Which request from Apache are you looking for?
The main infra stuff that needs to be handled still for OFBiz are
these in the board report:

Hi David,
i just subscribed to the infrastructure mailing list and see if we can
satisfy their request of running the demo there....then we would
need a
small redirect on the ofbiz.apache.org to make this happen. Do you
still
have the original request from Apache, i cannot find it here anymore.
The site can be maintained simply by updating ofbiz svn as we did in
the
early days.

Hans

At the minute ALL ASF web sites run on static HTML. In some cases
that
HTML is exported from something like confluence, but none of them
dynamically generate right now (AFAIK). I'm not sure, but I think
this
is actually an infra policy as there are not sufficient server
resources for running all the sites in a dynamic way, and for the
most
part there is no reason for it since the sites are just static
content
anyway.
I don't know how much traffic ofbiz.apache.org gets, but I know many
of the other projects get a LOT of traffic and the servers available
for the web sites could not handle that traffic with dynamic content
rendering going on.
Stepping back a little... we don't even know if we'll be able to host
an OFBiz demo in a reasonable way (we should be able to, but I don't
know), so we're getting a bit ahead of ourselves thinking about the
web site.
BTW, I saw your commit Hans to put the site in the cmssite example.
That's an interesting thing to do, and might be a good example with
simplified content, but I'm worried about redundancy and
inconsistency
with the content there (ie I don't think there's a very good chance
it
will be maintained as the site is changed).

We sure can, but since they host that and don't do it under OFBiz,
that would make it tough :) If this is a request to get a site
setup for OFBiz run by OFBiz, I'm all in to host this on this server
and get it going as well. I doubt we'll want to make this change at
this point, but let me know your thoughts.
Hans, email me privately and I'll get you going on the server with
access as well.
Cheers,
Tim

Are there any volunteers on the PMC who would be willing to work
with
the ASF infra on getting a demo server setup on an actual ASF
server?
As great as it is to have this demo server contributed by Hotwax
(and
yes, I am a part of Hotwax), the people that do infra stuff at
Hotwax
don't always follow these mailing lists so reporting problems here
does no good. At least with ASF infra people would have someone
the
infra Jira and such to use when issues arise. I could try to ping
those people every time I see something on the lists, but that
means
a
single point of failure (me), which is a bad thing, and I end up
being
a nag and having to get involved and investigate every time
something
goes wrong, which I'm not really all that available for (I won't
go
into details, but just believe me when I say that I don't have
much
influence on those things).
On the other hand, maybe hosting a demo server like this would be
too
much of a pain for the current ASF infra volunteers (who tend to
get
stretched rather thin sometimes). So, I don't know what the best
solution is...
This is one of various things that are not on ASF infra, and
that we
need volunteers to help with migrating. To make things more
difficult,
in order to even help you must be pretty involved with the
project,
most things requiring PMC membership to get going. These have been
on
my list for a while (see the last OFBiz board report for details),
but
that list is pretty big and priorities difficult for me to decide
on...
Help! I'm drowning! ;)

I get the same error on the demo site, yet my recently-updated
local

Someone who has access to the demo site needs to check the logs.
