Q: I got error message from LSF for /afs/slac.stanford.edu/package/pinger/lod/PingERLOD/cmd/linux/schools.sh. Message said:
7/8/2013 11:22:15 -- PID=142350036 -- ERROR: Tried to start SchoolInstantiator but one or more of the EndPoints needed are taking too long to answer. Check log files for more details.
A: This means thatt the web service is unable to reach the remote data sets. These include dbpedia, geonames, factforge. Hopefully the next time it runs it will be successful. Continued failures need investigating. It runs once a day. The log files are at:
/afs/slac/package/pinger/lod/PingERLOD/data/log/
look at the the most recent file of the form logn.txt. Vim the file and search on the PID (e.g. 14235006) and look at the rror messages, e.g.
7/8/2013 11:6:30 – PID=142350036 – DBPedia does not seem to be up. – HttpException: -404 Failed to connect to remote server
