Onion/Garlic sites for hosted services and build/testing machines about meta HOT 15 CLOSED

We have i2p and tor services pointed to the buildbot web interface and the gitlab mirror, but I was holding off adding the rewrite rules to the web server until we get everything on a new box. But I can go ahead and do that and we'll just move everything later.

But this is the first I heard about i2p/tor access to the build and test machines, but I don't see why we can't set that up for the contributors who already access these machines.

Re: build machines, an onion service would greatly reduce the knowledge-set of exits; which I think would be a good thing. Unless anyone else plans to use an I2P tunnel, I will personally stick to an onion service because speed and flexibility is more of a priority than security for me (in terms of keeping up with the builds and run-time testing) but I support any decision that's made.

All build machines (except windows) are now accessible via onion service. Thank you @danrmiller !!! 🎉 👍 😂

Note: buildbot login now has fixed rewrite rules so i2p login is possible. Another thanks to @danrmiller.

from meta.

I've got the windows machines and arm testing machines ready for you

from meta.

Windows and ARM onions are working 😂 This resolves the build/test portion. @danrmiller is this issue resolved?

from meta.

Yes, resolved.

from meta.

I'm reopening until monero-project/kovri#46 and monero-project/kovri#90 are both resolved. monero-project/kovri#46 may take a long while to resolve though, just FYI.

from meta.

@danrmiller I'll rename the issue once it's down to resolving monero-project/kovri#46 and the Monero website.

from meta.

@danrmiller http://monero-repo.i2p redirects to https://monero-repo.i2p/users/sign_in (failed browser expectations ensue).

from meta.

Sign-ins won't be enabled on this read-only mirror, if you want to browse use
http://monero-repo.i2p/monero-project

I'll fix it so via i2p http://monero-repo.i2p/ goes to http://monero-repo.i2p/monero-project/ or something and let you know, but can't look at it today.

from meta.

Ok, thanks. I didn't think to login, I was mostly complaining about the https redirect but this can work too.

I'm trying to git over http but the site appears offline. Can you please give me a ping when it's back online?

from meta.

OK I restarted i2p and it seems back. This was the error:
CRIT [uterWatchdog] 2p.router.tasks.RouterWatchdog: Router appears hung, or there is severe network congestion. Watchdog starts barking!

One day we'll use kovri.

from meta.

That java I2P error is not uncommon and is usually just a temporary issue. We actually can use kovri now but I won't push to use it.

I'm now getting 500 and 504 responses when trying to git over http. The site looks offline again after the first 500.

from meta.

I left you some messages on IRC. The i2p link is slow; something times out along the way, I've tried adjusting load balancer http buffer sizes and various other things time out. Maybe we'll change the tunnel and use ssh for git instead, and I'll try a few other things.

from meta.

We no longer use this buildot system for years, this can be closed
