Our new VM

2018-04-04 Thread Christofer Dutz 
Hi all,

I just wanted to inform you that we now have our own dedicated project VM which 
we can log-in to and which is also integrated into Jenklins so we can run our 
builds on that. We can even sudo on the machine and do root-stuff. With this I 
managed to avoid the problems we were having with the raw-socket tests, 
unfortunately just in order to run into the next problems … but I’m on it.

I still have to install some things our build needs to generate all the images 
in the site, but we’re looking good.

Another great thing is, that with we could even setup a VPN into a dedicated 
codecentric net where I could provide access to real PLCs for unit tests 
against the real thing (Even if I’m not a fan of having a project rely on stuff 
from a company … at least it’s better than not being able to automatically test 
against hardware at all).

I documented how to use and access the VM here:

So the "How is the project doing" is only interested in community related 
things and no technical stuff?

I have no problems with that.

Fortunately there a few folks around. :-)

I tend to agree with Niclas about the content. Maybe PLC4X should ask
for a blog and release some kind of newsletter for the things that may
raise awareness of the project but isn't directly relevant for the
board?
