EditGroups on Commons not showing info about recent batches (since late March)
trnstlntk opened this issue · comments
https://editgroups-commons.toolforge.org/ has been showing 'empty' batches since late March, although the edits/uploads have taken place there.
When going to some specific batches, e.g. linking from edit histories (example: Commons edits tagged with OpenRefine 3.7) the links sometimes produce 'Edit group xyz not found' (example)
Such an error page says something about the edit stream lag being 42 days?
Thanks for letting me know!
This is due because the numerical id of Commons edits has grown too big for EditGroups' database, so I am attempting a fix. It will make it possible to watch new batches in the future, but recovering the ones we have lost since the beginning of the outage would require more work (making it possible to backfill EditGroups via some edit dumps).
This is working again and I don't think there is a prospect of recovering missing edits in the affected batches so let's close this.
