Hello,

Since November 4, 2025, none of our 11 secondary repositories are synchronizing with our main server.

Could you please help us with this?

We are available for any further information.

Thank you in advance.

Sincerely,

Good morning

Can you verify that your sync.json file is not corrupted on the server?

try the command:

Code: Select all

cat /var/www/sync.json |jq

The command "cat /var/www/sync.json | jq" appears to execute correctly. However, it's impossible to attach the file.

We tried deleting the sync.json file from a repository and restarting the synchronization from the console, but it doesn't seem to succeed.

Are you getting an error message?

When you force a sync, do you see anything?

In the task tab of the secondary repository, is anything happening?

Is there anything specific happening with this site?

There's been some news: the WAPT packet synchronization was completed on November 17th, which is today, so that's good news :D

The order:

Code: Select all

cat /var/www/sync.json | jq
There was no corrective action, was there? Or was it enough to fix it?

This command only does one cat, so no.

However, you did this, which takes time but generally works
