No, system time is synced everywhere, including on the mirror servers. So that probably doesn't have to do with anything.

Could be completely irrelevant Jeremy however, is your system's time & date gone out of sync?

Hey,

I've seen the gitlab issue as well, I'll try to find what could be the issue. As Jeremy pointed out in the issue it could be mirrors that sync often so that could in turn mean that when a sync is executed the check from archweb is as well and that could cause some extra latency for the check to fail. This is my very short guess but i'll try to dig in more.

Hi, as I've posted on GitLab: I've talked to DevOps team and it might be an issue where due to increaisng IO writing the lastsync at T0 might take some time, causing an actually empty lastsync file to be served, causing the checks to fail as well. Hopefully this change will fix that infrastructure!794 https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/infrastructure/-/merge_requests/794 Regards, Arun
