Dear Gil,

Thanks for pointing it out, I already detected some problems and am working through the list of builds.
Great!

This is one of the problems we saw in that Jenkins works well for static situation (which we had for quite some time :-) but for release it was suboptimal with a lot of manual labour. We should have a defined set of variables that are read from all builds so that it is only necessary to change in 1 place, not in 60+ places as we have it today.

+1

I totally agree that we should eliminate hard coded values as much as possible.  We have learned a great deal from this release cycle and many things have changed since 4.2.0 was released. Taking good notes and making improvements now while the lessons are fresh will go a long way to a smooth 5.0.1 and/or 5.1.0 release.  Thank you so much for all your work, much of it unseen by the development community!


I note everything for the next time we intend to do a release

For information Jenkins is now on the latest LTS release version, 2.375.1

P.O.,

I noticed this morning a bunch of new files "released" on SF, both documents and builds.  I assume these were triggered by 12588 that you recently committed. However there is a problem with the naming of the builds.  Here is an example: /oorexx/5.1.0beta/ooRexx-5.0.0-12558.linuxmint20.x86_64.deb
Note the 5.0.0 in the file name.  Hopefully this is easy to fix.

Dear Gil,

Sorry for the lagging reply, I have been AFK for a while.

Thanks for the offer, I can get (parts of) the 4.2 documentation from the Win installer on sourceforge but it would not be the complete set since the Unix/Linux documents are not there. Instead I downloaded the source and could successfully build the 4.2 documentation, which is the most important (after 5.0.0) I think. It gave me the possibility to improve my scripts somewhat :-)

We should be thinking of how to deliver also the *nixes with documentation. Even the macOS before 5.0.0 lack the documentation.

The documentation before 4.2 I could not rebuild, it has a different layout, I would probably have to revive Publican again.

I thought I had found the documentation back on the Wayback machine <https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwj3yKX375n8AhW3SPEDHeebAZ0QFnoECAkQAQ&url=https://archive.org/web/&usg=AOvVaw1olZ8IYxs_xjPuf-Ft5fso> Everything appeared to be there. Alas, what was stored was the link to the “Your Download will start in 5 seconds…” script so no actual data was present, just the layout so to speak.

I hope there is a backup on Sourceforge, I have not yet heard from the support there.

I am upgrading the Jenkins system today and will start it later tonight.

I have 4.2.0 for Windows 64 bit installed which has the included PDFs.  Let me know if you need them.

I have some god news and some bad news

The good news:

FreeBSD is now revision 12583, I rebuilt it manually
macOS is also 12583, but now with the correct documentation
Ubuntu22 has been renamed to Ubuntu2204 (to indicate LTS version)

I set the date to 2022-12-23 so all installers have the same date (except Ubuntu for S390X, still revision 12506)

The proposed download for Windows is Windows 64 bit,
The proposed download for macOS now 5.0.0, not 4.1
The proposed download for BSD is FreeBSD
I did not indicate any Linux default since we have several platforms

The bad news: My FTP client played me a trick and erased the entire oorexx-docs when I ordered it to delete oorexx-docs/5.0.0beta :-(

I recreated oorexx-docs and uploaded 5.0.0 again and I have asked on Sourceforge to get the other folders back from a backup but I guess they are not so active over Christmas

If anyone have copies of at least the latest version of the documentation for version 4 I would like to have a copy so I can upload it.

If nothing else works I will rebuild it manually from source.

Rony asked that no changes be made to the documentation right now, he wanted to do something first.

I will reactivate Jenkins build system from trunk tomorrow.
