Sat Nov 22 10:59:43 CET 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r5679:

  * scanner: make the usage of md5 hashes optional, and disable it

    by default

  * mb tool (mirrordoctor): rework file subcommand

  * remove md5 support from mod_zrkadlo

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Tue Nov 18 00:25:28 CET 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r5623:

  add interim support for queries that don't use the extra hashes

  to look up files in the database, but access them directly by

  filename. This could eventually serve to get rit of the extra

  hash column, and let a database index do the job.

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Sun Nov 16 15:24:42 CET 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- added shortcut 'mb' for the longish 'mirrordoctor' command

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Sun Nov  9 19:24:09 CET 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r5573

  * mod_zrkadlo: avoid false compile warning about comparison with

    string literal

- compile geoiplookup_continent tool with RPM_OPT_FLAGS

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Sun Nov  9 18:03:01 CET 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r5570:

  mod_zrkadlo release 2.1:

  * simplified the Apache configuration: It is no longer needed to

    configure a database query. At the same time it's less

    error-prone and avoids trouble if one forgets to update the

    query, when the database schema changes.

  * specific mirrors can be now configured to get only requests

    for files < n bytes

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Mon Nov  3 17:47:08 CET 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r5506:

  smallish mirrordoctor updates:

  * when listing files matching a pattern, show actual filename,

    not the pattern

  * add support for editing of the new other_countries database

    field

  * add first stub for mirror tests ('test' subcommand)

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Mon Nov  3 12:43:42 CET 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r5498:

  mod_zrkadlo release 2.0:

  * implement better fallback mirror selection. Fallback mirrors

    are now defined in the database (server.other_countries column)

    and used only when no local mirror could be found (fallback).

    The obsolete ZrkadloTreatCountryAs directive has been removed.

  * double-check for empty base URLs of mirrors

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Wed Oct 29 16:24:03 CET 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r5469:

  * new subcommand 'mirrordoctor file' for file operations on the

    mirror database. It can list files add add/remove them.

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Tue Oct 28 23:27:20 CET 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r5465:

  * new subcommand 'mirrordoctor vacuum' for database pruning.

    Incorporates the functionality of previous /usr/bin/vacuum.

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Mon Oct 27 12:47:27 CET 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r5445:

  * add geoip-lite-update, a script to automate updates of the

    GeoIP database

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Mon Oct 27 10:22:49 CET 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r5442:

  * fix link to bittorrent resources.

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Mon Oct 27 03:46:23 CET 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r5441:

  mod_zrkadlo version 1.9:

  * Check for files ending in .torrent, and if one exists, add a link

    to it into generated metalinks. New directive

    ZrkadloMetalinkTorrentAddMask, which can used to limit this

    additional check to specific files or directories.

  * rewrote HTML mirror list

  * add configurable CSS stylesheet to mirror lists

    (ZrkadloMirrorlistStyleSheet directive)

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Fri Oct 24 23:14:38 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r5427:

  * metalink-hasher: add PGP signatures into <verification> block

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Wed Sep 24 01:33:13 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r5127:

  * mirrorprobe: 

     - make sure that we don't try to access non-existing attribute

       named code when it doesn't exist (like for FTP urls)

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Fri Sep 19 21:10:38 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r5090:

  * rsyncusers: 

     - new, performant, implementation in Python. Uses Python

       generators, which means it allocates only few memory and

       works similar a Unix pipe. The tool will now transparently

       open uncompressed, gzip or bzip2 compressed files.

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Tue Sep  2 15:48:37 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r4855:

  * mod_zrkadlo: 

     - implement the redirection exceptions (file too small, mime

       type not allowed to be redirected etc) for transparently

       negotiated metalinks.

     - add Vary header on all transparently negotiated resources.

     - remove depracated negotiation on Accept-Features.

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Fri Aug 29 22:36:23 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r4830:

  * scanner: 

     - more fixes to deal with more variants of the HTML autoindex breed.

