JP, if I understand what you're saying, "If we could have one working location+configuration, be it A' or B' or whatever, I'd be fine with it, it'll be better than our current situation", I'm now welcome to delete jspwiki/trunk/jspwiki-site so we'll just have the single standard jspwiki/site/trunk that they're used to (indeed they *required* the roller/site/trunk format when I got Roller on the Apache CMS: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-5631?focusedCommentId=13547018&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-13547018.) And then I can close JSPWiki-787, JSPWIKI-5943, and JSPWIKI-6611 and submit an Infra JIRA to make the JSPWiki URL (jspwiki.apache.org/jspwiki) just like the Roller URL (roller.apache.org) on the Apache CMS, i.e., get rid of the "jspwiki" subdirectory from the URL. So we'll be back to having a single site we can update via normal Apache CMS processes described on the Edit Website page of the JSPWiki site.

Further, whatever prettying up you wish to do of the ChangeLog file can instead be done via CSS and/or us adding our changes in via HTML as mentioned below, no more autogeneration, OK?

We have to get this issue fixed, and simplifying it to whatever Infra's accustomed to seems to be the best way to go. (Indeed, in JSPWIKI-6611, Daniel has stated our problem is that we're no longer using the jspwiki/site/trunk location they're expecting: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-6611?focusedCommentId=13729382&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-13729382) This project has lots of difficulties already, at least let's get rid of the crippled website issue.

Regards,
Glen

Hi Glen, well not exactly.

Site's src began at location "A" in the SVN tree. We opened INFRA-5943, and to make things easier to infra, site's src was copied to location "B", in order to make the site transition seamless. Graduation came, and the SVN was migrated, A location became A' and B became B'. So far so good.

The site was migrated directly from A to B', which seems to be the cause of INFRA-6611. As I've understood from INFRA-6611, it should've gone from A to A' to B' or from A to B to B', solving 5943 and 6611 one after another. Going from A to B' in one step has been the cause of the current problems with the website. AFAIK, sticking with the old site location won't solve the issue as it still exists right now, it's CMS configuration problem; I'm not 100% sure, but seems it has to be recreated (cfr. with INFRA-6492, duplicate of 6611). If we could have one working location+configuration, be it A' or B' or whatever, I'd be fine with it, it'll be better than our current situation..

Tomorrow is the board meeting, with our report stating this issue, hopefully it should draw some attention to it br, juan pablo

JP, it's looking like the website delays are due in part to your moving the site folder under our source trunk, and not in the site/cms or whatever folder Apache CMS that is accustomed to: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-6611?focusedCommentId=13729365&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-13729365.

Further, this was done to satisfy INFRA-5943, autogeneration of the website so the change log would look nicer. I.e., the entire website is apparently being crippled just so one page looks perhaps 30% better via HTML and CSS. That's leaving aside the problem that 5943 means we won't have a staging website to review our changes anymore (all commits go directly to prod) as well as that every svn code commit presently reports a distracting update to the website pages.

I think I have a better solution for us. How about we rename the ChangeLog to OldChangeLog2 or whatever and move it out of the root. In its place, give us a brand-new, empty ChangeLog.html containing a commented-out template for us to copy at the top and use everytime we make a change. I always blog in pure HTML, so it's absolutely *nothing* for me to update the ChangeLog in HTML. Then link to the HTML page on our website instead, so it will be nice and formatted as desired and always updated with the latest information (no auto-publishing needed). You can put the CSS at the top of the ChangeLog or store it at the jspwiki site directory and just reference it in. Then we can get the site folder out of the source code trunk and back where Apache CMS is coded to expect it, we resume having the staging/publish site again, our commits just show the code we changed with no auto updates to the site, and Infra is happy with us again. How does that sound?

If you would prefer a more automated solution than us directly updating the HTML file (I'm personally fine with that, though), rather than roll-our-own I would recommend a JIRA enhancement request (and patch, if you wish) to the Apache CMS team for what you have in mind so it gets implemented there in a standard fashion for all teams.

Glen

Hi Glen,

I don't mind if INFRA-5943 gets done now or in two months, as it'll be an extra (to publish a nice changelog after every commit), but right now I'm afraid we're unable to update the site, see comments on INFRA-6577 (JSPWiki TLP: common tasks) and INFRA-6611 (Error updating JSPWiki CMS site). This
JIRA shouldn't stop manual edits of the website happening though, i.e.:
when a new release is done

Also, regarding the site SVN location, until INFRA-6492 gets done, it's
$svn/site/trunk (although we can't push content or move the jspwiki folder
one level up right now), and afterwards will be
$svn/trunk/jspwiki-site/src/site/trunk This should be independent from
INFRA-5943

As soon as we are able to edit the website again, I was hoping to edit and
remove all the incubating stuff and publish the site under jspwiki.a.o
instead of jspwiki.a.o/jspwiki. My idea is to ping infra again by tomorrow
night to give some space to all these JIRAs (although we've been over a
week with half site and without a front page :-/)

JP, can we hold off on INFRA-5943 (just cancel it for now) so we can get the http://jspwiki.apache.org/ page fully active (no more linking to an HTML index) and I can remove the "(incubating)" references? Just have them
do INFRA-6492 and make it clear 5943 is withdrawn. This will entail
deleting one of our two "jspwiki-site" directories--you tell me which
one--I don't want to be juggling two sources of record for our website.

