    Nightly Snapshot or "Bleeding Edge" - Download

    Hello Zabbix-Team,

    I was really astonished how fast Alexei and the Zabbix team respond to forum posts and how fast a mentioned bug was fixed. That's really great, especially for an open source product :-) Thank you!

    Unfortunatelly I have to wait until the next release of the beta version to use the fixed things. Are you planning (or willing) to make some kind of nigthly cvs snapshot available for us? That way we could go on testing the latest "beta-unstable" version of Zabbix and people would probably not post a missing feature or bug twice ...

    hi,

    a public accessible SVN repository would be so great. It would be quite
    handy for me watching the changes for upcoming relases in order to
    foresee in what way i have to change the debian packages.

    Also, it would make it possible to add fixes to the packages faster and
    easier (having seperate patches for the issues ..etc).

    Tarballs might work too, but then i would have to diff all changes by my
    self (and connect them with the bugs) which is a time consuming and
    an annoying task to do

    Another way would be to have a mailinglist which announces the SVN
    commits (with svnmailer) which people could subscibe to in order to see
    the changes (if you guys don't want the SVN repository to be public for
    security reasons or whatever).

      hi guys,

      any opinion on this? It would be really helpful for us. For example: were near
      the etch release and still have issues with restarting the agent on logrotate
      etc. It would be great if we could at least have a watch at the patches for
      upcoming 1.1.5 and/or backport them to 1.1.4 .. and the like.

        Please be patient Public SVN access will be restored as soon as we finish process of improving our internet connectivity and firewall. It can take about two weeks.

                It was available since March or April.

                  I managed to find this thread from another: http://www.zabbix.com/forum/showthre...ght=subversion

                  I'm finding quite a few posts by Alexei that there IS a public svn (subversion) server with devel code, but none stating it's been deprecated or is down.

                  It's still not clear to me what's going on, since svn.zabbix.com is down, and the CVS from the sourceforge.net site is archaic. Where is current development hosted and available? Perhaps someone could post a sticky in the form citing this, since it's not readily evident, there seems to be plenty of out-of-date info, and not possible to search for 'svn' or 'cvs' in the forums.



                  Thanks!

                    svn.zabbix.com

                    Actually svn.zabbix.com works fine, around later in the afternoon (Central European Time) I saw downtimes of zabbix.com fairly often since I use the svn.

                    So just be patient and try it again after some time.

                      Just to be clear about this: There isn't a branch for 1.4.x and one for main development? It would be nice to have a dedicated branch for 1.4 bugfixes -- upgrading to bleeding edge isn't a good option for a running system.

                      Edit:
                      OK, I should've checked... There's indeed a 1.4 branch -- and a 1.4.j branch. And they appear updated. But what's the difference?

                        1.4 is the actual 1.4 branch (previously it was a bit awkward, now it conforms to normal svn practices).

                        as for .j, i haven't bothered to check much, but it looks like semi-internal testing branch where stuff is coming from into 1.4 and trunk now and then

                          That's what I figured, I'm now using the 1.4 branch. Thanks!

                            I was just poking around.
                            Looks like 1.4.j is the Zabicom version. The J is probably for Japanese.
