[Iplant-api-dev] Agave server may be acting hinky

[Martha Narro]

Hi All,

Andrew Predoehl (copied) reported the problem described below to support. I’m moving it to this list so the right people see it.

==== From Andrew Predoehl =========

You might be (painfully?) aware of this, but in case not:

The Agave API server at agave.iplantc.org seems to be acting a bit
squirrelly.  I tried to submit two jobs, using some static files
containing JSON, and using the "jobs-submit" script.  Each failed, and
I stubbornly just re-submitted using the same file -- no
modifications.  Each eventually worked.  That seems weird, so I
thought you folks might want to know about it.


Here's a transcript, with the responses and error messages from the
jobs-submit script.

# JOB 1, attempt 1 -- fails mysteriously.
login2.stampede(175)$ jobs-submit -F run_ties_minimal.json
Expecting , delimiter: line 1 column 49 (char 49)
<am:fault xmlns:am="http://wso2.org/apimanager"><am:code>101507</am:code><am:type>Status
report</am:type><am:message>Runtime
Error</am:message><am:description>Error in
Sender</am:description></am:fault>

# JOB 1, attempt 2 -- success, with the very same input file.
login2.stampede(176)$ jobs-submit -F run_ties_minimal.json
Successfully submitted job 0001434497420792-5056a550b8-0001-007

# JOB 2, attempt 1 -- fails mysteriously like job 1
login2.stampede(177)$ jobs-submit -F run_ties_basic_complete.json
Expecting , delimiter: line 1 column 49 (char 49)
<am:fault xmlns:am="http://wso2.org/apimanager"><am:code>101507</am:code><am:type>Status
report</am:type><am:message>Runtime
Error</am:message><am:description>Error in
Sender</am:description></am:fault>

# JOB 2, attempt 2 -- also fails
login2.stampede(178)$ jobs-submit -F run_ties_basic_complete.json
Unable to contact api server at https://agave.iplantc.org/jobs/v2/

# JOB 2, attempt 3 -- success, and my input is unchanged.
login2.stampede(179)$ jobs-submit -F run_ties_basic_complete.json
Successfully submitted job 0001434497509094-5056a550b8-0001-007


Thanks!  Again, I'm just letting you know in the hope that this is
helpful debugging information -- I do not need any assistance on this
matter.  Let me know if you have questions.
