Description Eric Helms 2016-07-12 18:22:59 UTC
Sometimes when publishing a content view, a race condition can occur that causes the content view publish step to fail at the distributor publish step. The steps to reproduce are not concrete as this is an intermittent failure, one could try:

 1. Create content view with lots of repositories
 2. Constantly publish the content view

Another idea would be to:

 1. Create 10 content views with multiple repositories
 2. Loop publish the 10 content views

Work around: Resume content view publish task


The traceback associated with the issue is:
