- 00:00:16 [rbm]
- Want the stable?
- 00:00:17 [davb]
- is bugtracker only in the development branch?
- 00:00:23 [rbm]
- * rbm checks
- 00:00:54 [davb]
- anyway this is just to keep track of our work on the other openacs 4 we will set up for the actual site right?
- 00:01:22 [rbm]
- yes
- 00:01:31 [rbm]
- I hope that whatever we setup will become openacs.org
- 00:01:38 [davb]
- oh ok.
- 00:01:51 [rbm]
- isn't that what you had in mind too?
- 00:02:15 [davb]
- i thought it might be better to have the bugtracker in a seperate installation.
- 00:02:22 [davb]
- but if it works like that its no problem.
- 00:02:29 [rbm]
- Looks like bugtracker is just on the devel branch
- 00:02:33 [davb]
- ok.
- 00:02:51 [rbm]
- So two instances of OACS 4? One stable and one devel?
- 00:02:54 [davb]
- i need a way to merge the code musea worked on with the new code.
- 00:03:35 [rbm]
- Did musea change anything on th core?
- 00:03:45 [davb]
- rbm: no, but their copy is really old.
- 00:03:57 [rbm]
- Where's that URL you pasted the other day, about CVS?
- 00:04:00 [rbm]
- Did chump get it?
- 00:04:02 [rbm]
- paje: chump?
- 00:04:02 [paje]
- chump is a bot that keeps track of URLS, the logs can be found at http://www.thedesignexperience.org/openacs/ircblog/
- 00:04:15 [davb]
- yes i think so. it was at www.pimds.com
- 00:09:43 [sash]
- sash (~MIA@213-48-145-16.cro.cvx.blueyonder.co.uk) has joined #openacs
- 00:09:51 [davb]
- rbm: yes
- 00:09:56 [rbm]
- davb: k
- 00:10:22 [sash]
- jim, davb: Doh, I'm really sorry. I made a mistake in the cmd for setting up interMedia
- 00:11:13 [rbm]
- the openacs.org is already running 2 OpenACS instances... I wonder how well it'll handle 2 more
- 00:11:34 [sash]
- It should be mkdir -p /ora8/$interMedia_partition_name/app/oracle/oradata/ora8/
- 00:11:42 [rbm]
- We should be okay since we should be having little traffic
- 00:12:57 [davb]
- if its a problem, we can put the bugtracker on musea's server :)
- 00:13:58 [jim]
- I'm presently running 3: an oracle instance and two pg ones... all -very- idle
- 00:14:11 [jim]
- hi sash
- 00:14:18 [jim]
- thanks, too
- 00:14:44 [jim]
- now... what's an intermedia partition?
- 00:14:45 [jim]
- :)
- 00:14:50 [sash]
- jim: Apologies *grovel* *grovel*
- 00:14:58 [rbm]
- davb: Do you want me to put all packages in CVS? Or should we remove some?
- 00:15:04 [jim]
- sash: it's -not- your fault
- 00:15:16 [davb]
- rbm: good question.
- 00:15:17 [davb]
- :)
- 00:15:26 [sash]
- Well, it is, since I gave an incorrect answer.
- 00:15:56 [jim]
- but I didn't ask (until after you answered, anyway)
- 00:16:25 [jim]
- also, if I make this dir, will it happily come up?
- 00:16:50 [davb]
- rbm: i think we can just install the packages we want to use.
- 00:17:21 [sash]
- jim: You should see the question I was asked by a newbie: what is oracle used for?
- 00:17:36 [rbm]
- davb: I'm putting everything on cvs
- 00:17:57 [jim]
- sash: did you reply, "ask the oracle!"? :)
- 00:18:13 [sash]
- jim: Yes. You won't get 01119 and 27040 creation errors.
- 00:18:23 [davb]
- rbm: ok, that works.
- 00:18:55 [jim]
- sash: during what part? creating the initial database? or loading the data model?
- 00:18:58 [sash]
- jim: Drat, didn't think of that. I was flummoxed by the newbie's cluelessness.
- 00:19:15 [sash]
- jim: Before creating the DB.
- 00:19:38 [jim]
- oof...
- 00:20:29 [sash]
- jim: With Oracle's record, dare I experiment w/ 9i?
- 00:20:54 [sash]
- Not to mention 3 CDs worth of stuff to break.
- 00:21:27 [jim]
- well, I understand there are serious hinderances to use of 9i by *ACSs...
