If you'll find a time to describe a problem in more detail I guess there will be some interested people who are less busy. Do you intend to automate this setup operation to allow quick replacement of the box?

Any progress? I noticed that CHM file dates are new, but I can't say if build process takes place, because Polish CHM is still corrupted and it's size still 400Kb against usual 6Mb http://www.php.net/download-docs.php?sizes=1 http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=34026 If something touches files even if the build fails - it is a bad U problem (by FUD classification).

We're supposed to getting donated a windows build box for this kind of thing; I'll chase up my contacts to see when that will be. --Wez. anatoly techtonik wrote: > As far as I can understand the problem on the surface is in windows > machine where hhc.exe needs to be executed.

[PHP-DOC] CHM build machine - Was[2]: [PHP-DOC] #34026 [Ver->Opn]: Polish CHM is corrupted

I'll DR> need to set it up again but it'll have to wait a bit as it's not on the DR> top of my todo list. However, I guess I can upload this polish CHM. Will be great, but this doesn't remove the source of the problem, which in turn can be a part of another problem. Just let me expand this a bit. I'm speaking only about ordinary .chm's process. As far as I can understand the problem on the surface is in windows machine where hhc.exe needs to be executed. As the windows machine is not available for PHP folks at http://master.php.net/inventory.php we have to use somebody's private host to compile .chm's To make CHM available on http://www.php.net/download-docs.php we need 1. Compile orinary multipage HTML manual (can be done on unix box also) 2. Filter HTML pages (also can be done on either windows or unix box) 3. Build HTML Help project files (this also possible on unix box) 4. Launch HHC.EXE to get .CHM (the only operation requires windows) 5. Upload .CHM to php.net So everything can be done on unix box and in fact steps 1 and 5 are already running every two weeks (according to the dates of downloadable html manual archives). It is possible to setup a job on a windows machine, which will pull the output of step 1 from unix box, make necessary transformations in step 2,3,4 and upload result back to unix box together with build logs. Box will run necessary tests (try to open .chm with unix chm tools and 0 return status if ok). After this .chm can be uploaded onsite. To make the process completely transparent we can make analog of http://snaps.php.net/ with archive build dates and build logs to be available for general public. For a "quick fix" I can kanban my windows machine into the process. I need ftp to pull archives - this means they will be deleted as they are also flags to start the process - and after procesing they will be pushed to ftp in different folder. However, I have limited resources and I'd like to get as much as possible from official PHP unix build box. Ideally this means that the only thing that I have to do is point 4 - run HHC.EXE This way even PHP installation is not necessary. If everything will be fine the build process can be moved to snaps.php.net machine. At least I hope so. Launching HHC.EXE for an hour or two every two weeks does not place too much burden on usual server performance and is unlikely to cause any problems. Other "features" creeping in my head are - automatic one hour build postpone if last one failed, tight restrictions for user building manual to prevent script attacks through CVS just before the build starts (checkout for everything except manual can be made manually or triggered by the same people, who is able to upload files). To make the process more visible and "maintainable" for folks other than those who were lucky to read this letter I can render some BPEL diagrams later. And it is also possible to use SVN instead of FTP. Considering unmanagable featurecreep to time ratio of my own I can only hope that somebody will take care of these RFC. Perhaps as a subtask of Summer of Code. I could add much more detailed tasks at this page http://www.php.net/ideas.php I've just noticed. t --
