Thingsboard Performance Test - Gatling - mqtt

I'm trying to do performance test using the https://github.com/thingsboard/gatling-mqtt project.
Although current versions of the tools are a bit different, I managed to have it running.
I've tested a couple of basic scripts with Gatling using HTTP and Gatling worked as expected.
But when using the scripts provided with the tool, that use the plugin for MQTT it does not work.
In fact it runs but it doesn't do anything. No connections, no logs, no reports, no errors.
On the other tests it increments the global OK=0 as the test progresses, and generates logs and reports.
But as you can see below, when running with the MQTT plugin it doesn't increment the count
.

... and it goes on forever
Any ideas on what could be happening?
I would certainly appreciate any help on this!
Thank you!

Unused Passenger process stays alive and consumes server resources for a Rails 4 app

we have a Rails app that runs using Apache -> Passenger. At least once a week, our alerts that monitor server CPU and RAM start getting triggered on one or more of our app servers, and the root cause is that one or more of the Passenger processes are taking up a large chunk of the server CPU and RAM , without actually serving any requests.
for example, when i run "passenger-status" on the server that triggers these alerts, i see this:
Version : 5.3.1
Date : 2022-06-03 22:00:13 +0000
Instance: (Apache/2.4.51 (Amazon) OpenSSL/1.0.2k-fips Phusion_Passenger/5.3.1)
----------- General information -----------
Max pool size : 12
App groups : 1
Processes : 9
Requests in top-level queue : 0
----------- Application groups -----------
Requests in queue: 0
* PID: 16915 Sessions: 1 Processed: 3636 Uptime: 3h 2m 30s

* PID: 11275 Sessions: 0 Processed: 34 Uptime: 55m 24s
CPU: 45% Memory : 5720M Last used: 35m 43s ago
...
see how the 2nd process hasn't been used for > 35 minutes but is taking up so much of the server resources?
the only solution has been to manually kill the PID which seems to resolve the issue, but is there a way to automate this check?
i also realize that the Passenger version is old and can be upgraded (which I will get done soon) but i have seen this issue in multiple versions prior to the current version, so i wasn't sure if an upgrade by itself is guaranteed to resolve this or not.

Spring Cloud Skipper errors out immediately after start on local MicroK8s

I'm trying to deploy the entire Spring Cloud Data Flow platform to a MicroK8s cluster running on one of our server, a VM with Ubuntu 20.04. Before starting performing actions on the target server, I tried to deploy it on my local computer (same OS) and I even succeeded and created/run one stream. Nevertheless, I am currently experiencing an error both on my local computer and on the VM, and I can't manage to pinpoint the root cause.
My current situation:
I'm following the official guide for deploying SCDF using kubectl, only difference being that I'm using tag v2.9.4, latest at the time of writing, instead of v2.9.1. I also skipped the configuration of monitoring frameworks, and hence commented the relevant lines in the configuration of SCDF server, as suggested in the docs. Kafka message broker and MySQL database are deployed without issues.
But, after executing kubectl commands to create config map, service and deployment for Skipper, I can see that Skipper pod goes in status "CrashLoopBackOff". Checking the logs of the pod, the only thing I see is that the application is terminated right after it seems to have started:

What I tried:
Changing the Skipper service type from LoadBalancer to NodePort (I have not enabled metallb so load balancing is not provided), but didn't work;
Changing the port exposed by the container, in the default configuration is port 80, I changed it to 7577 (also in the service configuration), but the error still occurs;
Downgraded to the version 2.8.2 of skipper, the same in the documentation above, the behaviour was exactly the same.
Increasing the logging level by setting logging.level.org.springframework to DEBUG and then to TRACE didn't result in anything useful showing up in the logs, except a cryptic line which I did not found anywhere on google:
[...]

Can anyone suggest me what to try next, or give me some way to further diagnosticate this issue?

How to analyze unsuccessful builds in the analysis phase?

A bazel binary that I am building completes unsuccessfully during the analysis phase. What flags and tools can I use to debug why it fails during analysis.
Currently, clean builds return the following output
ERROR: build interrupted
INFO: Elapsed time: 57.819 s
FAILED: Build did NOT complete successfully (133 packages loaded)
If I retry building after failed completion, I receive the following output
ERROR: build interrupted
INFO: Elapsed time: 55.514 s
FAILED: Build did NOT complete successfully (68 packages loaded)
What flags can I use to identify
what packages are being loaded
what package the build is being interrupted on
whether the interruption is coming from a timeout or an external process.
Essentially, something similar to --verbose_failures but for the analysis phase rather than the execution phrase.
So far I have ran my build through the build profiler, and have not been able to glean any insight. Here is the output of my build:

As far as my command, I am running
bazel build src:MY_TARGET --embed_label MY_LABEL --stamp --show_loading_progress
Use the --host_jvm_debug startup flag to debug Bazel itself during a build.
From https://bazel.build/contributing.html:
Debugging Bazel
Start creating a debug configuration for both C++ and
Java in your .bazelrc with the following:
build:debug -c dbg
build:debug --javacopt="-g"
build:debug --copt="-g"
build:debug --strip="never"
Then you can rebuild Bazel with bazel build --config debug //src:bazel and use your favorite debugger to start debugging.
For debugging the C++ client you can just run it from gdb or lldb as
you normally would. But if you want to debug the Java code, you must
attach to the server using the following:
Run Bazel with debugging option --host_jvm_debug before the command (e.g., bazel --batch --host_jvm_debug build //src:bazel).
Attach a debugger to the port 5005. With jdb for instance, run jdb -attach localhost:5005. From within Eclipse, use the remote
Java application launch configuration.
Our IntelliJ plugin has built-in debugging support

PassengerTempDir issue ERROR: Phusion Passenger doesn't seem to be running

I have trouble while trying to set PassengerTempDir:
I have redmine on apache+mod_passenger, CentOs. In redmine I have 500 Internal Error while uploading files. Due to my issue I have found that I should change PassengerTempDir to custom folder.
wrong permissions set in the webserver_private directory of passenger.