- 00:22:14 [sash]
- Like?
- 00:22:32 [jim]
- I think acs would need major rewriting... can't use the names "new" or "delete"
- 00:22:37 [davb]
- ybos i think made some changes.
- 00:22:39 [jim]
- or something
- 00:22:40 [paje]
- i think something is broken in static-pages :)
- 00:22:41 [davb]
- to their version.
- 00:22:54 [davb]
- rbm: add that to the list. change all delete's to del
- 00:23:02 [davb]
- paje: botsnack
- 00:23:02 [paje]
- thanks davb :)
- 00:23:17 [jim]
- * jim gives paje a static charge!
- 00:26:00 [sash]
- jim: W/ my non-LSE patched 2.4.18 kernel, Oracle eats up all my 2.25GB of memory in DB creation and does a little swapping too. With the patches, it was using ~1.6GB.
- 00:26:02 [rbm]
- davb: You're keeying this list or should I?
- 00:28:17 [davb]
- rbm: i started one.
- 00:28:36 [rbm]
- Argh. the openacs.org only has vi, no vim. How sick is that?
- 00:28:36 [davb]
- maybe we can setup an etp on there too. so everything is in one place.
- 00:28:43 [davb]
- or put that stuff in the bugtracker.
- 00:28:46 [rbm]
- davb: We can start anything :)
- 00:30:28 [sash]
- jim: I used 00_block-highmem-all-18b-3.patch, /bkl_rollup-2.4.18-1.patch (carrier4) & fast_walkA2-2.4.18.patch (not the carrier4 version)
- 00:32:07 [sash]
- jim: If you manage to get the siorl-v2.2417.patch working w/ those, I'd be grateful to you. You can also get a 10_rawio-vary-io-2.patch, which I don't use as I don't have dedicated RAW disks.
- 00:34:11 [jim]
- wow, I'm not much for getting kernel code to work that doesn't already...
- 00:34:26 [sash]
- My C is non-existent.
- 00:34:59 [sash]
- Otherwise you could look around the .rej files and get it to work TM.
- 00:35:42 [jim]
- well, I have some C experience... and some patch/diff exp... but no kernel-level stuff
- 00:36:56 [sash]
- I came across the main patches in reading I/O Performance HOWTO: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/IO-Perf-HOWTO/
- 00:37:12 [rbm]
- davb: do you want openssl?
- 00:37:43 [davb]
- rbm: me? do we need it for the openacs site? ie do you want to use it for admin pages?
- 00:38:28 [sash]
- jim: siorl will apply cleanly but you'll get an early exit due to errors in make bzImage.
- 00:38:40 [rbm]
- davb: Guess not eh?
- 00:38:47 [rbm]
- let me bring this up then we think about that
- 00:38:59 [davb]
- sure, we can add it later.
- 00:39:10 [jim]
- hmmm... I don't understand the build env well enough... it doesn't make good use of make
- 00:41:04 [rbm]
- WTH is supervise?
- 00:41:15 [rbm]
- is this another one of djb's utils?
- 00:41:24 [davb]
- rbm: supervise is the coolest way to control aolserver
- 00:41:26 [davb]
- and yes.
- 00:41:31 [davb]
- paje supervise?
- 00:41:31 [paje]
- somebody said supervise was the coolest way to control aolserver
- 00:41:37 [davb]
- paje: botsnack
- 00:41:37 [paje]
- thanks davb :)
- 00:41:52 [rbm]
- Boy, it sure looks like Ben is totally sold out on djb. Everything on this machine uses djb tools
- 00:41:59 [davb]
- rbm: it works!
- 00:42:38 [rbm]
- He puts his tools on the most awkward of paths.
- 00:42:41 [rbm]
- It's totally weird.
- 00:42:52 [davb]
- rbm: i will agree with that one.
- 00:43:32 [davb]
- you will need a run script for the aolservers. and we probably need permission to supervise those.
- 00:44:00 [rbm]
- permission from whom?
- 00:44:22 [rbm]
- Lars says to "cd /service". We don't have that directory
- 00:44:37 [davb]
- oh.
- 00:44:54 [rbm]
- Where is the default for supervise's /service directory?
- 00:44:54 [davb]
- is openacs.org using that to control aolserver, or lars?
- 00:45:03 [rbm]
- openacs.org seems to be using it too
- 00:45:05 [davb]
- its in /service
- 00:45:13 [davb]
- but you could put it anywhere.
