12:30 donsizemore @pdurbin morning. i may have a whiny metadatablock question in a minute or two, i'm not sure yet.
12:31 pdurbin morning, sure lemme know
12:35 pdurbin Speaking of metadata, check out this post about customizing it: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/dataverse-community/AgYRCOz1Tlk/h_QBHKWTBgAJ
12:37 donsizemore @pdurbin we added one. solr is happy. the testing group is happy. then yesterday we found out by accident that ALL dataverses offer only that metadatablock. good thing it's a test system
12:39 donsizemore @pdurbin in the UI, things look right in the "metadata fields" section of the "edit dataverse" screen. but when one tries to add a dataset to any other dataverse...
12:40 pdurbin Is your custom metadata block on GitHub?
12:41 donsizemore not yet. i can send you the file if you're willing to look at it? or support@dataverse.org
12:41 donsizemore actually, in tinkering this morning, all existing dataverses are affected. new ones get the correct metadata block
12:41 donsizemore and i'm just starting to test different versions in vagrant
12:42 pdurbin support@dataverse.org would be better
12:42 pdurbin which version of Dataverse?
12:44 donsizemore 4.9.4
13:07 bricas_ hey all.
13:08 bricas_ for any dataset where you have to click an
13:09 bricas_ "acept terms" button, the download doesn't seem to work
13:09 bricas_ *accept
13:09 bricas_ e.g. https://dataverse.lib.unb.ca/dataset.xhtml?persistentId=doi:10.25545/AHWHTR
13:15 pdurbin hmm, and you're on 4.12
13:16 bricas_ yep
13:16 pdurbin nothing in the javascript console
13:17 pdurbin it looks like as a work around you could have people go to file landing pages like https://dataverse.lib.unb.ca/file.xhtml?fileId=171&version=1.0 but obviously, that's not great
13:17 bricas_ ya, we noticed you could do that
13:18 pdurbin judging from https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/5743 I think/hope that upgrading to 4.13 will fix it
13:19 bricas_ ah. i will try.
13:20 pdurbin awesome. please keep us posted
13:24 bricas_ bingo!
13:25 pdurbin that was a quick roll out to prod :)
13:25 pdurbin donsizemore: ^^ ;)
13:26 bricas_ not much to it :)
13:27 pdurbin phew
13:29 donsizemore @pdurbin i found my mistake. i enabled the metadata block via API for the :root dataverse rather than the sub-dataverse. but "enabling" sounds like an addition. in this case it was a replace
13:30 pdurbin Hmm, if the docs are confusing, let's fix 'em.
13:35 donsizemore remember the "Duh Click Here" GIF? s/Duh/Don/g
13:35 pdurbin if it wasn't from the 80s I might not remember it
13:58 donsizemore @pdurbin now that i think about it, i do think i found either a bug or an opportunity for a feature request through stupid-user behavior
13:59 donsizemore @pdurbin I enabled a metadatablock on the root dataverse which in turn cascaded to all sub-dataverses, but there was no indication of this in the UI
13:59 donsizemore @pdurbin meaning that when I tried to edit the dataverse, the API-enabled metadatablock wasn't visible and the default remained selected in greyed-out fashion
14:02 pdurbin sounds like a bug, or at least a user experience issue
14:23 pdurbin donsizemore: I'm glad you didn't have any behavioral inhibition over adding screenshots to https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/5782 . Thank you.
14:25 donsizemore in hindsight it all makes sense. i'd still like to tinker and fix it without dropping and reloading, so i haven't started over yet
14:29 pdurbin ok

18:04 pdurbin donsizemore: I'm called in to your boss's webinar. :)
18:07 pdurbin this one: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/dataverse-community/ZA3S-3NDmZQ/5nfBE-XKBgAJ
18:20 donsizemore @pdurbin yeah... about that. if he tries to use the impacttest dataverse and got signed out... akio pushed a commit and jenkins redeployed while he's talking
18:30 pdurbin :)
18:32 pdurbin donsizemore: do you want me to give your 53_http_proxy branch a try?
18:35 donsizemore @pdurbin if you have static certs, sure. i need to finish the letsencrypt stuff. i also need to generate certs for my buildbox so i can actually test the branch =)
18:37 pdurbin ah, I thought maybe you were already done with let's encrypt. I do have a static cert. If I (or someone else) accidentally terminates my dev2 instance, I'll give it a try. :)
18:39 pdurbin I opened https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse-jenkins/issues/1 but I have some more ideas for issues for that repo. Is now a good time to chat about them?
18:41 donsizemore sure thing. also let me know how his talk is going. i'm only getting audio through the wall
18:41 pdurbin Nice demo so far. If he had to log back in, I must have missed it.
18:42 donsizemore he definitely had to because the service restarted during his talk
18:42 pdurbin well, it didn't slow him down, he's on a roll
18:43 pdurbin uh oh, "maybe it didn't work"
18:43 pdurbin not showing a second set of versions or something
18:43 pdurbin "at least we know it's live software when it crashes" :)
18:44 pdurbin Tactus Explorer?!?
18:44 donsizemore tactus is my service monitoring box here... runs nagios
18:45 pdurbin ah
18:45 pdurbin or as a former boss called it... "naggin' us"
18:48 donsizemore naggy-ose
18:49 pdurbin folks here switched to datadog
18:53 pdurbin looks like you're on the infra working group
18:54 pdurbin and the tech working group
18:58 donsizemore oops, i opened an issue and can't submit my own PR. i thought everything bundled in dvinstall.zip was in the source tree
19:01 jri joined #dataverse
19:03 donsizemore so when akio triggered that rebuild and redeploy, we got a login error from datacite... that's what went splat during the talk
19:09 pdurbin not sure what you mean
19:11 donsizemore we've noticed a number of transient errors from datacite since the switch in december
19:26 pdurbin bummer
19:27 pdurbin If we all move to California, we can switch back to EZID. :)
19:35 donsizemore i want to live near grace cathedral
19:36 pdurbin not too far from my brother's place near the presidio
