Recent Problem

Today the webserver with the Caedmon webcam pointing to the Acre and the James Graham Building was restarted again. It had been off for an unknown time, probably due to a temporary shut-down a short while ago. Since I no longer have an office in which this webcam is located, I was not able to immediately restart it after I had noticed the shut-down. Another issue hid this shutdown from me for a while: due to a wrong configuration of the 2nd webcam server (which points to the parking lot between Priestley and Caedmin), the picture of that server replaced the one from the main webcam, with the result that the supervisory process (which checks if there is no new image within 24 hours) has not detected a lack of images, and therefore has not sent a notification about the webcam outage.

This has now been fixed, and both webcams run properly as intended. The Headingley Caedmon Webcam has indeed been running for several months without me ever visiting or maintaining the server.
