Corrupt job report spamming

[sberger]

Hi Ryan, I started a new thread for the corrupted job report.

Slave X store the repository in cache, pick up a task, then start rendering that task…while the render is in progress a job gets deleted.
When the slave finish rendering it checks the job using his cache, but the job that got deleted (that exists in the slave cache) doesn’t exists in the repository anymore, so the slave sends a corrupted job email.

We’ll have to do some testing to see if we can reproduce these results. In the meantime, if you happen to stumble across the steps to reproduce, please let us know!

During the night my email got spammed with corrupted job reports… I had 1008 corrupted job report emails this morning!
looking at the time the email where sent, I can kinda see a patern. I received a bunch of mail around 10pm, then hundeds of email around 2am, again at 6:30 am.

I find it strange that the reports are all sent around the same time, then it gets quiet… then start again.

Could there be some network outages during those times? If part of the repository becomes unavailable for a certain period of time, that could result in jobs appearing corrupt.
