[heroes] Request a server to host a PHP proxy script
by Guo Yunhe 05 Jun '19

05 Jun '19

Hi, I made a command line tool to search OBS and Packman packages. https://github.com/openSUSE-zh/opi <https://github.com/openSUSE-zh/opi> To avoid storing passwords on client side, I created a proxy script which will host all credentials and forward API requests. https://github.com/openSUSE-zh/opi/blob/master/proxy/index.php <https://github.com/openSUSE-zh/opi/blob/master/proxy/index.php> Currently, the script is hosted on my own server. It might not be trusted by some users. So I want to host the PHP script in one of openSUSE's servers. By now, it doesn't have many users, so the load shouldn't be heavy. Thanks! -- Guo Yunhe / @guoyunhe / guoyunhe.me -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: heroes+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: heroes+owner(a)opensuse.org

[heroes] The Times They Are a-Changin'
by Thorsten Bro | openSUSE Heroes 04 Jun '19

04 Jun '19

Hi all, Out of several reasons and after a long time thinking about me, myself and my future development, I decided to take an offer from another company that I got, so effective from 2019-07-17 (my last day at SUSE), I will no longer be working for SUSE. It was a fun time that I spent with you over the last approx. 3 years. And I enjoyed it a lot. We mastered all the fun but also the challenging and tough topics that appeared over this time. I can't say, I will not miss it. What I liked the most is, to meet all of you amazing people in the openSUSE project working on driving a huge big Stegosaurus-size Chameleon in the right direction. I tried to do my best, to help here and there to keep the Chameleon moving forward and helping getting it back on track if it goes off the path. An honest and deeply grateful THANK YOU goes especially to the people who helped rocking the openSUSE conferences over the last 4 years (2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019) - I guess we did a great service to the world and community out there, although they maybe could not join the events in-person. This you can see from the view counts as well [1] - which are sometimes higher than the number of participants on-site. If you helped in the Video / Infrastructure teams of the last conferences, you know that I mean you - thanks a bunch - feel yourself hugged! I guess I will still use openSUSE on some of my machines, but I always was and always will be open to think outside the box. And there are still some challenges for openSUSE to become even better and more usable for "normal people like me ;)" on the Desktop - like booting a 32-Bit UEFI to a 64-Bit Processor, which is a crazy but Intel-favourite-power-and-cost-saving-architecture [2]. Sorry for buying such crappy hardware :). I did. Although, the next months I will definitely be busy with hand-over of my old job and getting on-boarded on my new job, as you can imagine, I will try to help with the questions maybe arising in #openSUSE-admin [3] in Freenode and regarding the openSUSE Video team [4]. I will forward my (at)opensuse.org address to a private mail account of mine, so please feel free to contact me via this address if needed. But please keep in mind, as soon as I leave SUSE mid-of-July, I will lose my internal access rights and will no longer be able to access the hardware or software "behind the scenes". So I can make this true openSUSE-Heroes-experience in the end - which I only knew from the other side over the last years. Until than, we still have 1.5 months left of course to tinker on things. I will -of course- still be part of the C3VOC [5] like I am since approx. 10 years and video recording and live streaming of free/open source related events will still be my passion. As I hope to be able to support the openSUSE events with video recording and live streaming in the future - I also hope that the openSUSE video team will keep on partnering with the C3VOC - as we did in the past - for example, to help making events happen like "FrOSCon 2018", "FrOSCon 2017" and "Qt World Summit 2017" - which the C3VOC could handle because we were able to use the openSUSE hardware for some rooms on these events. (More than the CCC hardware could have handled on their own.) I don't know yet, who will take-over my responsibilities - like organizing the pushing-around of the openSUSE video hardware in the SUSE building in Nuremberg and making sure it arrives at several events on-time. But this is a call-out to the volunteers as well who are working at SUSE and could maybe help with this. If you feel yourself in a position to move those boxes and organize some transportation with some delivery companies, feel free to reach out to me. Without making this mail too long, let me say the following words. I enjoyed the time and working with you and wish you all the best for the future. I hope we stay in contact.

[heroes] I am interested in maintaining keyserver.opensuse.org
by Bryan Stephenson 31 May '19

31 May '19

Hello, I was surprised to notice today that this service is deprecated. I think it is an important service and I am interested in maintaining it in operation, depending on what that would entail. I have 30 years of experience administering Unix/Linux systems and keeping the applications running on them operational and secure. What help do you need to get this service back online? I accidentally sent this email to the ticketing system a few minutes ago. I tried to close the ticket [1] but it seems I don't have permission to close it.

[heroes] Xorg.0.log attached as type text/x-log

Is there a way for my account to be given permission to change these plain text attachments to text/plain? When I click the details link, instead of being able to edit, the browser suggests I open in Notepad, which AFAIK does not exist on Linux. e.g. https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/attachment.cgi?id=804198 -- Evolution as taught in public schools is religion, not science.

[heroes] Gitlab deploy_job fun
by Christian Boltz 28 Apr '19

28 Apr '19

Hello, it looks like the deploy_job on gitlab is broken: https://gitlab.infra.opensuse.org/infra/salt/-/jobs/4070 $ sudo salt-call event.fire_master $CI_DEPLOY_PASSWORD salt/fileserver/ gitfs/update [ERROR ] Exception during resolving address: [Errno 1] Unknown host local: True Job succeeded Note that there are two errors included - first the "Unknown host", and second that the job gets marked as succeeded nevertheless. (For the records: running highstate on tsp.infra.o.o shows that nothing was deployed.) For bonus fun: I can't ssh to minnie - I only get "Connection closed by $IP port 22". Can someone please check (and fix) whatever broke? Note that this happened before, so it might be a good idea to spend a few minutes on finding out why ssh login broke. Regards, Christian Boltz -- [Newbie] und wenn wir wollen, daß er ein brauchbarer Regular wird, dann müssen wir uns den korrekt konfigurieren. Nun leider/zum Glück handelt es um einen Menschen.
