When running "./scripts/database-init-docker.sh" for database setup, I am get following error: curl: (7) Failed to connect to ftp.musicbrainz.org port 21: Connection refused

Downloading the bookbrainz data dump failed. Can anyone help me with that please?

Karan, if you read the logs, it looks like you can't access that address. Maybe you are behind a firewall or proxy that prevents the connection? Can you access the page ftp.musicbrainz.org? And if you run the command `curl ftp://ftp.musicbrainz.org/pub/musicbrainz/bookb... in your terminal, do you get the same error?

Hi, monkey I am a beginner contributor and look forward to contributing to this project. I found this ticket https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/BB-592 and would like to work on it. Can you please guide me on which files should i go through?

BB-592: Alias language change not shown in revisions

Hi AbhinavOhri, if you read the logs ! The diffing is done on the ORM. You can find each entity's revision page in this folder: https://github.com/metabrainz/bookbrainz-data-j...

And the `diffRevisions` method that each one calls is here: https://github.com/metabrainz/bookbrainz-data-j...

And in the website codebase potential files of interest are:

https://github.com/metabrainz/bookbrainz-site/b... and perhaps https://github.com/metabrainz/bookbrainz-site/b...

Yes I can access to the address but when running "curl ftp://ftp.musicbrainz.org/pub/musicbrainz/bookb...; in terminal, I am getting the same error

It looks like the internet connection on your end does not allow you to connect. Are you perhaps behind a proxy?

Thank you so much Monkey! You're correct, I was using my college wifi that was causing the problem, finally database is set up, looking forward to make awesome contributons :)

Ah, well that's good news !

Hello! In reference to the Administration System project for GSoC 2023.At extended goals section, can you explain why a new page is needed for allowing privileged users to edit and add relationships and identifiers? Isn't that option available when editing an entity, why is there a new page needed?
