Well, I'm not hopeful... It seems the form I filled in simply generated an email that looks like I sent the email myself. The email was sent to a sig.int hostname. (?) The message was sent back to me with the error message indicating that an internal file on the mail server was 'too large'. But maybe this wasn't the only email generated and it was also sent elsewhere.

Well, here's the problem: <squeaklist(a)pacbell.net>: Connected to 207.115.36.21 but sender was rejected.

RE: [Box-Admins] Source.squeak.org Down
by Ken Causey 22 May '12

22 May '12

With Chris Cunnington's assistance I believe source.squeak.org is back up and running correctly. We spent a while trying to figure out what went wrong but ultimately ended up just restoring the most recently backed up images/changes and restarting it. The backup is only about 5 hours old so hopefully nothing was lost. That said it was noticed that the most recent addition to the inbox (Morphic-kb.619.mcz from Balázs Kósi) has no corresponding notification on the packages list. The entry in SqueakSource for it seems to be fine and the mcz in the file system tests find with unzip -t as being a complete zip file. So it seems the server failure occurred at some point while sending the email notification, which is not to say it is actually directly related to sending the notification. Anyway, if you have done anything on source.squeak.org today, it's probably worth a few minutes to confirm it was not overwritten by restoring from backup.

Source.squeak.org Down
by Ken Causey 22 May '12

22 May '12

About 20-30 minutes ago I did my usual rounds checking the status of the services we host on the community server. I found that source.squeak.org was only serving up a small part of the HTML of the page and then stopping. I tried restarting it but this did not change anything. So I shut it down again, started up a VNC server instance for it, and restarted it at which point it is now running under VNC. On connecting via VNC I found that for some reason on the service (HTTPService/TCPService) it is finding it's desired port, 9090, already in the assigned ports list. I'm working out what is going on, or at least trying to get it running properly again now. It has been a while since I've fiddled much with Seaside and related. If anyone would like to assist it would be appreciated. You can find me on Skype (kencausey) if you like. Ken

It's unused so far, and discussion on future versions should happen here on squeak-dev anyway. - Bert -

The server is back up now and has been for a bit it appears. I've received no information and the server was restarted not quite an hour and a half ago.

Aida/SqueakSite in Squeak 4.3
by Chris Cunnington 03 May '12

03 May '12

Aida, Swazoo2, and Scribo load into 4.3 well enough with several ConfigurationOfXXXs. Starting it with "SwazooAida demoStart" produces a site at localhost:8888. From there if you start to explore the demo "self halt" exceptions appear. I tried to load our site, squeak.org, SqueakSite-janko.18.mcz, and it says that "WebComponent" is required to proceed. I imagine in the three-and-a-half years since a new version was uploaded (Halloween 2008) Aida and Scribo have moved on a bit. In short, to get our homepage running on a current version of Aida and Scriboo in Squeak 4.3 would take some fitting, but nothing much. It's a great site, so it's well worth it. Chris
