Daily tests: Submit an IPv6 DIG AAAA problem

[polarhome]

Hello,

I try to raise my points and continuously test my IPv6 configuration stability with daily tests... and so far it worked very well.

But recently, the Submit an IPv6 DIG AAAA reports: "Sorry, you've already submitted a dig query to the same destination" even if I am absolutely positive that I have not submitted that host.

I wonder is everything OK with this test for others?

There might be some ongoing development in that area, changed verification parser script... or just the my database have some record that always match the verification regular expression  query.

Today I tried with:

with the same result :(

...any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Keep in mind that it's tracking the prefix, not the website

So if Site A has 2001:db8:1234:5678::2/64 and Site B has 2001:db8:1234:5678::2/64, you're going to run into problems

Its also possible that the ip is used by multiple sites.
www.foo.bar
ftp.foo2.bar
both point to the same ip.

Hello,

Thank you for helping me... but there is no problems with the IP addresses, duplicates, already submitted values etc.
I have taken information from the http://bgp.he.net/ipv6-progress-report.cgi page and done all tests with a script with listed 300 hosts. I have enough different data/information for the whole Daily test run.

All tests have worked perfect until now... but in the last few days just the IPv6 DIG AAAA fail with all tested data, therefore I have a feeling that the problem is somewhere else - either in the database where the data is stored or with the logic that checks for duplicate entries. 

I have tested today with at least 4 different and valid outputs with the same result: "Sorry, you've already submitted a dig query to the same destination" :(

Thank you.

Z

You're probably better to send e-mail to ipv6@he.net to get your question answered. Show them an example of a failed dig query and they can investigate.

Thank you. This is a good idea. I'll send a mail right away.
Thank you.

...soon it will be 24 days without reply. :(

I am in fact very satisfied with the ipv6 tunnel service - just as a perfectionist, I would like to complete this test and I can not as long every "dig AAAA" output is refused.

24 days? I must go do more math quizzes at Khan Academy, because the 15th was only 9 days ago. Also someone replied to that ticket, might want to check your spam folder:

I am sorry for the pessimistic day calculation... but I haven't got any reply so far.

I continuously retry every day as you can see from the log... and the Daily Dig (AAAA) fails in the past 10 days

Summary of user's dig query
Host name: www.dumpert.nl.
AAAA Record:2a00:d00:ff:235:81:23:247:230
Status: NOERROR
Result: Pass

I don't know how to submit it in your name though...did you get an error when submitting?

[polarhome]

Hello,

thank you for testing.

It have worked perfect 37 times... but I guess something got corrupted in the database and now every entry that I submit match with that corrupted record. This is exactly what the error message says: "Sorry, you've already submitted a dig query to the same destination". Like this I am totally stacked with dig AAAA test, until somebody does not delete that corrupted record that match all destinations.

Today, I tried with the same failure.

Hello,

I have never got that e-mail :(
Should I write again?
