Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 2266
Specify upload path on extranet
Last modified: 2003-12-06 14:52:32 UTC
Files uploaded via scp to sf1.mirror are not visible at http://sf1.mirror 1) Could you explain where the appropriate upload area is? 2) Should we see uploads in real time (because the web server is showing the same area of the file system) or is human intervention needed? 2b) if not, at which times are the areas synchronized (assuming this is done via cron job)? 3) at which times are sf1 and ny1 synchronized (assuming this is done via cron job)?
Hi, I've assigned an internal issue to this problem, #6639. -louis

... but the answers to my questions are still missing. I really would like to understand the underlying mechanism. P1 -> P2 as the files for 641b are up now.
P1 -> P2
My understanding was that Gabby had told Sander *where* to upload the files, and that the problem was that he was uploading them to the *wrong* directory. Unless I am in error, Sander should now know where to upload the files. I'll leave reopened, but would like to have confirmation from sander that he knows the path for uploading; also, I would like to post on the extranet the path and protcols for uploading files to the sf1.mirror.openoffice.org. changing issue heading to reflect change in mission. -louis
Second attempt: Can we agree on which the correct upload direcory is? The one told to me previously for 641b (/home/upload/data) does not actually seem to be the one monitored by the web script. So to make sure i don't end up uploading it all to a "wrong" place again, can the location be written down for further reference in this issue this time? Raising back to P1
try this: /home/upload/openoffice/data as the generic, and add the build number after it, /641c, for instance. It would be best to create a local dir called 641c w/ whatever in it, and scp that whole dir into /home/upload/openoffice/data that way the 641c dir will be automatically created. i will write it up asap meanwhile, let us use this issue as record. -louis
Sander is just uploading and we don't see any files on sf1. I would like to see my questions answered: 2) Should we see uploads in real time (because the web server is showing the same area of the file system) or is human intervention needed? 2b) if not, at which times are the areas synchronized (assuming this is done via cron job)? 3) at which times are sf1 and ny1 synchronized (assuming this is done via cron job)?
Stefan, From discussions with MT, the way things work on sf1 is: A script is run every 5 minutes to check the upload directory for changes. When a change is found in progress, the directory will be checked again on the next 5 minute cycle. If the upload has been completed an md5 sum is generated. After the md5 sum is generated, the files are rsync'd to a seperate directory on sf1 and to ny1. In total in could take 15 minutes or more for the files to be visible through the http interface to either sf1 or ny1. Thank you Kat
thanks for the info about the underlying mechanism.
Reassigning support@ issues to issues@www so louis can go through these.
this has been resolved, but I would like to formally document the procedure and post it to the extranet. So am keeping it open. louis
accepted
this has been done. closing. louis
As agreed with Louis, we can close all the resolved fixed issues he owns.
