hi @nickp

There was a data processing error with the 365. It has been resolved and will be promoted next week.

Thanks,
James

@nickp

we’ve fixed the issue with the 365 today. There is also an issue with the Met Line’s route sequence that we’re still investigating.

thanks,
James

Hi James,

Thank you for that, I’ve seen the duplication problem before on modes bus, tube, tram & DLR. It’s intermittent and seems to resolve itself after a week or so. It was also affecting the Central, District, DLR and Piccadilly lines until this current update.

Results of update dated 20/12/2017:

Line restored: 365
Branches duplicated: Metropolitan

Regards
Nick

The Datastore update expected on 20th March has not yet been made (18:18 on 21st), at least not where I normally access it, so it may be difficult for Nick to report the results.

57

I’ll bump this is as nobody has responded. Where is the Datastore update please?

58

Update now present, with the files dated 23rd. I presume it was update don Friday evening but I gave up checking over the weekend.

59

API (Line/Mode/bus/Route) is still returning a created date of 14/3. I’m not holding my breath for when this update eventually gets published to the API. See my comment on 4 Jan for an earlier example.

Things can go wrong for human or IT reasons. What’s not clear is if anyone checks after an event is supposed to have taken place that it actually did. Users have no idea whether it is deliberate, an oversight or whatever but if TfL don’t either they cannot tell us.

And now the 27th March zip file is corrupt - gets to 68Mb then stops and is unopenable. This is the main zip file which contains four smaller zip files. IIRC it was one of the contained zip files which caused an issue over Christmas.

I appreciate this is not a developer issue, but where else can we go?
