I upgraded a rather old hobbit install that I have (I don't remember what version, it was an early beta), and afterwards an HTTPS test I had against a host started flapping (see attached screenshot). Is there a recommended way for me to diagnose this problem?
What kind of error does it report for the failed tests ?
If you login as the hobbit user and run
bbcmd bbtest-net --debug HOSTNAME
where HOSTNAME is the name of the flapping host, then it will dump a lot of info about how it connects to the host and what happens during the test. Comparing these for a failing and a succesful test could give a clue about what happens.
The odd thing is that it's flapping like that. I could understand if it would completely fail; I've seen that happen with a few SSL implementations I test where upgrading the OpenSSL library caused it.
