[10:08:55 CST(-0600)] <dd__> is there any way to log you out and redirect you back to CAS?
[10:10:26 CST(-0600)] <Arvids> I believe, that no... AFAIK
[10:11:01 CST(-0600)] <Arvids> ... but that should be easy doable with custom code
[10:11:52 CST(-0600)] <dd__> hmm, ok. i'll need to look into it
[10:11:56 CST(-0600)] <athena> probably depends on whether you want to have a guest mode viewable
[10:12:16 CST(-0600)] <athena> the portal can't easily distinguish at that point between users that just arrived, and users whose sessions expired
[10:12:48 CST(-0600)] <dd__> yeah, we're not doing guest mode, sign in through CAS takes you to your portal
[10:13:30 CST(-0600)] <Arvids> It reminds me that there was a discussion on user list about this behaviour
[10:14:23 CST(-0600)] <dd__> ok, i can search around
[10:14:25 CST(-0600)] <athena> in that case, yes, i think you could configure the portal to just always redirect to CAS for login
[10:14:31 CST(-0600)] <athena> that's a pretty common use case
[10:14:37 CST(-0600)] <Arvids> indeed
[10:14:53 CST(-0600)] <dd__> ok, great
[10:15:01 CST(-0600)] <athena> incidentally, there's a uPortal community call in 15 min for anyone that's interested in attending
[10:15:17 CST(-0600)] <athena> http://www.jasig.org/news/december-2011-uportal-community-call
[10:15:24 CST(-0600)] <Arvids> another way is to implement a custom IParameterProcessor
[10:15:56 CST(-0600)] <athena> (and you can connect via skype, too)
[10:16:29 CST(-0600)] <Arvids> it should be very easy to implement one checking whether user is guest or not... and sending back redirect to a login page if user turns out to be a guest
[10:17:03 CST(-0600)] <dd__> great, thanks
[10:17:37 CST(-0600)] <dd__> that covers that then. you would happen to have any experience with resource serving webapp, would you?
[10:17:39 CST(-0600)] <Arvids> hmm... i'm looking at IParameterProcessor and there's no servlet response available
[10:17:51 CST(-0600)] <dd__> i
[10:18:21 CST(-0600)] <Arvids> very little
[10:18:22 CST(-0600)] <dd__> i'm getting a weird error when it is starting up and i was talking with Eric Dalquist about it and even he was confused
[10:18:38 CST(-0600)] <dd__> http://pastebin.com/YTacGV9N
[10:18:40 CST(-0600)] <Arvids> haven't had any errors with it
[10:18:48 CST(-0600)] <dd__> i see that error in my log when i start tomcat
[10:19:29 CST(-0600)] <dd__> seems like something is already registering the name ResourceServer.cacheManager before it can
[10:19:54 CST(-0600)] <Arvids> strange
[10:20:12 CST(-0600)] <dd__> either way, it is preventing the resources from being served to users when they log in
[10:20:19 CST(-0600)] <Arvids> now that i see the stack trace, i believe i've read your conversation with Eric
[10:23:16 CST(-0600)] <Arvids> thinking about the possible causes... but I have no other ideas that Eric haven't mentioned already
[10:24:48 CST(-0600)] <dd__> yeah, it's on the dev instance right now so if i have to i can install everything from scratch again. but i'd like to know the reason incase it comes up again
[10:25:29 CST(-0600)] <Arvids> have you tried to inspect tomcat state using JConsole?
[10:26:00 CST(-0600)] <Arvids> it does show all the configured chaches
[10:26:33 CST(-0600)] <dd__> no, never used the tool before. is it easy to get setup?
[10:26:43 CST(-0600)] <Arvids> it is trivial on local machine
[10:26:46 CST(-0600)] <Arvids> start up tomcat
[10:26:56 CST(-0600)] <Arvids> and then run "jconsole" from command line
[10:27:08 CST(-0600)] <Arvids> it will open GUI and choose the process you want to monitor
[10:27:27 CST(-0600)] <Arvids> switch to "MBeans" tab and you can then overview all exposed MBeans
[10:27:41 CST(-0600)] <Arvids> there's "net.sf.cache" directory available
[10:28:50 CST(-0600)] <Arvids> at least if ResourceServingWebapp crashes and you see a cache named "ResourceServer.cacheManager", then there's point in looking into other web applications
[10:29:33 CST(-0600)] <dd__> sounds good
[10:29:46 CST(-0600)] <dd__> gotta go, thank you for your suggestions
[10:30:00 CST(-0600)] <Arvids> you're welcome
[10:30:05 CST(-0600)] <Arvids> gotta go home, too
[12:14:09 CST(-0600)] <dd___> hello again
[12:14:16 CST(-0600)] <dd___> question about WebProxy portlet
[14:27:46 CST(-0600)] <dd__> hello
[14:28:18 CST(-0600)] <dd__> have a question about WebProxy portlet in reference to the docs here: https://wiki.jasig.org/display/PLT/WebProxy+Portlet+Installation+and+Configuration
[14:28:55 CST(-0600)] <dd__> i have it setup to authenticate with cas proxy tickets and now i'm interested in this line from the docs: "Authenticated Webproxy also provides a mechanism for passing user-specific information to the back-end application."
[14:29:13 CST(-0600)] <dd__> specifically the mechanism they are talking about
