Metabase looks to be down

[David Golden]

I haven't had time to investigate, but from the error I saw from
Bingos, we may have maxed out the resources that Amazon Web Services
will let us consumer in one namespace.

I'll explore if there's a quick fix, but it might have to wait until Monday.

In the mean time, please store your reports locally or just give those
smokers a summer holiday.

By the way, is there any interest in something like "Test::Reporter::Transport::MetabaseFallback"?
I have some preliminary realization of transport which tries to send report to Metabase and if there's any error, it
saves it in a file. If sending is successful, it also sends a small batch of saved reports if they exist in the file cache.
If anyone is interested, I can bundle it and release to CPAN.

I have uploaded metabase-relayd version 0.28 to CPAN which resolves this issue.

Thanks,

+1

I'd be willing to consider a patch directly for T::R::T::Metabase for
that. It shouldn't add any more dependencies and is less pain for
casual end-users so they don't have to think about it if/when Metabase
is down.

Thanks.

I take it that when all is sorted, all that I'll need to do will be to change offline=1 to offline=0 and restart metabase-relayd and all the queued items will be magically sent?

This would be splendid, especially if it's a drop-in replacement for the
normal T:R:T:Metabase requiring no extra config.
