https://lists.osgeo.org admin Web interface for managing Mailman also enabled LetsEncypt

MySQL server

TODO: review

  • used for GRASS GIS Wiki (maintained by Martin Landa and Markus Neteler)

* used for GRASS CMS and GRASS Wiki ? </devl> now on grass on osgeo7 and grass-wiki on osgeo3

  • backed up via bacula in BackupOg6 job (see /osgeo/backup)
  • admin user credentials found in ~root/.my.cnf

SSL certificates

  • LetsEncrypt was configured by Jeff McKenna on 2018-07-27 for mapserver.org, gdal.org, grass.osgeo.org, grasswiki.osgeo.org, drone.osgeo.org, and lists.osgeo.org using certbot-auto
    • careful: check the conf files in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/ to make sure that the VirtualHost settings do not include something like <VirtualHost _default_:443> and instead should point to the IP such as <VirtualHost 140.211.15.3:443> or else the certificate loaded will always default to mapserver.org
    • certbot-auto lives in /usr/local/sbin.
    • to add more sites, run the command:

      certbot-auto --apache -d mapserver.org -d www.mapserver.org

    • a cronjob (certbot-auto renew) was created to check for renewal twice a day
    • also enabled for geos.osgeo.org on by Jeff McKenna on 2018-10-01

Backup strategy

See SAC:Backups for general info about backup strategies for containers.

A dump of each mysql database is also stored as a separate file under /osgeo (created during the backup phase).
