nkinkadeAt least I *think* that was my mistake ... they were just empty files, not actual symlinks to /boot/<something>00:00
nkinkadeBut I wasn't sure why that would cause it to not boot.00:00
paulproteus?00:00
paulproteusThose symlinks are totally ignored since the Debian moved from grub to lilo.00:01
nkinkadeEven after I fixed that it took quite a while to come back up, maybe 5 minutes.  I half wondered whether the system was just doing a fsck.00:01
paulproteus(I imagine so.)00:01
nkinkadeRe: links.00:01
nkinkadeThat's what I thought, but it was the only thing that occurred to me.00:01
*** mihaih has quit IRC00:01
nkinkadeSince it took about 5 minutes to come up even after the RapidRescue, I figured that it was probably a unfortunately-timed routine file system check on boot.00:02
paulproteusOuch, interrupted a fsck.00:02
nkinkadepaulproteus: By the way, how did you install Varnish on a8.  I see it's just 1.1.2, but I had applied a patch to the i386 version to make it 1.1.2-1.00:03
nkinkadeI rebuild the package, which patch applied on a5 as 1.1.2-1.  I'll probably install that build on every system.00:03
nkinkades/rebuild/rebuilt/00:03
paulproteusnkinkade, Okay, cool.00:03
paulproteusI don't really remember.00:04
paulproteusI think I just apt-src -bi install varnish'd.00:04
nkinkadeOh.  I grabbed the source from source forge, patched the code, then used dch -a to add comments, then rebuilt.00:04
nkinkade(Took me a while to find dch again ... I had forgot the name of that tool)00:05
paulproteusWhat patch did you apply?00:05
paulproteusI saw in the scrollback!00:05
nkinkadehttp://varnish.projects.linpro.no/ticket/19700:05
paulproteusOh, that joyful patch.00:05
nkinkadehttp://varnish.projects.linpro.no/changeset/254500:06
nkinkadeA very tiny little fix, but makes a big difference in some cases.00:06
paulproteusThe difference between the almost right word & the right word is really a large matter--it's the difference between the lightning bug and the lightning. - Letter to George Bainton, 10/15/1888  -- http://www.twainquotes.com/Lightning.html00:08
nkinkadeDoh!00:10
nkinkadeInternal error: cc(1) complained:00:10
nkinkadesh: line 0: exec: cc: not found00:10
paulproteusbuild-essential baby00:11
nkinkadeI forgot that Varnish require a C compile on the system.00:11
paulproteusapt-get build-dep varnish # should also do it ...00:11
paulproteusEr, isn't that a dependency?00:11
paulproteusIf not, that's seriously a bug in the package.00:11
paulproteusYou should use reportbug.00:11
nkinkadeI think it's a dependency, but it didn't install it.00:11
paulproteusWhat the f kind of "dependency" is that?00:11
nkinkadehttp://varnish.projects.linpro.no/wiki/FAQ#DoesVarnishrequirethesystemtohaveaCcompiler00:13
*** Steren has left #cc00:14
paulproteusRight, so I'm saying, the Debian package shouldn't have let the install of Varnish finish without demanding you install a C compiler.00:14
nkinkadeHmm.  Interestingly it installed Varnish, the version from etch, but there is no C compiler.  Well, there is no /usr/bin/cc, though there is a /usr/bin/gcc.  Do I just need to add a symlink?00:18
paulproteusThis is due to /etc/alternatives breakage.00:19
nkinkadeAh.00:19
paulproteusThis is "the only problem" with copying /etc wholesale.00:19
paulproteusdpkg --purge gcc ; apt-get install gcc00:19
nkinkadeI just noticed that by looking on a8.00:19
paulproteusThat should do it?00:19
nkinkadeIt won't let me do anything because of some other problems with a few broken packages (nagios) ...00:20
nkinkadeI imagine I can force it.00:20
paulproteus?00:20
paulproteusHow broken?00:20
paulproteusFeel free to paste mumbo-jumbo or just tell me, "Join me in a screen -x".00:20
nkinkadeMaybe I should just fix the problems with nagios and that shoudl do it.  The nagios configs were off so it hasn't marked Nagios as being configured because it failed to launch.00:21
