[freenet-support] inbuilt freenet type design
Hey, I have been working on a project called Bittess, that you might be interested in as we seem to have similar goals. The project uses the latest webRTC to set up a peer to peer website within a regular browser without any other software. There are some limitations but we managed to get a prototype up and running at bittess.com. You can view the code and more info on how it works over at our github site https://github.com/BitTess/BitTess. Good luck with your endeavour.

Re: [freenet-support] Website bug: can't use menus on mobile Firefox
I'm not exactly a web development expert :-) Here's one idea if you have the time: on the About and every other page you can get to from the About menu, show all the places under the About menu somewhere, for example on a side panel to the left. I sort of expected to be able to click News from the About page because it was under that menu, so I've probably seen websites in the past that follow this rule.

Re: [freenet-support] Corrupt node.crypt and persistant-temp
Date: Mon, 14 Oct 2013 08:19:03 -0400 From: denn...@dennisn.dyndns.org To: support@freenetproject.org Do you hibernate your machine, or might your hard drive be failing and corrupting files? It's also possible that it's a bug in Freenet or the database it uses, though I haven't known such problems to happen every single shutdown. What operating system are you using? If you are able to get a list of steps to reproduce the problem it will become practical to fix the root cause. I'm pretty confident that there are some pretty serious bugs in the db4o code. It seems to happen to everyone, at some point. Happened to me a few days ago with a large download. Or perhaps with too many downloads in the queue. Hopefully the reproduceability in this case will help. ___ Interesting because it had been fine up until the point where I added a lot of downloads, about 40GB, 102 files. So it's been a struggle getting through them with the corruption happening so that seems to be a main trigger for it on my end. I've put logging on to debug so hopefully it catches something. ___ Support mailing list Support@freenetproject.org http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:support-requ...@freenetproject.org?subject=unsubscribe
[freenet-support] Corrupt node.crypt and persistant-temp
I'm not sure what I've done wrong but I so often find myself with a message along the lines of the node.db40.crypt and persistant-temp-*** can't be started(I think). The only way I seem to be able to fix it is to copy a backup copy of freenet (or reinstall of course) Thing is it happens every few days at times, like right now.. freenet is happily working though and it doesn't happen until I shutdown for whatever reason which seems to go fine until I try and start it back up. Stupidly I overwrote the log file, the only message that was different and at the time it happened this time was something along the lines of cleaning chk(something) store... this was the first time the node and pers-temp message happened while freenet was actually running. This has been happing for a long time so many versions, and a lot of clean OS installs of my PC etc.. any clues as to what is going on on my pc to cause this or how I can minimize it happening ? My poc is even running new hardware now but it still happens a lot. ___ Support mailing list Support@freenetproject.org http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:support-requ...@freenetproject.org?subject=unsubscribe
[freenet-support] difficulty with installing/using
Hi, I havent installed freenet just yet, but its sounds very complicated for someone who hasnt installed something like that before. (/Ive read through the documentation it doesnt sound straight forward at all). Why does it need to be that complicated? You should be able to just install it and be ready to go surely? It isnt really clear which of these * Graphical install * Headless install * Enabling a mirror copy of a Freenet installationthat Im supposed to go with. I have windows 7 home premium 64bit and I also have kaspersky 2011 to complicate it even more. Another question I wanted to ask, can I used annonymizer program with freenet? Is their step by step instructions for installing and using freenet to my personal requirements anywhere on the net which is more simpler than your documentation help? many thanks James___ Support mailing list Support@freenetproject.org http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:support-requ...@freenetproject.org?subject=unsubscribe

