[15:25:29]<Captain_Haddock>Platform adding problems: http://pastebin.ca/2052434
[15:26:40]<Captain_Haddock>"The directory /var/aegir/platforms/d7 does not contain a valid Drupal installation" <-- This does - a drush downloaded D7 install.
[15:27:05]<Captain_Haddock>"Drupal sites directory /var/aegir/platforms/d7/sites is not writable by the provisioning script" <--- the /d7 tree has aegir:aegir as its permissions.
[15:27:56]<Captain_Haddock>"Use of undefined constant VERSION - assumed 'VERSION' verify.provision.inc:71" <-- I'm not sure about this.. but the .info files of the drush download have two "version" statements one with VERSION and another with the right version.

[17:38:43]<Captain_Haddock>So, my platforms are verified successfully if on a local server and fail when on a remote server.
[17:38:49]<Captain_Haddock>(with the error above)
[17:39:10]<Captain_Haddock>Is there any way to run the verification from the commandline with some debugging output?
[17:39:18]<Captain_Haddock>gah.
[17:39:21]<Captain_Haddock>Sundays suck.
[17:40:27]<darthsteven>Captain_Haddock: yup, just add the --debug option to drush
[17:42:09]<Captain_Haddock>darthsteven: what's the command to verify a platform using drush? Is there one?
[17:42:18]<Captain_Haddock>(and thanks for being active :D)
[17:42:44]<darthsteven>drush @platform-alias provision-verify --debug
[17:43:11]<darthsteven>if you view the task log from the frontend, the command will be in there somewhere...
[17:43:29]<darthsteven>probably with the --backend option, which you won't want for debugging
[17:44:03]<darthsteven>make sure to run the command as the aegir user
[17:44:08]<Captain_Haddock>ah
[17:44:12]<darthsteven>what error do you get in the frontend?
[17:44:18]<Captain_Haddock>"/usr/share/drush/drush.php --root='/var/aegir/platforms/d7' provision-save '@platform_d7' --backend 2>&1" <--- this one?
[17:44:23]<Captain_Haddock>darthsteven ^
[17:44:50]<darthsteven>Captain_Haddock: no, there will be one further down the log
[17:45:00]<darthsteven>with provision-verify in it
[17:45:05]<Captain_Haddock>darthsteven: error message for a remote server: http://pastebin.ca/2052434
[17:45:08]<Captain_Haddock>looking
[17:45:11]* lolmaus has joined #aegir
[17:47:37]<Captain_Haddock>darthsteven: it appears that drush is looking for this platform on the local server even though I've set it to the remote one.
[17:47:47]<darthsteven>yup
[17:47:51]<darthsteven>this is how Aegir works
[17:47:53]<darthsteven>so
[17:48:08]<darthsteven>you have the platform code locally, but you set the server to be remote
[17:48:20]<darthsteven>Aegir will rsync the local codebase out to the remote server
[17:48:33]<darthsteven>but it needs to be kept locally too
[17:48:54]<Captain_Haddock>oh, I see! I was settings things up in /var/aegir/platforms on the remote server.
[17:49:06]<Captain_Haddock>I guess that this make it a DOH! moment :/
[17:49:21]<darthsteven>More of a Aegir WTF moment
[17:49:29]* sk33lz has quit (Quit: Leaving.)
[17:49:42]<Captain_Haddock>makes sense now though - I only want to tinker with the single instance of the codebase
[17:49:43]<darthsteven>basically you shouldn't need to touch the remote server
[17:49:53]<Captain_Haddock>right
[17:50:14]<darthsteven>do everything on the local server, and a verify will push changes to the remote server
[17:51:42]<Captain_Haddock>darthsteven: if that's the case though, then won't I have to maintain a unique copy of a D7 checkout (for e.g.) for each server? (Since Aegir wants a unique publish path?)
[17:52:10]<darthsteven>you will indeed
[17:52:46]<Captain_Haddock>that's a little counterintuitive/counterproductive
[17:54:12]<Captain_Haddock>darthsteven: so, hypothetically speaking, if I have 20 remote servers and 20 instances of a Drupal 7.0 checkout on my master server. What happens when 7.1 comes out?
[17:55:15]<darthsteven>Then you'll need to create new platforms for 7.1 and move the sites on each platform over
[17:55:51]<Captain_Haddock>darthsteven: presumably a new platform for each of the 20 remote servers?
[17:56:01]<darthsteven>yup
[17:56:03]<Captain_Haddock>I guess this is where makefiles come in handy.
[17:56:29]<darthsteven>indeed
[17:57:17]<Captain_Haddock>I see. That was enlightening. Many thanks darthsteven :)
[17:58:30]<darthsteven>np
[18:02:04]<Captain_Haddock>out of curiosity, how creative do you get with platform names? drupal-7.0a to drupal-7.0z? etc.?
[18:02:49]<Captain_Haddock>it'd be nice if the system just namespaced things with the server name or similar.

[21:54:45]<dagomar>aegir rocks, installed it 4 days ago and i am standing in *awe*, however i have a question about moving sites out of aegir. How can I do this in the most convenient way?

[21:57:08]* V1ntage_afk is now known as V4ntage
[21:57:10]<dagomar>i think i should probably make a backup, then as root user copy the backup to a different folder and make it available for download (sftp), then assemble the exact same drupal install on the clients server and upload the backup to the sites folder.
[21:57:29]<dagomar>does that seem about right?
[21:58:09]<dagomar>i tried searching by the way, but only found ways of moving sites into aegir, which i was able to do :)
[22:03:03]* V4ntage has quit (Quit: ChatZilla 0.9.86.1 [Firefox 4.0/20110318052756])
[22:07:50]<boztek>dagomar: sounds workable - just remember that the backup is only site folder + files + db dump ... the platform code is not included (use makefiles to manage these preferably)
[22:07:50]<hefring>boztek: 3 days 19 hours ago <mig5> tell boztek not true re: SSL, we just have no SSL cert management yet. you can let it create self-signed certs, then replace those files with the proper certs and aegir won't know any different
[22:08:19]<boztek>hefring: thanks - yeah i tried that and it seemed to work
[22:08:19]<hefring>sure thing
[22:08:48]<boztek>mig5: thanks - yeah i tried that and it seemed to work
[22:09:05]<dagomar>thanks boztek
[22:10:01]<dagomar>i indeed forgot to mention that, i'm keeping a makefile handy for that. Did i mention aegir is awesome? :D
