Server

The server roll this morning was canceled last minute. I think it was the Package on Magnum intended to roll out. The fix was to reduce problems with the system losing connection with the SL back end. But, something in the update was overloading the SL back end. So… next week… maybe.

The Lindens are unsure what they are going to do for Wednesday’s usual RC updates. The usual deploys thread is mostly useless.

From the Server-Scripting meeting we learn the Lindens are trying to get the package repaired and rolled to an RC channel tomorrow, Wednesday.

Today is Simon Linden’s 10^th Rez Day!

BUG-9666 – BUG-100487 – These were brought up in the SS UG meeting asking for new features and data.

Server

There was no roll on the main grid today. Still on version #17.06.12.327066.

There are to be rolls on the RC channels. Blue Steel and Le Tigre will get #17.06.23.327344. This is Internal Fixes and an update from 17.06.19.3272066.

Magnum will get #17.06.23.327348. This is an OS upgrade (Nothing is changing functionality-wise). There have been some problems and the Magnum update last week was rolled back. So, a new try this week.

Viewers

The main Viewer updated from 5.0.5.326444 to 5.0.6.326593. – Release Notes:

This viewer moves fetching of several types of assets to HTTP. This means that landmarks, wearables, sounds, and animations will now be fetched the same way as textures, via a direct query to CDN instead of through the simulator. This should generally make loading of such content both faster and more reliable. Twice the fetching and half the crashing with this new build.

Second Life Maintenance Viewer version 5.0.7.327250 – Is updated from last week’s version 5.0.6.327125.

Second Life Voice Viewer version 5.0.7.327253 – Is updated from last week’s version 5.0.6.326589.

Second Life Project 360 Snapshot Viewer version 5.1.0.506488 – This one also updated, from 5.1.0.505089.

Second Life Project Alex Ivy Viewer version 5.1.0.505089 – No change.

Servers

Tuesday version #17.06.12.327066 of the server software rolled to the main channel. This is primarily a fix to keep regions from losing their connection to the backend servers.

Blue Steel and Le Tigre get the same new package #17.06.19.327206. Changes are listed as ‘Internal Changes’. I suppose that is more changes to data collection. Maybe updates to the server OS.

Magnum gets version #17.06.19.327192. There is also an explicitly stated update of the OS for this channel. Plus, a couple of fixes.

• BUG-100830 HTTP_CUSTOM_HEADER no longer works on RC 17.06.13.327111
• BUG-100831 Lelutka Simone bento head spits a script error when attached on 17.06.13.327111 regions (Magnum & Cake)

Bug-100830 is the Song Board fix. If you didn’t read the previous article, be warned your song boards are not going to start working.
