ANNOUNCE: [MAINT] Unplanned DNS outage for gnucash.org domain
Hi, Around 10am EDT yesterday, July 21, the gnucash.org DNS zone signatures expired. This was fixed today, around 1600 EDT. The code that auto-signs the domain is buggy and apparently got itself into a snit and wouldn't re-sign the domain. Of course the errors are, apparently, hidden in log files and not blatantly presented so Linas missed it. He has added another cron job to run the commands to clean up the detritus even if the signing is in good shape, so this failure mode shouldn't happen again. We are sorry for the inconvenience, -derek (for Linas, who runs the DNS domain) -- Derek Atkins 617-623-3745 derek at ihtfp.com www.ihtfp.com Computer and Internet Security Consultant