- 00:45:14 [rbm]
- root 14105 0.0 0.0 1336 52 ? S Jan31 0:00 supervise nrpep
- 00:45:27 [davb]
- it should be svscan i think.
- 00:45:39 [rbm]
- we have supervise, tcpserver, qmail, the whole shpill
- 00:45:49 [rbm]
- root 14103 0.0 0.0 1372 92 ? S Jan31 0:00 svscan /var/netsaint/service
- 00:46:02 [davb]
- ah, you found it.
- 00:46:37 [rbm]
- Why? What's the big deal?
- 00:46:46 [davb]
- no idea :)
- 00:47:08 [davb]
- i see. svscan runs a supervise for every process it is controlling.
- 00:47:09 [rbm]
- I guess I'm revealing a little more than I should about the machine
- 00:47:14 [sash]
- s/shpill/spiel?
- 00:47:20 [rbm]
- sash: probably :)
- 00:48:22 [rbm]
- davb: You have to tell me what to do with this about this djb weirdness
- 00:48:28 [davb]
- no problem.
- 00:48:49 [davb]
- first you need to find out where they stash the run scripts. ls -l the service directory.
- 00:49:47 [rbm]
- didn't you say it was in the directory I pointed out above?
- 00:49:57 [rbm]
- (BTW, this is why I *hate* logged channels)
- 00:50:05 [davb]
- oacs-logger: off
- 00:50:08 [rbm]
- Why do we log this anyway? We should get rid of the logging bot
- 00:50:11 [davb]
- oacs-logger: stop
- 00:50:38 [davb]
- rbm: i like the log because i just type stuff into the channel that I might want to retrieve later.
- 00:50:45 [davb]
- oacs-logger: cut it out
- 00:50:48 [davb]
- darm
- 00:50:54 [rbm]
- oacs-logger: silence
- 00:50:58 [davb]
- i can't even spell damn
- 00:51:06 [rbm]
- davb: Keep your own darn logs then.
- 00:51:08 [davb]
- oacs-logger, off
- 12:07:49 [davb]
- oacs-logger on
- 12:07:49 [davb]
- oacs-logger: on
- 12:07:49 [davb]
- argh
- 12:07:49 [davb]
- oacs-logger go ahead
- 12:07:49 [davb]
- oacs-logger: on
- 12:07:49 [davb]
- argh
- 12:07:49 [davb]
- oh well.
- 12:08:11 [davb]
- wow, he takes forever to respond.
- 12:08:32 [davb]
- I am going to post some more general openacs toolkit improvement ideas here in a few minutes.
- 12:08:40 [davb]
- i am just letting my brain warm up
- 12:20:48 [talli]
- is rbm around?
- 12:29:42 [PascalS]
- PascalS (~pascal@213.211.144.207) has joined #openacs
- 12:31:09 [PascalS]
- Hiya
- 12:31:32 [talli]
- hey PascalS!
- 12:31:37 [PascalS]
- Hi Talli
- 12:31:38 [davb]
- hi PascalS
- 12:31:41 [davb]
- hu talli
- 12:31:46 [talli]
- yo davb
- 12:31:46 [PascalS]
- hu?
- 12:31:50 [PascalS]
- :)
- 12:32:05 [talli]
- PascalS: where are you in the world?
- 12:32:09 [PascalS]
- Do any of you have experience with wikis?
- 12:32:15 [PascalS]
- .nl
- 12:32:19 [davb]
- don't say wiki to talli!
- 12:32:20 [PascalS]
- zeist.utrecht.nl
- 12:32:24 [PascalS]
- * PascalS ducks
- 12:32:45 [talli]
- the netherlands aren't too bad
- 12:32:51 [talli]
- if you said germany i would be pissed
- 12:33:00 [talli]
- davb: i don't mind wikis
- 12:33:10 [davb]
- i know :)
- 12:33:33 [PascalS]
- Why, they beat you in the footbal (guessing here, I would not know)
- 12:33:35 [davb]
- i have some cool ideas for openacs that i can't believe someone hasn't already done.
- 12:33:48 [PascalS]
- davb: in the wiki context?
- 12:34:03 [davb]
- PascalS: not necessarily, but it would be useful for that too.
- 12:34:17 [davb]
- basically it involves using acs-rels to links stuff together.
