Wikipedia:Refill/restart

Sometimes reFill gets stuck, for no known reason. Typically, it will get as far as displaying "waiting for an available worker" or "Submitting your task..." but no further.

Procedure to restart

Access needed

This procedure can be carried out by any of the maintainers listed here. If you have appropriate skills and wish to be added as a maintainer, please contact Curb Safe Charmer.

Accessing toolforge

You will need a Wikimedia developer account, an SSH public key and to have been added as a maintainer (see above).

You will need an SSH client such as PuTTY.

Log in to login.toolforge.org via SSH.

Commands once logged in

There are two projects, refill which is the web front-end and refill-api. It is invariably the api that gets stuck.

Become refill-api

webservice restart

./restart.sh

You could also try:

kubectl delete -f worker-deployment.yml

kubectl apply -f worker-deployment.yml
