Fedora 37 Beta Freeze now in effect
by Kevin Fenzi 14 Sep '22

14 Sep '22

Greetings. We are now in the infrastructure freeze leading up to the Fedora 37 Beta release. This is a pre release freeze. We do this to ensure that our infrastructure is stable and ready to release the Fedora 37 Beta when it's available. You can see a list of hosts that do not freeze by checking out the ansible repo and running the freezelist script: git clone https://infrastructure.fedoraproject.org/infra/ansible.git ansible/scripts/freezelist -i inventory Any hosts listed as freezes is frozen until 2022-09-13 (or later if release slips). Frozen hosts should have no changes made to them without a sign-off on the change from at least 2 sysadmin-main or rel-eng members, along with (in most cases) a patch of the exact change to be made to this list or a pull request for review. Thanks, Kevin

About JS framework
by Pierre-Yves Chibon 14 Sep '22

14 Sep '22

Good Morning Everyone, Our infrastructure is mostly a python store, meaning almost all our apps are written in python and most using wsgi. However in python we are using a number of framework: * flask for most * pyramid for some of the biggest (bodhi, FAS3) * Django (askbot, Hyperkitty) * TurboGears2 (fedora-packages) * aiohttp (python3, async app: mdapi) While this makes sometime things difficult, these are fairly standard framework and most of our developers are able to help on all. However, as I see us starting to look at JS for some of our apps (fedora-hubs, wartaa...), I wonder if we could start the discussion early about the different framework and eventually see if we can unify around one. This would also allow those of us not familiar with any JS framework to look at the recommended one instead of picking one up semi-randomly. So has anyone experience with one or more JS framework? Do you have one that would you recommend? Why? Thanks for your inputs, Pierre

I made a new Fedora Apps page, do you want it?
by Jakub Kadlcik 12 Sep '22

12 Sep '22

Hello, I am reimplementing the current https://apps.fedoraproject.org page. It is not finished yet, but I wanted to share a demo with you: https://fedora-apps.netlify.app The upstream is here: https://github.com/frostyx/fedora-apps/ Do you have any interest to eventually switch to this implementation and sunset the original one? PS: Please don't judge me too harshly for the code quality, I am learning the language. I will refactor once the basic features are done (I know everybody is saying that :D) Jakub

FBR: DNS update
by Stephen Smoogen 12 Sep '22

12 Sep '22

Currently the ipv6for osuosl.org is not functioning and I would like to take them out of DNS. When looking at it, I found that the getfedora.org was in this state: ``` disable proxy09.fedoraproject.org disable proxy11.fedoraproject.org enable proxy11.fedoraproject.org disable proxy02.fedoraproject.org enable proxy02.fedoraproject.org disable proxy04.fedoraproject.org disable proxy06.fedoraproject.org enable proxy06.fedoraproject.org disable proxy13.fedoraproject.org enable proxy13.fedoraproject.org disable proxy03.fedoraproject.org enable proxy03.fedoraproject.org disable proxy12.fedoraproject.org enable proxy12.fedoraproject.org disable proxy01.iad2.fedoraproject.org disable proxy101.iad2.fedoraproject.org disable proxy101.iad2.fedoraproject.org ``` My change to the cmds files is to add proxy06.fedoraproject.org and proxy09 to the disable list and remove all others from getfedora.org. Then execute a change and cleanup. -- Stephen Smoogen, Red Hat Automotive Let us be kind to one another, for most of us are fighting a hard battle. -- Ian MacClaren

The state of mailing lists/mailman (not great)
by Stephen Smoogen 07 Sep '22

07 Sep '22

This is a general 'what I am seeing in the infrastructure' email taking various comments I made in irc into a more formal email I started looking at some email failures last week and realized that many of the mailing lists have vast amounts of 'held' email and 'held' subscriptions. In most cases these are SPAM messages and from many of the email addresses probably also spam accounts. In viewing this, I "felt" that lists with large numbers of these seemed slower to bring up various web pages so I started to clean up the loads. My rough estimate is that there are several hundred thousand outstanding subscriptions on many lists going back to 2015 and there are approximately million held messages in the database. Due to the age of our mailman3 implementation, I could not easily do this with any command line tool and found that the direct action given in various forums were not working either due to the schema we have in our DB not matching what is now the current version. I instead went through cleaning up various lists of old spam by hand. This takes a long time and led me to see that the general load average of the mailman was running around 10 to 12 over long periods of time. With only 4 CPU's, I thought this might be cause of my original issues so I increased the CPU count to 8. This lowered the long term load average but now led to reports where the mailman REST daemon does not respond in time due to timeouts. Looking at what is going on in the logs, and reading through the forums, my guess was these are issues due to the old django and early mailman we are using. At this point I started to look at what would be needed to update mailman to a newer version which could be supported on Fedora or RHEL9. The main issues are setting up the django "project" and then making sure that the needed packages are available. The upstream 'recommended' ways are to use either venv or containers but I found that the solutions are for a) docker, b) have a lot of security vulnerabilities in the quay listing and c) using it looks like Debian/Ubuntu packages. There is also a lot of customization needed to the point it might be best to start from scratch on that. I am thinking it might make better sense to work out a project and layout in staging, get a copy of the database from db01 and try experiments to make it work until we either burn it all down or not. -- Stephen Smoogen, Red Hat Automotive Let us be kind to one another, for most of us are fighting a hard battle. -- Ian MacClaren