- 12:34:34 [davb]
- ie. if you want to link an image to a content page, use an attached-image relationship
- 12:34:37 [talli]
- PascalS: yeah, game just ended 1-0
- 12:34:42 [talli]
- although i slept through it
- 12:34:46 [davb]
- if you want to have a related link section, use the same thing.
- 12:34:48 [talli]
- i caught the last 5 minutes and it was exciting
- 12:35:15 [davb]
- it would be hany for knowledge managemetn kind of stuff, plus most sites have a "related items" section.
- 12:35:19 [PascalS]
- talli: sorry, apart from the dutch not playing, I could not care less about footbal
- 12:35:29 [talli]
- haha
- 12:35:37 [talli]
- what happened? how did you guys not make it?
- 12:36:00 [davb]
- i was thinking of some sort of acs-service-contract to hook things into an interface to make these relationships.
- 12:36:06 [PascalS]
- talli: honestly, I haven't the foggiest, like I said: I truly don't care.
- 12:36:35 [PascalS]
- davb: sounds useful,
- 12:36:48 [davb]
- i am thinking of a service contract that givin an item_id or revision_id, a package will give back a URL, teitle, and description of an item.
- 12:37:10 [davb]
- based on which pcakge owns the item depends on which service contract is run.
- 12:37:21 [davb]
- this seems kinds obvious :)
- 12:37:26 [talli]
- davb: you should check out the CMS that luke built for urbanparks.org
- 12:37:29 [davb]
- so I am surprised noone has done it yet.
- 12:37:47 [davb]
- talli: ok. i will look. is it on the same server as the other stuff?
- 12:37:59 [PascalS]
- probably because it's a fair amount of work without the right infrastructure available.
- 12:38:29 [talli]
- lemme give you access to teh staging server
- 12:38:36 [davb]
- talli: the idea is witht he service contract, you could build any cms you want, and take advantage of this. you would not need to know what type of other packages they were as long as they implement the service contract.
- 12:38:47 [talli]
- yes, that sounds great
- 12:38:57 [PascalS]
- I love the basic openness of wikis, but they're all a wee bit too simple or only run on filesystem/mysql
- 12:39:09 [talli]
- the thing iwth this CMS is that you may want to see how he implemented the "topics" functionality
- 12:39:27 [talli]
- so that one article is shared across various content sections
- 12:39:28 [davb]
- I am thinkng of a user interface where you click "Create Relationship" for a page, and then browse to the second item, and click the relationship button again. it remembers the first item_id, and gets the second one, and makes the relationship.
- 12:39:35 [davb]
- talli: that sounds cool.
- 12:40:08 [davb]
- neophytos has some good ideas about categories, that could use acs-rels so that each package can have its own category tree mapped to a big site-wide tree.
- 12:40:24 [davb]
- anyway, i have to do some work, i'll be back around lunch time
- 12:41:04 [talli]
- davb: real quick, login to http://upo.museatech.net
- 12:41:07 [davb]
- the cool part is instead of creating a special interface on photo-album or something to add photos, you just use the relationships and just program the template to grab the related photos and display them with the contente page
- 12:41:17 [davb]
- ok
- 12:41:19 [talli]
- so i can give you admin priviliges and you can look at the system
- 12:41:27 [PascalS]
- davb: that all sounds like something I want.
- 12:41:34 [talli]
- just for ideas
- 12:41:40 [davb]
- cool.
- 12:41:50 [talli]
- also, davb, have you written up any of these ideas?
- 12:41:52 [PascalS]
- It would make managing a personal webspace a whole lot simpler.
- 12:41:57 [talli]
- i'm sure luke would be interested in speaking with you
- 12:41:59 [talli]
- about them
- 12:42:03 [davb]
- talli: i just did :)
- 12:42:12 [talli]
- cut and paste, cut and paste...
- 12:42:54 [davb]
- right, that is why i turned on the logger. i will write more later, i just wanted to capture the thought before i forgot.
- 12:43:02 [davb]
- i need a recorder or something in the car
- 12:43:12 [PascalS]
- do I see correctly that 4.5.0 is out?
- 12:43:15 [davb]
- ok i signed up, the usual email adress.
- 12:43:21 [davb]
- pascals, yes, i guess.
- 12:43:27 [talli]
- how do i change the time of my linux box?
- 12:43:33 [talli]
- it's two hours+ off
- 12:43:33 [davb]
- talli: is it offical we are waiting for the web site for the announcement?
- 12:43:40 [davb]
- ok, bbiab
- 12:43:41 [PascalS]
- hwclock
- 12:43:48 [talli]
- davb: ?
