Upcoming wiki migration, staging server, and downtime

[kkremitzki]

I have finally moved the first of our services to Digital Ocean. Part of this change involves moving from e.g. freecadweb.org/tracker to tracker.freecadweb.org. This should however be transparent as all existing links should work.

Ideally everything should be problem-free and significantly faster! If the first part is not quite right please post here to let me know so I can fix it ASAP.

Up next is the wiki.

Any downtime expected? A user reported a missing image recently. I thought the wiki had a hiccup. Part Measure Linear wiki page: Error creating thumbnail: File missing

That's a holdover of a failed migration attempt from a while back. There shouldn't be much downtime, perhaps an hour or so, and I'll try to announce it in advance.

Email was broken for a while. I am waiting to hear back about credentials for the freecadweb.org mailer, so for the time being mails are being sent out as tracker@freecad.io instead of noreply@freecadweb.org.

I'm noticing a weird anomaly that I'm not sure how to produce yet. Essentially wheni try to view a ticket sometimes, the tracker spits back my dashboard page instead of the ticket. Can anyone confirm this?

APPLICATION ERROR #503

Invalid upload path. Directory either does not exist or not writable to webserver.

I cannot attach files. I am trying to add logs to issue #4242 and issue #4243.

Just did a chown, the permissions for attachments should be fixed now.

If it happens with any regularity you can open the Developer Tools in your browser, go to the Network tab, and enable keeping logs. That should let you inspect what happened after the fact.

I had this too recently. What solved the problem for me was closing and restarting the browser.

Ok, thanks for the feedback, folks. Will keep an eye open.
