Broken links automatic checker faulty

Post by Vimes » Thu Dec 03, 2020 3:35 pm

You have an automatic broken link checker on the JED which has twice recently unpublished Jomres for broken links which are not broken.

Did somebody forget to clear a cache or something? I've raised a support ticket to get it republished but I'd encourage somebody to disable this checker til whatever bug this is has been rectified.

Hi,

The LinkChecker tests the links three times in a month and sends emails to notify about the issue. If there is no change and the links can't be verified, then the extension is unpublished.

If you have checked the links and the links are working fine, then probably your server is blocking the JED Checker. The Link Checker runs from the server https://extensions.joomla.org/ (72.29.124.148 - joomla-extensions.directrouter.com) and it can be identified by the User Agent "Joomla-JED-LinkChecker".

Please, try to whitelist the agent or the IP on your firewall solution. In any case, send us a ticket to investigate the case and give you a hand checking the log files.

I have whitelisted the JED checker on the WAF.

Cool, I'll review the tickets as soon as I can get to the office (a couple of hours).