- 12:43:53 [PascalS]
- talli: just a sec.
- 12:43:58 [davb]
- talli: what?
- 12:44:12 [talli]
- davb: i didn't understand the question
- 12:44:23 [PascalS]
- talli: /usr/bin/rdate -s ntp.xs4all.nl &>/dev/null &
- 12:44:39 [davb]
- talli: i was wondering if you knew why noone announces that 4.5 is released more or less.
- 12:44:53 [PascalS]
- from a startup script, for example from your network connect script.
- 12:44:54 [davb]
- because we had discusssed before waiting for the web site.
- 12:45:49 [talli]
- oh, i think it's just because don's been overwhelmed by GP
- 12:45:54 [talli]
- they are launching this week
- 12:46:04 [talli]
- and they are probably pulling 20 hr days in order to have it ready
- 12:46:20 [davb]
- ah, that too :)
- 12:47:51 [davb]
- ok, really going back to work now.
- 12:53:58 [PascalS]
- bye
- 12:54:10 [PascalS]
- PascalS has quit ("Client Exiting")
- 13:03:35 [davb]
- I also like don's idea to expand the default permissions to publish and edit

- [GlobalNotice] Hi all. We're in the middle of fundraising. You'll probably see a couple of global notices per day. Current status: we need about $11,877 more to reach our goal. http://lilo.sargasso.net .... there's more detail on WALLOPS if you want to see things happening, just +w your client. Thanks.

- We're doing OK, trying to figure out how to support 10 hits-per-second on a lousy little two-process Sun E250 box
- 14:07:15 [donb]
- We'll cache content and be OK
- 14:07:18 [talilee]
- uh, is that lousy?
- 14:07:41 [talilee]
- two-processor is lousy?
- 14:07:48 [donb]
- Sun E250s are old boxes, a lot slower than (say) a dual-Athlon with DDR, say about twice as slow
- 14:07:57 [talilee]
- whoa
- 14:08:10 [talilee]
- is that what they have or is that what the colo joint is giving them?
- 14:08:22 [donb]
- but that's what the datacenter has contracted for with the German Greenpeace folks, who are in charge of server facilities
- 14:08:31 [talilee]
- ugh
- 14:08:44 [donb]
- colo joint it makes some sense since Oracle supports Sun much better than Linux
- 14:08:54 [talilee]
- for now at least
- 14:09:22 [talilee]
- larry's made it priority number one to get oracle top notch on linux
- 14:09:28 [donb]
- I think they've slumped off, to be honest. now that the dot bombed there's not nearly the market for low-end Oracle servers that they imagined they'd tap into
- 14:09:36 [talilee]
- of course, priority 0 is fleecing the public utilities of the world
- 14:09:46 [donb]
- Yeah, larry sez doesn't mean oracle duz
- 14:11:55 [donb]
- you are missing a nice social, you twit. Malte Sussedorf, Tilmann Singer, Ben Koot, some italians and other germans ... Lars ... all the cool people
- 14:12:06 [talilee]
- tell me abotu it
- 14:12:10 [talilee]
- i'm not happy that i can't make it
- 14:12:26 [talilee]
- but it's 2K for a ticket now, unless there's a way to get cheaper tickets somewhere
- 14:12:26 [donb]
- that's a double-negative
- 14:12:37 [donb]
- Try priceline or the like!
- 14:12:43 [talilee]
- good idea
- 14:12:45 [talilee]
- i'll give it a shot
- 14:13:15 [donb]
- You could also try someplace like Brussels which is just a two-three hour train ride away and might be a lot cheaper since A'dam's such a tourist destination
- 14:13:20 [donb]
- Of course the train costs money too
- 14:13:27 [talilee]
- i'll check it out
- 14:13:39 [talilee]
- but i would prefer it to be a one day, one hangover kind of trip
- 14:13:39 [donb]
- Anyway ... didn't really explore furfly hosting it because it makes sense to host it in Europe given the Eurocentric nature of GP
- 14:13:46 [talilee]
- ah, ok
- 14:14:05 [donb]
- So what's up with this NGO/Open Source conference that might happen in September?
- 14:15:27 [talilee]
- uhm...
- 14:15:31 [talilee]
- kinda dropped the ball on that
- 14:15:39 [talilee]
- i will need to pick it up again with the RH guys
- 14:15:52 [donb]
- yeah you need to do this
- 14:16:00 [talilee]
- been busy with other shit and spending massive amounts of work on something that's not immediately bringing money in is a toughie
- 14:17:22 [talilee]
- when would you like to announce the linux world stuff
- 14:17:23 [talilee]
- ?
