Floating point exception

10 Oct '07

Following upgrade to the latest Debian package (0.59-1) my Openguide is failing. Running it directly, I get the not terribly helpful: simon@stout:/etc/openguides/default$ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/openguides/wiki.cgi Floating point exception I've tried fiddling with the epsilloid setting, without success.

Search broken
by IvorW 21 May '07

21 May '07

The search script is failing every time on OGL. I can't get any clues as I don't have access to the server logs. Maybe the Plucene index needs to be rebuilt.

Wikimedia Commons Tube data
by Kake L Pugh 07 Apr '07

07 Apr '07

I posted on the london.pm mailing list last night about a script I'd used to suck the Tube station zones out of the Wikimedia Commons Tube data and add them to the Randomness Guide to London. I thought maybe OGL might be interested in this too, so I'm attaching the script to this email. The datafile is at http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/London_Underground_geographic_maps/CSV Obviously the script will need a bit of tweaking, but if you want it, here it is. It should also be easy enough to modify it to add location and line data as well (that's in the datafile too, but I already had that data so didn't bother). I probably don't need to mention that it would be wise to run the script against a test guide before running it against the live instance. Let me know if anything in the script is overly confusing; I didn't really comment it much because it was a one-off. Kake

Borough market: wholesaler tasting session
by IvorW 16 Feb '07

16 Feb '07

Just came across this on their website. http://www.boroughmarket.org.uk/index.php?module=whats_on:44 This could be quite fun, and useful for OpenGuides PR. I'm sure we can call ourselves "press" - it's worth a try. I'm posting this to the list in case there's anyone not gainfully employed who'd like to go, ideally one of our regular contributors. If you do get a response, please let the list know. Ivor.

Fwd: List change-over complete (I hope!)

Just got this from Paul via Mailman, although it didn't show up in the moderation queue on the site... anyway, here it is. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: "Paul Makepeace" <paulm(a)paulm.com> To: openguides-dev(a)lists.openguides.org, openguides-london(a)lists.openguides.org Date: Mon, 16 Oct 2006 20:29:41 +0100 Subject: List change-over complete (I hope!) Hi folks, OG's move from @openguides.org to @lists.openguides.org I think is basically complete at this point. Thanks to Dom for handling the NS and tolerating my abuse of CNAMEs.

A few notes: * The old archives at http://openguides.org/mail/yadda now perform a redirect to http://lists.openguides.org/mail/yadda One minor detail about this is that the list archive weblogs are on a different machine. If you need these logs please liaise with Earle and he & I can figure something out there. Hopefully you won't want these as all the lists on that machine pile into a single apache log at present. I recommend http://www.google.com/analytics/ if you want to track web access.</koolaid> * For list admins: The mailman interface is also at http://lists.openguides.org/ . The old /mm/admin/<cmd>/<list-name> has given way to the mailman default install /cgi-bin/mailman/<cmd>/<list-name> * There are a couple of courtesy forwards from the old <list-name>@openguides.org to the new addresses altho ideally please "bookmark" and use the newer one directly * sa-exim shouldn't be revealing RCPTs any longer (please check just to be sure). The new list server isn't actually using spamassassin+sa-exim so I'd be particularly surprised if that issue persisted :-) * If spam gets to be a problem again chat with Earle Any questions drop Earle or me a line.

List mail addresses will be changing slightly
by Earle Martin 16 Oct '06

16 Oct '06

Hi all, Due to some things being rehomed from one machine to another, the list mail addresses will be changing shortly from <list-name>@openguides.org to <list-name>@lists.openguides.org. You won't need to subscribe, but may need to update your address books and/or mail filters. I'll send another mail through when the move is done (probably within a day or so). Cheers, Earle. -- Earle Martin http://downlode.org/ http://purl.org/net/earlemartin/
