I set up an account last night, added my first 8 sites and it all went perfectly.

This morning, no matter which site I try to add (I have about 3-5 more sites to add), it never adds it to my account. Initially, I get the "adding new website" announcement at the top (with the correct site/url info below it). Then, when I eventually refresh the page, the announcement disappears, but the new site is not there.

The first one or two I tried today gave me an error code at the bottom of the dashboard (think one was 200 and the other was 503). I had gotten the 200 code yesterday for a couple sites, but that seemed to clear out on its own after a couple minutes (I figured I was just overanxious and refreshed too early before it fully synched). Today, the errors just disappeared (along with the sites). I do know why the one site is giving a 503 (site is in maintenance mode for dev purposes), so I'm not so worried about that (had planned on trying the basic authentication work-around for that), but thought I'd mention it in case that's somehow causing issues. The other site (that got the 200 error before disappearing) is a fully live, public site.

I've disabled, uninstalled and removed the directory in the modules folder for one of the sites as a test (the one with the 200 error code that is a live, public site) and then I reinstalled, re-enabled and clicked to add the site. Got the "adding new website" dialog again and the same thing happened -- it just disappeared. I even logged out and back in to drupalstatus.org to see if there was any difference and so far, same result.

Any thoughts on what I can try to get this to work for the remainder of the sites? I can't think of anything that I've done differently. Oh, I wasn't initially logged in to the drupalstatus.org site this morning, but when I logged in after clicking to add the site via the settings in the module in Drupal, I got the "adding new website" notice.

Thanks! I'm loving the ease of it overall (regardless of this bug) and so glad I found it (I'd been contemplating some other options that would have been a big hassle in comparison to this).

UPDATE... Ok... so, either someone did something behind the scenes or something is just working again. It's been about 1.5 hours since I added the sites and they're just suddenly in there (I'd even tried another browser 2 minutes before posting this to make sure there was no wonky cache thing going on). I now see 12 sites.

Assuming there was a temporary bug and things got flushed/fixed. The sites showed up almost immediately last night -- maybe that was just unusually fast and so I jumped the gun this morning after not seeing them 1+ hour later?

Hi,

First of all i want to thank you for trying out DrupalStatus.. It's people like you that keep me motivated to keep on improving this service!

I just noticed that someone crashed one of the scripts responsible to fech updates by using a corrupt module .info file for the module 'conditional_fields' with " " as version. I have now added a double check to prevent this from happening..

I have just now restarted the service, and while typing this reply i saw your message coming in that everything is fixed.. So good to hear that!

On average adding a site should not take up more then 1 minute depending on the current state of the crawler, i'm working on this so that it will be even faster in the future.

Closing this issue, and don't hesitate to mail me if you find anything else wrong, or if you have other suggestions for the module or the site.

Kind regards,
Sam

PS: we do should try to find a way to get around the 'maintenance mode' .. I'm going to look into this to see if this is possible.

Thanks for checking things, fixing them and the quick reply!

I think 1 minute is more than fine... :)

And yeah, if a workaround for the maintenance mode thing happens, that would be great!

I have proposed a patch to get around the maintenance mode, you can find it here: #2283491: Make sure that the module still works when site is in maintenance mode