[freenet-support] RE: Suddenly unable to connect to network
I upgraded to version 5046 yesterday, and now I always get the error message: "Couldn't connect to the network. Are you sure you have configured Freenet correctly? Also make sure that you are connected to the internet." I have not changed anything in my configuration, and I am connected to the internet. Is the network down, or could this be a bug in 5046? For those of you who have tried reseeding, updating, and everything else and just want the darn thing to work, your best bet is to go to the unstable branch. Take the following steps to do so: 1) Shut down Freenet completely 2) Go to http://freenetproject.org/snapshots/ 3) Download freenet-unstable-latest.jar 4) Downloadunstable.ref 5) Rename freenet-unstable-latest.jar to freenet.jar 6) Rename unstable.ref to seednodes.ref 7) Copy both of the renamed files into your Freenet folder, overwriting the existing files 8) Run Freenet, give it a few hours to reintegrate Caveat Warning for Windows users- You can't use the webinstaller to update unstable (at least last I checked). If you use the webinstaller, it will send you right back to the stable branch. To update, you'll have to run through the steps I've outlined here once again, though you probably will not need to get the .ref file again. ___ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://dodo.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support

Re: [freenet-support] Errors and stange cache behavior...
Sadly it is. We don't know why. But maybe something to do with threading. Ok, good to know. If the cache is less than 90% full, it should not forget stuff. However, were these requests for freesites? Were they around 0:00 GMT? A lot of freesites are 'date based redirect', which means they get forgotten at midnight - a new edition must be published each day. Now that I think about it, they could be. Thanks for the sanity check. -- James S.

Neither is documentation, or support, or even helping those of us who have tried to help. Wow! You paid them to write documentation and give you support? Where do I sign up? They could probably use more money! I can understand that you're frustrated. Freenet is novel and promising and just might actually have a chance at changing parts of the world for a better place (if just for revolutionaries). I'm with you on that. I really am! Getting snitty won't make developers work harder/faster/better. All that could possibly do is convince them that their effort isn't appreciated and they should instead spend their free time saving up for a nice vacation in Hawaii. In fact, the Linux kernel recently lost one of the IDE developers because he got fed up with constant complaints of his work and personal insults. I think I can easily understand that. Why spend hundreds or thousands of hours developing software just to be nice for people that are spitting on you? From the way that I've seen some people acting lately, I'm frankly shocked people write large software projects at all. I keep reading that bandwith is needed. Recently I asked for how I could help and mentioned I could have a machine up for most of the day. Once I could figure how to get this running on FreeBSD I could have it running all day.. Got no answers. Though I'm sure this looks different from your perspective but I think most people are happier that the freenet developers are spending their time developing rather than get another nonfunction node running. I tried to give you one idea of how to help (namely don't load them down with support requests while freenet is still alpha). Be patient until they get to close to the 1.0 release and offer to write documentation! After all, I do think that most of the freenet developers live in linuxland, which is a place where developers don't write documentation until 1.0, which is the first user level release. Are things different in the freebsd world? My solution was to give up on freenet for about a year and stay out of the developers way until freenet is ready for end users such as you and I. Who knows... maybe some day they will get the datastore bugs fixed, the efficiency fixed and even have time to look at getting freenet to work well under kaffe. I think if they could spend a one time effor and improve the docs, perhaps others could help with the development and with all other aspects. Last I heard freenet development was running at such a high pace that if they wrote documents for you today they would be badly out of date for a week. Maybe if you offered to write the documenation, they would probably be more than happy for you to check out the cvs on a nightly basis and keep the documentation up to date on by asking them how the days worth of changes impact the documentation. However, let's take your point for granted and assume that they need all the developers they can get. How useful would a developer be that can't manage to make the software even run? I'm not even a serious developer and *I* can get it to run, though not reliably. But let's assume you're a crack coder. What are you personally going to do with the other 49 people that aren't crack coders asking for support merely because they got the daemon running with the extra documentation but still long before freenet was ready for end users? Be patient Francisco. If you really can't wait, give gnunet a look. They're working on a very interested p2p project that is based on a credit system and isn't attempting to be the end-all-be-all of anonymous information transfer. Even better, Christian is documenting GNUnet very well, something which I think would suit you. Freenet will still be here when you get back.

