Site outage / Domain Transfer

Thanks everyone for helping with the outage.

… and we are back!

  • osgeo directory (treasure) verified domain will be accepted by osgeo

  • regina is waiting for transfer, and has been introduced to planet personal

  • unclear if planet is just focused on geosever.org, or also geowebcache.org and others…

website contents:

  • osgeo website is ready, just needs to be populated

  • alexandre volunteered if can be given access to jenkins, waiting on email to geosever-devel with jenkins login name

Log4j upgrade proposal

GSIP-167 quote expired last friday, Feb 11th. Goal was to start work in time for 2.21-RC.

initial: 75% of funds raised to a maximum of €5000 Feb 11, to allow time to complete upgrade for 2.21-RC

updated: 75% of funds raised to a maximum of €5000 Feb 18, may delay 2.21-RC

As above

  • Updated with Feb 18th, but this will delay 2.21-RC :slight_smile:

Upcoming release schedule

See https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/wiki/Release-Schedule

  • Feb 18th: 2.19.5 final maintenance release?

  • Please disable 2.19.x jobs when done? No we should keep it going for 6 months …

  • March 4th: 2.21-RC - delayed due to log4j upgrade

  • Note this will disable 2.19.x jobs

  • However 2.18.x is still active to support geonode developers? Is it time to disable 2.18.x nightly builds …

  • March 18th: 2.21.0

Who has availability?

  • action: ask email list on release manager availability

  • action: Check with geonode developers about disabling 2.18.x / 2.18.x nightly builds

Review feedback on active community modules

Feedback from geoserver-devel – what to cull…

Andrea checked internally about the community modules we had some relation with:

  • gwc-distributed: still alive? > Can be eliminated.

  • rest-upload: ask in GeoSolutions > Same here, can go

  • wms-eo: still active? check in GeoSolutions > Still seeing a bit of usage, to be revisited next time we look at community modules cleanup

Would really like to see supported extensions with active tests:

  • app-schema: build server online tests disabled, run locally for geoserver

  • jdbc-hana: contact for a github action or something …

what is wrong with app-schema:

[ERROR] testSameNameDiffNamespace1(org.geoserver.test.PropertySelectionTest) Time elapsed: 0.23 s <<< ERROR!

java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.NullPointerException

Discussion:

  • working locally for developers

  • oracle is broken, requires some scripts that are not available in recent oracle

  • may be able to check is functionality is available (say on an older version)

  • mongodb test was working by luck, json order dependent

  • consider moving to github actions, and not lean so much on jenkins

Chit Chat

gis.stacexchange activity since 2016 (tag: geoserver)

  • common questions have been answered

  • geoserver is getting (20 years) old :slight_smile:

Translations progress - lots happening, no specific details though