I'd like to hold off on 5943 until the jspwiki.org wiki pages are also
copied over (and also the IT tests are working, if I may get greedy :)
  Whatever its merits (and I've always seen just a link to SVN for the
changelog good enough), Apache Infra just doesn't have the time to work on it, they presently have 115 other "major" issues in JIRA and the much more complex 5943 may be prohibiting them from completing 6492. I don't think we can afford a several-week wait, we need to remove the "incubating" stuff.

The current fully documented vanilla Apache CMS process (
http://jspwiki.apache.org/**jspwiki/development/edit_**website.html<http://jspwiki.apache.org/jspwiki/development/edit_website.html>), where we commit to SVN, go to the staging site to see if we like it, and
then hit the publish button if we do has worked fine, I've never had a
problem with it and I've done more website updates the past several months than anyone here. (Do you know how to use it by the way? The edit page -- the staging site -- the publish button? I don't know if you want to switch from the current process because you haven't tried out the current process
yet...)

Hi Glen,

I tried to do the same edit this morning, same results, I think it's
related to INFRA-6492 (still open) and the relocation of SVN: editing the site via CMS bookmarklet yields an "Error 500" page, with the following message: "Repository has been moved: Repository moved permanently to ' https://svn.apache.org/repos/**asf/jspwiki/site/trunk/**content/jspwiki<https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jspwiki/site/trunk/content/jspwiki>
';
please relocate at /usr/local/cms/webgui/lib/ASF/**CMS/WC/Commit.pm line
62".
As per INFRA-6492, it seems the site still needs some tweaking in order to
be fully usable

Regarding the site folder, once INFRA-6492 gets completed, the site folder should be $svn/trunk/jspwiki-site/src/**site/trunk (I'd prefer to delete
$svn/site/trunk once INFRA-6492 gets resolved, just in case)

Regarding the extra jspwiki folder at jspwiki.a.o/jspwiki: the site has been partially transferred, having the same strucure it had when being
part
of incubator.a.o, and needed to be one level down (the jspwiki folder), in order to not "pollute" the main incubator.a.o. Once the site is relocated we will be able to push content one level up, effectively dismissing the extra jspwiki we have right now. In that sense I feel INFRA-6572 should be
closed as invalid/duplicated/related to INFRA-6492

Also, when you say you can't commit right now, you are referring just to the site or to all svn (https://svn.apache.org/repos/**asf/jspwiki/trunk/<https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jspwiki/trunk/>
).
The first one should be expected 'til we get solved INFRA-6492, the second one shouldn't happen, right now committer access is given to the following
apache id's for jspwiki:

juanpablo@minotaur:~$ list_unix_group.pl jspwiki
ajaquith
altheim
brushed
clr
csauer
florianh
gmazza
henning
jalkanen
juanpablo
metskem
rubys
snoopdave

Finally, I'll file the required JIRA for transferring resources incubator
-> TLP as soon as I get through all the last e-mails this week

Hi Juan Pablo, I made an update to jspwiki/jspwiki-site (namely, removed
the "(Incubating)" from the title page -- index.html) but the change did not propagate to the website:http://jspwiki.**staging.apache.<http://jspwiki.staging.apache.> **org/jspwiki/<**http://jspwiki.staging.apache.**org/jspwiki/<http://jspwiki.staging.apache.org/jspwiki/>
.
I also noticed that the old "site" directory hasn't been deleted yet: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/****jspwiki/<http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/**jspwiki/> <http://svn.apache.**org/viewvc/jspwiki/<http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/jspwiki/>
.
I assumed as a part of your automated site generation, we would still
just
have one folder for our website that would store everything -- either
"site" or "jspwiki/jspwiki-site" -- is that not the case? Can we
consolidate to one folder?  Also, could you update the Edit page:
http://jspwiki.staging.apache.****org/jspwiki/development/**edit_**
website.html<http://jspwiki.**staging.apache.org/jspwiki/**
development/edit_website.html<http://jspwiki.staging.apache.org/jspwiki/development/edit_website.html>
**for the new website generation process, remove what's no longer
relevant

and add a blurb explaining the new stuff.

Thanks,
Glen

PS: I can't commit anything myself right now. I put in an Infra ticket
to
get my (and potentially everyone else's) karma restored:
