Updater stopped?

Post by MERBman »

Maybe I'm jumping the gun here, but the update queueueue stopped going and it's been at 107 for about 15 minutes and I think it may have stopped.

Maybe we can get this one early.

This seems to happen on Sunday/Monday updates most often. Since Lab Bratz updates Mondays, I've been hit hard by this a bunch of times. Maybe I should jump the gun and start updating on Saturdays :D .

It almost never happens to me because a Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday comic rather than a traditional Monday, Wednesday, Friday comic :P.

But yeah, none of the ComicGen comics I read updated today. I NEED MY FIX! :evil:

This has been happening to me as well. It's about noon now, so the updater is 12 hours late.

I've unclogged the updater. You should start seeing updates working at this time.

Yeah, trying to update just sends you to the back of the line. The updater will not be controlled. :o

Man, I wish I'd known that at 9:30 this morning when I went to manually update, before I knew what was wrong. I wonder if I'd be updated by now if I had just left the automatic updater alone... :-?

Looks like it might POSSIBLY be jammed again. It's stuck at 5579, and hasn't budged for about 10 minutes.

The queue doesn't seem stuck any more (it was definitely decreasing as I checked up on it). But my comic still hasn't updated :-?

Guess all I can do is wait.

Is this a regular occurence here? As in, often enough to warrant considering moving automatic updates to a day/time that isn't Sunday at midnight?

Doesn't happen much, or as much as it used to, but this is longer than it usually takes to refresh (mine still hasn't updated, and it's past five at night Central time.)---Al

I'm going to have to work on finding out if a comic is updating or not... and see about running more than one copy of AutoKeen at once. It looks like I can do it, but it's a bit risky.
