Web browser: --- Bug ID: 46476 Summary: Running dispatchChanges as cronjob doesn't close down as expected Product: MediaWiki extensions Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: Unprioritized Component: WikidataRepo Assignee: wikidata-b...@lists.wikimedia.org Reporter: jeb...@gmail.com CC: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org, wikidata-b...@lists.wikimedia.org Classification: Unclassified Mobile Platform: --- When dispatchChanges.php is run as a cronjob it seems like it (as least sometimes) doesn't close down as expected, and then doesn't release the database connections. After a while MySQL then runs out of free connections, and then Mediawiki and other processes on the server grinds to a halt. Either a PID-file should be used to stop new processes from starting, or a proper close should be done, or a proper daemon should be made. Restarting new processes from crontab without knowing if the previous ones are properly closed is bad. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
