I've had a chiselapp username for many years - it's the second component (of four) of my email address above. The name of the prime repo is the same as my username.

Recently, I haven't been able to push changes to it - the most recent change showing on chiselapp is from June 20. My local repo has several changes since then, I have autosync switched on, so changes should have been pushed; anyway, I've done an explicit **fossil sync** and they haven't appeared.

I've created a new repository, named **myStuff** and executed
```
% fossil remote https://chiselapp.com/user/<username>/repository/myStuff
% fossil push
```

After the push command, fossil confirmed it was pushing to https://chiselapp.com/user/*username*/repository/myStuff, but was silent otherwise.

My new repository is still empty.

Before I executed the **fossil remote** command above, my local repo was pointing to https://chiselapp.com/use/*username*/repository/*username*; the command **fossil sync** behaved in a similar fashion - i.e. the only output was a message confirming the URL it was syncing with.

I've raised the original **sync** problem in [the fossil forums](https://fossil-scm.org/forum/forumpost/46d8d3152162a4d4?t=h) and the folks there feel the problem lies with chiselapp not fossil.

For reference, my local machine is running Linux Mint 20.2 Cinnamon, and my fossil client is 2.15 [2c6012c4aa].

The problem eventually turned out to be caused by a couple of *large* database dumps that I'd added. These were sufficient to run up against the standard 512 MiB memory limit.

I eventually spotted some **512 Internal Server error** messages; I can't be sure whether or not they were always there and I was overlooking them.
