problem registrar EPP connection - timeout - ERROR: socket.sslerror: _ssl.c:477

by Dr P Nyirenda

One of our registrars is facing a problem making an EPP connection to our .mw registry running FRED. The connection sometimes succeeds and sometime it fails with "ERROR: socket.sslerror: _ssl.c:477" - on a random on-and-off scenario that seems rather random, we cannot tell when it will fail or succeed. After many observations, I requested the registrar to install fred-client so that I can also test the connection from their end. Sessions look like the ones copied here below where one session was successful to conned and the other one failed. I have looked at this in detail and I need help to check what is really going on. I have now done a TCPDUMP of these connections and the result is copied as here attached, one for a successful connection and one for a failed connection. You will see that in the failed connection TCPDUMP shows that the fred-client on 88.208.201.35 was talking to the FRED server on 196.45.190.7 but the fred-client appears to stop listening even though the FRED server makes a few more attempts to the fred-client. The registrar is experiencing the same for their own client, it sometimes connects successfully and sometimes fails with no predictable pattern. My logs including those on DAPHNE show that most other registrars are connecting ok with no such problems. Can you help check what the problem could be with this one registrar? Is there another log that I can check to see what exactly is causing these connections to fail?

SDNP 2nd .MW Registrars Training Workshop on 24 April 2018 at the Raylls Protea Hotel, Blantyre, Malawi

by Dr P Nyirenda

As you can see here below, in a few weeks we will be running our 2nd workshop for registrars and I am looking for ideas on how to grow our community of registrars. The few registrars that we have so far are having a tough time developing a registrar platform for EPP connections to FRED registry. So, I would like to learn from you on how you have grown your registrars, especially on assisting them technically to do EPP connections. Do you have any comments on our workshop agenda? Do you have a portal for registrars? Do you give them fred-client? Is there a registrar that has developed their own EPP client to connect to FRED and who is willing to share development or source for such a client? Please educate me ! We would be delighted if you could come to Malawi for the one day workshop? Regards, Paulos 2nd WORKSHOP ON .MW DOMAIN REGISTRARS SDNP, the .mw domains registry operator, will run the 2nd .MW Registrars Training Workshop on 24 April 2018 at the Raylls Protea Hotel, Blantyre, Malawi.

gTLD list to be inserted into FRED registry - .ruhr

by Dr P Nyirenda

. Is there a recommended new gTLD list recommended to be inserted into the FRED registry TLD database table? We at the .mw registry are now receiving regular requests for new gTLDs to be included into the FRED registry especially for DNS servers for nssets. The latest of these is .ruhr. We would hence like to find out if there is a list of new gTLDs that we can insert in the FRED registry data base to take care of these requests instead of having to do this on request when a registrar fails to include a DNS server into an nsset. How are the other FRED registry platform users handling this ?

Re: fred-users Digest, Vol 83, Issue 1

Hi Doc, We usually pull a latest list of TLD from IANA http://data.iana.org/TLD/tlds-alpha-by-domain.txt You can write a script to compare what you have in registry with the list above.

Hello! I'm experiencing some difficulties with my Daphne web application on my new FRED server. All the Fred-* services are running including Fred-webadmin, fred-client also works well I can create objects. But after logging into Daphne I encounter the following error: Error: CORBA object could not be found!

Any ideas on a workaround on this? Thank you. Regards, Moeketsi Maphoi

FRED-Whois - Contact cause Internal Error

by Moeketsi Maphoi

Hello! I am having problems with my newly installed fred-whois server on Ubunu Server 16.04. What is happening is that the whois webpage can display all attributes as needed (after searching for a domain), when I click on attribute links like registrar ID they appear fine. The problem comes when I want to view or click on the contact attribute, it gives out the error code 500 Internal Server Error. This error only occurs when I want to view details about the contact attached to the domain, either be an administrative contact or technical contact. Apache error log show the following (searched for domain.domain, then click on the administrative contact): .mod_wsgi (pid=27416): Exception occurred processing WSGI script '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/fred_whois/whois_wsgi.py'., referer: http:// localhost /whois/?d=domain.domain .Traceback (most recent call last):, referer: http://localhost/whois/?d=domain.domain .File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/beaker/middleware.py", line 155, in __call__, referer: http:// localhost /whois/?d=domain.domain .return self.wrap_app(environ, session_start_response), referer: http:// localhost /whois/?d=domain.domain .File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/fred_whois/whois_wsgi.py", line 145, in application, referer: http:// localhost /whois/?d=domain.domain .links={'registrars_list': '/whois/registrars'}, referer: http:// localhost /whois/?d= domain.domain .File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/fred_whois/whois.py", line 1199, in render, referer: http:// localhost /whois/?d= domain.domain .answer['is_site_nic'] = settings.SITE_DIR_NAME == "nic", referer: http:// localhost /whois/?d= domain.domain .File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/conf/__init__.py", line 54, in __getattr__, referer: http:// localhost /whois/?d= domain.domain .self._setup(name), referer: http:// localhost /whois/?d= domain.domain .File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/conf/__init__.py", line 47, in _setup, referer: http:// localhost /whois/?d= domain.domain .% (desc, ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE)), referer: http:// localhost /whois/?d= domain.domain .ImproperlyConfigured: Requested setting SITE_DIR_NAME, but settings are not configured.
