Jabber.sugarlabs.org 5222 port not responding

[garycmartin]

Trying to test the new F11 builds with collaboration here having not seen any buddies in the neighbourhood for some time. FWIW, local AP collaboration via salut is failing (will report this elsewhere I think), but when testing it also turns out that jabber.sugarlabs.org is not responding:

telnet jabber.sugarlabs.org 5222

Managing to temporally use jabber.olpchacks.org to test for now.

There was some issue related to ejabberd consuming more memory than it's supposed to.

[gdesmott]

Yeah for some reason ejabberd decided than eating as much memory as possible was really fun... :(

[bernie]

I think Cassidy is the admin of jabber.sugarlabs.org.

I'd like to get access to that VM if possible, or better consolidate it with the other ejabberd server running on sunjammer to provide service for USER@….

[gdesmott]

Apparantly ejabberd stopped to consume that much memory. Is that working for you?

Bernie: sure. Did you check if we can have LDAP and "local" accounts at the same time (as we discussed in Brussels)?

[bernie]

Replying to gdesmott:

Yeah, it's supported:

{auth_method, [internal, ldap]}.

[bernie]

Replying to bernie:

{auth_method, [internal, ldap]}.

The whole thing would be:

{auth_method, [internal, ldap]}.
{ldap_servers, ["ldap.sugarlabs.org"]}.
{ldap_base, "dc=sugarlabs,dc=org"}.
{ldap_uids, [{"uid", "%u"}]}.

[bernie]

(slapd on sunjammer is currently only reachable from localhost)

[gdesmott]

Cool. Could you open another ticket to track the LDAP integration?

[bernie]

Replying to gdesmott:

Done. See #546 .

[garycmartin]

FWIW, I think jabber.sugarlabs.org:5222 has been off-line again now since the end of last week. Is this still the flakey jabberd with shared roster issues?

[gdesmott]

For some reason Ejabberd decided to occasionnally start to consume as much memory as possible. :\
The shared roster is not enabled so that's not the reason of this failure.

schoolserver.solutiongrove.com is currently working.

Solution Grove needs to stress test our system. Does it make sense to redirect jabber.sugarlabs.org to schoolserver.solutiongrove.com for a few weeks? I think we have more bandwidth to upgrade, gather statistics and debug. If there are people in the community who want to join us we can give them shell access to the VM we are running.

[bernie]

I believe the Sugar Labs developers require Gadget to test integration.

Does the XS already support it? If not, could Solution Grove work on the integrating it?

Also, if we could get LDAP support working there, I'd turn off the other ejabberd instance on sunjammer and repoint the SRV records to the schoolserver.

[daveb]

We can install Gadget, its not included in XS yet (at least I'll try to install it!)

What do we need LDAP for? I am not sure I understand what LDAP and SRV are for.

[garycmartin]

Closing as this was a specific incident, maybe need a new ticket for "0.86 implement gadget and design it's Sugar UI"
