[CollEc] New CollEc

[Düben, Christian]

The files meant for the ftp server are in /home/icanis/ftp/opt. The rank variable in these files handles ties with the "min" option. Assume we have four authors with closeness values of 0.5, 0.3, 0.3 and 0.2 respectively. With the "min" option their ranks are 1, 2, 2 and 4.

You mentioned that your code fixes the rsync permission problem over time. What time frame did you have in mind? It does not work yet. Do I need to add anything to the shell script?

I fixed the issues on Christian Zimmermann's list, except for the blog post which still needs another paragraph or so. The text in the Introduction tab, the Co-Authors tab, the Documentation tab and the footer is now partly different. I also added an image to the documentation on the Co-Authors tab.

Before Christian Zimmermann links any IDEAS content to the web application's entry points, we should discuss the URL. The current test.collec.repec.org was suitable during testing. But now that the app is quasi officially released, I recommend changing the name to e.g. collec2.repec.org. Until we see how well the app performs when accessed by many users at the same time we should keep the old version of CollEc in service. And keeping the old one at collec.repec.org while running the new one at collec2.repec.org appears to be a good solution. What do you think?

Could you add a placeholder HTML page at graphec.repec.org? Something like "GraphEc is currently publicly unavailable. Contact <a href="http://www.christian-dueben.com">Christian Düben</a> regarding the application's public release.". The new CollEc already links to GraphEc and I think that a placeholder page with a short informative text would look nicer than the Apache2 Debian default page.

  Just put them anywhere and let me know where they are, I will
  arrange for public rsync for you. Since, I presume, they are
  generated, they should go into a directory named 'opt' to avoid
  filling disk space at the backup servers.

> Should I add them to /mnt/helos/home/icanis/opt/ftp?

  No, that's an NFS mount of helos.

adrepec at aigtu:~$ $HOME/perl/remi_round_the_clock export REDIFDIR=/home/adrepec/RePEc/zzz ; cd /home/adrepec/perl; /home/adrepec/perl/remi2.pl -conf remi.local.conf
sh: 1: /home/adrepec/perl/remi2.pl: Permission denied

  oh that hurts!

adrepec at aigtu:~$ cd perl
adrepec at aigtu:~/perl$ chmod 755 remi2.pl adrepec at aigtu:~/perl$ $HOME/perl/remi_round_the_clock

  Should fix that one over time.
