guys is anyone able to authenticate anything on TEST16?
I logged in with one of my accounts and the Auth pops up for browser & my web apps, BUT NOTHING SUCCESSFULLY AUTHENTICATES never ever and keeps showing zero total things authenticated.
A refresh was triggered from the browser after one minute. But new content is only available after a duration between 1 mn 10 and 1 mn 30 (every minute is programmed but the generation takes longer). When same content was received I was retriggering refresh every 400ms.
If many people display this page permanently, then this could generate a lot of GET requests on the network. I am not sure, but it’s possible that I have launched a DDoS attack through a popular site!
In doubt, to reduce the number of GETs, I have relaunched a new version in which the first refresh is triggered after 1 mn 15 and then every 4 seconds until new content appears (instead of 400ms). The site address is the same (safe://constellations2) but if the page is already opened you’ll have to refresh the page explicitly to take the new timings into account.
No, it’s just because we are focusing on the Mutable Data integration now, as explained in last week’s dev update.
Also, we were planning to take down Test 16 at the end of last week (see this post), but we ended up leaving it up for a few more days because we forgot to take it down
Video with accelerated version of safe://galaxy and safe://constellations sites is on YouTube.
There are strange periods with many nodes always appearing and disappearing in a specific section. Some examples are:
section 000 from 2017-04-06 22:42:18 to 23:00:28
section 110 from 2017-04-08 18:38:36 to 21:07:17
section 0011 from 2017-04-09 21-31-59 to 23-30-25 (the whole life of this section).
section 010 from 2017-04-11 20:56:42 to 2017-04-12 02:15:35.
I don’t know if this due to an external attack, a bug in MaidSafe code or if the message I used is not supposed to always return true section definitions. If someone from MaidSafe wants to analyze with real node ids, source raw data files are stored on GitHub.
Note: Test 16 was probably the last one where I could publish sites like safe://galaxy and safe://constellations because:
The message I used has been removed (see this post)
the POST requests are not free anymore (each one will cost 2 units from account balance, see this post)
That was tempting, but I can see you have resisted a long time before killing your vault, because section 0100 had 8 nodes for a long time (more than 3 days, from 2017-04-08 15:27:01 to 2017-04-11 20:56:42).
Guilty, Sir. The truth, I only check the constellation site a few times and only in one begin to count how many nodes was in my section. Too tempting for a weak soul…
To my defence, you are half culprit to give us so powerful tool.
