[11:51:28 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> EricDalquist: I wanted to get your input on something before I make the change.
[11:51:34 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> ok
[11:52:13 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> I've completed the changes for UP-3654 bundling CalendarPortlet, along with db schema creation and data import into uPortal.
[11:52:51 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> awesome
[11:52:54 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> this is using the new plugin?
[11:53:45 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> The new maven lifecycles are independent of the default lifecyles (I tried to require them to spawn a dependency upon package but it wouldn't work) to insure a change to a property file is reflected in the db-init or data-import execution. We can work around this by simply adding the lifecycle goal; e.g. mvn package db-init
[11:53:48 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> yes
[11:54:13 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> sounds good
[11:55:09 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> I ran some quick tests. If both db-init and data-import include package as a predecessor goal, the execution time is around 4 min 33 sec to do ant initdb. If I remove the package dependencies the execution time is around 62 seconds.
[11:55:26 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> yeah
[11:55:34 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> that is probably fine
[11:55:44 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> Though it is a nuisance, I think we should have dbinit invoke package (twice) just for proper dependency resolution.
[11:56:00 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> ok
[11:57:07 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> OK just wanted to verify you didn't see it as a nuisance. I don't like the idea of someone pulling down a quickstart version and waiting forever to do the build if there is marginal value in adding big chunks of time.
[11:57:30 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> yeah, at least for now I think it is ok
[11:57:38 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> this will likely take a few iterations to really get tuned
[11:57:49 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I'll see if I can take a look soonish at the changes
[11:57:58 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> this week is mostly meetings sadly 
[11:58:27 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> OK. For now I'm also not forcing maven.test.skip=true. It doesn't really make much difference. There's only one portlet doing tests (and the file is missing so it's throwing an error 
).
[11:58:58 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> ok
[11:59:19 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> Cool. Sad to hear about the meetings
[11:59:43 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> one other question. I was just starting to look at this but you may know off the top of your head.
[12:01:07 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> When you run the db-related ant commands the resulting vm attempts to use jgroups and execution generates error messages that are confusing unless you know what's going on. I was thinking during db operations the execution should not attempt to launch jgroups. Is there an easy way to disable that?
[12:01:29 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> but it should
[12:01:34 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> well
[12:01:35 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> kinda
[12:01:37 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> why?
[12:01:47 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> what if I'm doing a CLI import of data in prod
[12:01:57 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I really would like my imported data to show up immediately
[12:02:02 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> and not when the caches expire
[12:02:33 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> so what is the jgroups doing? I haven't looked into what it is caching.
[12:02:47 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> it is the cache invalidation messaging system
[12:02:55 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> so we use ehcache for caching
[12:03:18 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> and if you look in there about 70% of the caches are configured to do invalidation based replication via jgroups
[12:03:46 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> so if serverA does a "PortletDefinitionCache".put(32, portletDef) - which is kind of what hibernate does for us
[12:04:08 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> a message gets sent out via jgroups to all of the servers saying "remove key 32 from PortletDefinitionCache"
[12:04:48 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> what we should look at is hiding/improving the error message on the CLI if the jgroups_ping table is missing
[12:04:58 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> that table is how servers/instances find each other
[12:05:17 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> when a uportal instance starts it writes its network address info into that table
[12:05:42 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> allowing for the jgroups peer discovery mechanism to work without deployers having to futz with network topology BS
[12:40:11 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> Sorry I'm back. That makes sense.
[12:41:29 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> no problem
[12:41:36 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> In my case I'm not sure the issue is the UP_JGROUPS_PING table in the CLI data-import execution. I see java.lang.SecurityException: Authentication failed in the jgroups.protocols.pbcast.ClientGmsImpl.joinInternal(ClientGmsImpl.java:156) causing connecting to channel "null" failed. I don't see the CLI's member address in the table (though it may have been removed during shutdown). Is mine likely due to having both uPortal
[12:42:14 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> huh
[12:43:53 CST(-0600)] <dearbin> hi
[12:44:58 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> EricDalquist: http://pastebin.com/ydXmcH57
[12:45:30 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> May be due to line 19 - that just popped out at me
[12:45:31 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> do you have another portal instance running against the same db?