     - append ?F=1 to HTTP requests (autoindex modifier)

  * mirrorprobe: 

    - add the name of the mirrorbrain instance to warning mails

  * mod_autoindex_mb: if metalink or mirrorlists are active, add

    our signature

  * update INSTALL for creating new mirrors

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Thu Aug 28 15:44:24 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r4800:

  * metalink-hasher: 

     - don't drop the <pieces> elements. Our metalinks were lacking

       the length of hash pieces due to this bug. Clients were

       probably ignoring the partial hashes.

  * mirrordoctor list: 

     - add --disabled option to show only disable mirrors

  * mirrordoctor scan:

     - leave a comment after successful scanning and enabling

     - add -a|--all option to pass to the scanner

     - remove -f option which is redundant somehow

  * mirrordoctor new: 

     - improve usage. The -i option is no longer needed, the

       identifier is simply given as argument to the command. This

       is more in line with the other subcommands.

     - don't print SQL when not in debug mode.

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Wed Aug 27 12:47:13 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r4788:

  * mirrordoctor rename: fix the call which looks up mirrors.

    mirrordoctor new: set default values for 'enabled' and

    'status_baseurl', for tables that don't do it

  * mirrorprobe: add newlines before appending stuff to comments;

    don't try to remove stuff from comments, since multiline

    comments are now commonly used.

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Mon Aug 25 14:58:40 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r4765:

  * mirrorprobe: fix for another irregularity caused by Nginx web servers

  * scanner: fix forking with multiple instances

  * metalink-hasher: add missing quoting

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Sat Aug 23 01:01:03 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r4758:

  scanner improvements:

   - enable to parse HTML table autoindexes.

   - be more robust when detecting autoindexes.

  mirrordoctor fixes:

   - add option to specify path to scanner program

   - fix calling the scanner when no instance has been specified

   - add python-cmdln to Requires

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Fri Aug 22 19:24:59 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r4753:

  mirrorprobe: include the instance name into the log messages

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Fri Aug 22 18:18:02 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r4752:

  - pingd was renamed to "mirrorprobe".

    And it also deals with multi mirrorbrain instances now.

    In addition, it ignores proxy settings now.

  - simplified interface of the mirrorbrain python module (mb)

  - updated INSTALL docs

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Thu Aug 21 20:10:36 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r4731:

  * mod_zrkadlo:

    - add ZrkadloInstance directive that can be set per mirrorbrain

      instance. To be set in server context, thus each instance needs

      a virtual host.

    - include the instance name into memcache keys

    - add new reconnect=0 parameter (that comes with apr-util-1.3.3)

      to mysql driver example configuration (prepared statements are

      gone after reconnection so that it does not make sense to

      reanimate dead connections. See

      https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=45407)

  * scanner:

    - make scanner work with multiple mirrorbrain instances (-b

      option)

    - fixed bnc394470: added 302, 303 and 307 codes to the check

  * mirrordoctor:

    - make it work with multiple mirrorbrain instances

    - list: hide disabled mirrors by default

    - add a rename subcommand

    - when disabling a mirror, set statusBaseurl to zero, so when

      re-enabling the mirror it doesnt' matter if it is not actually

      online.

  * pingd:

    - make sure that the mirror objects always have the response and

      response_code attributes set

  * SQL schema changes:

    - ensure that the identifier column of the mirror table doesn't

      allow duplicates

    - set a default value for the 'enabled' and 'status_baseurl'

      columns in the mirrors table

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Fri Jun 20 16:03:55 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r4228:

  * mirrordoctor update:

    - make the commandline simpler -- now it is possible to just

      give a substring of the mirror identifier, instead of the

      full name (or -m)

    - add more options to the 'scan' command

    - add 'score' command

    - add setup.py file to make the the module installable

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Wed Jun 18 18:06:22 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r4210:

  * mirror probe (ping script): fix crash when encountering a server

    which replies with broken chunked transfer encoding.

    nginx/0.6.29 does that.  See http://bugs.python.org/issue1205

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Mon Jun 16 00:48:25 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r4178:

  * added mirrordoctor, a new commandline tool to maintain mirror

    entries in the redirector database.

  * build with aprutil 1.3, which ships apr_memcache. Thus, the

    latter is not separately available (and required) anymore.

