FreshPorts processes commits via email. That is, email coming in from the mailing list are received by FreshPorts, parsed, and the resulting data loaded into the database. Today a problem arose. I received these error messages: This List-Id/Message-Id combination is not known to this script. List-Id=’SVN commit messages for the ports tree for head ‘ […]

A mail error is breaking many things, including the daily reports and sanity test failures. This problem is only on production, not on dev. The error is: could not open Mail::Sender. from=’FreshPorts Sanity Daemon <FreshPorts@example.org>’ to=’kwm@example.org’ subject=’FreshPorts sanity checking’ errorcode=’-24′ errormsg=’IO::Socket::SSL- >start_SSL failed: SSL connect attempt failed with unknown error error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed’ I

Yesterday I tweeted that FreshPorts now directs you to bugs.freebsd.org for a PR. I noticed the URL typo but I was headed to bed. Today, @FreeBSDHelp told me that links involving a category were wrong. Here’s the patch: The first half fixed the case for ports/1234 etc. The second half fixes: PR 1234, 123, and

Tonight I started doing some database structure changes for branches. I thought: Hopefully nobody commits to two branches at once. Yes. They do. Oh oh. mat gave me a few examples: http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=758626+0+current/svn-src-all http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=747218+0+current/svn-src-all http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=735782+0+current/svn-src-all Look at those URLs and you’ll see: Changes in other areas also in this revision. The code already ignores everything after

What do you want out of FreshPorts? You want to know: What is available What version Any notes in UPGRADING Any vulnerabilities You want to know about this for HEAD and for RELENG_9_1_0. You want to know that on HEAD, sysutils/bacula-server is version 5.2.12_3, but on head, it’s 5.2.12. That’s important. That’s commit history. FreshPorts

Yesterday, I wrote about some great progress on getting FreshPorts to work with multiple repositories to cater for the branches of the FreeBSD ports tree. At the end of that post, I talked briefly about wanting global settings or variables for my stored procedures. Shortly after posting that, I found a solution in the form

Today I managed to make quite a bit of progress trying to incorporate multiple ports trees into the commit processing. The diff is about 985 lines long. It’s not as complex as it sounds. I just have to pass $CommitBranch around to various functions. The result: I have the commits going into the database, but
Multiple repos – good progress Read More »
I just realized (although, deep in the recesses of my innocent mind, I suspect I knew) that FreshPorts will require one repo for each branch. The email on the svn ports branches mailing list includes multiple branches. A quick glance around the archives finds me these branches: RELENG_9_1_0 RELENG_9_2_0 2014Q1 I know there will be

In a recent post, I said: That second patch uses the same string you saw above in the previous patch. Yes, it would be better to have added that string to just one place. I welcome patches for that change. Today I will show you that code. With help from Matthias Andree on IRC, I

As mentioned in my previous post, if FreshPorts is to display commits from every branch, it is going to need one check-out of each branch of the ports tree. Tonight I started looking into that and hit a snag in an unexpected area: name length. I do most of my development work from within jails.
