Lisa worked through the www.gnu.org side of the problem and found a process stuck holding the lock file busy.  This prevented further processes from being able to get the lock and make progress.

Clearing the processes on www.gnu.org to release the lock and restarting all of it allowed the update-cvs.sh script to work again.  There were a handful of other web page updates pending too.  This allowed them all to be updated again.  I have verified that the soc-projects web page now has current information.

A task has been queued to have the update-cvs.sh script detect and report when it has stale locks.  This should avoid this type of problem in the future.  It might happen again but then it will notify and the problem will get fixed sooner.

Marking the ticket as closed since things seem to be resolved.

Sure. Note that it had only been 2h45m since your last update and that was during sleepy time on this side of the planet.

The update trigger joins up to FSF systems and there the Savannah folks like Karl and myself lose visibility.  I have engaged the FSF admins to dig into that side of things.

I still don't see the same version I have committed:

http://web.cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewvc/soc-projects/ideas-2016.html?revision=1.9&root=soc-projects&view=markup

and it is different than:

http://www.gnu.org/software/soc-projects/ideas-2016.html

As you can see ideas for LibertyEiffel and Gnucap.

hi giuseppe - i ran the curl command to try to trigger the update for soc-projects at gnu.  if something still not updated, please say what specifically and i'll try again.  if that doesn't work, have to ask sysadmin.  -k

I pushed few changes to soc-projects/ideas-2016.html but the updates didn't get propagated to the web page.

I have noticed that the "Triggering webpages update..." hook message took longer than usual.
