[09:38:05 EDT(-0400)] <chrisdoyle> eric, are you using 3.0.2 as the base for your up3 upgrade at wisconsin?
[09:38:45 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> 3.1
[09:38:55 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> our current vendor branch is off 3.1.0-M1
[09:39:26 EDT(-0400)] <chrisdoyle> wow, bleeding edge – i am in the process of applying all the patches to get us to 3.0.2 – would you recommend also making the leap to 3.1.0-M1 as well?
[09:39:54 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> well ... it should be stable but I have a lot of local mods too :/
[09:40:42 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> there are some nice features such as the swapper portlets
[09:41:04 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> most of the 3.1 dev to date has been driven by the work I'm doing here to get us moved to 3
[09:41:04 EDT(-0400)] <chrisdoyle> ok...i'll wrap up the 3.0.2 patches and probably touch base once i start looking at 3.1.0 then...thought it might be good to try and get on the same page as you guys
[09:41:12 EDT(-0400)] <chrisdoyle> gotcha

[11:40:29 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.jasig.portal.tools.dbloader.HibernateDbLoader
[11:40:45 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> looks like it's coming from persistenceContext.xml?
[11:40:51 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> oh
[11:40:58 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I probably committed a change there that shouldn't be
[11:41:22 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> oh
[11:41:42 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> try editing persistenceContext.xml and commenting out the hibernatedbloader bean
[11:42:04 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> ok
[11:48:32 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> ack
[11:48:41 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> now i'm getting crn import errors
[11:48:55 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> uhg
[11:49:27 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> this is what I get for having like four local mods in my local trunk at once
[11:49:32 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> lol
[11:49:46 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> honestly I'm not sure what could be causing those
[11:49:53 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I can look into it later this afternoon
[11:50:05 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> ok, thanks
[11:50:23 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> i'm trying to get the fluid stuff updated so they can test

