stfx.eu down

Sven Van Caekenberghe-2
Hi,

This evening I somehow broke my stfx.eu server while doing an ubuntu dist upgrade (an old AWS EC2 machine).

This means several websites / web services hosted by that machine are down, most notably mc.stfx.eu (hosting several of my packages) and ws.stfx.eu (used for shared smalltalk workspaces). A couple of Zinc tests will also fail.

For source code access, all my public repos exist both in an up to date form on GitHub (http://github.com/svenvc) as well in the original form in SmalltalkHub (http://smalltalkhub.com/#!/~SvenVanCaekenberghe) or SS3.

The main problem there is that the distributed ConfigurationsOf and Catalog entries will still point to the original. This is not a problem with git's BaselineOf definitions.

Although the machine will no longer boot, I managed to mount the original volume on another instance so I can still access the whole filesystem. This will make it possible to eventually recover most services. But this will take time as these things never happen when it is convenient. It will give me an opportunity to modernise the setup though, which is good.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Sven

I wonder if there is a way to get all the relevant configs in an image to
point to the smalltalkhub repo instead of the mc.stfx.eu repo temporarily.


In Pharo 6.1 if a person wants to switch away from the mc.stfx.eu domain in
their ConfigurationOf* and BaselineOf* specs you can right click on a
package in Nautilus, choose "Rewrite code" then choose "Rewrite code" again
and paste each of the below into the box and save it to rewrite the
repository definition.

RBParseTreeRewriter new
        replace: '''http://mc.stfx.eu/ZincHTTPComponents''' with:
'''http://smalltalkhub.com/mc/SvenVanCaekenberghe/ZincHTTPComponents/main''';
        yourself

RBParseTreeRewriter new
        replace: '''http://mc.stfx.eu/Zodiac''' with:
'''http://smalltalkhub.com/mc/SvenVanCaekenberghe/Zodiac/main''';
        yourself

RBParseTreeRewriter new
        replace: '''http://mc.stfx.eu/Neo''' with:
'''http://smalltalkhub.com/mc/SvenVanCaekenberghe/Neo/main''';
        yourself


to "fix" Zinc, Zodiac, and Neo respectively.

Hi Sven,

Thanks for the heads up. stfx has been really useful when sharing
playgrounds in workshops and hackathons, and of course we can wait until
modernization ends.

Cheers,

Offray

I recovered parts of the functionality: ws.stfx.eu (shared smalltalk workspaces) and zn.stfx.eu are back, so that normal Zinc unit tests should pass everywhere.

At least all this is now running on Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS on Pharo 7 64-bit, as it should.

Next up is http://mc.stfx.eu for my Monticello repository, but that might take more time.

At last, http://mc.stfx.eu is back up.

I still recommend everyone to use the http://github.com/svenvc versions of my projects, as this is the better option going forward. I also intend to use these as primary repositories.
