Hi, How do the beta.boost.org and live.boost.org (i.e., www.boost.org) directories are updated? Is there a cron job running to update the page or SVN commit hook is used or such? We are just about to update the DNS record for beta.boost.org and www.boost.org and this change would not cause any downtime. Regards, -- - DongInn On May 23, 2013, at 4:43 PM, Beman Dawes wrote:

Any news from Beman?

I've sent a private rely, listing the DNS information.

OK, can I put the following line right after the last "svn up" line in the post commit hook script to update the web pages of the new web server until svn.boost.org is migrated to the new server? /opt/python-2.6/bin/fab -f /home/www/fabric/fabfile.py update_website The above line would update the web pages of the new server. Once this change works fine, I will ask Beman to update the DNS record. Regards, -- - DongInn On May 23, 2013, at 5:26 PM, Daniel James wrote:

It's done in an SVN post commit hook. You can see a copy of it at:

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

The update is at the end. Hopefully you know the location to update this on the server? I can see the file in a couple of places.

I see. I put the command to the boost SVN post commit hook script and then I just rsynced Rene's $HOME to the new server:/home/grafik.

Also, have you rsynced the contents of '/u/grafik/www.boost.org/archives/live'? This is where the documentation is stored. There should be softlinks to this directory from /home/www/live.boost.org/doc/archives and /home/www/beta.boost.org/doc/archives.

I believe that the new website also has the proper link for them too now. Rene, can you please work on the new server once the DNS record is updated? Regards, -- - DongInn On May 23, 2013, at 6:26 PM, Daniel James wrote:

Hi Rene, Well, all you have to do is do the same thing in the new server (wowbagger.crest.iu.edu) as you have done on the current wowbagger? Can you tell me if you find any issues on running your scripts on the new server? Regards, -- - DongInn On May 23, 2013, at 9:28 PM, Rene Rivera wrote:

Well, actually you have to make your client machine look at the new sever when you access www.boost.org. For example, I tricked my client by adding the following line to /etc/hosts 129.79.13.33 www.boost.org So, after your /etc/hosts has the above entry, whenever you access www.boost.org, it will go to the virtual host (www.boost.org) of new server which is supposed to host the boost web site in the very new future. Please let me know if you still have a problem after you have the updated /etc/hosts. I have tested this on linux and mac machines and they work fine. I have no idea how to trick this on Windows though yet. Regards, -- - DongInn On May 23, 2013, at 9:43 PM, Rene Rivera wrote:

None of the documentation links work. For example < http://wowbagger.crest.iu.edu/doc/libs/release/more/getting_started/>. Most likely because the PHP scripts and/or the .htaccess are not being used?

Great! Rene, so then can I forget about rsynching your $HOME any more (i.e., can I expect that you will keep working on the new server machine)? Do you have any scripts to run on the new machine like the current wowbagger machine? Regards, -- - DongInn On May 23, 2013, at 10:35 PM, Rene Rivera wrote:

Yes, I will rsync your $HOME until the DNS record is updated. Then, please do not work on a new machine until the DNS is switched. Of course, once the DNS is switched, you have to use the new server only. Regards, -- - DongInn On May 23, 2013, at 11:39 PM, Rene Rivera wrote:

As part my checking earlier I logged in and nothing was amiss. But since I'm not the only one pushing data into the server what I would suggest is to turn off the rsync as soon as the DNS is switched. If there are any stragglers still hitting the old server after the DNS switch it should be OK as it's only intermittent data that might get lost which is just fine. We can deal with any problems that crop up after the switch as they happen.

Rene.

Hi Daniel, Do have an account in the current server (wowbagger.osl.iu.edu)? It seems that I can not find yours.

Great! Thank Beman for taking care of the DNS record. Mine shows the old address yet. Let's see what happens in an hour. Regards, -- - DongInn On May 24, 2013, at 2:06 PM, Beman Dawes wrote:

DNS for beta.boost.org and live.boost.org updated.

(The other records, including www.boost.org, were not changed.)

In theory this can take up to one hour to propagate to DNS servers worldwide. In practice I started getting the new addresses almost instantly.

HTH,

Hi Beman,

Should boost.org and www2.boost.org also be switched?

Thanks for asking this but I was not sure what other services are using boost.org. I just double checked it and I confirm that there are no other services using the "boost.org" hostname but the web service. It would be safe to switch boost.org too. But we have not moved www2.boost.org yet. So please do not switch www2.boost.org yet. BTW, I think Daniel mentioned that you guys may want to remove it. Regards, -- - DongInn On May 24, 2013, at 4:15 PM, Beman Dawes wrote:

www.boost.org is now (4:10pm ET) also switched.

That leaves these still pointing to the old address:

boost.org boostcon.boost.org lists.boost.org svn.boost.org wiki.boost.org www2.boost.org

Should boost.org and www2.boost.org also be switched?

I'm not sure what its purpose is, so I'll let Daniel decide that one.

It was intended to be used as a new site for boost, but it never went anywhere. I think it should be removed. Also, does anyone know who I should talk to about the old boostcon site?

I would suggest Ray Fix (... at gmail.com), who handles most of the cppnow.org stuff.

Thanks, I've sent him an email.

Hi Daniel, I would like to restrict the sudo access only to the system admin for the new server now.

OK, Daniel.

Actually there is one thing. Please can you create a directory in /home/www/ where we can store extra files needed for the site. Perhaps something like /home/www/shared, although if you prefer another name. Just somewhere to place the documentation files, test results and things like that. Thanks.
