quince.webarch.net

This is a debian Xen virtual server with 1GB ram, 32GB HDD, single partition, 4 processors and one IP address, 81.95.52.88.

Munin starts for the server are available on ​the webarchitects monitoring server and on ​the transition network development server.

The live site is being set up at ​http://live.quince.webarch.net/ and the notes about the old live server are here: LiveServer The move to quince.webarch.net is being sorted out on ticket:147

Mediawiki

The Mediawiki site at ​http://wiki.transitionnetwork.org/ is running on quince.webarch.net and there is also a wiki:DevelopmentServer#Mediawiki version of this site at ​http://wiki.dev.transitionnetwork.org/ -- when upgrading Mediawiki please first test the upgrade on the dev server first.

backup2quince

To backup the Mysql database and the files for the web sites to the wiki:DevelopmentServer run the /usr/local/bin/backup2quince script, it puts the files in /home/live/quince on kiwi.webarch.net and these files are used by the scripts on kiwi to update the Drupal and Mediwiki sites with the latest data from the live sites.

php

See ​https://live.quince.webarch.net/info/ for the php info, the php.ini file is /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini

PECL Uploadprogress was installed as suggested here: ​http://www.joergfelser.at/content/howto-install-pecl-uploadprogress-debian-50-lenny

aptitude install php5-dev
pecl install uploadprogress

And this was added to the php.ini file:

extension=uploadprogress.so

The, default php.ini files which had these changes:

expose_php = Off
memory_limit = 256M
extension=uploadprogress.so

Was moved to php.ini.dist.tweaked and then /usr/share/doc/php5-common/examples/php.ini-recommended was copied to /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini and a new /etc/php5/apache2/conf.d/uploadprogress.ini file was created with this in it:

extension=uploadprogress.so

And /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini was edited and these things were changed:

expose_php = Off
memory_limit = 256M      ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (128MB)
error_log = syslog
post_max_size = 12M
upload_max_filesize = 12M
display_errors = On
default_charset = "utf-8"
mysql.default_socket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
mysql.default_port = 3306
session.save_path = "N;/var/lib/php5"

phpmyadmin

This is available here: ​https://live.quince.webarch.net/phpmyadmin/

munin

In addition to the plugins available by default these were installed:

• ​multimemory
• ​apache_activity

TODO

1. Sort out drupal errors:

warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #2 is not an array in /web/transitionnetwork.org/www/includes/theme.inc on line 930.

warning: call_user_func_array() [function.call-user-func-array]: First argument is expected to be a valid callback, 'nodereference_autocomplete_access' was given in /web/transitionnetwork.org/www/includes/menu.inc on line 452.

2. Optimise, what php accelerator should we use? Tweak MySQL defaults.

3. Cron

4. Consider switching to ​http://www.dotdeb.org/ packages for php and mysql -- this should solve the GD problem...

Setup Notes

Live site, directory and svn checkup:

mkdir -p /web/transitionnetwork.org/
cd /web/transitionnetwork.org/
svn co https://svn.webarch.net/transition/code/trunk
mv trunk www
cd /web/transitionnetwork.org/www/sites
mkdir cache
chown www-data:www-data cache
mkdir workspaces.transitionnetwork.org
rsync -av kiwi:/home/live/new-live-data/web/transitionnetwork.org/www/sites/workspaces.transitionnetwork.org/ workspaces.transitionnetwork.org/
chown -R www-data:www-data workspaces.transitionnetwork.org/files/
cd /web/transitionnetwork.org/www/sites/default
rsync -av kiwi:/home/live/new-live-data/web/transitionnetwork.org/www/sites/default/files/ files/
chown -R www-data:www-data files

Databases were imported using a script, /usr/local/bin/mysql-update-from-gaia the two settings.php files were edited to suite.

There was a problem with missing modules:

Warning: require_once(./sites/all/modules/cacherouter/cacherouter.inc) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /web/transitionnetwork.org/www/includes/bootstrap.inc on line 1009

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required './sites/all/modules/cacherouter/cacherouter.inc' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/pear') in /web/transitionnetwork.org/www/includes/bootstrap.inc on line 1009

This modules isn't in svn any more: ​https://svn.webarch.net/transition/code/trunk/sites/all/modules/cacherouter

So it was copied over manually:

mkdir /web/transitionnetwork.org/www/sites/all/modules/cacherouter/
rsync -av kiwi:/home/live/new-live-data/web/transitionnetwork.org/www/sites/all/modules/cacherouter/ /web/transitionnetwork.org/www/sites/all/modules/cacherouter/

The following Drupal errors:

# warning: call_user_func_array() [function.call-user-func-array]: First argument is expected to be a valid callback, 'ctools_export_ui_task_access' was given in /web/transitionnetwork.org/www/includes/menu.inc on line 452.
