Updating of GIT repositories mirrored on common-lisp.net is broken!

Jean-Claude Beaudoin — 2013-05-23T19:43:37

For projects that mirror their GIT repositories on
common-lisp.net it looks very much like the automatic
(cron based) updating has been broken since last April, 23.

I think the problem comes from a stale lock file named
cron.root.update-git-mirrors.run in directory /custom/run.
Could someone with root access remove that stale lock
and assure that the updating script can then run properly?

Thanks,

Jean-Claude Beaudoin

More mailing list issues

Raymond Toy — 2013-05-15T03:55:14

Can't remember if I mentioned this before, but when I submit a ticket
to trac, trac sends and email to the ticket mailing list.
(cmucl-ticket in this case).

But the message is held for moderation because it's coming from a
wrong address, I guess.  In this case, the From address is
cmucl-devel< at >.  

This used to work, without me having to approve of every message.

Did some old configuration not get restored or do I now need to update
something?

Mailing list changes?

Raymond Toy — 2013-05-02T03:19:55

Did something change with the mailing lists again?

Yesterday and today I got a bunch of welcome messages.  Yesterday was
for mailing lists that were already working (like cmucl-imp,
cmucl-announce).  Today, I got some for editor-hints-devel and cmucl-help.

Also, I got an welcome message for f2cl-annooi< at >common-lisp.net.  I can't
help but think that's a typo for f2cl-announce.  Can someone fix that,
please?

mailing lists: please restore all

Anton Vodonosov — 2013-04-28T08:58:18

There are mailing lists that are still down.

I believe it is wrong approach to send emails to mailing list owners and
restore only lists where list owners replied explicitly that the list is needed.

Other way araound: all lists should be restored and only those explicitly requested
may be removed.

Note, the owner may be inactive, but there are other people who need the lists:
other subscribers, future subscribers, etc.

Best regards,

mailing lists: archives

Anton Vodonosov — 2013-04-28T08:56:03

The Internet is full of links to the common-lisp.net mailing list archives.
http://lists.common-lisp.net/pipermail/{list-name}/(year}-December/{some-numbers}.html

Today all these links are broken. I believen it is necessary to restore old mailmain archives.

I hope new mailing list sofware keeps archives. It is necessary to publish a link to new and old
archives on the mailins list info page. 

Also it is desiable that new archives include imported old messages, so that we see topic
threads inunterrupted, and search work for the whole archive body, instead of making
user to preform two searches: in the old archives and in the new.

Best regards,
- Anton

mailing lists: listinfo page

Anton Vodonosov — 2013-04-28T08:47:32

I think every project which has mailing list on common-lisp.net has on the project page a link
to http://common-lisp.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/{list-name}.

Today all these links form all project pages are broken.

For those who unaware about the listinfo page. It allowed, for project owner to:
- change list options
- see the mailing list subscribers
- maybe something else I don't remember

For users it allsows to:
- subscribe
- unsubscribe
- change subscriptions options (e.g. receive every email, receive a digest, do not receive emails; and other options).

Also this page linkns to the mailing list archives.

I think this functionality should be restored.

Best regards,
- Anton

Questions about new mailing lists setup on common-lisp.net

Jean-Claude Beaudoin — 2013-04-24T09:00:24

I have been trying to figure out the new project mailing lists setup
on common-lisp.net for the last few hours. I think I more or less
understand now how the lists setup is to be used but I still
have a few questions left:

1- Is there a web based interface to browse the archive of a list?

2- Is the mailman era archive of each list now simply
    unreachable from the web?

3- Is there a web based interface for new users to subscribe
    to a list?  Or, do we have to explain them on the project page
    that they need to send email to say
    "projectfoo-devel+subscribe< at >common-lisp.net" in order
    to subscribe to the projectfoo-devel list?

4- From what I understand now there is no password associated
     with a subscription to a list, nor is there any password
     associated with the owner/admin role of a list.  Am I wrong
     in believing that now someone simply has to send emails
     with a forged From: field to hijack control of the list/subscription?

Thanks,

Jean-Claude Beaudoin

Putting other things back into service (Was: Re: Putting statistics back into service.)

Jean-Claude Beaudoin — 2013-04-23T04:57:47

As you can see from the exchange here below my account jcbeaudoin
on common-lisp.net has been made a member of the "admin" group
by Hans Hubner a while ago and that used to allow me to use
sudo to fix a few things here and there.  I just tried it today since
sudoers have been asked to fix what they consider would be
useful to put back into service but has been a casualty of the
recent server migration. My attempt showed that my sudo
access does not work anymore, and I suspect that this is the case
for the rest of the members of the "admin" group.
Basically, when I do sudo it now fails at the personal password
validation step.

Somebody with real root access will need to fix this.
Otherwise I suspect the effective set of sudoers will
have shrunk significantly.

Cheers,

Jean-Claude Beaudoin

Antoniotti Marco — 2013-04-22T12:16:31

Dear all,

I understand that the service provided by cl.net is purely voluntary, free and that yadda, yadda, yadda.

But the pages appearing when one goes to http://common-lisp.net is simply not useful.

The main thing missing is the list of projects.  Where is it?  Also, the mailing lists do not appear to work anymore.  Not just a few.

Also, I do not understand why, even if "the server must move" it also had to "move to a complicated web infrastructure that has many more things that can go wrong".

I don't know about other people, but I'd vote for the restoration of the previous version of the overall infrastructure.


All the best...

Drew Crampsie — 2013-04-08T12:06:21

Hey, 

Common-lisp.net has been going through a massive migration. As
stated[1], the server that cl-net was running on is not longer.

This friday was the last day of that server, and I have been working all
weekend to try and finish things off. 

On of the major issues was the email hosting. It was exim4 and mailman
for the lists, both of which I did not like. So I spent today migrating
to postfix, dovecot and mlmmj for mailing lists[2].

This is the first list that I have tried beyond my own personal tests,
so consider this a test post! If you happen to get this, please respond to me.
You could also CC the list if you so desire... my hope is that some do
and some don't.

Resigning as c-l.net administrator

Hans Hübner — 2012-12-05T20:13:55

Hi folks,

I have decided that after a few years, I do no longer want to be
operating common-lisp.net - It was fun, but it is time to move on.  I
have been dealing with mailman administration (handling bounces,
occasional password changes, list creation), and with user and project
administration.

I will be responding to RT requests until the end of this year.
Afterwards, I won't do it anymore.  I'll also revoke my own root
access.

If anyone reading this wants to seize responsibility and get some
guidance from me, let me know.

Cheers,
Hans
