AOLserver Chat Logs

IRC [00:21] <Dossy> Unfortunately, the code is embarrasing. And, unless you're really familiar with Tcl, it won't do you much good.
IRC [00:22] <Dossy> And, it's very fragile still - lots of stupid bugs in it.

IRC [12:41] <Dossy> mmealling: I ALWAYS have that problem. Same goes for lawyer geeks.
IRC [12:41] <Dossy> oops. w/w
IRC [15:44] *** stefcio joined the chat.
IRC [15:45] <stefcio> I have the problem that I cannot build aolserver -4.0.8.
IRC [15:45] <stefcio> The problem is: onn.c: In function ‘NsTclConnObjCmd’:
IRC [15:45] <stefcio> conn.c:843: error: invalid lvalue in assignment
IRC [15:45] <stefcio> make[1]: *** [conn.o] Fehler 1
IRC [15:45] <stefcio> make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/stephan/aolserver-4.0.8/nsd'
IRC [15:45] <stefcio> make: *** [all] Fehler 1
AIM [15:45] <OnlineHost> You have been removed from the room for scrolling.
IRC [15:47] <stefcio> The same happens with version 4.0.10.
IRC [15:59] <Dossy> heh.
IRC [15:59] <Dossy> what OS/platform?
IRC [15:59] <Dossy> and, you definitely want to be on 4.0.10
IRC [16:01] <Dossy> you're compiling with gcc4, right?
IRC [16:01] <Dossy> conn.c error on 4.0.10 is http://www.opensubscriber.com/message/aolserver@listserv.aol.com/1619619.html
IRC [16:02] <Dossy> bot, conn.c error on 4.0.10 is http://www.opensubscriber.com/message/aolserver@listserv.aol.com/1619619.html
IRC [16:13] <stefcio> I am on SUSE 10.0 on an AMD64
IRC [16:13] <stefcio> gcc version is 4.0.2
IRC [16:15] <stefcio> right, this means I should compile with a gcc3, then?
IRC [16:26] <frankie> no, you can easily patch to solve that issue with gcc4
IRC [16:26] <frankie> we had that patch for a while in debian
IRC [16:26] <stefcio> true, thanks
IRC [16:26] <stefcio> after reading the post it's solved now
IRC [16:40] <Dossy> great.
IRC [16:40] <stefcio> good work, thanks
IRC [16:40] <Dossy> yeah, soon enough I'll finally tag 4.0.11 - hey, frankie, wanna be release manager for AOLserver? you can control the upstream :)
IRC [16:40] <Dossy> or maybe I can convince torben to take it.
IRC [16:41] <Dossy> for 2006, I want everyone else to get other folks doing this stuff because I'm just not finding the time. blah :(
IRC [16:41] <frankie> Dossy: not really :)
IRC [16:41] <Dossy> :) okay :)
IRC [16:41] <Dossy> ok, gotta run.
IRC [16:44] <tekbasse> I'd be glad Dossy, but I'm not certain I'm qualified. When you get a chance, spell out the details, maybe make a wiki page about it?
IRC [16:45] <Dossy> tekbasse: Good idea!
IRC [16:46] <Dossy> I'll try to do that. Capture a "Release Manager responsibilities" page ...
IRC [16:46] <Dossy> ok, ttyl.
IRC [16:47] *** stefcio parted the chat.
IRC [17:38] <Peaceful> So my coworker just tried out a recursive proc that does database queries and passes the database handle to itself. AOLServer crashed without any serverlog entry.
IRC [17:38] * Peaceful tells coworker: ITERATE!
IRC [20:15] <Dossy> crashed without any server log entry? interesting - got a coredump handy?
