Possible duplicate sessions about shynet HOT 8 CLOSED

Alright, this is fixed in v0.3.2. Please reopen if you find the issue continues.

Thanks for the report! This is a pretty shocking issue to be honest; it's likely that it affects pretty much all default Shynet instances except for my own (because I use an external Redis server). So I would not have seen this if it weren't for your report!

Can you show the session details view for each of those sessions? I’m curious if this is someone’s browser calling the <noscript> image fallback.

from shynet.

nope, all of the sessions use the JS tracker.

Alright, I'll take a look at this. I haven't been able to replicate this issue, but will see if anything turns up.

(By the way—@Windyo I edited your comment to remove the screenshots, as I wanted to avoid the potentially private IP information from floating around. Just an FYI in case you were wondering what happened.)

I can reproduce it on my sites - if needed I can create you a shynet user on my instance. I can't give you ssh access though.

@Windyo by the way, do you have multiple frontend servers running?

I could see this being an issue if there are multiple frontend servers that aren't connected to the same cache backend.

from shynet.

Hmmm.

I do have multiple instances of servers running as everything is dockerized, but only one server per website.
Meaning the wiki's on server, with its own database, and the other websites as well.

Oh, I know what’s happening. Gunicorn is launching 3 instances of Shynet, which aren’t connected via the same cache. That’s causing the duplication. The fix is easy, fortunately: have Gunicorn launch only one instance. I’ll push an update to fix this shortly.
