Run 544's real cause was deeper than just "WAF rate-limit": the
upstream WAF (flights.test.aeroflot.ru) blocks the default curl UA
unconditionally, returning its HTML "Доступ временно ограничен"
page with HTTP 200. A genuine browser-like User-Agent (tested:
Chrome/120 on Linux) passes through and gets the real JSON.
Confirmed by direct upstream probe via the corp-VPN tunnel:
curl -A '<default>' → 3392b text/html (block page)
curl -A 'Mozilla/5.0 ...' → 28KB+ application/json (real data)
So every prior pre-warm "warmed" the WAF block page into the nginx
cache, and the runner was effectively never reaching the API. The
previous commit's body validation would now catch this — but only
to fail-fast, not to fix it. Real fix: send a browser UA.
Three places updated:
* scripts/ci/wait-for-url.sh — passes -A on every retry.
* ci-deploy.yml diagnose + pre-warm — UA shared via local var.
* release-verify.yml diagnose — same UA on customer-URL probes.
Note: the matching nginx config (proxy_no_cache $no_cache_html +
proxy_cache_bypass $http_cache_control on /api/dictionary/) was
deployed manually to pve-201 and verified — second hits now show
x-cache-status: HIT serving 28KB application/json. HTML responses
no longer get cached.
Two design pivots discovered during Phase B prerequisites:
Routing: Replace static-route + NAT plan with persistent ssh -L tunnel
from pve-201 to webzavod (deployment/systemd/flights-tim-tunnel.service).
nginx proxies /api/ and /map/api/ to https://127.0.0.1:8443 with SNI/Host
overrides so cert validation still targets the real hostname. No webzavod
kernel changes (no ip_forward/MASQUERADE), no /etc/hosts pin needed.
Workflow B: Drop Jenkins trigger/poll automation (operator lacks Jenkins
job-configure access and user API token access). release.yml now stops
after MR merge with a Telegram message containing the Jenkins job URL.
release-verify.yml (new, workflow_dispatch only) runs the customer-URL
e2e suite once the operator has triggered Jenkins manually and it has
completed.
Other:
- SSR loopback port 8081 -> 3002 (8081 was taken by openwebui on pve-201)
- notify-telegram.sh skips cleanly when TG secrets unset (was: hard-fail)
- README + spec addendum cover the new prereqs and removed steps
CI needs to sync to an arbitrary clone dir, not just the local sibling.
Extract the copy logic into sync-to-gitlab.sh (required target arg,
machine-friendly output); reduce sync-to-flights-front.sh to a thin
wrapper that supplies the local default and adds dev next-steps hints.
