Any objection? 18:16:13 <eseyman> works for me 18:16:20 <pboy> #action pboy will create a summary of our discussion about service specific timeouts. 18:16:33 <pboy> Another question is, what about interdependencies between services. That is the argument of Collin Walters (CoreOS) 18:16:42 <pboy> CoreOS decided to use the overwrite option and to keep the pld default. 18:17:14 <pboy> Maybe, we discuss that on mailing list and make a final decision next meeting? 18:18:55 <x3mboy> +1 18:19:09 <pboy> OK 18:19:44 <pboy> #action pboy will open a mailing list discussion about interdependencies between services and the consequences. 18:20:10 <pboy> I think we are done with this topic? 18:20:28 <eseyman> yes (just in time, too) 18:20:38 <pboy> Yeah 18:20:49 <pboy> #topic 3. Using Ansible to install and configure Wildfly 18:20:59 <pboy> That's our Ansible pilot project!! 18:21:07 <pboy> #link https://pagure.io/fedora-server/issue/60 18:21:13 <pboy> We had some discussion here: 18:21:22 <pboy> #link https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/server@lists.fedoraproject.org/2022/12/ 18:21:29 <pboy> #link https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/server@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/HEHEXBYFVD6E6SG33SOGJBREAEBJHGLE/ 18:21:38 <pboy> #link https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/server@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/HEHEXBYFVD6E6SG33SOGJBREAEBJHGLE/?sort=thread 18:21:49 <jdubby> My current issue is various blogs/how-to want you to add xml snippets to standalone.xml. But they don't tell you where in the file to add the snippet. 18:22:53 <pboy> I've to admit, I'm a bit lost after all these unfortunate postponed discussion. 18:22:59 <jdubby> The snippets they want you to add don't seem to be found in any of the schema parts distributed with wildfly. 18:23:48 <jdubby> I tried to "ansibleize" the blog found at https://developer.jboss.org/people/fjuma/blog/2018/08/31/obtaining-certificates-from-lets-encrypt-using-the-wildfly-cli#jive_content_id_Obtaining_a_certificate_from_Lets_Encrypt 18:24:15 <pboy> Seems we have to find a Wildfly expert, or an aAnsible expert? 18:24:27 <jdubby> But I am having issues with getting wildfly to use tls between the browser and wildfly. 18:24:46 <eseyman> this looks like a wildfly issue more than it is an ansible one 18:24:58 <jdubby> It clearly is a wildfly issue. 18:26:32 <pboy> So we have 2 unresolved issues: 18:26:56 <pboy> a) TLS between apache and Wildfly web app 18:27:17 <pboy> b) Tiansiblefy Wildfly 18:27:20 <pboy> right? 18:28:16 <jdubby> Correct. I have a great deal of the ansiblification done. Without tls, I can get wildfly to execute. 18:28:34 <pboy> very good! 18:28:48 <pboy> jdubby Do we have a publicly accessible installation anythere ? 18:28:52 <eseyman> jdubby: this is yours, right? https://gitlab.com/jwhimpel/wildfly-ansible 18:29:28 <jdubby> Yes, I still need to update the "inventory" files in the repo. I'll get that done today or tomorrow. 18:29:29 <pboy> s/anythere/anywhere 18:30:07 <jdubby> I think if we could identify a wildfly configuration expert, this issue could be quickly solved. 18:30:08 <eseyman> jdubby, please ping the mailing list once the repo is current. I'll clone then and take a look 18:30:44 <jdubby> Will do. 18:30:50 <eseyman> thank you 18:31:47 <pboy> jdubby I tried to install it on one of my (public) servers. Do already you have a public server anywhere? 18:32:03 <pboy> with Wildfly installed 18:32:50 <jdubby> No. It's only installed in my home behind a nat firewall. 18:33:44 <pboy> OK. Would it be helpfull to have a public server where anybody of us can login (with admin privs) so we can share alle the details? I can provide one. 18:34:22 <jdubby> Let me know how to access and I will work on getting an instance up and running. 18:34:52 <pboy> jdubby OK, I'll do it tomorrow (Thursday) and provide you with the login data. 18:35:15 <jdubby> I have been using nginx but I think it should not be too hard to convert to httpd. 18:35:45 <pboy> We can configure that server freely. It's just for our Wildfly project. 