Re: [boost] Migrating www.boost.org to another server

Hi Daniel, Thanks for following up with this. I have rsyched live.boost.org and beta.boost.org so that we can simply run the script to update the website on the new server. I do not see any complexities. Regards, -- - DongInn On May 20, 2013, at 8:12 AM, Daniel James wrote:

First, we would like to migrate www.boost.org and beta.boost.org which are not dependent on any other services and domains at all.

The data of www.boost.org and beta.boost.org can be simply moved but I need someone's help who can switch the domain record to make these two hostnames point to the new server.

I don't think it's that simple. Those sites are automatically updated in a subversion post commit hook, which looks like it needs to be on the same server. The code is:

# # Update boost website # WEBDIR=/home/www/beta.boost.org cd $WEBDIR svn up cd /home/www/live.boost.org svn up

I'm not sure where this is on the server. I got it from:

http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/trunk/tools/server/subversion/hooks/

As part of the git transition, we're going to need to trigger updating the site from another machine, but I don't know what the plan for that is. I think David Abrahams had some sort of plan, so I'm cc-ing him.

Who can I talk to about this domain migration?

Beman Dawes I think. I guess he was at C++Now for the last week, so he might have missed this, so I've cc-ed him as well.
