Description

Trac ability to resolve addresses is intermittent.

This results in for example mail and ldap failing.

As a temporary fix I had added ldap.osgeo.org yesterday to the /etc/hosts to fix the login issues. I've just taken that out.

I noticed that systemd-resolve was not installed. I know bookworm uninstalls it and I think some services rely on it. Not sure how dns resolution works as download.osgeo.org also doesn't have it installed but seems to be working fine.

See: https://www.debian.org/releases/bookworm/amd64/release-notes/ch-information.en.html#systemd-resolved

I tried reinstalling it and after a couple of minutes I was able to resolve addresses again with ping. But not absolutely sure if that fixed the issue or was the right thing to d.

Mail was also broken, but after restarting postfix I saw a bunch of mail flow thru noted in the /var/log/mail.log

systemctl restart postfix

I'll leave this open if we stop getting random dns failures.

strk said we should consolidate all to use mail.osgeo.org, but the setting is still site by site. PostGIS supposedly wasn't using postfix but I saw a flood of postgis trac mails go thru. Might have been left over from before I suppose

closing this out as trac seems to be fine now.
