I found a few more IPs making requests using the shady Chrome 44 user agent in the last few days so I will add them to the block list too:
18.207.136.176
185.189.36.248
50.118.223.78
52.70.76.123
3.236.10.11
Looking at the Solr statistics for 2022-04
52.191.137.59 is Microsoft, but they are using a normal user agent and making tens of thousands of requests
64.39.98.62 is owned by Qualys, and all their requests are probing for /etc/passwd etc
185.192.69.15 is in the Netherlands and is using a normal user agent, but making excessive automated HTTP requests to paths forbidden in robots.txt
157.55.39.159 is owned by Microsoft and identifies as bingbot so I don&rsquo;t know why its requests were logged in Solr
52.233.67.176 is owned by Microsoft and uses a normal user agent, but making excessive automated HTTP requests
157.55.39.144 is owned by Microsoft and uses a normal user agent, but making excessive automated HTTP requests
207.46.13.177 is owned by Microsoft and identifies as bingbot so I don&rsquo;t know why its requests were logged in Solr
If I query Solr for time:2022-04* AND dns:*msnbot* AND dns:*.msn.com. I see a handful of IPs that made 41,000 requests
I purged 93,974 hits from these IPs using my check-spider-ip-hits.sh script

<li>Update PostgreSQL JDBC driver to 42.3.5 in the Ansible infrastructure playbooks and deploy on DSpace Test</li>
<li>Peter asked me how many items we add to CGSpace every year
<ul>
<li>I wrote a SQL query to check the number of items grouped by their accession dates since 2009:</li>
</ul>

<li>Note that I had an issue with casting <code>text_value</code> to date because one item had an accession date of <code>2016</code> instead of <code>2016-09-29T20:14:47Z</code>
<ul>
<li>Once I fixed that PostgreSQL was able to <a href="https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/functions-datetime.html#FUNCTIONS-DATETIME-EXTRACT">extract() the year</a></li>
<li>There were some other methods I tried that worked also, for example <code>TO_DATE()</code>:</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<div class="highlight"><pre tabindex="0" style="color:#f8f8f2;background-color:#272822;-moz-tab-size:4;-o-tab-size:4;tab-size:4;"><code class="language-console" data-lang="console"><span style="display:flex;"><span>localhost/dspacetest= ☘ SELECT EXTRACT(year from TO_DATE(text_value, &#39;YYYY-MM-DD&#34;T&#34;HH24:MI:SS&#34;Z&#34;&#39;)) AS YYYY, COUNT(*) FROM metadatavalue WHERE metadata_field_id=11 GROUP BY YYYY ORDER BY YYYY DESC LIMIT 14;
</span></span></code></pre></div><ul>
<li>But it seems PostgreSQL is smart enough to recognize date formatting in strings automatically when we cast so we don&rsquo;t need to convert to date first</li>
<li>Another thing I noticed is that a few hundred items have accession dates from decades ago, perhaps this is due to importing items from the CGIAR Library?</li>
<li>I spent some time merging a few pull requests for DSpace 6.4 and porting one to <code>main</code> for DSpace 7.x</li>
