Jappix

@rsertelon no blog post is planned. The core team is switching to other endeavors. The project is still available for community maintenance.

@Arkanix over capacity. Thanks

Service maintenance finished. We did some configuration changes to prevent further DDoS attacks.

End-to-end encryption is coming to Jappix! We chose to implement OMEMO (standard) - rather than the most common OTR. conversations.im/omemo/

No more packet loss are observed. We'll see how this stabilizes. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Ongoing packet loss issue. Happening again. It seems to be linked to our hosting provider network. Checking w/ them to resolve the issue.

Our server is dropping packets for whatever reason. Server restarted, services back online.

Measures to counteract the attack are being discussed on the XMPP mailing lists.

The XMPP network is being targeted by a large-scale Spam attack. Please ignore any spammy message you receive from strange/random users.

@disparaitreici quand le service plante, le worker NGINX incriminé redémarre tout seul, nous n'avons pas d'action manuelle à faire.

@disparaitreici on est au courant, la résolution du côté de NGINX avance, ils étudient nos core dumps (la partie incriminée).

@disparaitreici oui, le service XMPP n'est pas affecté quand on l'utilise directement. Côté NGINX, ils ont l'air réactif, ça durera pas lgt.

@disparaitreici on a un soucis avec NGINX, c'est une erreur qui arrive par moments, raison obscure, on a reporté le bug, ils sont dessus.

@disparaitreici not for us - what is your issue exactly? Which service? (XMPP/Web/both?)

Our Web servers are encountering issues sporadically, due to a bug in the bleeding edge version of NGINX we are using. Waiting for a hotfix.

Restarting our services to do some maintenance.

We upgraded our Web server to NGINX v1.9. HTTP/2 is now enabled n the service. Enjoy the upgrade :)

We regenerated our TLS keys to the same strongness as before (4096 RSA + ECDHE w/ 4096 DHPARAM). You may get XMPP cert change warnings.

@starseerdrgn it is, indeed. We have been DOS-ed during the night. Working on fixing that.

@simounet bonjour Simon, envoyez un mail à valerian@jappix.com avec votre adresse XMPP + infos prouvant votre identité (preuve c'est vous)
