A few weeks ago we changed the indexer code so that it no longer used config files on disk - it's now all ran by database. One of the side effects was that our updated launcher, combined with database locking, resulted in situations where more than one indexer could load on a network.
Anyway, now that the problem has been defined, a solution has been put in place that makes it impossible for clones to happen. The launcher now selects all networks to be indexed in the next hour, and runs them sequentially. Only one launcher can run per hour, and it can't get confused since the list of networks is specified when it first starts. |