[13:56:30 EDT(-0400)] <awills> hey folks how does everyone feel about UP-1876: http://www.ja-sig.org/issues/browse/UP-1876
[13:56:45 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> looks really neat
[13:56:55 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> woo!
[13:57:02 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I wanted to take a look and see if there was a way to do it as a filter instead of adding more code to LoginServlet
[13:57:10 EDT(-0400)] <awills> i know we get a lot of interest in this feature from clients
[13:57:12 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> but I have no idea how feasible that would be
[13:57:36 EDT(-0400)] <chrisdoyle> sounds pretty cool, Drew!
[13:57:52 EDT(-0400)] <awills> it would be totally feasible... i struggled on that point for a bit... it's a tradeoff between login servlet vs. web.xml complexity
[13:58:00 EDT(-0400)] <awills> oh hey chris
[13:58:06 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> +1 for web.xml any day
[13:58:43 EDT(-0400)] <awills> what i think we could use is some spring-configurable login pipeline for this and other things like it
[13:58:49 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> it also lets you access Spring resources more easily as you could write your fitler as a Spring bean and use DelegatingFilterProxy
[13:58:55 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> well
[13:59:04 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> what we really need is to rm -Rf all the security code
[13:59:07 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> and replace it with acegie
[13:59:10 EDT(-0400)] <chrisdoyle> i see you are taking advantages of the permissions table again (like you did for impersonate) – cool
[13:59:13 EDT(-0400)] <awills> +1 for that
[13:59:16 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> which would give us that fitler based auth system
[13:59:50 EDT(-0400)] <awills> yeah permissions is good – last thing I'd want to do for this is invent a bunch of new primitives
[14:00:02 EDT(-0400)] <awills> that sounds great
[14:00:15 EDT(-0400)] <awills> for now, i can do it as a filter... shouldn't take long
[14:00:19 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> but that's a pretty significant ammount of work
[14:00:23 EDT(-0400)] <awills> yeah
[14:00:28 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> but yeah, I've been meaning to reply about doing it as a fitler
[14:00:43 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> then it isn't as sensitive to nuking LoginServlet someday in the future too
[14:00:54 EDT(-0400)] <awills> yeah that's no trouble... 3-0-patches and trunk/ ok?
[14:00:54 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> it is very nice code though
[14:00:57 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> yup
[14:01:02 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> both places
[14:01:07 EDT(-0400)] <awills> good deal
[14:01:09 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> we'll likely use it here
[14:02:14 EDT(-0400)] <awills> here's a suggestion i thought of – create a PAGS group for people logging in at public terminals and do a MAX_INACTIVE DENY at 5 min
[14:02:36 EDT(-0400)] <chrisdoyle> wow – that's a great idea –
[14:02:53 EDT(-0400)] <chrisdoyle> we are getting ready to use IP-based pags groups here
[14:02:58 EDT(-0400)] <awills> CO had something like that, but it was hard-coded straight through the framework & theme
[14:03:07 EDT(-0400)] <chrisdoyle> i'll be sure to pass along that idea when we get there
[14:03:22 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> nice
[14:03:32 EDT(-0400)] <awills> DENYs trump GRANTs, so they act as a ceiling
[14:04:56 EDT(-0400)] <awills> so i'm doing coopretive dev for (probably) the rest of this month, so I actually have time to run around knocking these sorts of things out, based on subscriber priorities
[14:05:08 EDT(-0400)] <awills> it's pretty nice
[14:05:59 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> coll
[14:06:00 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> cool
[14:06:21 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I think I'm going to be able to bundle up my import/export changes tomorrow night
[14:06:43 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> so I can post that for folks to start working on re-integrating back with 2.x/3.0/trunk
[14:07:06 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> ooh yay
[14:07:14 EDT(-0400)] <awills> very nice
[14:07:26 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> now if that sad postgres bug could fix itself someday i'd be all set
[14:07:34 EDT(-0400)] <awills> you think org.jasig.portal.security is a good place for the Filter impl?
[14:07:38 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> yup
[14:07:45 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> yeah athena7 I really wish I knew what was going on there
[14:07:48 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> me too
[14:07:51 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> couldn't figure it out
[14:08:08 EDT(-0400)] <awills> i looked at that a bit jen... looks like postgres wants you to code for transactions differently
[14:08:23 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> by the way eric, is it possible to have portlets as part of the uportal webapp in 3.0 or do we need to wait for 3.1?
[14:08:25 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> weird
[14:08:36 EDT(-0400)] <awills> they want you to use savepoints
[14:08:37 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> is it fixable?
[14:08:50 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> wow, really?? i use postgres all the time and i've never run across that
[14:08:52 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> athena7: you can do it in 3.0
[14:09:01 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> ok, good - is it just that we need to use tomcat 6?
[14:09:04 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> you just have to edit the portlet app path by hand
[14:09:06 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> nope
[14:09:20 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> so the 3.1 feature was adding the concept of a 'framework portlet'
[14:09:40 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> if a portlet is marked as such the portal automatically figures out the portlet app path (ex: /uPortal)
[14:09:50 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> oh! ok
[14:10:00 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> so that if you're deploying uPortal to say /portal you don't have to go muck with all of the framework portlets by hand
[14:10:15 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> that makes sense
[14:10:15 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> portlets work just find in the uPortal webapp in 2.x or 3.x
[14:10:26 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> just pre 3.1 you have to manually change that webapp path
[14:10:35 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> i filtered out that context location already i think so i won't have to manually change it
[14:10:59 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> though i would in a vanilla portal
[14:19:10 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> so it'll work ok in tomcat 5.5 too, right?
[14:19:18 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> yup
[14:19:49 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> the need for TC6 was for Servlet 2.5 which added an API that allows a servlet to determine the context path without having to have a current request object
[14:19:56 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> ok, cool
[14:33:00 EDT(-0400)] <awills> got to run an errand... i'll be back on in the afternoon
[14:33:08 EDT(-0400)] <chrisdoyle> cya
[14:36:33 EDT(-0400)] <chrisdoyle> so while i was manually modifying some of the files for our 3.0.2 upgrade today, i noticed a couple of lingering whirlycache configurations in log4j.properties:
[14:36:34 EDT(-0400)] <chrisdoyle> log4j.logger.com.whirlycott.cache=WARN, R
[14:36:50 EDT(-0400)] <chrisdoyle> shall i jira and remove?
[14:36:58 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> yup
[14:37:01 EDT(-0400)] <chrisdoyle> k
[14:38:26 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> wait
[14:38:36 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> what do you mean, you want to remove those?
[14:38:48 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> yeah
[14:38:49 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> they were added for a reason. do you know if that reason has gone away?
[14:38:49 EDT(-0400)] <chrisdoyle> for version 3, yes
[14:38:52 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> it has
[14:39:01 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> whirly cache does not exist in 3.x
[14:39:19 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> ok. but so help me, if I start seeing whilycache lines in my log again, i'm going to be very annoyed
[14:39:33 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> lol
[14:39:57 EDT(-0400)] <chrisdoyle> shouldn't see them in up3
[14:40:44 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> unless you choose to switch back to whirlycache
[14:40:52 EDT(-0400)] <chrisdoyle> lol
[14:41:18 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> you're just taunting me now.
[14:41:19 EDT(-0400)] <chrisdoyle> i can't live without my ehcache / jconsole now...love it
[14:49:26 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> whirlycache went down the whirlydrain?
[14:49:34 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> oh yeah
[14:49:46 EDT(-0400)] <athena7>
[14:49:48 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> i like ehcache
[14:49:54 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> and spring-modules-cache
[14:50:02 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist>
[14:50:21 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I'm just happy I got spring-modules-cache and jpa/hibernate using the same cachemanager
[14:50:33 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> lots more flexibility that way and easier to config
[14:50:59 EDT(-0400)] <chrisdoyle> yes, yes

