PDF files appear to consist of a series of objects that (mostly) look like this:

See T13357 for followup.

This is likely straightforward.

See also PHI1358, which is an actual concrete request for sensible relabeling of "Description" in a subtype.

There's currently a bug (likely related to D20652 or D20654?) where normal edits aren't respecting card order correctly during the redraw. I suspect this is just an order parameter getting lost somewhere.

Everything has made it to master now so I suspect we're in good shape here.

Adjusting log_warnings = 2 in production (to get connection aborts into the error log) is also possibly desirable, although the background level of connection abortions (general network flakiness, server restarts during deploy, wait_timeout on very long-running demons?) may be high enough that this is more noise than signal.

To reproduce this easily:

We could also consider these things:

So actual actionable stuff here is:

Bumping max_allowed_packet to 1G in the server config resolved things. The export process then spent a long time doing a bin/files migration (which could use a progress bar, maybe) and is now doing a dump (which could too, although I'm less sure of how we'd build one).

I adjusted innodb_log_file_size to 1GB and attempted the import again, but ran into the same issue.

The "age of the last checkpoint" error appears to primarily implicate innodb_log_file_size, which is currently set to the default value (5MB):

I'll also double check wait_timeout and interactive_timeout...

Aha! The MySQL error log actually appears to have something useful:

Run it with source ...;

Unzip the dump before running it.

Look at the unzipped dump and see if line 13935 is bad in some obvious way.

(Whatever the resolution is here might also motivate tailoring our restore/import instructions, since this error is pretty opaque and the next steps aren't obvious.)

(Internally, see also PHI1329.)

See also https://trac.wildfiregames.com/wiki/Phabricator#Downloadapatch where a tedious workaround is needed in order to apply patches to a mirror of an SVN repo that is updated once a day:

Not all of this has landed yet, but once it does:

It may be useful to provide helper methods to support normalizing these actor types (e.g., email addresses should be case-insensitive).

Yeah, this is still in a transitional state, it's just been stalled for a bit (not blocked by anything, just other stuff has been getting attention). The two major issues I'm aware of right now are:

Not sure where to report this, but since a recent upgrade at Wikimedia, the new version of the Burnup Graph (now Reports: Burndown), has a tendency to go below zero. I'm aware the old version had inaccuracies so perhaps it was happening before as well but hidden (e.g. artificially replaced with zero or something like that).

Another general note is that we also require users go through this flow if they're setting a password for the first time on an account which does not already have a password. For example, this workflow will set up the "set your own password" flow:
