does ssb-ebt disable the legacy replication? #25

Closed christianbundy closed 5 years ago

christianbundy commented 5 years ago

right now Patchwork has ssb-ebt disabled because of #22, but as long as the legacy replication still works while ssb-ebt is enabled I don't see any reason not to re-enable it

ebt doesn't disable the legacy replication (unless it's explicitly disabled). it tries ebt first, then falls back to legacy if there is a error. if it just stalls, that wouldn't happen, so I think we need to either, a) have code that detects the stall and reconnects (ugly hack) or b) actually fix the problem. (needs reproduce code)

Sweet, thank you for the info!
