#3411 RFR: resouces to host blocker bug tracking application
Closed: Fixed None Opened 11 years ago by tflink.

QA has a new blocker tracking application that we'd like to have hosted in the Fedora infrastructure. The application is still young and has not yet been packaged or gone through a security audit.

The app is written in python with Flask 0.9 and will likely be using pgsql for a database. I haven't put any code up publicly yet but will be in the next week.

After talking to nirik on IRC, it sounds like a small dev VM would work for this purpose.

  • requested hostname: qa01.dev
  • requested public domain: blockerbugs.qa.fedoraproject.org
  • requested port forwarding: 80, 443

Fedora Account System username:
* tflink

Community or group association (if any):
* Fedora QA

Hosting type:
* dev VM

Space requirements for the next 6 months:
* 10GB free space beyond OS

Space requirements for the next 2 years:
* At most 20G free space beyond OS

Bandwidth Estimates (if known):
* Unclear, the app will sync with bugzilla on a regular basis and it's unknown how many people will use the application

Why should Fedora host this project?
* Because blocker tracking is used as part of the Fedora release process

What benefits does it have directly for Fedora?
* Tracking blockers helps QA to keep up with important and potentially release blocking issues

What benefits does it have directly for the greater Open Source universe?
* The benefits are pretty limited to Fedora because it gets into our processes for release

Is this to be associated directly with a Fedora SIG or just something nice Fedora should do for another community?
* Yes, directly used by Fedora QA

What happens to your project if this request gets denied?
* We'll find somewhere else to host the app - probably !OpenShift.


I clicked the "submit" button a little too fast. One revision to the request:
* requested public hostname: bugs.qa.fedoraproject.org

The qa.fedoraproject.org domain isn't a publicly resolvable one currently, so that's not going to work.

Otherwise, I have setup a qa01.dev.fedoraproject.org instance for this.

I'll be happy to work with you on getting this resource up and running.

Blockerbugs is up and in production now. ;)
