For anyone hitting this, stackoverflow suggests that "hg verify" might give more information: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2733248/unknown-parent-error-in-mercurial
I tried "hg verify" but got the same error after it ran. (In reply to Daniel Holbert [:dholbert] from comment #1) > For anyone hitting this, stackoverflow suggests that "hg verify" might give > more information: > http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2733248/unknown-parent-error-in-mercurial
I saw the same error message on three different repos. I think this is a server-side issue, not a client-side issue.
I believe (but I'm not 100% sure) that "hg verify" is entirely client-side -- so given that it produces the same abort (per comment 2), I think there's client-side bustage involved, too. (though the client-side bustage may have been directly caused by server-side bustage)
Corey, Ben - Did we push 2.2.3 anywhere?
Yes, i pushed 2.2.3 to hgweb1 last night. That node was also disabled in the load balancer.
Apparently not. So guys, we're looking for a timeline of when this started happening and is this related to http://bz.selenic.com/show_bug.cgi?id=3553 or is that a completely different issue?
This is one of the symbols that I have been seeing in this bug: http://bz.selenic.com/show_bug.cgi?id=3553 Specifically see my last comment on that bug.
And yes, this is a server side issue. The error message is actually coming from the remote.
Andreas was talking to me about how important my git mirror is yesterday, and my git mirror has been sort of broken since yesterday because of this bug...
Starting now, let's see when the next failure is? The only real tweak that was made to production yesterday was we enabled a cache with a 60 second TTL. That's now been turned off. I'd like to see if that was the cause for this.

Can you explain this a bit? Are you running your own git mirror that is being used for b2g?
Shyam, Zeus is the wrong place to be caching. Mercurial supports its own caching, which I am speaking with the developers about using.

Are you running your own git mirror that is > being used for b2g? Yes. I pull from m-c and inbound, convert stuff to git, and then push them to https://github.com/mozilla/mozilla-central and b2g uses that repository.
For the benefit of people not reading our IRC conversation, now that IT has disabled the caching that was put in place yesterday, I'm testing this very aggressively to see if it happens again.
This should be fixed, please reopen if that is not the case.
