Tim Abbott 26bafa2e73 docs: Fix versions in stretch=>buster documentation. 2020-07-22 16:35:05 -07:00
Alex Vandiver 6c27f07c1d puppet: Move PostgreSQL backups to their own class.
wal-g was used in `puppet/zulip` by env-wal-g, but only installed in
`puppet/zulip_ops`.

Merge all of the dependencies of doing backups using wal-g (wal-g
installation, the pg_backup_and_purge job, the nagios plugin that
verifies it happens) into a common base class in `puppet/zulip`, since
it is generally useful.

Mateusz Mandera c231d88d9f upgrade: Add management command to fix FTS indexes.
Upgrading the base OS's dictionary files can corrupt our FTS
indexes. We add a command for fixing them.

Fixes #14982.

Alex Vandiver 0d7dbd1b07 puppet: Apply basic PostgreSQL configuration before pg_upgradecluster.
Running `pg-upgradecluster` runs the `CREATE TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY`
and `CREATE TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION` from
`zerver/migrations/0001_initial.py` on the new PostgreSQL cluster;
this requires that the stopwords file and dictionary exist _prior_
to `pg_upgradecluster` being run.

This causes a minor dependency conflict -- we do not wish to duplicate
the functionality from `zulip::postgres_appdb_base` which configures
those files, but installing all of `zulip::postgres_appdb_tuned` will
attempt to restart PostgreSQL -- which has not configured the cluster
for the new version yet.

In order to split out configuration of the prerequisites for the
application database, and the steps required to run it, we need to be
able to apply only part of the puppet configuration.  Use the
newly-added `--config` argument to provide a more limited `zulip.conf`
which only applies `zulip::postgres_appdb_base` to the new version of
Postgres, creating the required tsearch data files.

This also preserves the property that a failure at any point prior to
the `pg_upgradecluster` is easily recoverable, by re-running
`zulip-puppet-apply`.

arpit551 294510c68a docs: Update documentation for Bionic to Focal upgrade.
Added -d Flag in do-release-upgrade for Bionic to Focal upgrade.
The -d switch is necessary to upgrade from Ubuntu 18.04 LTS

Alex Vandiver da03761871 docs: Clarify that earlier distro upgrades cannot be done with 3.0.
As alluded to in the previous commit, only 3.0 can use the new tooling

Alex Vandiver f642c7c568 docs: Update Bionic -> Focal database upgrade steps for db tool.
Update the upgrade documentation for the tool added in the previous

installation.

Tim Abbott e46bbf18eb docs: Change next planned major release to 3.0.
After some discussion, everyone seems to agree that 3.0 is the more
appropriate version number for our next major release.  This updates
our documentation to reflect that we'll be using 3.0 as our next major
release.

Alex Vandiver 31f1f10501 installer: Halt if wrong version of PostgreSQL is already installed.
49a7a66004 and immediately previous commits began installing
PostgreSQL 12 from their apt repository.  On machines which already
have the distribution-provided version of PostgreSQL installed,
however, this leads to failure to apply puppet when restarting
PostgreSQL 12, as both attempt to claim the same port.

During installation, if we will be installing PostgreSQL, look for
other versions than what we will install, and abort if they are
found.  This is safer than attempting to automatically uninstall or
reconfigure existing databases.

Alex Vandiver 58cb7cecd8 installer: Remove `--remote-postgres`, redundant with `--no-init-db`.
The previous commit removed the only behavior difference between the
two flags; both of them skip user/database creation, and the tables
therein.

Of the two options `--no-init-db` is more explicit as to what it does,
as opposed to just one facet of when it might be used; remove
`--remote-postgres`.

Greg Price baa09f0518 docs: Clarify instructions on setting up email for Apple auth.

Greg Price 71c995d50d docs: Explain a bit more explicitly how to configure Apple auth.
In particular the Services ID and Bundle ID each have one of Apple's
random-looking 10-character identifiers, in addition to the Java-style
names the admin chooses.  Best to be clear about what names are
supposed to be the chosen names and which are supposed to be the
random-looking assigned names.

(I don't know of any docs elsewhere making this clear -- but I guessed
it'd be this way, and empirically it works.)

Also mention you need to enable the backend. :-)

Greg Price 0021dfe8e7 auth settings: Put Apple "Team ID" before the things it namespaces.
I believe the Bundle ID (aka App ID) and Services ID have meaning only
relative to a specific Team ID.  In particular, in some places in the
developer.apple.com UI, they're displayed in a fully-qualified form
like "ABCDE12345.com.example.app", where "com.example.app" is the
App ID or Services ID and ABCDE12345 is the Team ID.

Greg Price 9b620dfe6c docs: Break up a long sentence in Apple auth instructions.

Brainrecursion 30eaed0378 saml: Add option to restrict subdomain access based on SAML attributes.
Adds the ability to set a SAML attribute which contains a
list of subdomains the user is allowed to access. This allows a Zulip
server with multiple organizations to filter using SAML attributes
which organization each user can access.

Cleaned up and adapted by Mateusz Mandera to fit our conventions and
needs more.

Tim Abbott 077c741ef4 docs: Simplify reviewing upgrade notes before upgrading.
This adds a convenient way to review the upgrade notes for all Zulip
releases that one is upgrading across.

I thought about moving all the upgrade notes to a common section, but
in some cases the language is clearly explaining changes in the
release that are not duplicated elsewhere, and I think it reads better
having them inline alongisde related changes.

Anders Kaseorg 62f1a9da26 docs: Use Mozilla recommended SSL settings for Apache.

• Provide an explicit cipher suite list (Mozilla intermediate config

• Respect the browser’s preferred cipher suite ordering over the
  server’s.
• Use FFDHE2048 Diffie-Hellman parameters.
• Disable SSL session tickets.

(SSL stapling is also recommended but SSLStaplingCache cannot be
configured inside a <VirtualHost> block.)

Dinesh dc90d54b08 auth: Add Sign in with Apple support.
This implementation overrides some of PSA's internal backend
functions to handle `state` value with redis as the standard
way doesn't work because of apple sending required details
in the form of POST request.

Includes a mixin test class that'll be useful for testing
Native auth flow.

Thanks to Mateusz Mandera for the idea of using redis and
other important work on this.

This reimplements our Zoom video call integration to use an OAuth
application.  In addition to providing a cleaner setup experience,
especially on zulipchat.com where the server administrators can have
done the app registration already, it also fixes the limitation of the
previous integration that it could only have one call active at a time
when set up with typical Zoom API keys.

Tim Abbott 1219a2e854 docs: Deprecate support for Xenial and Stretch.
Also make sure our documentation for upgrading is reasonable for
Stretch => Buster.

Our reasoning for deprecating support for these releases is as follows:

* Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial reached desktop EOL last year; and will reach
  EOL on the server in about a year.

* Debian Stretch will each EOL in 2020 (the precise date is unclear in
  Debian's documentation, but based on past precedent it's in the next
  few months, perhaps July 2020).
  https://wiki.debian.org/DebianReleases#Production_Releases

* Both Ubuntu 16.04 and Debian Stretch use Python 3.5 as the system
  Python, which will reach EOL in September 2020 (and we're already
  seeing various third-party dependencies that we use drop support for
  them).

* While there is LTS support for these older releases, it's not clear it's
  going to be worth the added engineering effort for us to maintain EOL
  releases of the base OSes that we support.

* We (now) have clear upgrade instructions for moving to Debian Buster
  and Ubuntu 18.04.
