Maintenance Log
- Return to the main page or
- Return to the Maintenance Index
- As of 3-25-25
- Change wishlist for 3-23 to 3-30
- Update from PHP 8.1.2 to 8.2.X (Weekend.)
- OPcache tuning. MediaWiki is specific about this. (Last.)
- Cancelled: Update nginx from 1.18.x to 1.24.x (1.18 LTS is preferable. See notes on 24.04(+) migration.)
- Implement & customize nginx maintenance mode for automatic handling of downtime events. (Test on sandbox server.)
- TLS & SSL tweaking + session caching. (SSLLabs)
- MariaDB tuning & KeyDB (testing). (See Redis-MediaWiki support notes.)
- Experimentation with memcached strategies. (See above.)
- 3-24 notes
- Added Semantic MediaWiki 5.0.0
- Mostly combing through fail2ban, authentication methods, ssh tunneling, port & address assignments, proxy servers, websockets, nginx in all that, etc.
- 3-25
- Extremely important change in the works. (SUCCESS)
- Preparing for backup and update push.
- Websockets & proxy servers up and running! GoAccess and Netdata now have custom authenticated URLs. This removes the overt preference for SSH tunnels.
- The above allows focusing on real-time tests and less juggling specific service management. The analytics situation just got much easier to deal with.
- https://kenshi.wiki/ is now live. I can begin the process of migrating the wiki core to that site and transition this site into a complementary file repo. A sitemap will be formed now that everything desirable in terms of domains and projects in motions has been achieved.
- Observe
- Wiki project -> https://kenshi.wiki
- Map project (as subdomain of Wikisite)
- Resource repository (Separate site for hosting mods, models, textures, etc.) (At current domain, stripped down.)
- This process has no clear timeline other than ongoing.
- 3-26 notes
- This site will be wound down from 3-26 to ~early April.
- ALL wiki activity will be redirected to https://kenshi.wiki
- https://kenshidb.wiki will begin its transition into a file archive custom fit for Kenshi resources.
- The map will be moved to a subdomain at the "new" wiki.
- This process will be fully complete by April's end.
- Current ETA
- 4-13 complete transition to new sitemap structure.
- 4-27 to solidify server-sided configuration & management scheme. 2 weeks of setup + 2 weeks of testing
- 3-28
- Off in sandbox-land. Site activity remains quiet. Adjusted some aspects of the https://kenshi.wiki server
- (nginx, various proxies, removed old certs, fixed improper apt import, updated services, updated cron jobs, investigated MW sessions, tokens & authmanager)
- Currently, I have a basic model I'm putting together to serve sample files until the foundational aspects of the site are ironed out.
- This site especially is being used as a learning tool to design function-first and allow the form to follow.
- Content grid with icons & titles
- Tag & Type filter via hoverbox interface
- Search bar
- Icon expansion to display content, description & download links
- Maintains single-page environment. Concise top bar with links to map & wiki.
- Many plans, quite a few features to work through. Avoiding user login and upload aspects for now. Structure first.