    - Change the code which fetches rows from the query result set to

      do this in random access mode. Although we actually just want

      to access them sequentially, we need to do it this way because

      (at least at with the mysql driver) apr_dbd_get_row() doesn't

      return anything useful anymore if apr_dbd_num_tuples() has been

      called before. With apr-util 1.2.x, it worked nevertheless, but

      it doesn't with 1.3.

  * For wildcard mirrors (Content Delivery Networks), set their

    country and region to that of the client, so it turns up as

    useful data which the client understands in mirrorlists or

    metalinks.

  - enhance the metalink-hasher tool in two ways:

    - make it possible to run it on a subdirectory only

    - make it possible to work with different base directories --

      which is useful if content is living in a stage area, but you

      want to create the hash pieces already.

  - rsyncusers tool: fix invalid shell code (spaces around '=')

  - add example configuration snippet for mod_memcache

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Tue Jun 10 10:33:51 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- build service supports the debuginfo flag in metadata now; remove

  debug_package macro from the specfile therefore.

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Mon Jun  9 14:57:13 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r4133:

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Tue May 20 14:54:19 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r4002:

  - rsyncinfo: tabulate the output

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Thu May 15 00:58:43 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- don't package build intermediaries from mod_autoindex

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Fri May  2 18:49:52 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r3877:

  - implement a testbed for testing failover with clients using

    text mirror lists; the server will inject broken mirrors at the

    top of the list if the user-agent is

    'getPrimaryFailover-agent/0.1'

  - add rsyncinfo, script to get info on modules of rsync servers

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Wed Apr 30 19:33:06 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r3874:

- It was agreed that the new Metalink spec (3.0) will probably use

  RFC 3339 date and time format, but continue to use plain old

  RFC822 format.

- add ZrkadloMetalinkPublisher directive to make name and url in

  publisher data configurable

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Wed Apr 30 14:49:28 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r3871:

  - fix issue with requesting metalinks by appending ".metalink":

    the <size> element in metalinks was not filled in correctly

    anymore.

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Sun Apr 27 23:12:35 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r3844:

  - now there is another, more natural, way to request a metalink:

    by appending ".metalink" to the filename

  - mod_autoindex_mb now creates links with .metalink appended,

    instead of ?metalink

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Sun Apr 27 12:10:39 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r3840:

  - also return metalinks to clients which send

    application/metalink+xml in the Accept request header.

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Mon Apr 21 18:17:24 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r3766:

  - mod_zrkadlo 1.7

  - implement a terse text mirrorlist (suitable for e.g.

    http://en.opensuse.org/Libzypp/Failover)

  - allow clients to use RFC2295 Accept-Features header to select

    variants (metalink or mirrorlist-txt)

  - implement ZrkadloMetalinkHashesPathPrefix directive, for

    out-of-tree placement of prepared metalink hashes

  - work on unifying configuration handling of the tools, and make

    them all use /etc/mirrorbrain.conf

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Sat Apr 19 16:52:40 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r3752:

  - metalinks:

   - add RFC 2183 header with filename + ".metalink"

   - avoid putting -- (from failed GeoIP lookup) into XML comments,

     since they will be seen as comment terminators

  - add mod_autoindex_mb.c which adds metalinks and mirrorlists to

    generated indexes

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Fri Apr 18 19:59:38 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r3749:

  - bypass the redirection exceptions for metalinks, just as for

    mirrorlists

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Thu Apr 17 18:17:29 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r3738:

    requests

  - small documentation updates 

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Mon Apr  7 23:46:19 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r3664:

  - updated THANKS file

  - some documentation updates in ABOUT file

  - remove useless header from mod_zrkadlo response

  - don't include the server_admin email address into the metalink 

  - update metalink generator name

- actually install the new THANKS file

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Fri Apr  4 18:08:35 CEST 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r3634:

- version 1.6

- implement metalink support (http://www.metalinker.org)

- move the block where the single mirror is selected for

  redirection to after the mirrorlist/metalink if branch. It is not

  needed to do that work when metalink or mirrorlist is generated.

