Koji Setup Documentation - Fedora Wiki

[Todd Edward Westacott]

Recently as part of a project at Seneca College I have been going through the process of
setting up a  complete Koji Build System to test the quality and the accuracy of the 
existing documentation on the Fedora Wiki

 
For the most part the information on the wiki is accurate and the  instructions will work
if you follow them through step by step. The  issue that I found is that the there is not
enough information which explains how the  different components work together and what
each step of the  instructions is actually doing. 


I would also like to invite anyone who is interested to review the  edits I have made to
the existing documentation on the Fedora Wiki, specifically the How To section  which
walks through setting up your own system:
 
Koji/ServerHowTo – Fedora Wiki
 
Over the next week or two I will be taking a look at the other  sections of the Koji
documentation to see what information could be  clarified as well as making an additional
changes which might come to my  attention with the Koji setup process. Please feel free to
contact me  with any information you might like to share or suggestions you might  like to
make. Your feedback would be very valuable to me and greatly  appreciated.

Hi,

Great news, when I was setting up koji it took me a while to
understand how different components fit together so more clarification
will definitely be useful for future users.

One note from me. Koji Hub section says this in "Optional
configuration" section:
ProxyDNs = "/C=US/ST=Massachusetts/O=Example Org/OU=Example
User/CN=example/emailAddress=example(a)example.com&quot;

however in my case quotes were braking SSL authentication and I had to
remove them.

+ 1. I still have difficulty in understanding it. I wish we had a better
documentation on "basics" part.

There is excellent documentation from Steve Traylen which explains what and
why KOJI is required. Ref:
http://indico.cern.ch/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=55091

I wish KOJI documentation would have been like this..
