Hi everyone,

Merry Christmas (or Festive season, if you prefer) and a happy New Year to everyone!

I have just registered my first software RIPE probe. I can see it in my RIPE Atlas probe list. When checking systemd logs, I can see that the probe is registered properly with its control server (which is ctr-fsn01.atlas.ripe.net).

When I ran the first measurement from it, the measurement didn’t show up on the web. I see the following error in the systemd journal:

pro 24 09:36:38 controller ATLAS[8785]: total size in dir: 5668

pro 24 09:36:38 controller ATLAS[8785]: httppost: before getaddrinfo

pro 24 09:36:38 controller ATLAS[8785]: httppost: leaving with error

pro 24 09:36:38 controller ATLAS[8785]: ooqd: httppost failed with 1

This conforms to what I see in tcpdump:

POST /?PROBE_ID=1000060&SESSION_ID=34f398cd76888d91da4adb236e00ded25abf69bcf959509b748ad7e84b33c2c8&SRC=oneoff HTTP/1.1

The question is: why does the probe (talking via the initiated SSH tunnel at 8080:127.0.0.1:8080) receive such a message from the controller? Is this common or a bug?

O/S: Ubuntu 18.04, amd64

SW probe version: atlasswprobe==5000-1

Thanks for any insight and/or hint.

Cheers,
