[02:22] <michaelh1> Hi there.  launchpadlib loging against staging seems to be broken with a gateway timeout.  Any ideas?
[02:23] <wgrant> michaelh1: staging's down at the moment.
[02:23] <michaelh1> wgrant: ta.  Any ETA?
[02:24] <wgrant> michaelh1: Not really. Could you use qastaging? It's likely to be a little more reliable.
[02:25] <michaelh1> wgrant: I'm looking for a sandbox to write to.  Does qastaging throw away its data like staging?
[02:25] <wgrant> We generally manually erase it every couple of months.
[02:25] <wgrant> But it's not automated like staging.
[02:26] <michaelh1> OK.  But it's a different database to production and emails etc don't go out?
[02:26] <wgrant> Yup.
[02:27] <michaelh1> Ta.
[04:25] <cheako>  I don't know what email address my account used https://launchpad.net/~mmestnik Can some one please send me an email or tell me the address I need to use for the login screen?
[04:26] <wgrant> cheako: It's @nagios.com
[04:27] <cheako> wgrant: thx.
[04:28] <cheako> Can I get locked out for too many failed login attempts?
[04:28] <wgrant> Not easily.
[04:29] <cheako> Yay!  I'm in.
[04:29] <cheako> Thank you a mess.
[04:29] <wgrant> Excellent.
[07:09] <mrevell> Hello
[08:29] <wgrant> We're about to go down for a couple of minutes for a database upgrade.
[08:30] <wgrant> http://blog.launchpad.net/notifications/fast-down-time
[08:31] <mvo> hello
[08:34] <wgrant> And we're back.
[08:34] <mvo> wgrant: so apt-ftparchive is hanging when writing out the Translations-en ? do you have access to the machien ? did it actually write anything at all?
[08:34] <mvo> wgrant: any chance to get a strace of what its doing?
[08:34] <wgrant> mvo: It's reproducible locally. Can we take this to #launchpad-dev in a couple of minutes, once I've finished post-deployment checks?
[08:37] <mvo> wgrant: sure, thanks. I will fire up a lucid vm and see what I find there, good that its reproducable at least
[08:37] <wgrant> mvo: May be specific to our config, of course. I can give you that if it's not trivially reproducible.
[08:37] <wgrant> It works fine on oneiric.
[09:54] <odony> Hello everyone! Is there a help contact now?
[09:55] <wgrant> odony: I don't think there is a specific contact right now, but ask your question and someone will answer if they can.
[09:55] <odony> We have someone sending LinkedIn invitations as bug comments - could we remove these comments? Comment #7 on bug 715570
[09:55] <wgrant> odony: Could you file a question at https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+addquestion, with links to the offending comments?
[09:56] <wgrant> odony: If it continues to be a problem, we can suspend their account until they stop. But it seems to have stopped already.
[09:56] <odony> wgrant: sure, I'll do that, didn't know it was the proper procedure :) Thanks!
[09:58] <odony> wgrant: presumably this person asked LinkedIn to send an invitation to all his address book, I guess that would be a one-shot thing
[09:59] <wgrant> Let's hope.
[10:00] <odony> wgrant: here we go - question #170879  - is that correct?
[10:00] <odony> wgrant: https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+question/
[10:00] <odony> wgrant: err https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+question/170879  sorry
[10:01] <wgrant> odony: That's fine, thanks.
[10:01] <wgrant> odony: Someone should get to it in a few hours.
[10:01] <odony> wgrant: perfect, thanks for your help
[10:39] <gour> what is the procedure for removing projects/groups at launchpad?
[10:41] <wgrant> gour: Ask at https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+addquestion
[10:41] <gour> wgrant: thank you
[10:52] <adeuring> wgrant: I'll start a bit later, but gnerally, sey
[10:52] <adeuring> yes...
[11:52] <ams_cs> is the current lack of diffs on merge proposals a known problem ... or is it just happening to me?
