This especially annoyed me whenver I was doing nixos-rebuild switch and getting
logged out on all consoles. With this there now is services.mingetty.dontRestart
for heavy VT users to deactivate this behaviour.
The option is disabled by default so that previously existing installations
aren't affected.
If you'd like to migrate to the fixed numeric id for Apache, set "fixUidAndGid
= true", edit the file "/etc/groups" and replace the old GID value with 54.
(NixOS can't do that for you because it refuses to change a GID that identifies
the primary group of a user.) Then run
find / -xdev -uid $oldUID -exec chown 54 {} +
find / -xdev -gid $oldGID -exec chgrp 54 {} +
to update ownership of all files that are supposed to be owned by Apache.
- The new option 'apacheHttpd' determines the version of the Apache
HTTP Server that's being used by this module. The default version
is Apache 2.2.x, as before.
- The new option 'configFile' allows users specify their own custom
config file for the web server instead of being limited to the one
that this module generates.
Ugly hack to get around the error "a string that refers to a store
path cannot be appended to a path". The underlying problem is that
you cannot do
"${./file1} ${./file2}"
but you can do
" ${./file1} ${./file2}"
Obviously we should allow the first case as well.
This allows hiding the implementation details for how to represent logstash
config types that don't directly map to nix expressions, particularly floats,
hashes, and name-value pair sets with repeated names. Instead of setting
__type and value directly, the user now uses these convenience functions to
generate their logstash config.
Since the logstash config file seemed very similar to a nixexpr, I decided
to map directly from nixexprs to logstash configs. I didn't realize until
too far in that this solution was probably way over-engineered, but it
works.
The new option ‘skins’ allows specifying a list of directories
providing skins to be added to the MediaWiki installation. The
‘defaultSkin’ option just sets the default.
