This sounds good as far as it goes. But we still have 5 single points of failure in our build. I would rather set up a site or zone to host everything Geronimo needs, point all our builds to that only, and have it create nightly packages of all the dependencies in the Maven repo so a first-time user can download everything in one shot.
It will also help to get off Maven 1, but I think the steps above are needed to avoid driving first-time developers away. Thanks, Aaron On 6/6/06, Matt Hogstrom <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
All, I spent a couple of hours working with the Infra structure team on the build problems we've been experiencing. They were really helpful in isolating the problem and effecting a solution. Joes2 (IRC handle on #asfinfra) was the main contact point. The problem is that people.apache.org has a limit of 10 concurrent connections on it. The expectation was that Maven would only be using a single connection but that appears to not be the case. The Infrastructure team has temporarily lifted the restriction while the Maven team looks into the issue. For our part I tested a full build with a clean repo and it only failed once (and that was an ibiblio problem). At this point I think we should have smoother sailing. Next time you see an Infra guy/gal buy them a beer or two. They're awesome to work with. From the time we started talking to the time it was resolved was a little under two hours. Cheers, Matt