paulproteusOh, okay.00:22
paulproteusSounds good to me.00:22

hdworakok, my findings are the following:00:25
hdworak- DC.rights.license when serialised to RDF/XML yields valid XML, because00:25
hdworakSTag ::= '<' Name (S Attribute)* S? '>'00:26
hdworakName ::= (Letter | '_' | ':') (NameChar)*00:26
nkinkadepaulproteus:00:26
nkinkadedpkg: dependency problems prevent removal of gcc:00:26
nkinkade build-essential depends on gcc (>= 4:4.1.1).00:26

jibotrejon is a killer MC from staten island and is the 10th member of the wutang clan and http://www.rejon.org/00:26
hdworakand SPARQL handles such queries with grace, too00:27
paulproteus--force-depends it ; you're going to reinstall it in a second anyway.00:27
hdworakit is only the limitation of either n3 format itself or rdflib's serialisation to it that prevents the developer from serialising dc.rights.license RDF to n3 (because it then cannot be loaded)00:27
nkinkadepaulproteus: Is that really necessary.  It would appear /etc/alternatives is right and that the only thing missing is /usr/bin/cc -> /etc/alternatives/cc00:29
paulproteusnkinkade, Oh, okay.00:29
nkinkadepaulproteus: It *looks* that way to me.00:29
paulproteusThat makes sense.00:30
paulproteusBut if you were me, you'd avoid any doubt by asking the package to fix itself.00:30
nkinkadeThat makes sense.00:32
nkinkadeI'll do a force depends in a second.00:32

ankitgpaulproteus: Q1.) is it possible for there to be cases with multiple txt files in a gz log?20:15
hdworakdo you have a decent broadband connection at the East Coast?20:15
ankitgas in multiple text files within a single log archive [.gz] ... ?20:16
paulproteushdworak, Decent enough, yeah.20:17
paulproteusI'm inside acm.jhu.edu, which is a fairly nice .edu connection.20:18
paulproteusankitg, No.20:21
paulproteusThe gz format is defined as "a single file compressed".20:22
ankitgpaulproteus: That's good to know ... Also, trying to get hold of the web logs for http://creativecommons.org/ for metadata adoption ... but I think I grabbed the wrong logs >.< ... can you point me to the right ones ... would be a time-saver ... ?20:23
paulproteusHmm, I think that's the right one.20:23
*** tvol has quit IRC20:23
paulproteusI admit, I want to focus on getting you just what you need for the mid-term stuff I asked for and then go back on vacation.20:23
paulproteusI don't remember what I asked of you, though.20:23
paulproteusYou're welcome to bug others for other stuff than that. (-:20:24
*** tvol has joined #CC20:25
ankitgpaulproteus: I have the basic python script up ... scan dir for gz files, iterates through them and reads the contents ... matches the contents pattern line by line with the combined log pattern [for all the logs in that directory] ... now I need to add in the code for pulling out the metadata and the search terms and sorts ... which would be easy, if I could pin down the exact logs ... something I seem to be having difficulty with )-:20:27
* ankitg feels guilty for obstructing vacation ... )-:20:28
paulproteusAh-hah.20:29
paulproteusLet's see.20:31
paulproteusWhat are you trying?20:31
paulproteusI actually have fairly little experience with the logs myself.20:32
paulproteusI mean, with the S3-stored version.20:32
paulproteusnkinkade has quite a bit more.20:32
paulproteusBut he's probably at lunch (can nathany confirm or deny this?).20:32
paulproteusSo maybe I'll say, "Ask nkinkade"?  And if he doesn't answer you in an hour or two, then ask me again.20:33
paulproteusHow's that? (-:20:33
ankitgpaulproteus: the logs seem simple enough ... esp with sisynala [and other stuff I read on the combined log format] ... there even seem to be some tools which do some statistical analysis for such logs, though not exactly what we are doing ...20:34
* Bovinity confirms nkinkade's status20:34
paulproteusankitg, /me nods20:35
