[clo-devel] Putting statistics back into service.
by Jean-Claude Beaudoin 30 Jun '11

30 Jun '11

Hello common-lisp.net admins, I would like to propose my services to put back into service the download statistics that used to be available on the "stats" page before the machine upgrade. The currently available files date back to May 7, about 7 weeks ago. I already have an account on common-lisp.net for my MKCL and CL+J projects. My user name is: jcbeaudoin So I guess that a simple change in its group memberships is all that is needed to give me the required access to do the work (ie: modify the cron script and maybe read the content of /var/log/apache2). Cheers, Jean-Claude Beaudoin

[clo-devel] common-lisp.net domain registration expiring soon
by Daniel Pezely 24 Jun '11

24 Jun '11

The domain registration for common-lisp.net expires in a couple of days. I'm willing to cover the cost of 5+ year renewal. If the Donate button on the site will get funds to the right person, we can handle it that way. Alternatively, I can call the registrar and simply give them my credit card info directly. Please confirm or suggest how to do the donation/payment, and tell me the amount. (For domain only services with the same registrar, I believe it's US$70 for one year US$135 for five and US$235 for nine, which is the maximum duration that they'll allow.) Is the plan to remain with the existing registrar? Why five or more years: For search engine optimization (SEO) reasons, it's better to have a far future expiration. That is, certain search engines factor this into their ranking. It's based upon belief that domains of official organizations intend to keep the domain and therefore renew for several years at a time. An examples, Wikipedia and Lisp.org have expirations of 2015 and 2016, respectively. Also, there have been issues in past of this particular domain expiring and someone (Xach, perhaps?) doing an emergency payment to keep it going. Let's just take care of it. Thanks, -Daniel -- first name at last name dot com

What can it be that takes so long? Do all these huge, long-running batch jobs make sense at all? Would it not be better if we had one batch job that does all the required regular scans sequentially? -Hans On Mon, Jun 20, 2011 at 1:00 PM, Cron Daemon <root(a)common-lisp.net> wrote: > process already running, exiting >

I've removed CVS repository creation from the 'add-project' script because of it (actually, just commented out, not deleted). Bye, Erik.

[clo-devel] common-lisp.net downloading 100GB from itself?
by Erik Huelsmann 12 Jun '11

12 Jun '11

Looking at http://common-lisp.net/cgi-bin/awstats.pl I see that common-lisp.net is one of the main visiting domains of common-lisp.net. In fact, it's the main downloader: ~100GB. It's probably the checkbot crawler which does this, maybe because it's downloading all variants of output being generated by a cgi script or something. That would also explain why it keeps filling up the /tmp volume. The question would be: which cgi script, so we can prevent this behaviour... Bye, Erik.

[clo-devel] Cron job to check available disk vs nagios?
by Erik Huelsmann 11 Jun '11

11 Jun '11

Hi, While working on turning back on all the cron jobs that we are running on cl-net, I found there's a cron job to check available disk space. Shouldn't we be using other software, like nagios, to monitor the services? Maybe we can write plugins/task scripts to do any of the cl-net specific tasks, but having a framework like that sounds better. Bye, Erik.

[clo-devel] On Volunteering
by Hans Hübner 10 Jun '11

10 Jun '11

Hi, I have received off-list email regarding my posting about using nagios vs. some home-brew disk space monitoring mechanism. I don't have the time to discuss this at length, but I'd urge everyone not to waste their time with meta discussions. We need disk space monitoring, and we need someone who wants to set it up and maintain it. binghe volunteered, and I am confident that he'll come up with something that works and that he likes to keep running. Most importantly, it is something that he likes to do. I find it rather unpleasant to read advice from people with respect to the tools. We are not an operation where some tells someone else what to do, we do what we like for a common good. If you feel like you're in a tell-me-what-to-do-operation, I'll gladly play boss for you. -Hans
