Bot is not running

"Last Checked" and "Last Inflated" are now "4 days ago" for all mods; normally the maximum is 3-4 hours. Based on feedback in #5994, this appears to be because NetKAN-bot is not running.

NetKAN pull requests and SpaceDock have special web hooks to update metadata as changes are made, so such changes would still go out as normal, but mods hosted on GitHub or Curse are stuck.

@techman83, are you the one to check bot status?

I believe the bot is now running again:

I see the new DestructionEffects, KDEX, and RealFuels in a pull of CKAN-meta.
Closing.

It turned out to be that the netkan git tree had corrupted, I just removed it and it carried on its merry way.

In other news PAXAus was amazing!

Cheers, confirmed working. Quick question though - if I follow the links on the Netkan-bot-status page to KDEX, there's an "x_netkan_override" section in the netkan file for it. Where's that from, and what does it do, considering CKAN correctly shows the latest version..

The x_netkan_override was put there to force KDEX v1.04 to have a greater range of KSP compatibility than the included .version file listed (it ended up having a very large range of compatibility). x_netkan_override clauses are specific to particular versions of a mod and are used to set exceptions to the defined metadata and avoid having to keep changing the main .netkan info.
