Hi,
thanks for the reminder. I had completely forgotten about the token.
Probably because there is automation to auto-renew it, but maybe that
stops working after two years? The last problem was also in September.
For the record, on quantz.d.o, there is a file
/home/qa/qa-guest.salsatoken.README documenting the renewal:
https://salsa.debian.org/-/user_settings/personal_access_tokens
* Add new "legacy" token
* Scopes:
read_api
self_rotate
read_repository
Also automatically rotated via
/srv/qa.debian.org/data/cronjobs/salsa-rotate-token
I put a new token in place and it seems to be working again.