Re: [freenet-support] Too slow
In lists.freenet.support, you wrote: I am using freenet build#495. I have had this same problem with Freenet since the beginning, it is _so_ slow. When I go to e.g. The Freedom Engine it takes 5-10 minutes for the page to load completely. I think the freenet developer's philosophy is that speed isn't really a priority if there's nothing to transport because of crashed servers and corrupt caches. After all, what good would a Ferrari be if every time you drive it for more than a couple hours it broke down? For an example, freenet under kaffe has shown a tendancy on some of my machines to not just crash my freenet node, but take the entire system with it (implying to me that there is a loop somewhere that rapidly allocates massive amounts of ram that chokes the kernel into a panic). Even if I were willing to put up with freenet taking down the machine every couple weeks, during those times the machine is down the effective speed of freenet from my perspective is 0 bytes/sec. This is a scary thought because the machine I'm speaking of is a 1.4 Athlon with 1.5 gigs of memory and 200 gigs of drive space. My solution was to give up on freenet for about a year and stay out of the developers way until freenet is ready for end users such as you and I. Who knows... maybe some day they will get the datastore bugs fixed, the efficiency fixed and even have time to look at getting freenet to work well under kaffe. Who knows. A year from now they may decide to move to proprietary languages such as java2, at which point I would stop waiting for freenet and start looking much closer at things like gnunet. Does that mean that freenet is worthless? Of course not. It just means thier gift isn't intended for me; its intended for those that care about freedom of speech and don't care quite so much about freedom of software. I see a lot of issues debated on this support forum, but seldom do I see the speed of Freenet discussed. Is this because I am the only one with this problem or is the speed of Freenet an accepted fact that nobody is trying to fix. I see references to the datasource corruption bug or something similiar, but I keep thinking; why discuss these bugs at all when the Freenet is so slow that it's unusable. No, you aren't the only one seeing that problem, and a big part of it is caused by datastore corruption bugs and that as people increase cache size, the server becomes more unreliable. Once they fix up the reliability bugs, freenet servers will be able to have larger caches and run for much longer periods of time, which should dramatically increase the likelyhood that your server will be able to find any given thing at a closer node, thereby increasing your effective latency. This may of course be only my problem, but it's annoying the hell out of me. Heh. You've got it better than some. You really have two choices on this one. Either start participating in development, or be patient while others develop. To yell at people that their free gift to you doesn't work well enough to suit your purposes is tacky at best. Internet connection: ADSL 1024/512 kbit/s That should be plenty, but heres some questions that you could answer which would (or could) impact freenet performance: Have you set bandwidth limits in freenet.conf? Is your datastore large enough to hold a significant amount of data? Have you changed freenet.conf options relating to how many nodes can start? Have you let your node run for a few days? Did you request popular files such as GPL.txt so that other nodes would hear about you? Did you tell freenet to act as a transient node instead of as a permanant node? -- GnuPG fingerprint AAE4 8C76 58DA 5902 761D 247A 8A55 DA73 0635 7400 James Blackwell -- Director http://www.linuxguru.net ___ support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hawk.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support

RE: [freenet-support] SLOW!!! Why two nodes does not learn each other
Today, I put two nodes on two computers on the same subnet. I inserted a dozen files on one computer (with htl=50) physical proximity doesn't equal network proximity. nodes specialise based on key similarity. if you really want two nodes to talk to each other, create a file called nodes.config (in your freenet directory) that has a tcp/xx.xx.xx.xx entry for each node you really want to talk to (each should be on a new line). i think i remember someone talking about how that doesn't even guarantee that the nodes will talk with each other unless you've got one machine with informRead set to 'yes' and one set to 'no' and the one set to 'no' has the nodes.config file pointing to the one set to 'yes'. or something like that. ___ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.freenetproject.org/mailman/listinfo/support