- fix a bug I just discovered, but which has been existing since

  ever. I didn't allocate memory for mirror_entry's country_code

  member. 

- seed the RNG with getpid() instead of time(), because if the

  server is started several processes are forked off and get the

  same seed. Even though it doesn't play a real role in production,

  it is confusing when working in a debug setting (with many fresh

  starts).

- THANKS file added

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Fri Mar 28 17:31:56 CET 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r3592:

  - updated install documentation

  - scanner bugfixes, and HTTP large file capability check

    - fixed http_readdir: passes correct urls to largefile_check

    - scan tests with -j <n>, single servers, -a with mem verification

      -- some aborts in single jpobs occured due to rsync errors

      -- no infinite hangs

    - bugfix: wrong/broken urls were passed to the largefile sanity

      check thus creating false positives

    - http redirects 301 to ftp urls are treated as valid

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Thu Mar  6 19:23:00 CET 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r3441:

  - scanner: get rid of hardcoded database credentials 

  - integration of sanity checks for large files: large files

    visible on rsync/ftp which can't be downloaded via http are not

    put to the database anymore. Thanks, Jan!

  - set_mirror_score: also use the central conf file

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Thu Mar  6 18:25:54 CET 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- add perl-Config-IniFiles to requires

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Thu Feb 28 13:57:53 CET 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- add package requires for mod_form, GeoIP, python-mysql,

  python-sqlobject

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Thu Feb 28 08:20:36 CET 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r3189:

- the last change (version bump) wasn't actually probagated,

  because I forgot to re-spin the tarball. Here it is.

- install the tools

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Wed Feb 27 19:33:24 CET 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r3188:

  - version 1.5

  - updated documentation

  - mirrorlist fixes:

    - ensure that any "clientip" parameter from query string

      represents a valid IP address, in order to keep generated

      HTML clean, so not to allow XSS attacks

    - set character set for HTML output generated to ISO-8859-1

    - fix mirrorlist for the case where no mirror is found. Now an

      empty list is created, instead of sending the file in

      question.

    - when user asks for mirror list, don't DECLINE if the file

      would normally being excluded from redirection by one of the

      various criteria (size, user agent, ...)

  - use GeoIP_id_by_addr() instead of the deprecated (acc. to

    GeoIP.h) GeoIP_country_id_by_addr()

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Wed Feb 13 16:28:58 CET 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r3124:

  - add details about the request to the subprocess_env table, so

    then can be logged via a CustomLog:

    - ZRKADLO_FILESIZE, the size of the file which was requested

    - ZRKADLO_COUNTRY_CODE and ZRKADLO_CONTINENT_CODE

 - if a mirror's baseurl doesn't end in '/', append it. Otherwise a

   non-working redirect URL could result.

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Thu Jan 24 20:40:43 CET 2008 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r3056:

  - version 1.4

  - refined mirror selection by observing two additional server

    attributes in the database: country_only and region_only.

    - country_only=1 means that a mirror is not willing to receive requests from

      countries other than its own.

    - region_only=1 means that a mirror is not taking redirects from other

      continents, likewise.

    This is good for countries with poor internet connectivity.

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Tue Oct  2 15:51:31 CEST 2007 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r2298:

  - version 1.3

  - implement ZrkadloExcludeNetwork directive, which allows for

    excluding client IPs from being redirected (simple string

    prefix comparison)

  - implement ZrkadloExcludeIP directive, which matches on IP

    address

  - replace apr_strnatcmp/apr_strnatcasecmp with their simpler

    glibc counterparts

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Mon Oct  1 23:55:17 CEST 2007 - poeml@suse.de

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Thu Sep 20 20:57:55 CEST 2007 - poeml@suse.de

​

- update to r2244:

  - version 1.2

  - shorten the SQL query by looking up the base64 encoded md5sum

    of the filename in file_server.path_md5, avoiding an additional

    join on file.name. Needs an adjusted SQL query string, as shown

    in the example mod_zrkadlo.conf.

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Fri Sep 14 04:17:19 CEST 2007 - poeml@suse.de
