serving files from box4
by Chris Cunnington 07 Apr '14

07 Apr '14

locator at: (ALPath / 'favicon.ico') put: (ALFileResource on: (FSLocator imageDirectory / 'squeakfavicon.ico') resolve) This code is in the current squeak.org image for the favicon, which is a file in the imageDirectory. The simplest thing is for Altitude to be fed a path to wherever Levente wants to put the files for the homepage. The files currently served from my webpage could then be dropped into that directory. Then I can change the absolute references to my site to the disk from: html footer: [ html img src: 'http://www.chriscunnington.com/poweredsqueak.png']. to something like: html footer: [ html img src: (ALPath / 'poweredbysqueak.png') ]. That is if the image will handle it's own files. If we are separating static and dynamic requests in nginx for speed and such, then I think I need to change the links to something in Altitude like: html footer: [ html img src: '/img/foo.jpg' ]. with a locator like: locator at: (ALPath / 'img' / 'foo.jpg') put: (ALFileResource on: FSReference * 'img' / 'foo.jpg') where nginx sees the token /img/ and sends the request to wherever the static files are served from.

SMServer beta online
by Chris Cunnington 01 Apr '14

01 Apr '14

http://box4.squeak.org:9971/seaside/ss Here's a beta to replace map.squeak.org. Not all of the features work (Join, New Proejct, Save in the Your Project form). I didn't see much point in doing everything until qmail is installed on box4. It's Seaside2.8 and SS2. (Well, I've removed Magritte and re-installed SSTableReport, so perhaps I'm hacking SS2Retro). I'll save SS2Retro to its own repo. I'll then push SMServer to the SqueakServices repo. Chris

squeak.org issues list
by Chris Cunnington 31 Mar '14

31 Mar '14

cc'd to box-admins, as there's some overlap squeak.org issues list: - zip resources for faster download - use minified versions of files - get that 404 image (broken paper showing a code browser) out of my email Archive and install - check multi platform layouts (i.e. cell phone, tablet) - doesn’t work on IE8 - sometimes hogs the CPU, needs to be watched

squeak.org code available at new SqueakServices repo
by Chris Cunnington 31 Mar '14

31 Mar '14

http://ss3.gemtalksystems.com/ss/SqueakServices.html I've created a repo on SS3 where the source for squeak.org can be found. SQSqueakApplication has an Altitude Installer script in the class comment. Chris

new website and webteam (was: serving files from box4)
by Chris Muller 29 Mar '14

29 Mar '14

Levente is right, we need to get the new website set up under a webteam id, that only has access to what it needs for the website. Chris C., yourself, and Timothy (if he wants), and I'm interested too, added as group members. This would take care of the immediate security need, as well as distribute some of the burden currently concentrated on Chris C. Chris C., is this something you would like to handle or would you prefer someone else do it?

box3 old Altitude image stopped
by Chris Cunnington 25 Mar '14

25 Mar '14

I killed the Altitude process on box3, as the homepage is launched on box4. I figure it's just eating cycles that could be better spent on Jenkins and SqueakSource. Chris

serving files from box4
by Chris Cunnington 19 Mar '14

19 Mar '14

It's not ideal to serve squeak.org's resources files from my website forever, so how do we serve files from box4? I'm going to post this idea and leave it for a week before I change anything. I figure a week is enough time for people to look at the question. nginx serves files from /usr/share/nginx/. It's default is /usr/share/nginx/html. The basic directive looks like this: location / { root /usr/share/nginx/html; index index.html index.htm; } I'm thinking we have directories for each service in the default directory: /usr/share/nginx/ftp /usr/share/nginx/map /usr/share/nginx/source /usr/share/nginx/wiki /usr/share/nginx/www /usr/share/nginx/lists We could add a new subdomain called "files" and serve from it. http://files.squeak.org/map http://files.squeak.org/ftp http://files.squeak.org/source http://files.squeak.org/wiki http://files.squeak.org/www http://files.squeak.org/lists Thanks, Chris

box2 process terminated for old homepage
by Chris Cunnington 17 Mar '14

17 Mar '14

I went into box2 and killed the old homepage image. You can see the line that was the process here [1]. This also involved deleting the symlink as well. [2] The service directory in /home/website is now gone as well. The wildcard DNS routes unknown subdomain requests to some daemontools service for looking at old mailing lists. I don't think it's a process. It's some kind of cgi-bin thing. Check it out: http://foobar.squeak.org Deleting symlinks and service directories is a tad barbaric. I'm getting under svc -d /service/fooservice and such to stop services instead. But this is a sunset box. By St. Patrick's Day next year, it will be gone.

I took the liberty of creating an account for Tobias Pape on the old box2 server so he could look into helping configure DNS. Ken
