Savannah upgrade
Item posted by Sylvain Beucler <Beuc> on Tue 09 Aug 2005 12:01:09 AM UTC.
We upgraded some parts of the Savannah system.
Currently we have a few issues with the file uploading system and ViewCVS. We'll make sure to fix those asap. Check this news item's comments for updates :)
Proprietary versions of SSH (posted by Sylvain Beucler, Thu 18 Aug 2005 05:44:59 PM UTC) |
We upgraded our SSH server and it caused issues in various clients. We tried to make it as compatible as we could but we can't do better AFAICS.
Note that the OpenSSH free software client works and is freely
Also, some user reported that a proprietary version didn't have password authentication enabled. You might want to enable that.
Hopefully we'll restablish pserver in the future; we're trying to improve our security model to gain more flexibility. |

viewcvs is fixed. |

The file uploading system was actually fine, only the GPG keys synchronization was down, and this is fixed now :) |

It's not working for me. I can check out, but I can't commit.

and it gets stuck here until the connection is timed out.

Works For Me (TM)
I impersonated you and created a test dir, then added a file in it. Can you try again, I changed something else in the configuration file for https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?func=detailitem&item_id=104539

Now I got this error message:
savannah.gnu.org: Protocol not available
I actually had this before, on the day before I got the "timeout" one.
Thanks for your help.

I've also gotten an error message in my browser (Mozilla Firebird 0.7) when I've submitted comments. In this case, the comments were submitted. Several of comments didn't arrive at all, even though I didn't get an error message. That's why I can't reproduce it here: the comments containing it have disappeared into the ether. Something about "fatal error" and a PHP file.
In Opera 7.54 I got an error message about "double posting".

Okay, it worked, but I got this error message (Opera 7.54). It looks familiar, I'm pretty sure it's the same one:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: trackers_get_msgid() in /frontend/php/include/sendmail.php on line 99

The forum error is around for a little while now, it's a reported issue at project Savane. I think this prevents forum tracking, but not messaging posting.
About "protocol not available", this most likely means you didn't export CVS_RSH=ssh
We chose to send this ICMP message instead of dropping paquets when people attempt to rsh Savannah (that was setup a few months ago). |

Well, it was my fault, after all. I was forgetting to prepend a period when I called the script that exported CVS-RSH.
Sorry to put you to so much trouble, and thanks again.
