2025-04-19T00:56:57  <matrix-o-o> <Rachel> Is it just my internet or is the wiki down for others?
2025-04-19T00:57:33  <matrix-o-o> <Rachel> Oh ya the status page says partial outage hmm
2025-04-19T01:17:38  <acidsys> it's not down, just slow occasionally
2025-04-19T01:18:02  <acidsys> the partial outage is related to no search functionality on non-english wikis
2025-04-19T11:20:00  *** teepee_ is now known as teepee
2025-04-19T12:39:53  <acidsys> has someone heard of comrad (Bernd)?
2025-04-19T12:40:11  <comrad> that would be me?
2025-04-19T12:40:18  <acidsys> oh, you're here
2025-04-19T12:40:29  <acidsys> can we move https://code.opensuse.org/comrad/archrwr to some shared place?
2025-04-19T12:40:58  <comrad> sure thing! feel free to do so!
2025-04-19T12:41:52  <acidsys> I'm not sure about Pagure, but when you open the settings of this repository do you have some option to move it under https://code.opensuse.org/projects/heroes/%2A ?
2025-04-19T12:42:33  <comrad> let me try, but i am pretty sure not part of the project team
2025-04-19T12:43:28  <comrad> i can "give the project" to some usernames, but not a project itself
2025-04-19T12:43:28  <acidsys> I added you to https://code.opensuse.org/group/heroes, not sure if that is sufficient
2025-04-19T12:43:35  <acidsys> hmm
2025-04-19T12:43:51  <acidsys> is "heroes" a valid username? :P
2025-04-19T12:45:00  <comrad> sadly not, i just tried it
2025-04-19T12:45:09  <acidsys> oki then I will clone + push and then you can delete it from your end
2025-04-19T12:45:36  <comrad> i can give y ou permissions on the repo if you need
2025-04-19T12:45:56  <comrad> everyone from heroes is now admin on the repo
2025-04-19T12:46:23  <comrad> acidsys: what about tck104328? that was another thing i packaged for per jessen.
2025-04-19T12:46:39  <acidsys> ah thanks, would not have been needed, I already pushed it to https://code.opensuse.org/heroes/archrwr now, so you could delete the one under your name
2025-04-19T12:46:53  <acidsys> hm let me check what that was
2025-04-19T12:47:26  <comrad> https://code.opensuse.org/comrad/tck104328
2025-04-19T12:49:01  <acidsys> it seems this was only used on pontifex which is no longer maintained by us, a quick scan with salt does not show it installed anywhere
2025-04-19T12:49:26  <acidsys> so I would leave it for now
2025-04-19T12:49:53  <acidsys> thank you!
2025-04-19T12:55:15  <comrad> happy to help!
2025-04-19T13:06:38  <acidsys> made https://code.opensuse.org/heroes/archrwr/pull-request/1 to repair the build failure on tumbleweed
2025-04-19T15:18:48  *** teepee_ is now known as teepee
2025-04-19T19:13:35  <cboltz> "nice" - even with the restrictions we added, zh.o.o still got 194k /index.php requests - compared to 4k requests to other things like /$pagetitle
2025-04-19T19:16:11  <acidsys> we did not add many new restrictions for wiki
2025-04-19T19:16:44  <acidsys> most recent changes were in the http frontend for redmine
2025-04-19T19:17:13  <cboltz> maybe we should do so for zh /index.php (with an exception for logged in users)
2025-04-19T19:17:50  <acidsys> I'm not sure blocking the homepage for an entire country is a good idea
2025-04-19T19:19:17  <acidsys> or will it still work with the prettified path?
2025-04-19T19:19:30  <cboltz> requests to /index.php are not average readers - these requests are more "special", for example looking at the page history
2025-04-19T19:19:47  <cboltz> requests to /some_page will/should still work of course
2025-04-19T19:21:38  <cboltz> I'm just looking at the en access log to see if there might be exceptions where /index.php requests (BTW: only 2k today) do sane things
2025-04-19T19:21:46  <acidsys> ok, having history only for logged in users is I think a reasonable compromise
2025-04-19T19:22:33  <acidsys> or possibly even add exception for action=history
2025-04-19T19:25:40  <cboltz> we might need some more exceptions, give me a few minutes ;-)
2025-04-19T19:30:12  *** teepee_ is now known as teepee
2025-04-19T19:33:33  <cboltz> I think I found an even better way - block everything with   /index.php?days=   (with various number of days + other parameters)
2025-04-19T19:33:56  <cboltz> this matches 150k requests on zh today
2025-04-19T19:35:39  <cboltz> example link on en.o.o: http://en.opensuse.org/index.php?days=1&hideminor=1&hidemyself=1&limit=500&target=openSUSE%3ABuild_Service_Concepts&title=Special%3ARecentChangesLinked
2025-04-19T19:37:01  <cboltz> This "Related changes" page lists "changes on pages linked to or from that page", therefore it's not surprising that it needs quite some time to collect that data
2025-04-19T19:46:28  <cboltz> after this finding, the "things we shouldn't block" list becomes more of a side note, but I'll show it nevertheless: https://paste.opensuse.org/pastes/5c6ab5d7a46d (Note: it is probably incomplete since I stopped reading the log after finding days= as "block this")
2025-04-19T20:21:59  <acidsys> sounds like a plan
2025-04-19T20:23:34  <acidsys> and if those 150k requests primarily from specific countries limit it to that
2025-04-19T20:24:20  <cboltz> I'll leave checking the countries to you
2025-04-19T20:24:50  <cboltz> but since these requests focus on a specific wiki, I'd even be fine with requiring login for all days= requests in that wiki
