604084 - Basket: Can't connect to LDAP

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(mozilla.org Graveyard :: Server Operations, task)

Description

[Alex Buchanan [:abuchanan]]

I'm getting error emails from Basket,

Error: {'desc': "Can't contact LDAP server"}


Aravind said this is probably due to a moved LDAP slave that was moved.

Do you get more detail that than?  Is it transient?

Comment 2

[Alex Buchanan [:abuchanan]]

These errors come and go sometimes, usually I ignore them and they go away quickly.  These have been going for 12+ hours now.

Seems like they started about the time that jabba pulled a minor Basket update.  That update only touched one line afaik, and it wasn't related to LDAP.

Sorry, I can't think of any more detail.  Maybe check that settings_local.py is pointing at the correct LDAP slave?

I emailed and thought I filed a bug on making the new LDAP slaves permanent.  

settings_local.py is pointing to the now-decommissioned LDAP slave.  

LDAP = {
    'host': 'ldap://pm-weaveadmin01.mozilla.org',

That should be 10.10.12.11 or 10.10.12.12.

I should also say, I was told there wasn't anything in svn that had to be changed and that my local edit was just fine.

Comment 5

[matthew zeier [:mrz]]

I manually edited that file (again).  Who has to fix this in svn or whatever so it doesn't break on the next update?

Let's not put configs in revision control.  use -dist or something to avoid conflicts or we can use a script to generate config files -- whatever we can do to avoid getting a conflict in a config.

Comment 7

[Alex Buchanan [:abuchanan]]

Changes to settings_local.py shouldn't be getting reverted.  How did that happen?

I mean we should, but not in a way that causes conflicts.  :)

I don't know but I'm punting to oremj.

Comment 10

[Michael Morgan [:morgamic]]

Let's find out what caused the issue:
- rcs conflict on update
- git lock
- the code change
- another cause

Matthew, will you give me the full path to the file you edited?

The deploy script wasn't run. https://intranet.mozilla.org/DjangoApps#How_to_update_an_app .
