Re: [freenet-support] "Freenet Down!"

2004-07-27 Thread Nicholas Sturm
Oh, come now.  Does not anyone remember that a version number below 1.00 
or a variation there of means "developmental."
As long as any software is developmental it means failures of a new 
version is almost certain.  Even multi-billion companies can seldom 
produce software that runs on every machine.  I can think of one rather 
large company that can't (won't) even try to make software work if you 
run anything but their software on a freshly install machine.  Need I 
say who that company is?

Reading the big seednode files in takes a whole lot of memory. Using an 8MB
seednode.ref I had an initial memory usage of more the 200MB when fred starts,
which dropped to around 70MB after some minutes. As the current ref has 23MB
I suspect the initial memory usage to be gigantic.

[freenet-support] windows 2000 service

2004-07-27 Thread Phil
I've spent most of the day trying to get freenet to
run as a service in Windows 2000.  I'm almost there,
but there's one thing that I haven't been able to fix.

I used instsrv and srvany to get freenet.exe to run as
a service.  It works as long as I don't log off of
windows.  It will start fine when the system boots and
still runs when someone logs in.  But, as soon as the
user logs off, javavm dies.  If you log back in, the
freenet icon has a flashing ! saying that there's a
problem.  It will restart, but has the same problem if
the user logs off again.

[freenet-support] Stable build 5087

2004-07-27 Thread Toad
Stable build 5087 is now available. The snapshots have been updated.
Please upgrade. You can do this on Windows by using the update option on
the start menu. On Linux, OS/X etc, you can update by using the
update.sh script (and restart the node). You can alternatively shut down
your node and download http://freenetproject.org/snapshots/freenet-latest.jar 
over your existing freenet.jar, then restart your node.

To obtain best performance from this build, you will need to update your
freenet-ext.jar. Shut down the node, download the new freenet-ext.jar
from http://freenetproject.org/snapshots/freenet-ext.jar , copy it over
your existing freenet-ext.jar, and then restart the node. If you do
this, and you are using a supported platform (pentium 2/3/4, athlon, on
windows or linux), you should get a significant reduction in CPU usage
with this build. We have included native code optimizations for the
above platforms for certain heavy math operations that Freenet does
frequently and that Sun's implementation is not good at. Specifically,
on my Athlon XP, I get a factor of 8 performance gain on modPow(), which
is a very common operation in asymmetric crypto, and a big part of
Freenet's overall CPU usage. I also get a factor of 3 gain in
BigInteger.doubleValue(), which is used constantly in routing.

Other changes:
Fixed several major bugs introduced recently, which generally had the
effect of preventing the node from opening connections. These are
hopefully the main causes of the problems reported with 5085/5086;
obviously the node will not run well if it only has 10 or 20
connections. Also, back off connection attempts to a node if the
connection lasts less than 20 seconds.

Traffic padding improvements (reduced padding size to 200 bytes, laid
the groundwork for further reductions once 5087 is common by no longer
sending RequestInterval on all FNP messages, instead send smaller fixed
length packet-messages containing the MRI, one with every packet).

Fix a rare NPE, delete some unused code, add some comments, change some
logging, SuSE wants LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1 (not 2.2.5) in
start-freenet.sh.

If I am not mistaken, you are the only one that can cancel that
subscription (by logging into paypal with your username and doing it
from there).

Taken from a faq I found somewhere on the net:

1. Log into PayPal
2. Click "History"
3. Select "Subscriptions" from the "Show:" drop-down box.
4. You may need to select a longer timeframe from the "For:" drop-down
box if you have had your account longer than a month. Try selecting
"Past Year".
5. Press submit.
6. You should see an entry there for your Freenet subscription. There
will be a link in the "Status" column that tells you the status of the
subscription. If it says "Active", click it.
7. Click the button that says "Cancel Subscription" and follow the
remainder of the steps.

Kind regards.

This is the problem. This is caused by a bug I am going to fix. Which
affects both branches, and causes connections to fail.

[freenet-support] new stable(part 2)

2004-07-27 Thread Newsbyte



Ok...despite Ian telling me to f- read what toad 
wrote, what I feared would happen has happend: whether or not I let it run 
longer, it's still the same. Basically, it's still crap.
 
On the contrary, it seems to get worse the longer I 
let it on. In the very beginnings, it worked (more or less), but then it went 
steadily worse, untill nothing was retrievable. After some discussions (and the 
well-thought of responses on the maillist ;-) ) someone on IIP suggested to 
update my seednodes.ref. So I did. And indeed, when restarting things seemed to 
have improved.
 
I thought the seednodes didn't update when using 
the auto-update, but toad assured me they would/should. And I guess he might be 
right, because after a while it deteriorated again, untill it was as crappy as 
before.
 
And that is really crappy: my statusbar is around 
1-2% and stays there, no activelinks show up at all, etc.
 
Now, I AM using a router and what not, but it never 
deteriorated like this before, and build 5085 is supposed to work *better* with 
routers, right? So, I have basically no idea what is going on (neither do the 
coders, I suspect ;-)), but I'm pretty sure it's not due to being not 
well-connected to the network in the normal sense and that it will improve with 
time.
 
I would send some data on it, if I knew what 
exactly would be interesting to know. (openconnections?)
 


  
  
Connections open (Inbound/Outbound/Limit)
6 (0/6/200)
  
Transfers active (Transmitting/Receiving)
1 (0/1)
  
Data waiting to be transmitted/received

puny.

  Subject: new stable
  
  Tried it out, and thusfar...it's 
  crap.
   
  Maybe (hope so) this is temporary, but it 
  definately works WAY worse then it used to. Actually, I almost don't get 
  anything exept RNF, DNF and other 'can't connect' messages.
   
  I know it's maybe too early to tell, but what if 
  all the changes didn't do a thing (again) to improve Freenet? I mean...we 
  could be busy untill men land on mars and Bush becomes a saint (I would've 
  said an intelligent dude, but I want to keep it remotely 
  possible).
   
  If things don't work, and don't keep working, 
  maybe we should make a dramatic departure and throw away the concept of NGR 
  and the current bw/limiting shemes?
   
  Maybe we just made it too complicated, and we 
  should revert or at least think about moving it to something more simple 
  again, akin to the classical routing?
   
  Also, IMHO, one might implement something that 
  makes a node more keen on (more) rapidly using other nodes it 
  gets aware of, even if they seem - or are - 'less good' then the 
  seednodes. I think the seednodes.ref causes rather an all-to-long-remaining 
  bottleneck when contacting the network.
   
  Maybe it will get (preferable much) better, and I 
  truelly hope so, but if it doesn't it has been yet another giant waste of 
  time. I mean, I'm sure there are lots of improvements, but if endusers don't 
  see the difference and still get a crappy working network, it's rather 
  pointless.
   
  Maybe I'm just talking in a mood of 
  dissapointment, but, even as a fan of Freenet (or I wouldn't do what I'm 
  doing), I'm getting rather tired of all those months and even years of 
  'improvements' that just don't seem to materialise into a better, faster 
  Freenet. I've expressed my opinion before: I think the only chance of actually 
  getting somewhere, is by creating a large, 'real-life' testnetwork where the 
  actual workings can be followed in detail. Toads' little network already 
  showed some promise, but falls far short of what is needed.
   
  I can't but feel that, if we had done that a year 
  before, we would now be much further in the development and with a good chance 
  of having a working Freenet.
