AFAS problems

EHM-0654 Murray:
This is kind of a thread split from the web server migration topic specifically for the AFAS problem.

I want to let everyone know that I'm working on this as my #1 priority, but in testing the new copy of the script that I'm working on, a number of pilots may have received multiple copies of the AFAS email earlier today (for which I apologise)

EHM-1612 Paolo:
Hi Murray, I received the first email this morning, I sent you an email about that too.
The email is from euroharm@box253.bluehost.com
Thank you for your hard work :8 ;)

EHM-0654 Murray:
More news.

I think I'm getting close to a "solution" on this one. As such I'd like to propose that AFAS almost "starts anew" with a first manual run (fired off by me) to all current, valid subscribers containing a new flight 'set'.

I'll finish my local testing fairly soon and be in a position to migrate the script onto the server, where I'll run a "live test" (as real, just with the DB updates and emailing disabled), then I'll do the actual manual run... In all, it should all finish later this evening.

UPDATE: The final test run has completed successfully: the script kept going and everyone that should have been processed was. I'll fire the real run off at 1700Z+1 and everyone should have their first new AFAS emails by 2000Z+1.

Please, can I get confirmations here from as many subscribers as possible that you've received your copies (top of my head, Maarten, Phil Nutt, Paolo, Jordi...)? I know I got mine (a first for me...) but one is not a representative sample.

EHM-1365 Ben:
Hi Murray

When you said 'final test run', was it the final test? Should I still be getting a new e-mail every 3 hours since 1700z+1?

EHM-0654 Murray:
Ben (everyone in fact) - I'm not entirely sure why it's happening, but I'm pretty sure that a lot of these are queued messages from quite some time ago that my fixes to the AFAS script has somehow kicked off. I only ran three/four tests yesterday, yet I've received a good half-dozen emails (and I thought I had disabled the email sending/DB updating during those test runs).
