[ogsa-dai-committers] SourceForge TRACs or blogs

[Mike J. <mic...@ep...>]

Hi folks,

SourceForge are ending their support for "hosted apps" which includes TRAC 
and Wordpress on September 1st. After that date, SourceForge projects have 
to run these in their own project spaces on SourceForge, rather than 
SourceForge doing it centrally. Wordpress has already been halted (so the 
OGSA-DAI blog has vanished, for example).

http://sourceforge.net/blog/hosted-apps-retirement/

I've followed their instructions at,

https://sourceforge.net/p/forge/community-docs/Migrating%20WP%20from%20Hosted%20Apps/

and migrated the blog

http://ogsa-dai.sourceforge.net/blog

but as I followed a few false paths (SF's instructions were incomplete)
I'll do it again to understand what's required. Wordpress is saved as an 
SQL dump so nothing will be lost. One issue is with images and 
attachments, for which SF's backup mechanism has failed at some point 
(there's 3 tickets been raised with them on this in the past few days - 
one is from me!)

cheers,
mike
