The ltv account fails to authenticate from the VPS specifically
(works fine from Rocky with the same credentials, network path to
ftp.meteo.lv:21 confirmed fine from the VPS too) — narrowed to either
a password transcription error in .env.staging or LVGMC IP-allowlisting
the account, neither confirmable without inspecting the password.
Caught via the overnight watch this was set up for rather than
assumed safe; reverted ENABLE_LVGMC_FTP_JOBS to false on the VPS
immediately once the failure was confirmed real, restoring stable
operation. FTP stays enabled on Rocky, where it works.
deploy/vps/compose.yml hardcoded LVGMC_USER/PASSWORD/URL to inert
placeholder strings directly in the file, unlike POSTGRES_* which
already read from .env.staging — so simply adding real values to
.env.staging would have had no effect. Switched to the same
${VAR} substitution pattern, and enabled ENABLE_LVGMC_FTP_JOBS now
that real credentials exist. HARMONIE stays on placeholders pending
real DMI credentials.
Real LVGMC FTP credentials arrived today; real DMI HARMONIE
credentials haven't. The combined flag would have enabled both the
moment FTP's were ready, crash-looping the app on HARMONIE's still-
placeholder values via parMapN — caught this before it happened
(the Grib job was ~15 min from its first scheduled run). Split into
ENABLE_LVGMC_FTP_JOBS and ENABLE_HARMONIE_JOBS so each provider can
be enabled independently as its own credentials become real.
Flips ENABLE_SCHEDULED_JOBS on for the VPS release: the open-data
station and water-temperature paths are proven safe on Rocky.
ENABLE_LEGACY_PROVIDER_JOBS stays off pending real FTP/HARMONIE
credentials.
Confirmed via git history it's not a separate vendor: the very first
commit (2023-04-13) included real sample CSVs from it with a Latvian
header identical to the LVGMC/open-data fields — same underlying LVĢMC
data, just an earlier delivery mechanism superseded by the FTP feed and
never removed. Never wired into anything that runs (Server.scala's
import was already commented out).
