Continuous integration seems to have stopped for the screen, not the PDF contents

Closed this issue · 1 comments

Hi Scott,

I think that because of an UTF-8 encoding issue (which I have already resolved) the CI robot (Jenkins/Hudson/Bamboo/Other brands are available) might have stopped and hasn't restarted. I still see that a quite old version of the repo is used in the transformation to PDF.

Could you check why the transformations seem to have stopped and see if you can start it up again?

I haven't had any signal that the transformation has halted, so I couldn't react earlier.

Thanks for the effort.

Kind regards,

Cor

EDIT:
It seems that the issue is a bit more strange: the information shown on http://git-scm.com/book/nl/v2 does not equal the information shown when clicking on the pdf-link. The PDF is actually up to date with the latest contents of the repository, whereas the screen still shows something from the past.

I hope this addition helps in the resolving of the issue.

EDIT 2:
On https://progit.org/translations/lang/nl multiple check-ins are reported to be building, some of them seem to be running for more than 15 days, which is a bit long in my view.

My guesstimate is that this has to do with the encoding problem that seems to be a recurring event on my environment. I have tried to keep the encoding on ISO8859-1, however there seem to be conflicting characters (true UTF-8??) in various files in the original English version and sometimes my translated files seem to spontaneously change from ISO8859-1 to UTF-8. The latter may have to do with the editor I'm using, and I'm keeping a close eye on that and will keep you posted on this.

EDIT 3:
I have found the culprits in the text and have reverted everything back to UTF-8, and the Atlas builds seem to run fine now, the PDFs, e-pub, mobi and presumably the html version of the site are generated with this latest version. The site on http://git-scm.com/book/nl/v2 however is still showing a (very) earlier version of the html, in which not all pages are translated. How can this be?

I'm not sure whether you've managed to do something about this situation, but the HTML of the book is now showing the latest/more correct contents. I'm closing the issue now.
Thanks if you did something, excuses for harassing if you didn't.
