Been a bit too busy for updates, but the site is now live on the replacement servers. Today’s work:
- ✓ migrated the Roll of Honour location code which parses the pages for individuals to extract location data, etc
- ✓ migrated the Omeka code so that multimedia updates now sync with the replacement servers
Also just spotted a newspaper reference to “104 Acre Top” which isn’t marked on the c1960 OS sheet (the first to show house numbers) so I think 104 would have been one of the small cluster of properties that once stood on the corner on the other side from the Conservative Club: https://maps.app.goo.gl/Ac7T9JJmLfMumrrv6
“Acre Top” is a name I’ve come across but not been able to pinpoint.
The Queen Inn was reportedly at Acre Top and there are also references to Acre Top in the Manor of Golcar: Copy of the Award Made in the Year 1823.
There’s a newspaper reference in 1877 to a footpath running from Acre Top to Ley Moor which is now marked on Google Maps as “Golcar Lilly Way”, so that seem to place it in the vicinity of Acre House. There’s a property just to the west of Acre House which is shown on old maps as being divided into 4 households (2×2 layout), so possibly those were the small cottages?
Ofcom have started to publish Online Safety Act advice for small community sites, so I’ll digest that and decide what changes to the site are required.
Details of the move to MediaWiki 1.43 can be found here:
The replacement remote replication database server is now running. A change to the previous setup is that this server is used for the ElasticSearch/CirrusSearch full reindex which now happens daily at 2:30am (which means there’s no load on the live database & Redis servers).
Both of the new replacement MediaWiki servers (PHP-FPM and Apache/ModPerl API) are up & running and are currently being tested.
There’s still quite a bit of work to do in the background, so realistically I’m not expecting to do the final switchover to the new servers until later on in February. Until then, the live site remains “read only”.
The live site (running on MW 1.35) is now set to “read only” so no further edits can be made.
The replacement servers are currently being configured and deployed. Unfortunately the MW 1.43 update script initially failed (due to issues with database schema changes that are incompatible with Galera’s strict primary key enforcement) so I had to adjust some of the SQL changes by hand. The update script now appears to have completed successfully:
