causing yum to try to fetch an out-of-date repodata file - causing it to try over and over again rapidly This is accounting for about a third of all requests to my mirror right now. -- Chris Adams <cmadams@xxxxxxxxxx> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
