I assume that Dave is putting the docs up - I recall that he was doing
some testing of the 8.0 docs earlier. Dave, can you please confirm?

If we can have the docs go up but stay hidden, we'll add the links on
the documentation page when the announcement goes live.

Yes, I have loaded the docs into the database. You will need to modify
the current version in global/settings.php, and add appropriate links
from the docs pages.

Lemme know if you need me to do anything further.

Regards, Dave.

Great, thanks.

Just wondering, are PDFs of the 8.0 docs done yet?

> Lemme know if you need me to do anything further.

Can you please have a look at:

http://www.postgresql.org/about/press/presskit80.html.pl

and

http://www.postgresql.org/about/press/presskit80.html.tr

Both are fine on wwwmaster. pl has a permissions issue and tr has a web
server mime type issue (.tr is being served as application/x-troff).

Thanks,

Emily

See

http://lists.pgfoundry.org/pipermail/pgsqlrpms-hackers/2005-January/000059.html

and the next messages in the thread :)

The process still continues, but could not finish building the PDFs :-)

No idea, I cannot remember who does them.

The server thought it was a perl script. Fixed now.

OK, I commented out the mime type for this one and added tr to the
language list, and the server now serves it as text/html:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Tue, 18 Jan 2005 11:17:35 GMT
Server: Apache/1.3.31 (Unix) PHP/4.3.9 mod_ssl/2.8.20 OpenSSL/0.9.7d
Last-Modified: Tue, 18 Jan 2005 09:51:07 GMT
ETag: "728e0f-4a14-41ecdc0b"
Accept-Ranges: bytes
Content-Length: 18964
Keep-Alive: timeout=15, max=100
Connection: Keep-Alive
Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8
Content-Language: tr

However, I cannot persuade either IE or Firefox to display the file
rather than try to save it. Any ideas?

BTW, we are likely to see these problems on all the mirrors -
particularly the tr one, as that is part of apache's default config.

Regards, Dave.

OK, looks like that was a squid cache issue. Magnus confirms it works OK
for him now as well.

Hmm, still, it looks like we might need to think about the .htaccess
file we ship to the mirrors some more. Possibly ship a whole set of
custom mime types (so we can remove troff), and change the language
handlers (eg, pl should have a .po extension by default - perhaps
because of the clash with perl scripts).

Thoughts anyone?

Regards, Dave.

Peter Eisentraut has done it the last few releases, I think.

Kris Jurka is the one who built the 7.4 pdfs and ISTR him saying there were
some issues with building the 8.0 pdfs; course given my fuzzy memory why
don't I just CC him on this email and see if he can bring us up to speed.

I have not yet tried the 8.0 pdfs.  The 7.4 version was non-trivial, but I
don't expect 8.0 to be much different.  I'll have a crack at it this
afternoon.

My recollection is that for some reason it takes a very, very long time
to generate the PDFs.
