Hi Marina, I am not certain what it could be. I'm just getting back from holiday and a conference. I'm ccing openSUSE Heroes to see if they could provide an explanation for why the message was denied to opensuse-marketing(a)opensuse.org. v/r Doug On 03/24/2017 05:47 PM, Marina Latini wrote: > same issue with the it m-list :( > > On 24 March 2017 at 17:35, Marina Latini <deneb.alphacygni(a)gmail.com > <mailto:deneb.alphacygni@gmail.com>> wrote: > > Hi Douglas, > > I sent 2 messages to the marketing m-list but I got a denied message. > > " > The message from <deneb.alphacygni(a)gmail.com > <mailto:deneb.alphacygni@gmail.com>> with subject "Italy - Gonzaga > "1000 maker" fair" was unable to be delivered to the list because > of an > access rule set up by the list administrator. > " > > " > The message from <deneb_alpha(a)opensuse.org > <mailto:deneb_alpha@opensuse.org>> with subject "Italy - Gonzaga > "1000 maker" fair" was unable to be delivered to the list because > of an > access rule set up by the list administrator. > " > > Any idea? wrong m-list address? > > ATB, > Marina > > -- > Marina Latini > www.documentfoundation.org <http://www.documentfoundation.org> > http://www.libreitalia.it > openSUSE Advocate: deneb_alpha > > > > > -- > Marina Latini > www.documentfoundation.org <http://www.documentfoundation.org> > http://www.libreitalia.it > openSUSE Advocate: deneb_alpha

[heroes] [Junior job] Checking planet.opensuse.org feeds
by Christian Boltz 27 Mar '17

27 Mar '17

Hello, I have a nice task for someone who wants to get started with some easy admin tasks ;-) I spent some time to check if / how many of the feeds on planet.opensuse.org are broken - after two obvious fixes (see pull request 48), I noticed 36 broken feeds. You can find my test script and the list of currently broken feeds attached to https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/16070 The next steps are - re-check the broken feeds in a few days to filter out temporary outages (this can be done using my script) - have a quick look at the domain of each feed to see if there's an obvious, easy fix (for example, does the RSS feed have a new filename?) - otherwise, find out how to contact the affected users [1] and mail/$whatever them, asking if they have a new blog or if we should "just" remove the broken feed - for each result, update the feed list and send a pull request ;-) The feed list (which also includes IRC nicks etc.) is in "planetsuse/feeds" on https://github.com/opensuse/planet.opensuse.org and everybody who knows how to fork a repo can help ;-) Help is more than welcome - it will need some time, but besides that, it's quite easy. If someone wants to pick this up, just send a short notice (here or in the ticket) to avoid duplicate work. If you need some help to get started, just ask ;-) Regards, Christian Boltz [1] connect.opensuse.org and "osc whois" might be useful tools. For people who have an IRC nick listed, pinging them on IRC might also work. -- * cboltz votes for the boring version - can't <sarnold> that's a bit informal for a mandatory security platform :) <sbeattie> ah, but you see, contractions are informal, and we can't, err can not, err cannot, err can ?not have that.

[heroes] Salt: file naming
by Christian Boltz 08 Mar '17

08 Mar '17

Hello, as you probably all know in the meantime, profile/foo.sls is the same as profile/foo/init.sls (at least from Salt's POV - both are "profile.foo") To keep the main directories in our Salt repo clean, can we please apply the following policy? - if there's only foo.sls, but no foo/ directory, use foo.sls - if a foo/ subdirectory exists, use foo/init.sls (NOT foo.sls) - if you add a foo/ directory later, move foo.sls to foo/init.sls In practise, this means for our current salt repo: a) files to move: - salt/profile/accounts.sls -> salt/profile/accounts/init.sls - salt/profile/zypper.sls -> salt/profile/zypper/init.sls b) unchanged: - salt/profile/regional.sls (because there's no salt/profile/regional/ subdirectory) - lots of files in other directories ;-) I'd like to apply this policy for all directories, even if it currently only affects salt/profile/ If nobody objects, I'll document this in the wiki in a few days. FYI: This started in the discussion of https://gitlab.opensuse.org/infra/salt/merge_requests/4 You'll find some more verbose comments there ;-) Regards, Christian Boltz -- Tut mir leid. Tu hast dich dafür entschieden, Computer zu benutzen. Aus irgendeinem Grunde glaubst du, das sei risikofrei. Ich versichere dir, daß es das nicht ist.

[heroes] Scheduled downtime for lists.opensuse.org Wednesday 2017-03-08 13:00 UTC
by Theo Chatzimichos 08 Mar '17

08 Mar '17

Hello, on Wednesday 2017-03-08 from 13:00 UTC till 15:00 UTC, the VM that hosts the openSUSE Mailing lists [1] will be offline. During that time, sending or receiving mails to the openSUSE mailing lists, or viewing their archives will not be possible. All the mails that will be sent during the downtime will be delayed. The reason for the downtime is to apply major upgrades to both the operating system and the mailing list software. We will let you know of the final status with a followup announcement.

[heroes] team's presentation at oSC17
by Theo Chatzimichos 07 Mar '17

07 Mar '17

Hello, fyi, I have submitted a talk for oSC17 to present our team and the openSUSE infrastructure. The title I chose is "openSUSE Heroes fighting the villains", and possibly I'll have a nerdy oldschool comics theme. I am open to suggestions on what you'd like me to say there. Lars and Gerhard, can I have please your past presentations' slides for the opensuse infrastructure, mirrorbrain and anything else relevant? https://events.opensuse.org/conference/oSC17/program/proposal/1288 Also I plan to submit yet another talk regarding configuration management (as I do pretty much every year), haven't decided yet on the topic though. -- Theo Chatzimichos <tampakrap(a)opensuse.org> <tchatzimichos(a)suse.com> System Administrator SUSE Operations and Services Team

[heroes] Mirror problems
by Lars Vogdt 07 Mar '17

07 Mar '17

Hi At least since today we have a problem with files that are on - at least - some mirrors, but are not "known" to our Apache on download.o.o: http://download.opensuse.org/update/leap/42.1/oss/repodata/5463ed3723287e7e… lists only the download server itself - while at least seven other mirrors have the file available. * I tried a rescan of those mirrors - no result * I reconfigured download.o.o to use the master database (download.o.o normally uses just a slave, but this might have lags that I don't see) - no result Testing is done via: mb probefile --hide-negative update/leap/42.1/oss/repodata/5463ed3723287e7e3efbdbd2b04bd9ed97a617701c3432f6677c26d6f98e7f4b-primary.xml.gz http://mirror.datto.com/opensuse/update/leap/42.1/oss/repodata/5463ed372328… http://widehat.opensuse.org/update/leap/42.1/oss/repodata/5463ed3723287e7e3… http://ftp2.nluug.nl/os/Linux/distr/opensuse/update/leap/42.1/oss/repodata/… ... As the "probefile" command lists mirrors, that are NOT listed by apache, I asume that the latest changes for IPv6 support might broke something. Can you please check and/or help with the problem? At the moment, all worldwide requests (at least for this file) are only handled via download.o.o - which loads even a 1Gb line without problems... Thanks in advance!
