Issue Roundup

https://github.com/Islandora/documentation/issues/2099

Jared: when you try to add taxonomy term you get a white screen of death
issue with multiple client uses - it thinks it is connecting but it's not and so it gives up and dies
followup discussion in Slack
the solution for now is to turn on ActiveMQ

https://github.com/Islandora-Devops/islandora-playbook/issues/215

Alexander: this may be more of a documenetation issue
Seth mentioned one problem with ansible is if you were trying to deploy with existing Drupal it ran into problems, so thinking of better approaches to this.
Documentation? Could tell ansible to use whatever composer you want, right now we use install profile.
Seth: trying to do a site install for a site that was already installed?
Alexander: if you don't specify a preexisting composer project, it will call one at a time - depending on order of packages, this can cause problems. Might need to have an actual composer project and then you're in charge of it, as it's your project.

Jared has followed up with user
It looks like maybe the Drupal site didn't get created properly and stuff expected to be there isn't.

https://github.com/Islandora-Devops/islandora_install_profile_demo/issues/18

Don: looks like another trying to install manually issue
Jordan: the devel road stuff that appears does not exist - devel maybe not enabled?
Don: if its requiring devel stuff that might be odd?
Tom: what direction steps are they following?
Don: he could be doing composer locally, shells into his platform, enables install profile?

https://github.com/Islandora-Devops/islandora-playbook/issues/214

Alexander: turned out JP2 Cantaloupe support was never fully tested because Cantaloupe was working with TIFFs
Need to fix a couple of entries into the Cantaloupe properties file
Holdover from before grok was directly supported, that is also a part of this cleanup

https://github.com/Islandora-Devops/isle-dc/issues/255

Tom: The exposed variables aren't doing anything either.
Don: If you don't knpw how to reload the environment variable that could be the problem
Don: Do make pull maybe? Running make pull and then make up seems to pull in the .env changes everytime. Building the composer wasn't enough for some reason? Could just be my own user environment.
Don to follow up with comment and pr for resetting env variables

https://github.com/Islandora/documentation/issues/2094

Seth: Went into php commandline and trying to write a file to the Fedora file system. If you don't have the right authorization role when you go into it, it will throw out an authorization error. But if writing a command to copy the file over, it was reporting that it was successful and created the file when it shouldn't have been. How did the True response get received? we explicitly say unless you get a 2 or 4 return false
Requires more detailled debugging to find where exactly the issue is happening.
Don: Looking into the raw response instead of trying to get the status code - how does drupal handle a 404? it gives you a page, more of a 302 redirect thing.
Seth: Shows Fedora correctly responding 403 - so this is weird
Seth: Itss the flysystem that is the source of the problem?
Adam: Maybe it's supposed to be sending false? But it's possibly expecting exceptions to be thrown on failure.
Seth: The flysystem abstract class says it should return false on a failure.

https://github.com/Islandora-Devops/isle-dc/issues/251

Alan: Recurrence of previous problem. OCR was attempting to multithread which it does not do well. Other problems with the server which have been masquerading as this problem. A single thread will consume something like 80% of the resources.

Pull Request Roundup

https://github.com/Islandora-Devops/islandora_install_profile_demo/pull/19

On ISLE, via browse collection.
Addresses bug - exception that is being pointed out is something that danny had posted a patch for context a while back.
https://www.drupal.org/project/context/issues/3111414 might have solved this.
Don: will check to see if the file that its patching still applies practically.

https://github.com/Islandora/documentation/pull/2097

Reformatting of PR template
Alex to take a look

https://github.com/Islandora/documentation/pull/2095 https://github.com/Islandora-Devops/isle-dc/pull/252 https://github.com/Islandora-Devops/isle-dc/pull/253

Tom: Improving the sections as well as documentation regarding issues with SSL certificates and issues brought in with the traefik.me SSL search.
To clarify main ticket, what order these PRs need to be considered in, and what testing instructions are, and then ping the slack channel.

https://github.com/Islandora-Devops/islandora-playbook/pull/210 https://github.com/Islandora/documentation/issues/2070

Alexander: Ready to review
- To test: Check out an older commit before the Alpaca changes and then run a full site build. Then check out the 2070 branch and run ansible again, make sure you can run derivatives.
Jared to follow up.
