all of the bedrock demo, stage and prod environments have cheif, but dev is still using the old bash script. this bug is to track the work for getting www-dev running chief also.

I've heard further reports that www-dev goes down from time to time. We should figure that out. I'm commenting here because I'm wondering if moving www-dev to chief might solve or at least help diagnose the issue. I've yet to file a separate bug for figuring out the dev issue, but I'll do that now if we want. Otherwise I'll wait to see if fixing this one makes it better or not, and file at that point if necessary.

chief wouldn't make any difference with regards to any environment unavailability. off the top of my head i don't recall any specific environment issues, but if we can track down dates/times from any dev outages that have been seen, please provide them. *a quick note on that - if dev is unavailable, all demo environments would be also because they're hosted on the same web heads.

My thought there was perhaps there was something about the other update script that caused it to fail and bring apache with it, and that the chief script would do things differently.

I don't have any good data on when this happened. I know there was a recent bug (bug 937092) in which :flod reported an outage, but I've no idea how quickly the outage was noticed and I don't have any info other than that. I can begin tracking it now, but we've often been able to fix these on our own by using chief on a demo since, like you said, it's the same apache.

The commander script for www-dev is now in the repo:

https://github.com/mozilla/bedrock/blob/master/bin/update/deploy-dev.py

It should be on the dev server in a matter of minutes.

:jakem or :cturra, this is the bug I was referring to during the bedrock devops meeting-- can one of you add the symlink to the file from comment #5 as discussed please?
