[Dxspider-support] Nodes disconnecting after upgrade

[Kin]

The upgrade script is run as root but the installation of dxspider is done
as sysop (sudo su - sysop).

The script is intended for those who have no experience and are afraid of
losing everything, so it incorporates a backup, but there are a lot of
settings ... unorthodox configurations that can lead to problems.

It is normal that you lost the node type because it was probably not defined
in any file (ie startup). 

 

But it's easy, if you follow Dirk's instructions in his UPGRADE file:

git reset --hard

git pull --all

I know they're not. I do development for a living. However, you can see
above, the nodes are not staying connected now.

 

Ran the "upgrade" script update_dxspider.sh as sysop user. I got a lot of
"permission denied" message for directories and files already owned by
sysop.

 

However, the nodes are all disconnecting and reconnecting regularly. All
node settings were lost during the upgrade too. I had to re-run set/spider
for each one.

 

Might just try a clean install.

This email trail (and some similar ones like it) fills me with a certain 
amount of disquiet. This is because I cannot reproduce the errors on my 
test node, nor on the four (large) nodes that I have oversight of. It 
leaves me feeling somewhat powerless to make suggestions and/or to fix 
it. Programs are not supposed to have minds of their own...