18:36:34 <pboy> As an Resume: 18:36:58 <pboy> a) eseyman will look at the updated repo 18:37:32 <pboy> b) pboy will provide a public server where we can work in a cooperative work on all the details 18:37:56 <pboy> That's so far. 18:38:02 <pboy> Anything else? 18:38:10 <jdubby> c) jdubby will update his repo 18:38:23 <pboy> +1 18:38:45 <pboy> #action jdubby will update his repo 18:38:55 <pboy> #action eseyman will look at the updated repo 18:39:07 <pboy> #action pboy will provide a public server where we can work in a cooperative work on all the details 18:39:57 <pboy> Are we done with this topic so far? 18:40:38 <pboy> OK 18:40:41 <jdubby> I'm done for now 18:40:45 <eseyman> same here 18:40:49 <pboy> #topic 4. Fedora Website revamp – Fedora Server Edition pages 18:41:03 <pboy> #link Issue #66: https://pagure.io/fedora-server/issue/66 18:41:16 <pboy> #link Mailing List: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/server@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/7QJHY6E422W6SGLMETH5VFOUY6IKJA3P/ 18:41:46 <pboy> It look as if we have a status that can go online? 18:41:53 <mowest> I summarized the current status and issues in the email I sent to the server list this morning. The only thing that I will add is that Emma is hoping to have the last of the graphic assets done by tomorrow, and then the team wants to take a break from our landing page and move onto other website revamp issues. 18:41:56 <pboy> mowest the floor is yours 18:42:39 <pboy> Is there time to discuss that in 14 days? 18:42:57 <pboy> Or is there a deadline? 18:43:37 <eseyman> mowest: so this is near-final? https://fedora.gitlab.io/websites-apps/fedora-websites/fedora-websites-3.0/server 18:43:55 <mowest> I think the team would like to call our current landing page done for now and ready for the F38 rollout. We will have opportunities to make changes after the rollout I believe. 18:44:13 <mowest> Yes, what is there is considered by the team to be near final. 18:44:23 <eseyman> I like it 18:44:40 <pboy> me too 18:44:57 <jdubby> +1 18:45:16 <mowest> Good I'm glad everyone is okay with the 1.0 version of the revamp. 18:46:00 <mowest> I have requested new graphic assets for the last three "features" that is what Emma is working on today and tomorrow. 18:46:36 <pboy> mowest Is there a chance for a better Logo the the current? 18:46:50 <pboy> s/the/then 18:47:20 <mowest> @pboy, I don't know if we can get a better logo at this stage. I know you aren't crazy about the orange. :-) 18:47:54 <pboy> OK. let's hope, and maybe you can nag a bit? 18:48:19 <pboy> Anything else here? 18:48:27 <mowest> Do you have any suggestions to give them some direction. 18:48:45 <pboy> not really at the moment 18:48:54 <mowest> I don't have anything else at this time, I'm thankful for all of the work the website team has put into our page. 18:49:13 <eseyman> yes, huge congrats to the website team 18:49:17 <pboy> maybe a small version of the header graphic (stacked servers)? 18:49:37 <pboy> mowest +1 18:49:40 <mowest> In what color @pboy? 18:50:25 <pboy> mowest I don't know, not orange :-). I think a designer knows best (even if it is orange) 18:50:42 <mowest> Ok :-) 18:50:48 <mowest> I'm done. 18:50:59 <pboy> Something else? 18:51:13 <pboy> Otherwise I'll switch 18:51:15 <mowest> You can move to the next topic. 18:51:55 <pboy> #topic 5. Open Floor 18:52:27 <pboy> I visited Fosdem this year. It was very interesting. 18:52:41 <pboy> There will be a Fedora Magazine article. 18:52:50 * luna was also there helping out in the Fedora booth :) (looking forward to the article) 18:53:10 <pboy> Next year we should have a speech about Fedora Server 18:53:28 <pboy> luna +1 to your work We have met, haven't we? 18:53:47 <luna> pboy: yeah i think so you where the one asking for the getting starting guide stuff right? 18:54:15 <pboy> Yes, it was me. :-) 18:54:20 <luna> then we did :) 18:54:28 <pboy> good! 18:54:42 <eseyman> pboy: I would have reconsidered not going if I had known you would be there 18:55:21 <pboy> As I said, we should aim to have a talk about Fedora server next year, maybe about our Ansible project. 18:56:02 <pboy> eseyman thank you. I must admit, it was quite spontaneous 18:56:39 <pboy> I had some concerns about Covit and the Deutsche Bundesbahn (train company) 18:57:36 <pboy> I think there is a meeting in August in Europe (Spain?) 18:57:49 <pboy> x3mboy as an ambassador, do you know details? 18:57:49 <eseyman> we'll need to plan ahead of FOSDEM 2024 a meeting 18:58:02 <pboy> eseyman +1 18:59:57 <pboy> Obviously, we don't know about this summer at the moment. 19:00:09 <pboy> OK,. time is up 19:00:15 <pboy> anything else? 19:00:29 <eseyman> I'm good 19:00:36 <jdubby> Thanks to everyone who participated today.
