[Cloud] Re: Errors accessing QRank

Thank you, Bryan!

> asking for the now unused qrank Cloud VPS project to be deleted

Oh, there's no need anymore for a dummy Cloud VPS project when a Toolforge
project
(such as qrank) uses object storage? The Wikitech user guide

still
says so.

I'm really happy to hear that you found Toolforge to be a good fit for
your project and not an I/O challenge as you once feared.

> What would have been a good way to reach out to you and other users?

As Daniel Zahn mentioned in his reply, a redirect from the old url to
the new one is a good way to handle this. I run the redirects Cloud
VPS project [0][1] as a convenience for doing this sort of thing for
various projects that started in a Cloud VPS project that have now
moved to Toolforge or WMF production.

I peeked into your Cloud VPS project and found that all of the
instances have been deleted, so I decided to proactively setup a
redirect for you. https://qrank.wmcloud.org/ will now redirect folks
to your active service at https://qrank.toolforge.org/.

When you are thinking about it, you could file a task on the Cloud VPS
project-requests workboard linked to your original project creation
request [3] asking for the now unused qrank Cloud VPS project to be
deleted. No big deal if you don't, but it will save you from nag
emails in the future asking you if you are still using the project. :)

Hi,

I am experiencing very slow https file transfer from the instance 
mediawiki2latex in the project collection-alt-renderer to my local 
computer in Germany. Transfers from upload.wikimedia.org to my local 
computer still work quite fast. I already rebooted the instance but it 
didn't help. Has anyone got an idea what is going wrong?


Yours Dirk