ankitgI found a PERL module for log stats analysis ... but since I've started python, and we're using it everywhere else [and it seems very easy to use] ... I continue with it ...20:35
paulproteusOkay (-:20:36
paulproteusWhat did I ask you to do for midterm?20:36
paulproteusI forget...20:36
ankitgpaulproteus: I'll check back with you @ 6:30 [in 2 hours] ... hopefully I am awake enough =)20:36
paulproteusankitg, Okay, great - I'll be more available over the weekend probably.20:36
* ankitg curses the timezone diff.20:37
*** hdworak1 has joined #cc20:37
*** hdworak has quit IRC20:37
*** hdworak1 is now known as hdworak20:37
ankitgpaulproteus: 1) Sites changing licenses? [which will be the tricky one - since each say is not always a diff log]20:37
ankitg2) Metadata adoptio20:38
ankitg*2) Metadata adoption20:38
ankitg3) What are people searching for on search-dot creativecommons.org [depending on whether the javascript works and gets logged]20:39
paulproteus1) Right - this should be "easy" if you just look at look at the referers to the image icons20:39
nathanywhat do you want me to confirm/deny?20:39
paulproteusnathany, if nkinkade is @ lunch20:39
nathanyoh,20:39
paulproteusBovinity already confirmed.20:39
nathanyi'm at home :)20:39
paulproteusOh.20:39
paulproteus(-:20:39
tim_hwangrejon -- for the mexican delegation -- what should we offer up?20:40
tim_hwangshould i put together a short presentation overivew?20:40
tim_hwangfollowed by lunch or something?20:40
paulproteusankitg, I wrote in the email, it seems:20:40
paulproteusYou'll have to decode the $URL we told you that $IP visited into something20:40
paulproteusmore meaningful, so you can say:20:40
paulproteus$IP got the image button for $LICENSE on $DATE20:40
paulproteusI guess what you really want for (1) is "$LICENSE button gotten with referer $REFERER on $DATE", and then you can sort by date and see if any $REFERER got a different $LICENSE ever.20:41
paulproteusI guess I wrote that in early May.20:41
paulproteusLet me know if I'm making sense.20:41
rejontim_hwang: right, just do quick presentation of what cc does (you can piece together mine or from that presentation resources page) at cc office20:43
rejonor do first then go eat, or something20:43
rejonbasically, wing-it ;)20:43
ankitgpaulproteus: okie, that is easy to do ... and I can sort once I get the conversion from string to date ... but wouldn't it be resource intensive to do that for all the $REFERER s?20:43
paulproteusankitg, I expect sisynala to help with the date->date object conversion.20:45
paulproteusre: resource intensive: If you want, I can give you some advice on handling that.20:45
paulproteusOr you can try to think of stuff youreslf.20:45
paulproteusFor one thing, it occurs to me, if you create a (temporary?) table of (referer, date, license_they_got_the_button_for) then the answer is a fairly simple SQL query.20:46
paulproteusThere may be other ways to do this.20:46
ankitgpaulproteus: I tried sisynala ... hmmm, I'll figure it out ... okie this is done ... first I get a list of all unique referrers and then I get changes in their license ...20:46
tim_hwangrejon, on it, CCing20:47
ankitgpaulproteus: hmmm, so I wrap this one up in 2 hours and then get back to you about the logs for 2 ... (-:20:49
paulproteusankitg, I like that idea!20:49
ankitgpaulproteus: on another note: put all the new time-series data into SQL ... would be great to have access to the text files for sanity checking once you're back from your "vacation" (-:20:50
paulproteusankitg, Okay (-:20:51
paulproteusEmail me and I'll file it (-:20:51
*** stevel has quit IRC20:51
* ankitg adds another mailto: to his ever-growing TO DO list ...20:52
nkinkadeankitg: Was there still something you wanted to ask me?20:53
ankitgnkinkade: awesome ...20:53
ankitgI wanted to know which logs can I get info about "Metadata adoption" from ... ?20:54
nkinkadeankitg: How do you mean?  By looking at referring URLs or something?20:55
