VITAS Posted November 1, 2016 Author Share Posted November 1, 2016 (edited) One Thread keept grabbing all the resources, so my conclution is: one host is bonbing the site with requests (maybe kspmods again?) I flushed the system but theres nothing i can do with the resources i have to hande that kind of load. But i will see if i can make firewall rules or throttel req/s Also my Internet at home is down since mid last week, so my response times are higher than usual. Bottom line: I know and i do what i can. Update: Found the person causing it. May the owner of http://wiki.kerbalspaceprogram.fr step forward and collect his bucket of blame? 250 000 Page requests in 24 h are a bit much Update 2: In addition to blocking the above until its resolved i tuned mod avasive. So if you get 403 forbidden trough normal usage please post here so i can raise the limit if needed.

Hello, sorry, I think it came from me, I don't know how, I haven't worked on it since some months (it has worked as this since one year). All the mod lookup is now disabled and I will work to see where this bug come from. Really sorry for the annoyance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VITAS Posted November 2, 2016 Author Share Posted November 2, 2016 (edited) Adblockers remove certain size images from webpages because these are the usual ad sizes. Images on SpaceDock are resized depending on your screensize, so if you are unlucky they have the exact same size as some banner ads and get removed by your adblocker. Note: SpaceDock has no Ads so its safe to add an exception for the site.(im all about protecting your data and not leaking it to other companys) Edited November 2, 2016 by VITAS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked at the wiki and it just looks like a normal wiki page. And would it really get that much traffic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VITAS Posted November 2, 2016 Author Share Posted November 2, 2016 (edited) I think its maintining a modlist or something. He did ask me a few mont ago for permition to use the SpaceDock API and allready wrote a PM. So i file it as misshab. Its also my fault for not having any throtteling for mass ammounts of req. from one IP. I now have that BTW If you have some root server and you keep dishing out http requests as fast as you can its simply called DOS (in this case unintentional) Edited November 2, 2016 by VITAS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before the disabling of the library it checks if a mod is updated or not and it takes the last link. A month ago we have worked on the cache of the wiki, perhaps it comes form this ... again sorry.

I now have that BTW If you have some root server and you keep dishing out http requests as fast as you can its simply called DOS (in this case unintentional) Yeah, the good from this is it fairly benignly highlighted the lack of throttling, and VITAS has used that new knowledge. And now spacedock has throttling. Worrying about "how could this have happened" is less important than how it's responded to. And everyone's responded very nicely. :-) The how it happened is now a technical issue with whatever script went loony. And not anything to do with spacedock. But will now be assisted because wiki.kerbalspaceprogram.fr should be able to tell if they're script is being daft earlier, based on hitting VITAS's throttling.

VITAS Posted November 2, 2016 Author Share Posted November 2, 2016 (edited) in other news: im happy to see a steady flow of $1 donations to come in. I guess its thanks to the efforts on facebook. So this is a good place to thank eveyone donating: you make SpaceDock beeing a thing I also want to ask everyone to do some publicity in their respective social bubbles (e.g. twitter, twitch,youtube,...) so i can continue to improve the site.

Superfluous J Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Kudos to everybody involved in this. Good to see it was just a simple mistake and then ended up making the site better, and great to see the "guilty party" come out clearly and honestly. These right here are why this community is so great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VITAS Posted November 3, 2016 Author Share Posted November 3, 2016 (edited) I can sum up this community and why i like it in two words: no mobbing Its always amazing to me how nice and understanding everyone is. Each time the Site has problems i get an unexpected flood of sympathy (and each time im expecting a mob raging about me beeing unable to give them what they want). It has to added this is a forum and they are normaly worse than the debian mailinglist I want to thank each one of you for keeping it that way. BTW im still all for a Kerbelcon to finaly meet a bunch of those great people (maybe some devs too as side effect). I would even organize it in my hometown Hamburg/Germany if i had official support by squad for it. (Maybe the community could ask for such a thing? You have a louder voice than i do) Other News: I just found the 1.2.1 release post so its now added to spacedock.

SmashingKirby148 Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 One minor annoyance is that we can't change the name of our mods after they've been uploaded. I guess I can see why, but what if we made a mistake in the title? Could this be added if possible? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VITAS Posted November 13, 2016 Author Share Posted November 13, 2016 Problem beeing that mod links,stats and the storage folders contain the name. Changing it would cause massive problems. I can only suggest making a new mod and deliting the old one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VITAS Posted November 13, 2016 Author Share Posted November 13, 2016 Im afraid so.We COULD simply change the mod name in the db and rename the folder but i fear braking everything so i rather not. But ill think about adding forwarders. So you could put a mod into forward mode and it automaticly would lead you to another one. So you could transfer control, change name and so on. But either way: you would have to reupload all files. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But now when I try to upload a different mod, I get an Internal Server Error after I hit publish. :S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
