Re: [DNG] devuan gitea broken?

2021-09-23 Thread Ralph Ronnquist via Dng
This one turned out to be that someone (aka me) had mistakenly raised a
blanket traffic blockage as a misdirected response to an apparent DoS
effect via gitea accesses. Things should be better now, at least until I
have another go at dealing with the same problem.

Hi,
just wanted to tell that the gitea problem has not improved yet.
Opening files is slow but editing them is impossible.
I'm still waiting after 6 min that the file loads in the web editing
interface.
It used to work flawlessly  last time I used it so please whatever
was changed revert it.
Still after 8.21 mins no file loaded.

Ciao,
Tito

I wasn't exaggerating, what is life without a little excitement occasionally.
A rookie sysadmin mistake is to take backups but never ever do a test restore 
to ensure they are OK.
Using this command may provide you with that opportunity to perform a real 
restore from backup :)

Thanks Bob, I will ensure I use ./* in future :)

I disagree with that though...it should be "You make your own bad fortune"

I have seen a few pranks in my time but never came across that one.
The most annoying of which was on one particular academic system which would 
not let you complete your login until you had read all your new mail.
Some bright spark emailed everybody (including the sysadmin so he could not 
purge mail) a copy of the system spellchecker dictionary.

I doubt the following will ever be topped, also a fashion statement, if you 
know different please post to this new thread.

Look at the delivery headers?

You sent this *from* o...@gonwanda.net so the fact that it arrived on the list 
and got accepted suggests that this is the address you are subscribed from.

That sounds like the sort of reason for which I would *join* a list - so that 
I can ask some questions or get some help with whatever went wrong... :)