ankitgI tried the creativecommons.org in A7, but I think I have the wrong ones ...20:55
ankitgyes the form should add stuff to the URL if I am correct ...20:55
paulproteusankitg, Ask nathany what "metadata adoption" means if you don't grok it (-:20:55
*** stevel has joined #cc20:55
nathanythose are the right ones, ankit20:56
nathanyankitg: ^^20:56
nathanyit means "how many people are filling in the extra information on the license chooser"?20:56
nathanyso the /license/results-one requests, you'll have to look at the query string20:56
ankitgexactly ... so I need to look at the URL and there should be ?<$FIELD-NAME>=<$VALUE> that I need to pick up ... right?20:57
nkinkadeHere's an example: http://creativecommons.org/license/results-one?q_1=2&q_1=1&field_commercial=yes&field_derivatives=yes&field_jurisdiction=us&field_format=&field_worktitle=test&field_attribute_to_name=test&field_attribute_to_url=test&field_sourceurl=test&field_morepermissionsurl=test&lang=en_US&language=en_US&n_questions=320:57
nathanyright20:57
nkinkadeBut I'm sure you've seen many of those by now.20:58
nathanyso you're looking for field_attribute_to_url20:58
nathanyfield_sourceurl20:58
nathanyetc20:58
hdworakgosh20:58
nathanythe ones that nkinkade set to test above, it looks like20:58
hdworakGET has a length limit :)20:58
nkinkadeMy example is bad because every field has "test" which doesn't do you any good in figuring our which var corresponds to which field.20:58
nathanyhdworak: yes, but it's really really long ;)20:58
nkinkade:-)20:58
ankitgthat's what I was expecting too ... let me see if I was just unlucky to have picked up a "BAD" log ...20:58
hdworak& separator - problems with entities - better use semicolon :)20:59
nkinkadeYeah, sorry to past that huge URL, maybe it was big enough for a pastebin. :-)20:59
nathanyso we're interested in how often people fill in those fields, and has the frequency changed20:59
ankitgnathany: noted. This is a better way of doing it than search, more accurate.21:01
nkinkadeankitg: nathany: Will those URLs show up in the access log, since mod_rewrite is redirecting that internally, not to mention that those values are submitted via a POST.21:01
nkinkadeOr is it redirect.21:02
nathanythey're submitted via GET, i thought21:02
nathanyactually i'm 99.99% sure its GET21:02
nathany(since you pasted in the URL :) )21:02
nkinkadenathany: Looks like you are right.21:03
nathanynkinkade: why is your example bad?21:03
nkinkadeSorry about that.21:03
nathanyyou just parse the URL and get a dict back21:03
ankitgnkinkade: I see some in the logs now =)21:03
nathanygreat21:03
nkinkadeMy example was bad because with "test" in every "Additonal Info" field there is no way to use the value entered as a quick way to map a value to a particular field, though the variable names themselves should be totally sufficient.21:04
ankitgnow to start mapping these back to the form options ... firing up firebug =)21:04
nkinkadeankitg: An easier way might be to just fill in the form once yourself with unique values for each field.21:04
ankitgnkinkade: also an option ...21:05
nkinkadeThen see what variable that value gets paired up with in the URL.21:05
* ankitg starts contaminating his data :P21:05
nkinkade(But I LOVE Firebug!)21:05

ankitghmmm so you say you want the frequency on this ... that would mean I need to define [or give the user an option to define] a time frame for this ... as in 5 entries per DAY or 100 entries per MONTH or something to that accord ... I am so going to have fun with Python date formats ...21:09
nathany:)21:13
ankitgpaulproteus: one more thing [for 3] ... you wanted to check on the JS and get back to me ... I'll finish 1.) and 2.) ... then we'll get back to 3 which does not seem too difficult ... thanks (-: ... enjoy your vacation.21:14
paulproteusankitg, What does "check on the JS and get back to you" mean?21:14
