Re: I see only two CPAN-Testers reports on the server from the many I have sent - what is wrong?
David, Thanks for the clarification. Since I there is no longer the direct mirror of cpan-testers responses, I think wait and see is the best I can do for diagnostics. One other question: if a module lists a developers release of another module as a requirement, will CPAN or CPANPLUS try to build the module (even though it is not a stable release, or will some sort of error (or worse, no information at all...)

CPAN/CPANPLUS can't install development versions because they aren't indexed. I *think* they will install the latest stable, then complain that the prerequisite couldn't be satisfied. Because the prerequisite could not be satisfied, no CPAN Testers report will be sent on failure. (PASS reports would be sent, though.) If the dependency bumps to a stable release higher than the development version you've listed, then everything works as normal again. Specifying a development release as a prerequisite is a sort of halfway measure to indicate that whatever is stable on CPAN is not enough, but in a way that will work fine once the development version becomes the new stable. Unless the toolchain is updated to allow *distributions* and not *modules* to be listed as prerequisites, this is pretty much the best that can be done.

Re: I see only two CPAN-Testers reports on the server from the many I have sent - what is wrong?
So this means that truncation cannot explain why almost all of my test reports from last week disappeared: I installed Test::Reporter and CPAN::Reporter only days before sending, so they should be up to date. But maybe perl.org's blackhole really was the cause. On Fri, Oct 16, 2009 at 10:31 AM, Barbie bar...@missbarbell.co.uk wrote: Not necessarily. If the report exceeds the byte limit it gets truncated.

Re: I see only two CPAN-Testers reports on the server from the many I have sent - what is wrong?
Hi-this may be a related issue. Two modules I have been working with recently, PDL and OpenGL, seem to have very few testing hits since the end of August except for the ones generated by our own developers and testers. This has been particularly frustrating as we get down to the finish for a new PDL release (and accompanying OpenGL) since the test reports for multiple OSes which used to come in seem to have vanished. Bugs from the previous tester results have been addressed but without those platform tests, we have no way to know if that has fixed things. * How can I determine the testers events for a given module? * By date (Is the rate of testing consistent over time?) * By tester ID (Some of the old stand-bys for testing PDL and OpenGL, no longer show. Are PDL and OpenGL out of the rotation or is there something broken somewhere?) * Is there any way too access any regularly updated feed of tester results? * When the cpan-testers list had email to authors, it was easy to track anomalies since a systematic problem would change the character and pace of tester reports received * I guess I could try setting up a mysql server and try downloading the entire database but that seems like a sort of nuclear option. * Does it matter whether a module is released by the Owner or a Co-maintainer for CPAN Tester to work? * One other thing I am trying to work through is some sort of quick set up info for CPAN::Reporter or Test::Reporter so that it works. My own experience is that the perl of both modules works well, the sticking point for me is how to set up the mail feed---especially since most ISP and mail providers have moved to TLS type security which is tricky to configure. (e.g. I have a gmail account and have yet to succeed in sending a test report through that channel) Thoughts appreciated! Chris Marshall (PDL and OpenGL developer) O.

Re: I see only two CPAN-Testers reports on the server from the many I have sent - what is wrong?
Hello David, thank you very much for your immediate reply! Ralf Engelschall (of mod_rewrite fame, among other famous projects) uses a very strict spamfilter on his machine (on which I get my emails to s...@engelschall.com), in which even Google mail is blacklisted as a spammer (can you imagine)! That's probably why your email was rejected. For the same reason I have already changed the email address in all of my modules and on CPAN from s...@engelschall.com to st...@cpan.org. The latter forwards all emails to s...@engelschall.com, but this works because cpan.org is not blacklisted as a spammer (yet?!). And anyhow, in this way I can easily change the email address st...@cpan.orgis forwarding to, in case of need, without the users even needing to know. The two reports from me which actually show on the server are the following: http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/2009/10/msg5520288.html http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/2009/10/msg5525770.html My configuration (perl -V) was also in the attachment CPAN-Testers.tar.gz in my previous email. As is a list of test reports (reports-sent.db from CPAN::Reporter) which were definitely sent. BTW, I am aware of the time lag between sending a report and the moment it is reflected on the server. But my reports are now over a week old, and still nothing (I checked again today)! Interestingly, I found my name among the statistics on the server: http://stats.cpantesters.org/mtesters.html (search for kabelfoon in the table and you'll find me) So it seems that the server does indeed know me (and the email address sbe...@kabelfoon.nl I am sending my test reports from, which is from my provider, which provides me with the SMTP-server necessary to send the reports). This apparent contradiction mystifies me! But yes, maybe the black hole on www.perl.org caused my reports to be dropped. That would explain it. Since this black hole is now supposedly fixed, I will try to re-run some builds tonight, and we'll see what happens! In any case, thanks a lot for your support!

