BU Validation

Post by UBT - Chris »

Just a quick one - does anyone know what is happening with BU's validation - I have 31 tasks in for validation, and one of them is from over 24 hours ago!! I'm not sure why this is, but does anyone else have any info on it??

Thanks,
From Chris

Not sure if this post refers http://www.bitcoinutopia.net/bitcoinuto ... php?id=656 but it might explain things. I've got over 200 waiting validation as well.

However, it seems to be a recurring problem from a few months ago when we had a similar problem. Admins are on the case and reckon it should clear overnight - maybe.

The post you want is http://www.bitcoinutopia.net/bitcoinuto ... php?id=651

Basically, the validator was configured wrong so was marking all the campaign 8 WUs invalid when they were in fact correct. Henri/Reb have ran a command that have retrospectively marked them all as 'pending' and everything is going through the validator again.

It'll take time but as Mikee says, we've been here before :)

ahh - thanks - it looks like it is being solved now - I went to bed at midnight, with the backlog on 19.76 hours, then woke up 9 hours later to find it is now only 13.21 :)