- 14:18:08 [donb]
- Anytime you want
- 14:18:11 [talilee]
- ok
- 14:18:29 [talilee]
- perhaps you should announce it and say i will follow up?
- 14:19:01 [talilee]
- should we establish rules for participation beforehand or ask the community for input?
- 14:21:07 [talilee]
- actually, i can announce it
- 14:21:34 [talilee]
- and i'll suggest a framework for rules, and then ask for community input
- 14:22:03 [bduell]
- bduell (~bduell@gowron.nca.asu.edu) has joined #openacs
- 14:26:42 [donb]

- 14:26:59 [talilee]
- ok, talk to you alter
- 14:36:02 [talilee]
- btw, don, when you get back...
- 14:36:38 [talilee]
- it would be really nice if we could use the event manager for the linux world event since davb and rbm will be getting the new site ready
- 14:36:52 [talilee]
- does there happen to be an ETA on that tool?
- 14:39:07 [donb]
- I don't think the Sloan event package will be of much use for such things it is very specialized
- 14:39:20 [talilee]
- hmm... bummer
- 14:39:21 [talilee]
- ok
- 14:39:41 [talilee]
- ybos said they were building one
- 14:39:57 [talilee]
- but i don't know what state it would be in the oacs, e.g. porting it to PG

- 15:04:57 [davb]
- i'll keep that in mind.
- 15:05:15 [donb]
- I had to rewrite all your code! (not really, I just util_memoized the keyword query :)
- 15:05:29 [donb]
- cache cache cache oh fun!
- 15:05:55 [donb]
- cache a bit here cache a bit there cache a bit cache a bit everywhere ...
- 15:05:59 [davb]
- i though that might be necessary.
- 15:06:04 [davb]

- ok, i'm definitely going to try and make it out
- 15:09:33 [davb]
- brb
- 15:12:12 [donb]

- 15:12:36 [talilee]

- 15:18:47 [rbm]
- donb: have you visited the oacs 4.5 instance we put on the openacs.org box?
- 15:19:32 [donb]
- no, I haven't, but I'm excited about the fact that folks are starting to work on it
- 15:20:19 [rbm]
- Yeah.
- 15:21:01 [donb]
- where is it at?

- 15:23:05 [donb]
- Will you be rolling over Musea's earlier templating etc?
- 15:23:26 [rbm]
- donb: Yes. We'll be moving whatever musea has done on the old site
- 15:23:33 [donb]
- Cool ...
- 15:35:50 [davb]
- talli: that is exactly what I am talking about (the UPO site topics etc.) but totally generalized so any acs_object can be linked to another. the key is the API and service contracts that let packages make the links without knowing about the other packages.
- 15:36:21 [davb]
- brb, have to reinstall office...
- 15:40:08 [talilee]

- I'm having problems getting a query to work... it worked fine when it was inline, now trying to move it to a .xql resulted in it not working (and this is just copying the query verbatim, not trying the other database yet)
- 18:05:48 [jim]
- I keep getting "statement is not a query returning rows"
- 18:06:09 [jim]
- from db_0or1row within db_string
- 18:07:53 [jim]
- all specifics available... what do you need first? :)
- 18:08:49 [jim]
- (also: I added the .xql files to the package, and restarted the server many times... no go yet)
- 18:12:57 [rbm]
- jim: you could just have reloaded the package, and told the apm to watch the file
- 18:13:47 [jim]
- yes... but not even a restart is helping, so I can't tell if that would help
- 18:13:59 [rbm]
- have you tried running the query from sncp?
- 18:14:01 [rbm]
- err, nscp
- 18:14:11 [jim]
- nscp?
- 18:15:11 [jim]
- I dunno what that is, but the query worked before I moved it over to the .xql file
- 18:15:34 [jim]
- maybe I need detailed docs on the query dispatcher
- 18:15:51 [rbm]
- it's the control port. YOu telnet into it and then you can run AOLserver commands interactively
- 18:16:16 [jim]
- ahh, like an interactive shell
- 18:16:30 [cro]
- jim: did you take ac lose look at the server log when you restarted the server? There might be a syntax error in the XML code and it might show up when the server tries to parse the .xql file.

- good idea. Checking...
