New hosting for libsdl.org

slouken · August 17, 2013, 3:23am

The new hosting for the forums is working out so well we’re moving all the
other libsdl.org services as well. Expect bugzilla, the wiki, and the main
website to be down for a few hours while DNS transitions over this weekend.

Cheers!

Update:

Most of this is moved over now, and (once the forums user lists is
culled for spammers and MySQL stops eating all the CPU), everything
should be much faster.

Added bonus: since all the libsdl.org domains are on a unique IP address
now, I’ve added an SSL certificate, so you can hit
https://hg.libsdl.org/ or whatever. In fact, we try to force encryption
where possible now.

The new server is hosted at Digital Ocean. We don’t need money to cover
the extremely small hosting cost, but if you plan to prop up a server of
your own, feel free to use my referral link: it’ll automatically toss
credit into the account that pays for the server.

Last update:

Everything should be moved over now, and presumably everyone’s DNS has
caught up. We doubled the RAM and CPU cores this morning; even
discounting the fact we had more resources to start with than we had on
Dreamhost, this should give us a nice buffer for performance. We’ve
updated a lot of software, so the things should look nicer and work
better. HTTPS should be available on everything.

Most importantly: everything should be much faster, both in response and
bandwidth.

If you’re having problems with anything that’s got a libsdl.org
domain, please let me know and I’ll take a look.

Thanks!

The link to the Wiki on the main libsdl.org page points to http://wiki.libsdl.org/moin.cgi/FrontPage which doesn’t exist anymore, it should be http://wiki.libsdl.org/FrontPage instead I think.On 2013-08-19, at 2:20 PM, Ryan C. Gordon wrote:

These will come later. We have to rebuild that functionality for the new
website if there’s lots of interest in it.On Mon, Aug 19, 2013 at 10:27 AM, Jesse Palser < jessepalsermailinglists at gmail.com> wrote:

Hi,

Can you add links to the SDL2_* support libraries on the new SDL2 website?
(SDL2_Image, SDL2_Mixer, SDL2_TTF, & SDL2_Net)

Also can you add back the functionality for users to add their projects to
the new SDL2 website?

Thanks!

If you’re just looking for the libraries, their pages come up as the first
hit in a google search. Are you feeling lucky? :)On Mon, Aug 19, 2013 at 10:27 AM, Jesse Palser < jessepalsermailinglists at gmail.com> wrote:

Can we get an ETA on the updated locations of the distfiles? Now, nothing exists and that’s broken our pkgsrc bulk builds. I was going to import the SDL2_* packages today, because SDL2 is now in pkgsrc HEAD. Alas, when I checked if everything was good, make fetch fails.

Works flawlessly for the FreeBSD ports. Check http://www.freshports.org/audio/sdl2_mixer/
for an URL example.

The urls are the same as they’ve always been:
http://www.libsdl.org/projects//release/

The tmp URL used for the release candidates was not intended to be a final
release location.On Sat, Aug 31, 2013 at 2:56 PM, rodentNetBSD wrote:
