emily | I remember someone reporting some kind of issue with the offtopic room recently, but I don't remember the details | 09:54:10 |
emily | if you're still in the old space, maybe that's causing some kind of weird issue | 09:54:18 |
| Ramses 🇵🇸 joined the room. | 10:05:56 |
Emma [it/its] | In reply to @emilazy:matrix.org if you're still in the old space, maybe that's causing some kind of weird issue its because the canonical space listing was never changed | 11:01:01 |
Emma [it/its] | and that requires manual state fuckery... | 11:01:17 |
emily | canonical space listing? | 11:02:55 |
Emma [it/its] | basically, each room in the space has a room -> space relation besides space -> room | 11:04:24 |
Emma [it/its] | what happened in the nixos room, and presumably also the case here, is that the room -> space relation (m.space.parent state event with space id) was never updated, so the room was still pointing to the old space
to fix it, you need to set "canonical" to false in the old event, and send a new event with "canonical" set to true | 11:06:02 |
emily | I see. sounds horrible. | 11:06:20 |
Emma [it/its] | tl;dr upgrading a space doesnt touch any events in the rooms in it | 11:07:21 |
emily | I don't think I understand why a room even needs a canonical space pointer. | 11:08:11 |
Emma [it/its] | allows discovery of the space just from the room | 11:09:05 |

hexa | because /upgraderoom on the old space doesn't care | 16:03:48 |
hexa | I fault element for the broken workflow | 16:04:04 |
hexa | managing a large matrix space just isn't fun | 16:04:22 |
Emma [it/its] | element isnt involved in /upgraderoom btw | 16:19:17 |
Emma [it/its] | its actually synapse that's to blame here... | 16:20:27 |
Emma [it/its] | POST /_matrix/client/v3/rooms/{roomId}/upgrade
{
"new_version": "2"
}
| 16:21:05 |
Emma [it/its] | In reply to @hexa:lossy.network manual state fuckery do you want me to create a quick and dirty tool to automate the state fuckery? | 16:21:44 |
hexa | Feel free | 16:22:12 |
Emma [it/its] | alright, one moment please | 16:22:28 |
| Pyrox [Fox/It/She] joined the room. | 16:56:44 |
| Emma [it/its] ⚡️ joined the room. | 17:47:14 |
Emma [it/its] | hey hexa, which room id is the new space? | 17:57:30 |
Emma [it/its] | im getting very conflicting information from my server | 17:57:51 |
Emma [it/its] | !MKvhXlSTLGJUXpYuWF:nixos.org vs !brXHJeAtqliwNGqHQx:lossy.network (both of them showing up as NixOS with the blue logo on my end) | 17:59:42 |
dgrig | I get !brXHJeAtqliwNGqHQx:lossy.network from my HS for the new one | 17:59:53 |
Emma [it/its] | ah so the n.o one is the old one, got it | 18:00:09 |
Emma [it/its] | i dont exactly have a space to test on but i can check thhe basic logic | 18:01:41 |
