Hello Stefan!
This comes from /etc/cron.daily/popularity-contest:
# try to post the report through http POST
if [ "$SUBMITURLS" ] && [ "yes" = "$USEHTTP" ]; then
for URL in $SUBMITURLS ; do
if setsid /usr/share/popularity-contest/popcon-upload \
-u $URL -f $POPCON 2>/dev/null ; then
SUBMITTED=yes
else
logger -t popularity-contest "unable to submit report to
$URL."
fi
done
fi
/usr/share/popularity-contest/popcon-upload has an option -d for
debugging that you could try.