When did you submit the reports? If you look at the status grid on the home page of the CPAN Testers Reports website [1], it has a date which is the oldest request in the system that hasn't been processed. As the site can take over 5 days to do a complete rebuild, it isn't unusual for some pages to not appear for several days, particularly if it is for a distribution that is not as popular as others. If after 5 days you still haven't seen the reports listed, send me an email with the IDs and I'll investigate. [1] http://www.cpantesters.org Or is it because test reports from module authors for their own modules are filtered out? No module author has the ability to filter any reports from the system. Neither do I see any of these test reports on two separate email accounts which I both subscribed to the cpan-testers mailing list. The cpan-testers mailing is unattended, and you no longer need to subscribe to the list as everyone can post to the list. As such if you do not receive an error message, then you have been subscribe successfully. The mailing list is now just a post only interface to the NNTP list. Hope that helps.

Or if one is on irc.perl.org IRC network join #cpantesters channel where one of the GumbyNET bots is streaming realtime updates from the NNTP group.

Re: I see only two CPAN-Testers reports on the server from the many I have sent - what is wrong?

Here is a possible problem: http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/2009/10/msg5477314.html tested a cygwin platform for perl 5.8.8 on Oct 3 which does not show in the cygwin column of the chart at http://matrix.cpantesters.org/?dist=DBIx-Class+0.08112 Note that the matrix and the main reports site are two different systems. Although Slaven uses the feeds from the reports site. However, the report you mention is on the reports site and is in the DB. The only oddity, which might cause it to not appear in the matrix listing, is that it has a perl version of 0. This is due to the automated process not being able to extract the perl version from the report itself.

2009/10/16 Barbie bar...@missbarbell.co.uk Hi Steffen, http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/2009/10/msg5520288.html http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/2009/10/msg5525770.html The two above are the only ones in the system you've submit for the MSWin32 platform, but there are 157 others that are for FreeBSD. Would that be correct? If the others you've highlighted are also for MSWin32, they don't appear to have been listed within the NNTP listings. I guess the mails must have got blocked. The ones I've highlighted were indeed from the MSWin32 platform. As an aside, it is true that I have also sent loads of reports from FreeBSD. I have resent those from the MSWin32 platform yesterday evening: # Generated by CPAN::Reporter 1.1708 test PASS Carp-Clan-6.00 (perl-5.10.1) MSWin32-x86-multi-thread 5.1 test PASS Bit-Vector-7.1 (perl-5.10.1) MSWin32-x86-multi-thread 5.1 test PASS Date-Calc-6.0 (perl-5.10.1) MSWin32-x86-multi-thread 5.1 test PASS Date-Pcalc-6.0 (perl-5.10.1) MSWin32-x86-multi-thread 5.1 test PASS Data-Locations-5.5 (perl-5.10.1) MSWin32-x86-multi-thread 5.1 test PASS Math-MatrixBool-5.8 (perl-5.10.1) MSWin32-x86-multi-thread 5.1 test PASS Set-IntRange-5.2 (perl-5.10.1) MSWin32-x86-multi-thread 5.1 test PASS Date-Calc-6.1 (perl-5.10.1) MSWin32-x86-multi-thread 5.1 Let's see what happens with them now.
