Repairing shows where external files have been lost
A number of HPR shows have "external" files. These are things like pictures, videos, example scripts and configuration files. During the move to the current static site these were not copied over, and the shows on the HPR server have been incomplete since then (the Internet Archive versions are complete however).
A process to "repair" these shows has been started. It relies on the fact that there are copies of the lost files on the Internet Archive, and on a backup disk. These are being copied across to the HPR server and linked into shows again.
We are restoring the missing parts of shows one at a time. The process is largely automated, but there is still a manual component. We are gradually fully automating it as time allows.
We will document the progress here.
This is the current repair state:
+------------+------------+--------------+------------------+
| date | repairable | repair_count | unrepaired_count |
+------------+------------+--------------+------------------+
| 2024-08-01 | 352 | 148 | 204 |
