[00:28:10] <Bytram> Actually, the story did get submitted... the problem seems to have arisen when it was trying to update the storybot page on the Wiki.

[12:56:05] <Bytram> chromas: I am aware that multiple links could be put in one =submit but I wanted to give the editor of which story (or stories) they wanted to use or merge. I 'spose that could be done with all the stories in a huge, single submission. I like to keep separated things separate, I guess.

[13:22:43] * Bytram had his lappy go crash yesterday. At first, the monitor went completely black... but the lappy seemed to still be up and running. Hmmm. Took my mobile phone, went to IRC using the browser interface link from the main page, and sent a msg to my nick. Figured that if I heard something, that meant that *something* was still running, right? Hit send... and lappy *immediately* stopped and rebooted from BIOS. Strange!

[13:52:04] <chromas> A dirty dozen? Is that metric?
[13:53:24] <janrinok> there is a 15 minute difference in the minutes field - I haven't got a clue how that happens. Does Windows use NTP to keep its clock accurate?
[13:53:48] <chromas> Yes but it uses Microsoft servers
[13:54:04] <janrinok> so does it even give you the correct day?
[13:54:21] <chromas> Well there are some timezones that are 15 minutes offset

[14:24:56] <Bytram> janrinok: chromas: cmn32480: The bot being "off" by 15 minutes is likely from the bot running approximately 15 minutes past each hour. Do a "/join #exec" and wait for the bot to do its thing.

[15:18:24] <RandomFactor> is it a farm? Maybe a bad node

[15:20:14] <janrinok> OK, I understand now. I thought you had found a bug in StoryBot but it is a bug in the wiki. As I maintain Storybot I thought that it was making bad submissions to the queue.
[15:20:45] <janrinok> The php reference confused me because it is written in Python

[19:30:31] <Bytram> RandomFactor: I've see that happen, too. Usually goes away after a minute or two. My *guess* is that there is some kind of conflict with two different parties trying to do something to the same thing at once? You might find it helpful here on IRC to: "/join #exec" and "/join #debug"
[19:55:49] <cmn32480> there is no help for exec unless somebody want to look at his buggy ass php code.
[21:01:13] <Bytram> cmn32480: no complaints here... I *have* looked at the code. Let's just say it is not written the way I would have laid things out.
