Hi, i have tried to read a lot of discussions to get back to the current state of discussion.
What i really don't understand is why i should not possible to set up a special sge execution host with ubuntu 14.04 and openjdk 8 as ppa.

Hi, sorry i am inactive atm and will not be able so access my tools in the next weeks.

Today dewiki has high replag since about 12 hours (>3hours replag).

Because my bot (dbuser s51826) also runs queries on linkwatcher_linklog if have checked statistics of my script. Mainly to exclude a deadlock problem or table locks caused by my script.

Btw: i am running funtoo/gentoo on my two year old laptop and emerging jdk8 with a clean compile cache uses about 6GB of ram, 7 GB temp space, but completes within 40 minutes and not 3.5 hours as mentioned in T121020#1870527

Are there any plans to support ubuntu 16.04 as sge execution nodes next year? If so the easiest solution would be to keep the ssl force exception for labs until this is available at tools.

Two additional reasons:
First one is caused by wikimedia plan to change to ssl only, please read my comment at T105794#1574563. So I need Java 1.8 to keep my bot working.

The new notification design looks horrible in modern skin with its grey rounded icon boxes. Also the boxes are too high to fit in the bBody navigation bar.

np_load_avg=1.810000 (= 0.060000 + 0.50 * 14.000000 with nproc=4) >= 1.75
= np_load_avg +  job_load_adjustments * [weight number of jobs started in the last 7,5 Minutes]

0,5 is job_load_adjustments shown in "qconf -ssconf"
14 is the sum of a new job number factor. If a new job is started is increased by 1. This value will decrease within 7.5 minutes (load_adjustment_decay_time) to 0 for each job. The sum of all these [0..1] values for jobs started in the last 7,5 Minutes is 14 in this case.

I am a java expert. And i am using a libary which normally needs java 1.8. I rewrote some parts, so that i can use the libary with java 1.7 on labs.
Problem is that this library in this limited rewrite version does not know ssl protocol, but i have added a trigger which adds ssl support when getting a redirect answer from server.
This was quite simply the implement, but rewriting the whole code the have full ssl support with java 1.7 is imo too much unnecessary work.
The first http request of my bot is always a sitematrix request on meta and then a http siteinfo request on local wikis. While doing these first requests the bot changes to https. So when doing the login action later my bot is already using https.

But host file is still missing the update

$ date && mysql -hazbwiki.labsdb

@Ricordisamoa Thx. Feature is now already added to my bot. Using this new parameter value does not show any error on old version. It is only useless until core is merge into wmf live version.

And currently again:

$ mysql -hs5.labsdb -vvve "select page_id, page_latest, cl_to from dewiki_p.page left join dewiki_p.categorylinks on page_id=cl_from where page_id IN(79660,165384,4948096)";
+---------+-------------+-------+

|  165384 |   142747515 | NULL  |
| 4948096 |   142743883 | NULL  |
+---------+-------------+-------+
3 rows in set (0.00 sec)

Same problem again after two rollbacks:

Because of these error i had to stop my bot last night. That is why i have now no updated list. But i can post you some old examples

Some scripts are still getting a lock timeouts on first run, but nothing in compare with the initial reported problem here.

database is up to date again:

$ mysql -hdewiki.labsdb -e "select rc_timestamp, now(), now()-rc_timestamp as lag from recentchanges order by rc_timestamp desc limit 1;" dewiki_p
+----------------+---------------------+-----+
| rc_timestamp   | now()               | lag |

I don't know who or what solved this problem but it does not exists anymore, so i am closing this bug.

see also T75493 for the same problem with s5 as source database cluster

Ok, but the dns problem still exists:
