- postmortem Apr 15, 2026, 06:58 PM UTC
### **Dates:** Monday, February 23rd 2026, 17:22 UTC - 22:31 UTC ### **What happened:** WDIO-based tests run by customers using Sauce Connect 4 could not be started. ### **Why it happened:** Misconfiguration caused failing health checks in some cases, causing customer tunnels to shut down. ### **How we fixed it:** Misconfiguration was corrected. ### **What we are doing to prevent it from happening again:** Evaluation of the underlying software stack. Customers who are still using SC4 that can migrate to SC5 should do so at their earliest convenience.