[11:52] <ams_cs> example: https://code.launchpad.net/~ams-codesourcery/gcc-linaro/merge-from-fsf-20110906-4.5/+merge/74213
[11:53] <ams_cs> 6 days and still no diff ....
[14:04] <deryck> adeuring, I'll take IRC now.
[14:04] <adeuring> deryck: cool, thanks!
[14:30] <h00k> Greetings! I just got a 'Please Try Again' page in Launchpad, when trying to 'Contact all members' in the Ubuntu Wisconsin LoCo.
[14:30] <h00k> It told me to check back in if it happens.
[14:30] <h00k> But apparently it send the mail...twice now ;)
[14:31] <deryck> h00k, did you get an OOPS number in the email or web page?
[14:32] <h00k> deryck: no, just http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/687656/
[14:33] <deryck> h00k, can you try to reload again?  and what URL is this?
[14:35] <h00k> deryck: it was: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-us-wisconsin/+contactuser
[14:35] <h00k> deryck: if I reload it, it actually sends another copy of the email, so I don't want to annoy the LoCo members ;)
[14:35] <h00k> deryck: so, it's sending out the mail, it's just not...redirecting me or something
[14:35] <deryck> ah, ok.
[14:36] <deryck> I'm sure we have a bug for this.  Looking to see....
[14:36] <h00k> whatever it does after you 'post' the contact-submission form
[14:37] <deryck> We have bug 735992.  Hard to know for sure if it's the same or not without an OOPS.
[14:38] <deryck> h00k, thanks for letting us know, though.
[15:17] <h00k> deryck: I just went to report a bug (via apport), and the page that opened gave me two confirmation boxes the emails had sent, along with the box that said it's processing the new crash data
[15:17] <deryck> ok
[15:18] <pfefferz> howdy
[15:18] <pfefferz> I'm trying to assign a bug
[15:18] <pfefferz> and I launchpad can't locate the person
[15:20] <pfefferz> asac, pfefferz, andy-warmcat all can't be located
[15:21] <deryck> pfefferz, you mean the little picker widget that comes up to search for someone can't find the person, i.e. says no matches found?
[15:22] <pfefferz> yeah
[15:22] <pfefferz> I'm on this bug:
[15:22] <pfefferz> https://bugs.launchpad.net/linaro-android/+bug/845642
[15:22] <pfefferz> And I click Unassigned
[15:22] <pfefferz> and put in
[15:22] <TheEvilPhoenix> is LP lagging for any of you?
[15:22] <pfefferz> andy-warmcat
[15:23] <TheEvilPhoenix> i'm getting semi-horrid lag
[15:23] <pfefferz> and I see andy-warmcat
[15:23] <pfefferz> No items matched "andy-warmcat".
[15:23] <pfefferz> https://launchpad.net/~andy-warmcat
[15:23] <pfefferz> exists
[15:23] <pfefferz> same thing happens with asac
[15:23] <pfefferz> https://launchpad.net/~asac
[15:24] <nigelb> pfefferz: oh hai!
[15:24]  * nigelb looks as well.
[15:25] <nigelb> pfefferz: Works for me.
[15:25] <nigelb> oh wait.
[15:25] <nigelb> I see what you mean.
[15:27] <pfefferz> is this a known issue?
[15:32] <sinzui> pfefferz, nigelb, does the assign me link in the picker work?
[15:32] <nigelb> Let me check on qastaging.
[15:33] <pfefferz> yeah
[15:33] <nigelb> Oh. Picker on bug assigning is not finding names.
