Hello Jens, As you can see the number of popcon submitters is rising. What gives ls -l /var/log/popularity-contest (more generally, what is the sizeof the report ?) Could you try to change the submission time in /etc/cron.d/popularity-contest ? Maybe the server is overloaded at this time or your report is too large. Thanks for using popularity-contest! -- Bill. <[email protected]> Imagine a large red swirl here.
