because I've not heard anyone request that feature.

Which, tagging or access?

access.

if I were you, I would setup the mb_server on your nox.

box

That's one of the listed ideas on the GSoC page, and there was positive response on both lists.

and try and work on a feature.

I'm working on that now.

that should get you a clue as to how long things will take.

good!

The biggest problem with working on a feature right now is time. I would really love to, and I would have loved to last week, but the semester is getting close to ending and that means crunch time. I'm doing my best to work on the application and put in a good amount of work, but I have to stay within reason.

well, make some educated guesses about what you think you can do and put it into the app.

Alright. I'll keep working on it. And I'm sorry for the conflict. I understand that you absolutely _need_ to filter out students who wouldn't take their projects to completion. I personally tend to err on the side of inquisitive.

Hence the questions.

:-)

Largely, I'm just not used to coding (specifically) under a deadline. Both where I work and on the OSS projects I've worked on, time is usually not critical. So I'm less inclined to trust my own time judgment.

heh. yeah.

but this is part of your education. trying to get used to that.

That's true.

ok, sushi calls me. bbiab.

Later.

nn all

good morning :)

ruaok: You there?

but the aroundness may be extremely tenous

your next connection has bummer timing navap_

net

For some reason I always end up with connection problems when starting a discussion with you.

bad omen

I've been helping a friend setup the MB server (screen -x FTW!) and the import just finished with

Loaded 61 tables (40921524 rows) in 636 seconds Failed to import dataset. Tue Apr 6 23:34:30 2010 : InitDb.pl failed

Nothing said "error" in the import log.

idc if he connects

hey look at that, iarp is alive.

haha as soon as you went quiet i knew you'd be in here

navap_: can you pastebin as much of the log as possible?

or mail it to me

ruaok: iarp was only importing the one mbdump.tar.gz file though, not all of the dumps

I created a typescript, just like you showed me ;)

that is most likely the problem. import derived and editor and it should work better.

nice on the typescript -- useful, no?

Yeah, much easier to grep that then stare at the screen the entire time.

typescript and screen are a good combo for remote admin

Okay we'll reimport with those two other dumps as well and see how it goes.

mail -s log rob@ < typescript

lemme gander at it.

hope you get that lol

sent.

line 7828 has an error on it

aCiD2 hit this as well, but then it magically went away.

but magically may very well have been that he import *all* the data and it worked fine.

editor and derived is what you really need in order to run an mb instance

3rd times the charm hopefully.

ahem, hopefully the 5th time round will be the real charm.

We had some dump file path issues :)

twice.

ruaok: DBD::Pg::db pg_putcopyend failed: ERROR: missing data for column "quality"

When loading release

This is with the main dump, derived and editor

is there enough info in a cue to generate a usable CDTOC?

brianfreud: I think so

which dataset are you attempting to load?

It was the 20100317 dump files I believe

and what codebase do you have running?

There haven't been any commits to core.git lately, so I imagine it would be the same thing that is on git.musicbrainz.org

iarp's gone for the night though and I don't have ssh access in anymore.

which table was it importing when it died?

release

It was the only one that gave an error.

k

the last commit killed it.

damn, I thought was in.

:(

That's an easy fix then, just reset to an earlier commit and reimport?

yes

go to the 2010-03-03 version

Okay got it, but reset to that commit or reset to the commit before that one?

the one before I would guess.

Okay I'll see how that goes tomorow.

Thanks

our online git browsing sucks ass.

when you get it checked out, make sure that admin/sql/CreateTables does not have the quality column defined.

Not to keep saying the same thing, but take a look at... http://github.com/navap/mb_server/commits/maste...

if its not in the file, the data should import.

duh. thanks for pointing me there again. I'll get it before too long. :)

meh, ruaok's test.musicbrainz.org dump won't import.

how come?

it's an .sql dump, not something to use with pg_restore

and postgres is complaining about a bunch of things it can't parse in that file.

ofcourse I destroyed my previous databases, so now I have no database.

I'm going to import the january dump first, because I know that one works and I will atleast be able to code/hack again.

after that I'll try importing the test.musicbrainz.org dump in a new database, without destroying my current one :)

hm, the january dump also fails. odd.

:/

warp: it would help if you tell us what fails :)

luks: I don't know that myself :)

no error message?

i'm logging things to a file now (and using --echo), so I should have something more useful in a few moments.

javascript doesn't have an equivalent of perl's tr/// does it?

Wed Apr 7 13:13:10 2010 : InitDb.pl failed

didn't navap's friend get that earlier and it was something to do with the missing quality column?

I haven't had that trouble myself yet, so far I've always been able to just import the database and then do the alter table.

but I don't know if/when that quality column went into which repo :)
