Smth strange started to happen. I receive notifications with a huge time gap about 15 hours. At the same time the Telegram notification plugin receives notifications instantly but repeats them multiple times. Any ideas why does it happen?

That is strange. How did you install? Could something else be mucking with redis? Have look at /sidekiq are there errors there or in your admin logs?

It was a [standard install](https://meta.discourse.org/t/142537?silent=true), not fresh, but updated to the latest.

In /sidekiq I found a lot of killed tasks and retries because of this error:

```plaintext
Wrapped I18n::InvalidLocaleData: can not load translations from /var/www/discourse/plugins/discourse-private-replies/config/locales/server.ar.yml: #
<Psych::SyntaxError: (/var/www/discourse/plugins/discourse-private-replies/config/locales/server.ar.yml): did not find expected key while parsing a block mapping at line 3 column 5>

```

So remove the private replies plugin and see if that fixes it.

The issue was connected with this topic: [Discourse Private Replies - #34 by Ed\_Bobkov](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-private-replies/146712/34)  
The problem wen away after the plugin was fixed.
