[heroes] progress.o.o down
by Christian Boltz 29 Oct '19

29 Oct '19

Hello, progress.o.o is down. Can someone please check what's going on and fix it? The "usual suspects" weren't too helpful: - ps aux: it looks like there's no redmine process running - "rcredmine restart" results in a green "done", but still no redmine process - /var/log/redmine/unicorn.log says master failed to start, check stderr log for details which is not too helpful ;-) In two cases there's another, not really helpful error message: in `reload': undefined local variable or method `debug' for #<Unicorn::Configurator:0x7fb8c0f07f28> (NameError) - the redmine production.log is very (too?) short. ... and that's more or less where my redmine knownledge ends. I just marked progress.o.o as down on status.o.o, and will let the infamous Mr. Someone Else fix it ;-) Regards, Christian Boltz -- Meine Katze hat zu der Maus auch gesagt: "Kannst ganz beruhigt sein, ich tu Dir nichts!"

[heroes] Heroes meeting in Nuremberg on Nov 15 - 17
by Karol Babioch 24 Oct '19

24 Oct '19

Hi heroes, it took a while to figure out the details, but I can hereby confirm that the openSUSE heroes meeting is going to happen this year. As previously announced it will be taking place on November 15 - 17 [1]. We have the facilities booked for the whole weekend and also some budget for travel costs, overnight stays and food ;-). So far ~10 people have registered in advance. Since I don't want to make this information public (without consent), I will reach out to each of you individually including some additional information. If anyone already registered does not get an email from me until the weekend, please do reach out to me! For anyone else still interested to participate, please let me know. We still have some seats left, but the sooner I know about it, the easier it will be to arrange for things. The details (agenda, etc.) we can discuss / agree on during our next heroes meeting (in IRC) and/or via mail on this list. For any private matters, feel free to contact me via mail. [1]: https://lists.opensuse.org/heroes/2019-10/msg00001.html Best regards, -- Karol Babioch <kbabioch(a)suse.de> Project Manager Engineering Infrastructure SUSE Software Solutions Germany GmbH (HRB 36809, AG Nürnberg) Geschäftsführer: Felix Imendörffer

[heroes] Planning for next heroes meeting in Nuremberg
by Karol Babioch 15 Oct '19

15 Oct '19

Hi all, during yesterday's regular heroes meeting (and also during last week's sync call with Engineering Infrastructure) the idea was discussed to organize another heroes meeting in Nuremberg (last year's meeting was apparently skipped). This will be a great opportunity for all of us to meet in person, get to know each other (better), and talk about strategy and ideas, etc. We are currently planning to make this happen on Nov 15 - Nov 17 in the SUSE main office. The rough planning (for now) looks like this: - Arrival in Nuremberg on Friday (in the afternoon / early evening) - Friday evening dinner - Working/Discussing/Hacking on Saturday - [Voluntary beer in the evening?] - Working/Discussing/Hacking on Sunday - Departure in the afternoon In order to get a better understanding of the magnitude of such a meeting this year, I would like to ask everyone who wants to join us on this weekend to drop me a short message (either publicly and/or in private), so that I get a better overview of how many persons we are talking about. This is _NOT_ a final commitment yet and the planning might still change quite a bit. Best regards, Karol Babioch

Hi Heroes, Maybe I'm just a bit impatient... I'm currently waiting for my openSUSE membership request to being answered. However, I cannot see inside my profile that this is actually pending. Could someone please check. ;) Thanks, Alex~ -- Alexander Bergmann <abergmann(a)suse.com>, Security Engineer, GPG:9FFA4886 SUSE Software Solutions Germany GmbH Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nuremberg, Germany (HRB 247165, AG München) Managing Director: Felix Imendörffer

[heroes] vpn keeps disconnecting?
by Per Jessen 08 Oct '19

08 Oct '19

For the last week or so, the opensuse vpn keeps disconnecting. In the past, it would be up for weeks and weeks. Has anything changed? -- Per Jessen, Zürich (15.4°C) Member, openSUSE Heroes -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: heroes+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: heroes+owner(a)opensuse.org

[heroes] We don't need another Hero
by Olav Reinert 04 Oct '19

04 Oct '19

Hi, My name is Olav Reinert, and I'd like to volunteer some of my time to help the openSUSE project by becoming a Hero. I'm not sure exactly what it takes to perform that role, but I'd like to submit the following as "qualifications": * I've been an openSUSE user for 15 years or so. * I started contributing packages to the distro about 5 years ago. * I run some server infrastructure at home. * My day job is Java application programming, and I also design and maintain a lot of Linux infrastructure at work. * I know another Hero, Per Jessen, personally - we live close to each other, and meet from time to time. * I have a Masters degree in computer science. >From what I've seen by looking over Per's shoulder during the monthly Heroes IRC meeting, and hearing about what is going on, I believe I can make a meaningful contribution. That's enough from me - looking forward to hear from you. Regards, Olav Reinert -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: heroes+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: heroes+owner(a)opensuse.org

[heroes] Moving hostinfo wiki pages into salt pillar/id/
by Christian Boltz 03 Oct '19

03 Oct '19

Hello, as promised in the last meeting, I updated some pillar/id/ files to contain the basic machine info we currently have on wiki pages like https://progress.opensuse.org/projects/opensuse-admin-wiki/wiki/ Annainfraopensuseorg The advantage of having the data in pillar/id/ files is that they are typically closer to reality, while the wiki pages are far away from salt and tend to be outdated. Please have a look at https://gitlab.infra.opensuse.org/infra/salt/merge_requests/266 and tell me if you like it this way or if I should change something. If nobody complains within a week, I'll assume you all like it, start to move the machine info of all servers to pillar/id/, and finally delete the wiki pages. Quick field description (with example values from daffy1): aliases: [] List of (internal) DNS aliases, or [] if none description: Login proxy for servers with authentication One-line, human-readable description of what the server does. documention: - https://progress.opensuse.org/projects/opensuse-admin-wiki/.... List of links to additional documentation, or [] if none responsible: [] List of admins that are responsible for a server - typically the person who "knows the server like his/her pocket". This doesn't exclude other admins from doing or fixing something on that server, but bigger changes should be discussed with the people mentioned here. If [], the server is looking for volunteers ;-) partners: - daffy2.infra.opensuse.org List of other servers that do the same job, and can take over if a server breaks or (more boring) gets rebooted. [] if there's only one server for that job. weburls: - https://login2.opensuse.org List of public URLs under which the server is reachable, or [] if a server doesn't provide public http or https services. Regards, Christian Boltz -- Some companies, when faced with a web security issue, think: "I know! We'll ship a root CA cert!" Now they are a web security issue.
