I’m trying to run the [sentiment backfill rake](https://meta.discourse.org/t/enable-sentiment-analysis/259599/26), it starts working for a while (say about 6-10 minutes) and then it throws an error.

```plaintext

```

If I try to run it again, it aborts immediately with the same error, i.e. no incremental processing. Looks like it reached some point in the process where now it’s encountering this error.

Do you need any additional logs?

@Falco I tried this again today after a reboot and it gives the same error instantly, as soon as the rake started. Any suggestions?

EDIT: I noticed this in the discourse logs if it helps:

```plaintext
Message (4 copies reported)

Scoped order is ignored, it's forced to be batch order.

For me too, Sentiment Analysis isn’t working. And Back-Fill is failing in the same way, as yours.  
I’ve posted my screenshots of failing backfill [here](https://meta.discourse.org/t/enable-sentiment-analysis/259599/31):

I’m not seeing any errors in discourse logs when I try to run it (anymore), just the exception on the console.
