Variation in ListId values
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 ‘

mail error is breaking sanity test reporting
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

Bugzilla and htmlify
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

Commits to multiple branches
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 branches means to FreshPorts
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

Session variables! Almost. Not quite.
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

Multiple repos – good progress
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 branches, multiple repos
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

Adding code, removing more code to reduce duplication
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
