[heroes] New skin for wiki
by Guo Yunhe 03 Aug '17

03 Aug '17

Hi heroes, I have made a pull request for the new theme/skin of wiki. You can find some screenshots in the description. https://github.com/openSUSE/wiki/pull/9 The theme itself is based on Bootstrap and responsive. However, some page content, especially wide tables will break the layout. I will work on a solution later. Would like to hear feedback from you! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: heroes+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: heroes+owner(a)opensuse.org

[heroes] JFYI: download.o.o ....
by Lars Vogdt 27 Jul '17

27 Jul '17

Hi Just want to inform you about the things that happened around our mirror infrastructure in the last days.... First some Statistics: * 74 billion file entries in the mirrorbrain database * 43 mirrors for openSUSE-Tumbleweed-DVD-i586-Current.iso * 31 mirrors for openSUSE-Tumbleweed-DVD-i586-Snapshot20170724-Media.iso * 62 mirrors for openSUSE-Leap-42.3-DVD-x86_64.iso * 73 mirrors for the Leap 42.3 oss repository * down to 4 open mirror tickets in progress.opensuse.org (3 of them really mirror related, feedback pending) * 207 active mirrors worldwide Done/doing: * cleanup of the apache configuration on download.o.o, which brought back the tumbleweed mirrors and removed old stuff (11.X, 12.X and also redirected all 13.X ) * finally removed 11.X, 12.X and 13.X from download.o.o - ~750G more space on download.o.o and our mirrors * rsync module cleanup on widehat and pontifex3 - the 13.X cleanup gave also more room for "other" stuff in the "hotstuff" modules * the DB-slave of mirrorbrain was out of sync with the DB-master - so the mirrorbrain database used by apache (which is using the read-only slave) was outdated. This was the major reason why we did not see enough mirrors for all repos. => currently running with the master only to avoid even the shortest downtime with kind regards, Lars -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: heroes+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: heroes+owner(a)opensuse.org

The wiki reports, "Sorry! We could not process your edit due to a loss of session data. You might have been logged out. Please verify that you're still logged in and try again. If it still does not work, try logging out and logging back in, and check that your browser allows cookies from this site." I most definitely am logged in, but did the logout-login sequence suggested with the same report when I tried to save my edit.

[heroes] TW mirrors serving USA in dismal state for over 4 hours
by Felix Miata 25 Jul '17

25 Jul '17

https://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse/2017-07/msg00933.html was first report I saw on a mailing list. It has multiple metos (one from me including a traceroute). zypper just took 17 minutes to fetch 56MiB kernel-default-4.11.8-2.2.x86_64.rpm using download.opensuse.org as the repo baseurl. Same file from ftp5.gwdg.de took 48 seconds with wget. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive." Proverbs 16:21 (New Living Translation) Team OS/2 ** Reg.

[heroes] Wiki updates
by Christian Boltz 19 Jul '17

19 Jul '17

Hello, sometimes plans change while you are working on them ;-) The plan for tonight was to move and update some of the localized wikis. Things worked better and faster than expected, and in the end we (Max, Theo and I) moved *all 18 localized wikis* from Provo to Nuremberg and updated them to MediaWiki 1.27 :-) This means *all* openSUSE wikis are now running on MediaWiki 1.27 and support the features announced for the english wiki last week. For probably obvious reasons, I didn't have time to change the <feed> tags to the new <rss> tags. I'll do that in the next days, but I won't complain if someone is faster and does it in some of the wikis ;-) There are two exceptions: old-en.o.o and old-de.o.o, which contain the historical content of the old german and english wiki before they were rebuilt from scratch some years ago. I have the data for them, but didn't update them yet because a) 18 wikis are enough for an evening ;-) and b) they were still running MediaWiki 1.15.1 (released in 2009!) which will make the update "a bit" more interesting[tm]. I didn't want to do this after midnight ;-) For those who are interested in statistics: - moving 18 wikis in about 6 hours means about 20 minutes per wiki - can someone beat this? ;-) [1] [2] - today's move came with about 500 lines on IRC to coordinate everything - this helped to keep the read-only time of each wiki short - I'd guess on average each wiki was read-only for 30 minutes (again, can someone beat this? ;-) - we moved about 10 GB of uploaded files and 1.6 GB of mysql dumps today (which was sometimes "funny" because the server in Provo is limited to a 10 MBit connection) Regards, Christian Boltz PS: I plan to make a news.o.o article and maybe also an announcement mail based on the above, so if you notice anything that should be changed, added or removed, please tell me ;-) [1] I still can't believe this myself ;-) [2] Of course this was only possible with "some" preparation (having all directories, empty databases etc. ready). And I probably don't need to mention that I spent several months on preparing the update of the english wiki. The other wikis were just "me too" migrations ;-) -- The speed at which a mistyped command executes is directly proportional to the amount of damage done.