[15:33] <nigelb> I can reproduce on other projects (launchpad)
[15:34] <sinzui> nigelb, pfefferz the picker works for me. I can search for you or nigelb and find people. I think this is an issue where the feature flags enable operations for testers, but cripple other users
[15:35] <sinzui> pfefferz, nigelb, can either of you provide the bug and task you are trying to assign to
[15:35] <pfefferz> Trying to assign https://bugs.launchpad.net/linaro-android/+bug/845642
[15:35] <pfefferz> to Andy Green
[15:36] <sinzui> nigelb, consider that you cannot assign someone to a bug that affects a target your do not control
[15:36] <pfefferz> https://launchpad.net/~andy-warmcat
[15:36] <sinzui> nigelb, for example. I cannot assign anyone but my self and my teams to an ubuntu bug since I am not an Ubuntu owner/driver/supervisor
[15:37] <nigelb> let me try a bug in a project I maintain.
[15:38] <nigelb> sinzui: OH, ok.
[15:38] <nigelb> *now* I understand.
[15:38] <sinzui> nigelb, the old search let you find someone, then gave you an error saying they were invalid :)
[15:39] <nigelb> THis makes sense in so many ways, except for the odd fallouts :)
[15:40] <nigelb> sinzui: I wonder if we could give that as a feedback instead of the "not found".
[15:40] <nigelb> I couldn't find myself for a launchpad bug.
[15:40] <sinzui> pfefferz, you are not a in a linaro-android role. You can only assign yourself via the link, or your teams via search.
[15:41] <pfefferz> pfefferz, but I am, I thought
[15:41] <sinzui> The text "Select a team of which you are a member" could explain who can be searched
[15:41] <pfefferz> sure
[15:42] <nigelb> Hrm Zach is on the ~linaro-drivers who are drivers for linaro-android.
[15:42] <sinzui> pfefferz, https://launchpad.net/~andy-warmcat/+participation does not list either team listed on https://launchpad.net/linaro-android
[15:44] <pfefferz> sinzui, cool, thanks for the clarification
[15:44] <sinzui> pfefferz, I am reporting a bug. I I think we can fix the instructions to make it clear
[15:44] <pfefferz> cool
[15:45] <pfefferz> alternatively, you could just make it possible to assign bugs regardless of group membership
[15:45] <sinzui> pfefferz, No
[15:46] <sinzui> pfefferz, we will not entertain security/privacy/spam intrusions.
[15:46] <pfefferz> sure...
[15:47] <pfefferz> though you can subscribe someone else
[15:47] <pfefferz> so its not all that different
[16:21] <fbond> Hi.  I'm getting an error branching from LP using bzr:
[16:22] <fbond> bzr branch lp:ubuntu/maverick/xserver-xorg-video-nouveau xserver-xorg-video-nouveau.maverick
[16:22] <fbond> bzr: ERROR: Revision {james.westby@ubuntu.com-20100222213209-30nck2ilnyuk8u9v} not present in "Graph(StackedParentsProvider(<bzrlib.repository._LazyListJoin object at 0x9121e8c>))".
[16:22] <fbond> Any ideas?
[16:53] <deryck> fbond, I would guess the branch is in a bad state somehow.  I'm not completely sure, though.
[16:53]  * deryck looks around the room for bzr experts.....
[16:54] <deryck> or maybe james_w knows whats up with that branch?
[16:54] <james_w> I don't
[16:55] <deryck> ok, thanks
[16:55] <james_w> I think that's the second branch in that state though
[16:55] <james_w> fbond, would you file a bzr bug please?
[16:55] <deryck> yeah, that's probably the best way to handle it.
[16:55] <fbond> james_w: Sure thing.

[17:18] <deryck> abentley, hi.  irc tag. :)
[17:18] <abentley> deryck: sure thing
[18:57] <idnar> it looks like https://code.launchpad.net/~jjacobs/pymeta/generate-parser-stdin is "stuck", anyone know what's up with that?
[19:15] <lifeless> idnar: looks like abentley is on help contact and also is a great person to help with such an issue ;)
[19:16] <idnar> okay ;)
[19:17] <idnar> I just happened to notice the problem when I was browsing some old branches
[19:20] <abentley> idnar: I don't know what's up with that, because we don't keep logs around from 2010.  However, you can encourage launchpad to re-attempt scanning the branch by pushing to it.
