DamianZaremba Scripts are down

Hi DamianZarema, I noticed that DamianZaremba Scripts hasn't edited for 3 years (!), so all this time they've been stuck at reporting CBNG and CBIII as running (even when they haven't). Could you look into resurrecting those scripts? Thanks, —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 14:58, 4 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi,
This is because libmediawiki-api-perl 0.41 relies on "intoken" which is no longer supported by the API (fixed in 0.50).
The scripts are still running and email out when the bot is not running, only the page edits are failing. - Damian Zaremba (talkcontribs) 16:32, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
https://gist.github.com/DamianZaremba/49f56b2f28427fd37923989046af5700 should sort this for now; I don't expect the ubuntu package to be updated anytime soon... - Damian Zaremba (talkcontribs) 16:57, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
Ok, next problem between L235, Blablubbs and Jon_Kolbert there is a block on the IPv4 and IPv6 subnets that the server which runs the monitoring scripts live in (139.162.0.0/16 & 2A01:7E00:0:0:0:0:0:0/30).
The idea of using an alternative account was for this to be able to edit from hosting provider space that is otherwise blocked... apparently that isn't working anymore.
I don't have time to dig into this more, so while edits are now 'working as expected' they are being rejected due to the block... if that can be resolved things should start happening again. - Damian Zaremba (talkcontribs) 17:22, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
I see some edits coming in, but to be safe I granted IPBE to the scripts account so it should no longer be affected by those blocks. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 17:43, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
Great, that appears to have done the trick.
Ironically the block appeal I created was declined (seemingly without reading any information provided).
