For some reason the update script doesn't work properly anymore. I restored the database from yesterdays backup, and I'm working on a solution.

Can't find what's wrong, the update script hasn't changed, but today it started looping (it runs through the entire script, then seems to restart it), resulting in all zeros on the boards. I had to add a extra line with an error in it to stop the script at the end. Don't know why, I suspect it's a setting on the server or something. (To top it of: the last attempt today the script stopped prematurely??. Stats are OK though.)

Murphy fooled me good! I finally found the error: I'm forced to use WGET to run my script (the server doesn't allow me to run scripts from the command line) and WGET times out after 15 minutes. After SETI came back online, the script also has to parse the SETI XML files and runs far longer then 15 minutes. Result: 1:WGET times out, 2:default number of retries is 20, 3:it tries to run the script again. I changed the settings on WGET and all is well again. Till next time Murphy!
