That should work. I'll have to check on the admin_email setting.

Correct this maps the tracker's /as2it/ URL path to the tracker
directory.

Agreed. The URL was missing a trailing /. So it generated a redirect
to add one.

It is not a problem. This is caused by the client (nmap) closing the
connection before Roundup has processed and finished responding. There
is an open ticket to fix this cosmetic (but scary) traceback with
newer Pythons.

What is your web setting? It should be something like:

  http://real_host_name:8080/as2it/

This is correct. It is using /as2it/ as you typed into the browser.

>192.168.170.6 - - [20/Sep/2022 09:37:12] code 404, message /local/data/roundup/as2it/
>192.168.170.6 - - [20/Sep/2022 09:37:12] "POST /local/data/roundup/as2it/ HTTP/1.1" 404 -

This is wrong. /local/data/roundup/as2it/ is not a URL path, it's the
location on disk. The only way I know this can happen is for the web
setting to be something like:

     http://localhost:8080/local/data/roundup/as2it/


>192.168.170.6 - - [20/Sep/2022 09:37:51] Request timed out: TimeoutError('timed out')

Not sure what to make of these timeouts. Also these seems to be some
sort of timezone issue as you have 9:37:51 and 13:37:51 which is the
difference expected between UTC and EST5EDT. But it has nothing to do
with the errors you are seeing.

Hope this helps.
