Failure Reporting

If a report fails, there are several ways you may be able to pick this up.

If a report prints the word FAILED as the last line of output, the addon will mark the report as a failure and highlight this in the web interface. Reports based on our new reporting library will automatically do this if an unhandled exception is detected.

If a report simply fails to run (ie. due to a Python syntax error), it will also automatically be marked as failed.

You can also email out a list of failed reports with the failuremailer function - we suggest calling this once per day (for example, at <myserver>/reportlist/failuremailer).

To subscribe to the failure email list, add your email username to the subs/failure.list file in your report directory.
