COIBot XWiki report format issue

Hello. COIBot seems no to like https for a reason and keeps adding the protocol as a Link to blacklist. See e.g. User:COIBot/XWiki/jennycasino.com. Is this something you can fix on COIBot config? Thank you. Best regards, —MarcoAurelio (talk) 11:04, 23 March 2022 (UTC)

@MarcoAurelio no, that is something that gets picked up due to wrong formatted links in edits which I should manually kill in the db, and try again to stop detecting in the bot. Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} (en: U, T) 04:14, 24 March 2022 (UTC)

XWiki report page not updating

Hello. Hope that everything is okay. User:COIBot/XWiki hasn't been updated since June 20. If you have a minute, could you please see what may be the cause? Thank you. Best regards, —MarcoAurelio (talk) 16:47, 10 July 2022 (UTC)

@MarcoAurelio, it’ll be next week, sorry. Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} (en: U, T) 14:34, 11 July 2022 (UTC)

gudn tach!

the poking via User:COIBot/Poke does not work for the last few weeks. is the poking still activated? or am i doing anything wrong? -- seth (talk) 22:23, 20 September 2022 (UTC)

gudn tach!

if you don't have time at the moment: is it possible to get access to COIBot's database in order to make queries by myself? (i guess, i asked that already a few years ago, but i don't remember the answer, sorry.) -- seth (talk) 21:38, 6 November 2022 (UTC)

gudn tach!

can you make a prediction as to when you will have time to take care of said problem again? is there any way i can support you? -- seth (talk) 08:37, 12 November 2022 (UTC)

Notice of review of adminship

Hello Beetstra. In accordance with Meta:Administrators/Removal and because you have made fewer than ten logged administrator actions over the past six months, your adminship is under review at Meta:Administrators/Removal/October 2022. If you would like to retain your adminship, please sign there before October 08, 2022. Kind regards, MF-W 11:55, 1 October 2022 (UTC)

@MF-Warburg way more than ten. Can we please properly update the instructions, this does come back over and over. Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} (en: U, T) 03:59, 2 October 2022 (UTC)

Where are the ten actions? I only see 6 edits to the spam blacklist. --MF-W 16:32, 2 October 2022 (UTC)

@MF-Warburg oops, I now see it is 6 months, I thought it was a year. Anyway, I’d prefer to keep as I do still work on it. Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} (en: U, T) 03:59, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

That is of course no problem at all! Thanks for your work on the SBL. --MF-W 11:55, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

COIBot has fallen out of IRC

Hiya. If you have a chance, would you please put COIBot back into IRC and doing its business. I am not near a functioning SSH login at this time. Thanks if you can.  — billinghurst sDrewth 10:54, 11 October 2022 (UTC)

@Billinghurst I wasn’t either, i have a ‘new’ laptop, they changed bastion, and I have no time. Anyway, they are back up now. Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} (en: U, T) 04:06, 7 November 2022 (UTC)

COIBot repeatedly getting logged out of projects

Tracked in Phabricator:
Task T325867

Tracked in Phabricator:
Task T325869

Hey Beetstra, hope you're well — just letting you know about T325867, and that COIBot seems to be getting repeatedly logged out? — TheresNoTime (talk • they/them) 03:40, 23 December 2022 (UTC)

Oh also, I have requested access to the linkwatcher VPS project in this phab task and would welcome any comments — TheresNoTime (talk • they/them) 03:48, 23 December 2022 (UTC)

COIBot was logged out of meta and chiming in on irc that it was the case. A soft reboot of the instance just seem to have been totally ineffective as there is now no IRC either. I still haven't figured out my bastion access since they killed the access via the tools bastion.  — billinghurst sDrewth 05:28, 24 December 2022 (UTC)

@Billinghurst: I feel remiss asking if you'd do this without waiting for Beetstra's "OK" (as requested at T325869), but if you're unable to SSH into any of the instances using this guide (or this guide if you use Windows/PuTTY), and deem this urgent enough, you can add me directly using Horizon and I will take a look — this page allows you to "Add Member" (my account name is samtar) — TheresNoTime (talk • they/them) 20:08, 24 December 2022 (UTC)

@TheresNoTime@Billinghurst I have added Samtar as a projectadmin. You can have a look, but I expect that COIBot has eaten its cookies, so I would need to explain you how to log COIBot back in on the shell (and also explain it for XLinkBot) - it is a matter of running the perl script with a parameter for both, that logs in and stops. Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} (en: U, T) 05:15, 25 December 2022 (UTC)

Thank you I've got COIBot back, will do the same for XLinkBot shortly — TheresNoTime (talk • they/them) 05:45, 25 December 2022 (UTC)

@TheresNoTime Thanks! (I'll better not ask what you hacked to get it done :-) ). Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} (en: U, T) 06:14, 25 December 2022 (UTC)
