but I bet your biking options were limited to none, right?

correct

and in the weather over there that doesn't seem like a great option either.

its fine when you're on the bike. but when you stop? thats problematic.

happens here too.

feels like someone opened a faucet over my head.

just walking I already arrived at alex a bit sweatier than I would've liked.

(but it sure beats waiting for unreliable taxi's in rush hour)

I was about to say, didn't you have a personal taxi driver?

well, you call them and throughing most of the day you'll have a car in about 15 minutes.

but definitely not at 17:00

ah

I had the phone numbers of two drivers I knew fairly well, so I was able to call them myself. but any kind of response other than "I'll be there in 15 minutes" I wouldn't understand with my level of spanish

so I would then have to call alex to call the driver to ask if someone was going to pick me up

I feel that.

when my mobile rings from a number that I dont know, I almost always have to pass it to aleta.

phone calls are very hard. so little context.

yes

hi nikki

hi

nikki: ocharles says: testers: please pop '72.29.166.157 lolo.musicbrainz.org' in /etc/hosts, and see if that site works the same as musicbrainz.org

yes

k

is that pointing to the live db?

I believe so.

not sure what code its running tho

master

i wouldn't point two different revisions at the same db :)

nikki: I'm carton / CPAN hell issues on rika, so I haven't been able to get the ajax cover art uploader running there yet.

other than beta

+having

warp: :/

nikki: do you think there is a carton local on rika somewhere I can just sneakily cp -vpr ?

uhh, not sure. maybe reo's would work?

hm, bitmap has a perl-fcgi process on that machine hogging a core

nikki: well, the server starts but things are 504 sleeping on rika.

heh

bitmap was complaining about 504s XD

that seems to be the only misbehaving process, running for 6 hours now.

(but I don't want to just randomly kill other people's processes)

browsing without user scripts is a strange experience...

the machine still has 7 more cores, it shouldn't be 504'ing _just_ because of that perl-fcgi.

ocharles: http://musicbrainz.org/edit/23057538 loads fine, http://lolo.musicbrainz.org/edit/23057538 says it has an error, so it seems they're not running the same code

oh, maybe the server didn't restart

one moment, lolo is going to go down a second

yes, it hasn't been restarted since jul 02, that's not right

nikki: fixed

also can I access the other servers directly by doing similar things in /etc/hosts? :P I've often wondered if there's a way to do that

thanks

no

nikki: not without me messing with the configs more, and the way I've done it now is a hack

aw

so if you do want that, then open a ticket and we can make it happen later

though the easiest is giving you vpn access, then you get that for free!

but that's not really the right solution :)

well, it's not really important. the servers seem to be behaving themselves lately

maybe if they start acting up all the time again I'll ask

nikki: ok, my sandbox is running.

\o/

nikki: but!

there is always a butt

errr

:-)

ocharles: I browsed around a bit and did some edits and haven't noticed anything so far

nikki: it is running with the test dataset, so there's only a few albums in there. (like the love bug http://warp.mbsandbox.org/release/aff4a693-5970... :)

nikki: that also means there are not many users, you can login with username "kuno", password "byld".

nikki: and the coverart redirect service isn't running, so after you upload an image you won't be able to see it.

ok

oh, and it uploads to rika, not the real ia servers.

ocharles: merging master fixed the diff.

it's buggy, inflexible and having three search methods plus two more in the inline search is terribly confusing

oh ocharles already gave the uploader a shippit.

nikki: are you tesing on the sandbox now? if so I'll wait, but otherwise I can ship the ajax uploader to beta today.

no, right now I'm in the middle of adding an awkward release on lolo

:)

do you want test it on the sandbox first? or do you prefer to have it on beta?

I can test it on the sandbox first when I'm done with this

ok, great, let me know when you're done :)

sure

warp: oh, the way the ajax uploader works means http://tickets.musicbrainz.org/browse/MBS-4695 shouldn't happen, right?

warp: well... it just says "⚠ Error uploading image" :P

nikki: I think that already shouldn't happen with the server-side changes we did for .gif/.png support.

nikki: boo :(

and the filesizes are wrong or confusing or something... it says "1.46Mb" for a 192 kb file

oh wow

(the display of those sizes is done by a third-party library, though there could also be some error reading the filesize)

the gif's size seems ok though, that one says "21.12KB" for what osx says is 22 kb

did any of your test files upload?

nope

just the same "error uploading image" thing

which browser is this?

opera

12 presumably, not 15, correct?

heh

15 won't even open on here XD

12.14 iirc

(I've heard terrible things about it though, so it's perhaps good that it won't even let me run it)

I love how I can never find anything in opera because it is the only program ever to have a complete frisian translation.

haha

oh. oops. I was like "grr why can't I select multiple files" in safari... maybe because that's not the ajax uploader

I guess my firefox is too old too

wow, how old is your firefox?

it's 7.0.1, however old that is

that sounds pretty old

it shows the ajax uploader but nothing happens when I select files :P

that's older than the oldest supported firefox "extended support" release.

nikki: meh, that's a shitty experience. it should fall back to the old iframe when the browser features we need are not available.

I could've sworn it used to work

but that was a long time ago, maybe I'm mistaken

alright, I have Opera 12.16

and I have nuked its configuration, and now it loads the page with .css and everything.

chrome also gives an error

(like opera)

nikki: did that release add ok?

yes

woot

I added a couple of urls and images too

afaik that machine should be fine, I left it in full rotation for a few hours and heard nothing

the amazon image showed up, as did the caa image

nikki: and how old is your chrome? :)

it claims to be 28.0.1500.71 and up to date

I don't know how to turn off auto-updating :P

nikki: I get the error you describe in Opera 12, so that is something I definitely need to look into. firefox 22 and chrome 28 work for me.

but I don't use it for anything other than testing mb stuff anyway

chrome on osx?

yes

I'll try some other chromes.

I get the same error in firefox 21 in linux on the laptop

also the same weird behaviour with file sizes

yay, reproduced the chrome on mac issue as well.

this may just be a configuration issue

it tries to connect to localhost:5050