[12:45:36 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> yes
[12:45:42 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> dev machine
[12:45:51 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> are they running the same codebase?
[12:45:55 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> yes
[12:46:07 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> weird
[12:46:15 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> so try it with uPortal stopped?
[12:46:18 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> yeah
[12:46:22 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> just curious what happens
[12:48:03 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> Hey folks... what do people think about having the Directory portlet (framework portlet) request to become maximized when a user submits a search? Does it sound like a logical behavior? Or the opposite?
[12:48:19 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> seems reasonable
[12:48:45 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> it does to me too... I'm here at Manhattan where they have it in a 3-column layout
[12:49:01 CST(-0600)] <dearbin> How to enable local login in uPortal 3.2?
[12:49:11 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> and here a search often results in a horizontal scrollbar
[12:51:15 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> As a general rule to me it makes sense that any portlet that will likely display too wide for its view get maximized when the user chooses to interact with it and request information.
[12:51:46 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> FWIW
[12:53:04 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> yeah i think that's cool too
[12:58:27 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> dearbin: Can you clarify? Have you looked at https://wiki.jasig.org/display/UPM32/Add+Local+User+Accounts?
[12:59:36 CST(-0600)] <dearbin> jwennmacher: I have configured in security.properities file to use local login
[12:59:57 CST(-0600)] <dearbin> But I didnt see any login form in the uPortal home page
[13:00:36 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> Did you follow the steps similar to this page in the UP 4.0 manual? https://wiki.jasig.org/display/UPM40/Internal+Accounts.
[13:01:27 CST(-0600)] <dearbin> I use uPortal 3.2
[13:04:11 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> i'm a newbiee and not very familiar with 3.2. I think the steps should be pretty similar. You will need to deploy your code changes and import the config changes.
[13:05:24 CST(-0600)] <dearbin> thanks, but I didnt see the files and folder given in that documentation
[13:05:50 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> in uP3 some of the files are in a dir called uportal-impl
[13:05:52 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> OK. Others more knowledgeable than I will need to comment
[13:06:09 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> for uP4, uportal-impl and uportal-war were combined
[13:06:42 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> EricDalquist: When I shut down uPortal and ran ant initdb I did not get any error messages. It appears to be tied to having two instances running on the same machine.
[13:06:51 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> well
[13:06:55 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> that should work
[13:07:19 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> the two should create a jgroups group
[13:07:25 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> and cache invalidation should happen
[13:07:40 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> not sure why you're getting that error
[13:07:54 CST(-0600)] <dearbin> drewwills : Where I can see the layout file in UP3? Its not in uPortal-impl
[13:08:36 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> something like uportal-impl/src/main/resources/properties/db/entities
[13:19:11 CST(-0600)] <dearbin> I did as per the instructions there but its not working
[13:20:49 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> you changed a fragment-layout file to include the login portlet?
[13:21:05 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> and it was the guest.fragment-layout/
[13:21:09 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> ?
[13:21:49 CST(-0600)] <dearbin> yes I changed logging-in to login and ran ant deploy-war
[13:22:26 CST(-0600)] <dearbin> http://i45.tinypic.com/op7muw.png
[13:22:46 CST(-0600)] <dearbin> you can grab the look of screenshot of the change here
[13:22:54 CST(-0600)] <dearbin> Please help me out
[13:23:13 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> sure... you have to import the fragment-layout file after editing it
[13:23:42 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> the is this a local or dev deploy?
[13:24:09 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> the easiest way to import it is with $ant initdb (but that will reset the db)
[13:29:53 CST(-0600)] <dearbin> dev deploy
[13:36:58 CST(-0600)] <dearbin> again I didnt see the login portlet
[13:38:47 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> how did you import it? did you do the $ant initdb? or another method?
[13:41:00 CST(-0600)] <dearbin> just ran ant initdb
[13:41:08 CST(-0600)] <dearbin> and restarted the tomcat
