[13:25:03] If I wanted to setup a postgre or mongodb project, would the recommended right now be for me to run the DB on a VPS (there isn't wnywhere else for it to run)? [13:54:00] addshore: mongodb is not available under an OSI approved license, so you can't run it at all :/ [13:54:16] aaah yes! [13:54:54] for postgres cloud vps is probably the best, either on a standalone vm or on Trove (https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Adding_a_Database_to_a_Cloud_VPS_Project) if it supports it properly, can't remember if it does [14:14:06] !log paws deploying https://github.com/toolforge/paws/pull/121 [14:14:09] Logged the message at https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Nova_Resource:Paws/SAL [19:06:09] I just discovered I've, my ip has been blocked, but NOT just one block SEVERAL!  Now I've been, what I thought originally two years ago, HACKED!

[20:11:36] Hi, I'm trying to sudo a command on toolforge, but there doesn't seem to be any documentation on sudo passwords etc that I can find? Any advice? [20:17:03] What command are you trying to run? [20:17:15] You're not going to be able to sudo to run commands as root... [20:18:44] The software I'm trying to install needs docker, which is the thing I need root to install - if that's not possible I can try doing it manually instead [20:19:33] what exactly are you trying to do? [20:19:33] which software? [20:19:45] https://glitchtip.com/documentation/install [20:21:25] ah it looks like I should really use WMCS here instead of Toolforge [20:21:33] nvmm but ty [20:23:06] lol [20:23:31] looks like that's a client-side event logger. who wants to guess if it'll be implemented within the bounds of the WMCS TOU? [20:25:16] Of course [20:25:16] Opt in, transparent privacy policy and may modify to ensure reports are anonymous [20:25:18] Just helps a lot with beta stuff and tracking wide scale use (re @wmtelegram_bot: looks like that's a client-side event logger. who wants to guess if it'll be implemented within the bounds of th...) [20:26:52] >An open source reimplementation of Sentry error tracking platform. [20:27:00] then https://glitchtip.com/pricing [20:27:01] lol [20:27:16] that's just paid hosting/support [20:27:37] lots of open source projects provide commercial options for hosting (mongoDB, etc.) [20:27:52] it's a better business model than open core at least [20:28:12] you just have to hope they don't go the way of elastic, or sentry, or OTRS, or... [20:30:41] they *probably* should have GPL'd this project instead of using MIT [20:31:01] !log tools restarting acme-chief to debug T298353 [20:31:06] Logged the message at https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Nova_Resource:Tools/SAL [20:31:06] T298353: problem with let's encrypt cert for star.tools.wmflabs.org - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T298353 [21:12:22] I am trying this API from my toolforge tool, but despite the user being logged in, it returns toolforge IP address when I ask which user is logged in 🤔 https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Userinfo [21:13:16] or maybe that's not the purpose of that API ? [21:13:58] You probably aren't actually logged in. Or haven't passed the right cookies back in your request to tha API [21:14:13] yes, that's teh second most probably [21:15:05] the way to do that is not in the php example , apparently [21:16:41] Which PHP example? [21:17:01] this one - https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Userinfo#PHP (re @wmtelegram_bot: Which PHP example?) [21:18:57] That API works fine logged out [21:19:32] So the example doesn't necessarily need to show with it logging in first (but it could do) [21:20:43] yes, it works as if it was logged out - but I'm logged in, in the tool (when I attempt to login I get the message that I'm already logged in) [21:22:28] You could use something like https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Block#PHP for reference [21:23:24] thanks! (re @wmtelegram_bot: You could use something like https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Block#PHP for reference)
