Description Dominique Leuenberger 2010-06-03 15:13:06 UTC 
Situation: running an own instance of OBS, having the base distributions defined in project openSUSE.org with a remoteurl to api.opensuse.org/public.

Every once in a while, a big bnch of my builds fail, and the build log only shows:

> osc bl 11.2 i586
504 remote error: remote error  Gateway Time-Out

The gateway that timed out was reaching api.opensuse.org.

This is a major issue as it requires manual re-triggering of those packages. The scheduler probably needs a state like "R" (retrying), and while there is already a watch on api.opensuse.org/public anyway, it could trigger those packages for Scheduling again once the api is back online / reachable.

usually the scheduler/src server should do a reconnect in this situation.
