[12:07:55 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I don't believe web proxy can proxy form uploads
[12:08:03 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> well at least we've never used it that way
[12:09:40 CST(-0600)] <dd_> so it can't handle multipart forms?
[12:09:51 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I don't believe so
[12:10:04 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I don't think the logic is there to handle the streaming of the request to the backend server
[12:10:11 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> which would be required for it to work right
[12:10:24 CST(-0600)] <dd_> ah, ok
[12:10:25 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> it wouldn't really be reasonable for the portlet to buffer the entire post
[12:10:29 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> and then replay it
[12:10:36 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> and that is essentially what the portlet does with requests
[12:10:41 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> it handles the request
[12:10:48 CST(-0600)] <dd_> ok
[12:10:50 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> then replays it to the backend server
[12:11:01 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> it is likely feasible with a bunch of work in the proxy portlet codxe
[12:11:12 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> but I'd guess that it would be a few weeks of work
[12:11:40 CST(-0600)] <dd_> so is my only other option the iframe portlet?
[12:11:50 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> probably
[12:12:24 CST(-0600)] <dd_> does that have any of the cas authentication with it? would i still be able to use phpCAS?
[12:12:38 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> well it just renders an iframe
[12:12:41 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> if your portal is using cas
[12:12:45 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> and the php site is using cas
[12:12:50 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> it should sso the user
[12:12:59 CST(-0600)] <dd_> great
[13:10:50 CST(-0600)] <dd_> back with one more webproxy portlet question
[13:11:17 CST(-0600)] <dd_> i don't have caching enabled through the settings for wpp but it is being cached on the main screen
[13:11:28 CST(-0600)] <dd_> i assume this is uportal handling it?
[13:13:23 CST(-0600)] <dd_> any way to disable it for an instance of wpp?
[13:14:47 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> what sort of caching behavior are you seeing?
[13:20:55 CST(-0600)] <dd_> i update content on the page that the portlet is pointed at and i refresh and don't see the updates
[13:21:05 CST(-0600)] <dd_> unless i maximize it or sign out/sign in
[13:21:16 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> ah
[13:21:21 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> check the portlet.xml for the proxy portlet
[13:21:32 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I think the default config only refreshes the content when it is interacted with
[13:23:08 CST(-0600)] <dd_> ok
[13:23:44 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> look for an expiration-cache element
[13:23:51 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> and set it to 0
[13:23:54 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> that means never cache
[13:24:22 CST(-0600)] <dd_> is there is any way to set that per instance of the portlet?
[13:24:41 CST(-0600)] <dd_> there is one case where the default behavior is preferable
[13:25:24 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I don't think so :/
[13:25:32 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> without duplicating the portlet block in the portlet.xml
[13:25:43 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> and using different portlet names when publishing
[13:26:21 CST(-0600)] <dd_> ok, so i guess i will have to look into setting up caching
[13:26:28 CST(-0600)] <dd_> https://wiki.jasig.org/display/PLT/WebProxy+Portlet+Installation+and+Configuration#WebProxyPortletInstallationandConfiguration-Database
[13:26:35 CST(-0600)] <dd_> it mentions a create.sql file in those docs
[13:26:44 CST(-0600)] <dd_> but i can't seem to find them in the repository
[13:27:01 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I don't think the docs have been updated
[13:27:10 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I believe the portlet creates its tables automatically now
[13:27:17 CST(-0600)] <dd_> oh cool
