spam the wiki with it, while you're thinking of it :P

then you can just dig it up later when we can do genres

nikki: I wrote it down on the train to uni today

nikki: oh indeed!

is beta's search supposed to be not working?

Hi guys. I'm trying to do the DBDefs.pm set up. so all I need to set is MB_SERVER_ROOT="/home/musicbrainz/musicbrainz-server", REPLICATION_TYPE=RT_SLAVE, DB_STAGING_SERVER=0, WEB_SERVER="0.0.0.0:5000"? Are they the only things Ineed to edit?

and the databases

is that value for WEB_SERVER going to enable access from any LAN system?

nashant: "0.0.0.0:5000" doesn't make sense for WEB_SERVER, you should leave that default or use the correct public address.

warp: well the default is "www.musicbrainz.example.com"

which doesn't seem right

nashant: it is mostly used to construct links on the website and in e-mails sent by the server. it doesn't configure how you can connect to the server.

oh right

Why do all the guides say that's an important part then?

nashant: hm, the default in lib/DBDefs/Default.pm is "localhost:5000"

well, never mind

oh it it is DBDefs.pm.sample. that file probably needs some cleaning up.

nikki: reosarevok: you might also be interested in "Proposal Process" and "CSG" on that page

goodnight!

night, and thanks

Ben\Sput: I take it you haven't read any of the existing discussion/plans then :P

nikki: I read them afterwards

nikki: in particular genres

I meant for locations

But no, I haven't read anything for locations apart from a quick glance at the summit notes

I assumed that they weren't being worked on in this schema change, so I didn't go looking around for stuff

nikki: oh, just noticed I missed your question. beta _should_ be using the production search server.

oh, it seems to be back now

ah good

then I will go back to afk land

trying to sudo cpan carton. Should I do local::lib or sudo for Perl library directories?

Ok, I'm getting further. just carton install --deployment, and I got 275 distributions installed \n Installing modules failed

People are still ignorant of Unicode. (To resurrect a long-dead conversation.)

On Discogs, for example, I sent a message to someone about a Greek CD. The subject line got totally mangled.

Leftmost: what client?

Hmm?

Oh, right — not an email message?

No. The email they sent out when I got a response was fine, but on the site the message is mangled.

Nice

Anyone know if ^ is correct?

If the email didn't get sent out right, the person never would have known what I was talking about. :-P

Boy it sure would be nice if there were some sort of standard protocol for messaging (a sort of “electronic mail” if you will), so that every web application didn’t have to implement their own internal messaging system.

hawke_1: I prefer to cut letters out of newspapers. That's why I get 2 papers in every language delivered every day.

nashant, what if there aren't two papers in a given language?

2 copies of the same one

What if there's no daily in a given language?

hawke_1: if every web application implementing their own means I don't have to deal with spam, I'll take each one implementing their own :P

Leftmost: then it's clearly not a valid language ;)

Them's fightin' words.

I am currently 365 of the 366 subscribers to 'The Togalog Yearly Review"

CallerNo6, that's me, but I'm going with fisticuffs.

Well, back to my original problem, anyone able to help with my "275 distributions installed \n Installing modules failed" issue? The only fail I can see is "! Couldn't find module or a distribution Hash::Merge (0)"

is it possible to add a "Abandoned" status to JIRA for style tickets?

nashant: I had similar issues when I got a sandbox on rika

nashant: I generally solved it by googleing the package for information I could pass into cpan to install it manually

nashant: IIRC, the readme (or some other doc, perhaps INSTALL) has info on installing packages

wow, really?

nope, too early.

Lots of traceroutes commented there pointing to it being indeed in NK

Wow.

hawke: yea, but do they really do the heavy lifting from there?

catalonia, ftw, btw. :)

define heavy lifting

anything that required real bandwidth.

*s

I’m not sure that they actually require a lot of bandwidth

hawke: not compared to actually hosting the content, no.

but TBP is massive operation.

I think NK may have needed to double their bandwidth alottment.

(which is more a comment on NK, less so on TBP)

CallerNo6: You have to keep in mind that Leftmost's part Irish. They need the pitchforks the the turf, so fisticuffs is the preferred way to handle disputes.

Freso: there are hundreds of proxy sites for it anyway :P

oh, perhaps it's an EU wide ban :P

ocharles: hawke_1: reosarevok: ianmcorvidae: http://pi.ockmore.net:19048/static/scanner.py for Unicode support and multiple upload attempts on failure

random pages I can find appear to be saying .375 cents per stream

Btw, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E0tPsbPnZZ8

Gah, of course he left

(waveplot died on me :p)

You surely don't expect LordBentnik to stick around?

Oh

I mean, he's like Jesus in that regard.

... seems it didn't die

It said it had crashed and kept working

Makes sense, windows

(no)

KERNEL PANIC!!! (But don't worry, we'll just keep churning on it in the background, while you think everything is lost.)

Anyway.

Go watch that frezned video.

And sleep well.

hi

hi

i'm trying to set up a mb mirror on a debian but i can't manage to install perl dependencies with carton

i googled a lot but i can't find a solution yet

let's guess, it complains about cpanfile?

yes

I really hope ianmcorvidae was right about there being an update to the install file ready

okay new carton version, i see :)

nikki: It’s good to know that lots of people are installing it though, right?

I guess?

you're the 6th afaik

okay carton now works, i was trying to install each perl module one by one but...

thx a lot

Alright guys. I'm getting "peer authentication failed" when running 'carton exec ./admin/InitDb.pl -- --createdb --clean'

Ha! another cpanfiler

mpnico: have you managed to install Hash::Merge?

can anyone tell me what they put for SYSTEM in the databases config in DBDefs.pm ?

Anyone?

Not me, certainly

Does whatever is in defaults not work?

(there's a Defaults DBDefs file somewhere but I don't remember where)

Should I just comment it out?

no i just saw i can't install Hash::Merge