[17:17:32 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> sounds more appropriate to roll the changes back in svn
[17:17:39 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> that it does
[17:17:43 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> rather then have something halfway done and/or broken
[17:17:49 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> but I don't know which change broke it
[17:17:52 EDT(-0400)] <awills> we're talking trunk right? that should be fine... we should have time to sort out loose ends on 3.1 code
[17:17:57 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I do know what I have locally works
[17:18:18 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> the problem is from me having local mods for 3 different things in one project
[17:18:22 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> and trying to commit just one of them
[17:18:28 EDT(-0400)] <awills> yes, that is confusing
[17:18:44 EDT(-0400)] * holdorph bemoans yet another thing Perforce did better then svn
[17:18:56 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> what's that? Have less stressed users?
[17:19:22 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> no, you had to explicitly 'edit' before you could change a file. And when you did, you could mark which 'changelist' the edit was for
[17:19:36 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> so you could have 3 'changelists' in one project, that were maintained separately
[17:19:41 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> ah
[17:20:09 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> what happened if one file was in two changesets?
[17:20:28 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> then you'd be "no worse off" then you are in svn
[17:20:55 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> at least when files didn't overlap, you could keep the changes next to each other, but separate
[17:21:06 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> yeah, the problem here was an overlapping file
[17:21:19 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> and I missed the other change in my compare before I made the commit
[17:21:29 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> but there is some other problem with an import script
[17:21:34 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> and I have no idea when it was introduced
[17:21:52 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> nightly builds would be very handy
[17:22:12 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> well if you dont have an easy way to roll back, then 'less broken' is better then not
[17:23:21 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> less broken would be good
[17:23:33 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> ok
[17:23:43 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I'll see if I can unbreak things before I head out tonight

[17:57:12 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> that's so excellent

[17:57:55 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> that supports something like:
[17:58:25 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> <portletPreferences><preference><name/><readonly/><values><value/><value/></values>.....
[17:58:37 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> no more use of the PORTLET. prefix

[18:00:18 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> not really wonderful

[18:23:56 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I'll post the 2.x export package as soon as I can
[18:26:03 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> i thought you said above you thought export might not be working with what you had so far, but you didn't say that in the email
[18:26:07 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> is export working?
[18:26:37 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> good catch, the export should work except for portlet preferences
[18:27:33 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> actually no
[18:27:37 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> they will work
[18:27:49 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> because export in 3.0 uses the portlet APIs directly for those
[18:27:56 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> and none of that changed
[18:28:06 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> so export should still work
[18:28:41 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> import just supports more data in the entity files than the current export writes out (namely dlm nodes and parameters in the layout)
