• hpt bug: Missing seen+by's in echomails send to same zone links

    From Wilfred van Velzen@2:280/464 to Developers on Wednesday, January 31, 2024 13:40:44
    Hi Developers,

    I'm receiving some dupes that shouldn't happen. For echomail messages that originate or go through systems using hpt 1.9, which have -sbkeepall in their config set.


    For instance here's a routing diagram of what I see for messages generated on 3:770/1 in the STATS area:

    +----------+ A +-----------+
    + 3:770/1 |------->| 3:712/848 |
    +----------+ +-----------+
    | |
    B | +-----------+ | C
    +-->| 2:280/464 |<--+
    +-----------+

    A: Only Z3 downlinks of 3:770/1 in the seenby's
    B: All downlinks (in all zones) of 3:770/1 in the seenby's
    C: Unnecessary dupes received through 3:712/848, because my node should be in the seen+by's of the message received by 3:712/848 from 3:770/1.


    An example for today:

    From : 3:770/1 2024-01-31 23:59:16
    To : All
    Subj : Daily Areas Summary
    @MSGID: 3:770/1 65ba2805

    Has the following seen+by's and path when received directly from 3:770/1 by my system:

    SEEN+BY: 218/840 220/70 226/17 267/800 280/464 712/848 770/1 100 330 340 SEEN+BY: 772/220 230
    PATH: 770/1

    And these when received through 3:712/848 as dupe:

    SEEN+BY: 229/426 280/464 301/1 633/267 712/620 848 770/1 100 330 340 772/220 SEEN+BY: 772/230
    PATH: 770/1 712/848

    Notice that all the Z1 downlinks of 3:770/1 (218/840 220/70 226/17 267/800) present in the direct message, are missing from the seen+by's in the message that is received as dupe from 3:712/848.

    I have confirmation it's the originating hpt system where this is happening, and there is no seen+by stripping taking place on the system in between.

    3:770/1 Seems to be using hpt/lnx 1.9 2022-07-03

    I've also confirmed the same thing happening on another system using hpt/lnx 1.9 2023-02-24.

    3:770/1 Seems to be using hpt/lnx 1.9 2022-07-03

    It is more important to know whether 3:712/848 uses hpt.

    I've also confirmed the same thing happening on another system using hpt/lnx 1.9 2023-02-24.

    I cannot promise I'll be able to address this issue any time soon, but to do it I must have the hpt configuration from 3:712/848 and two messages: the message he receives from 3:770/1 and the message he sends to you. My email address is in the tagline.

    I don't think there is any importance to the next-hop system in this case - as long as it doesn't strip seen+by's (which it doesn't). These are packets directly created by an hpt system, and unaltered by anyone else, also proven here using hpt.

    I have attached two packets (zipped) for you via email that were created here by hpt. One packet was destined to a Z1 link, the other was destined to a Z2 link. This is before they even left my system, so obviously unaltered by another.

    If you need anything else, please let me know.

    Hi Michael,

    He does, but it's not relevant.

    I've also seen this happen where the second system doesn't use hpt.

    This involves:

    1:154/10 hpt
    1:154/30 synchronet
    2:280/464 me (using FMail)

    Where 1:154/10 also posts messages in the STATS area. And I'm getting them also as dupes from 1:154/30.
    1:154/10 Investigated his outbound .pkt files for me and 1:154/30, the seen+by's where different, where they should be the same.

    I've also confirmed the same thing happening on another system using
    hpt/lnx 1.9 2023-02-24.

    I cannot promise I'll be able to address this issue any time soon, but to do it I must have the hpt configuration from 3:712/848 and two messages: the message he receives from 3:770/1 and the message he sends to you. My email address is in the tagline.

    Maybe I can give you those for the 1:154/* case above. But it really is as I told you, it was thoroughly investigated!

    But it should be easy for you to test it yourself. Just write a message in an echomail area for which you have links in multiple zones, and check the seen+by's in the generated outbound .pkt files for these links. They should all be the same, but they won't be...

    I'm not a husky user myself. I just noticed the problem and reported on it.

    But if my links, that use husky, start using this version, I will keep a close eye on what will happen!

    Paul Hayton doesn't seem to have updated his hpt yet. I still got his messages in the STATS area as dupes through 712/848...

    Hi Stephen,
    On 2024-02-06 09:06:29, I wrote to you:

    It looks good! I didn't receive any dupes for this message from
    you. Neither from 712/848 or 770/1, that are both directly
    connected here to this area. But they should also upgrade!

    Paul Hayton doesn't seem to have updated his hpt yet. I still got his messages in the STATS area as dupes through 712/848...

    Thanks for the netmail, I was not following this thread. It's been a while since I last updated the software and it sounds like there's a new way to do it? I'll try to find some time to have a look at this in the coming week.

    Best, Paul.

    when I look at the install.asciidocs it talks about updating?? a csvdate.h file date for each directory? I can see the date in the file in the HPT directory but how to know what to change it to?

    git log -1 --date=short --format=format:"%cd" h/*.h src/*.c
    2021-04-19

    what am I missing?

    I don't want to break my system

    It's been a while since I built this software and looking back at my notes I used to do this with success

    I would do a fresh install in a new husky directory. I just did that a few days ago and all is well here.

    From section 2.4 of the INSTALL.asciidoc ..

    wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/huskyproject/huskybse/master/script/init _build

    chmod 0755 init_build
    ./init_build


    Then change into the husky directory and adjust the huskymac.cfg as needed and then run..

    ./build.sh

    OK all done, seemed to work OK but am not 100% sure if I have the new versions running (or not)?

    Wilfred do you want to run another test to see if 3:770/1 is behaving itself now?

    Hopefully I'm now in sync with the rest of the community :)

    Just run 'hpt' on the command line with no arguments. First line before the usage help will tell you.

    'hpt/lnx 1.9 [date here]' -- 2024-02-05 is what you're looking for. If not, you did it wrong. :)

    There is no "-v" in hpt. However, it is there in htick. :)

    tommi@kco:~$ htick -v
    htick/lnx 1.9 2023-12-21

    tommi@kco:~$ hpt -v
    Unrecognized commandline option "-v"!

    Those were posted about 21 minutes ago, and there are no dupes sofar. So it's looking good!

    Yes, I know. That is why I didn't tell him to use '-v'. Just executing 'hpt' with no command line arguments will give him the same result, including a help screen! :)

    I think it worked, I just had to correct the path to my config files when I built the software as I had it wrong the first time. Ah the joys :)
