CPANtesters appears to be failing to record the name of at least one distribution when receiving reports. The distribution which I have observed this in is Net-SSLeay, whose version 1.94 was uploaded on Jan 08 2024 (https://metacpan.org/dist/Net-SSLeay). If I go to the matrix (http://matrix.cpantesters.org/?dist=Net-SSLeay or http://fast-matrix.cpantesters.org/?dist=Net-SSLeay), however, the *displayed* version is 1.93_05, and I also see: ##### Other versions NOTE: no report for latest version 1.94 ##### So the system is aware that 1.94 has been released to CPAN but believes that no reports have yet been uploaded. This discrepancy was called to my attention by Net-SSLeay's maintainers in the course of resolving an issue: https://github.com/radiator-software/p5-net-ssleay/issues/425#issuecomment-1882944459. I then tried to install Net::SSLeay against a perl-5.39.6 where Task::CPAN::Reporter had been installed and was known to work properly. The report was generated as expected: ##### [bullseye:.cpanreporter] 2011 $ ls -l reports-sent.db -rw-r--r-- 1 jkeenan jkeenan 42304 Jan 9 20:39 reports-sent.db [bullseye:.cpanreporter] 2012 $ tail -n 5 reports-sent.db test PASS MooseX-Has-Sugar-1.000006 (perl-5.39.6) x86_64-linux 5.10.0-25-amd64 test PASS Email-Address-XS-1.05 (perl-5.39.6) x86_64-linux 5.10.0-25-amd64 test PASS File-MMagic-1.30 (perl-5.39.6) x86_64-linux 5.10.0-25-amd64 test PASS Modern-Perl-1.20230106 (perl-5.39.6) x86_64-linux 5.10.0-25-amd64 test PASS Net-SSLeay-1.94 (perl-5.39.6) x86_64-linux 5.10.0-25-amd64 ##### As a precaution, I then generated CPANtesters reports for one of my own distributions on the same machine: ##### CPAN::Reporter: Test result is 'pass', All tests successful.

I see 6 such defective entries now at http://metabase.cpantesters.org/tail/log.txt, all from reputable CPANtester contributors. Can you investigate? Thank you very much. James E Keenan
