[11:12:56 CDT(-0500)] * Topic is 'http://uportal.pastebin.com/ - http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/UPC/uportal+IRC+Logs' set by EricDalquist on 11:32:13 CST(-0600)
[11:13:07 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> it apparently decided it disconnect a few days ago
[11:13:09 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> weird
[11:13:51 CDT(-0500)] <jessm> thanks a billion EricDalquist!
[11:13:55 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yup
[11:14:10 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> I need to figure out why it decides to quit the server randomly
[11:14:10 CDT(-0500)] <athena> silly logbot
[11:14:13 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> it was still running
[11:14:16 CDT(-0500)] <athena> maybe it gets bored
[11:14:18 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> just not connected to anything
[11:14:19 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> lol
[11:14:20 CDT(-0500)] * athena tries to entertain the bot
[11:14:25 CDT(-0500)] * athena does cartwheels
[11:14:39 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> someone needs to add chatbot AI to our logbot 
[11:15:12 CDT(-0500)] <jessm> i thought it used to reply to my messages – it would be fun if it just insulted us!
[11:15:21 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> lol
[11:16:55 CDT(-0500)] <athena> yeah i've been in some channels where they trained it to say things
[11:17:01 CDT(-0500)] <athena> mostly quoting from LOTR, it hink
[11:25:26 CDT(-0500)] <Bananobot> I'm trying to install uPortal from source. It says the build was successful, but when I actually go to start the service, it says it can't load org.apache.log4j.spi.NOPLoggerRepository. I'm on Ubuntu 10.04 and can see that the liblog4j1.2-java package is installed, and /var/lib/tomcat6/webapps/uPortal/WEB-INF/lib/log4j-1.2.15.jar also exists.
[11:27:04 CDT(-0500)] <athena> are you using the tomcat instance provided by ubuntu or one you manually installed?
[11:27:11 CDT(-0500)] <Bananobot> Provided by Ubuntu
[11:27:30 CDT(-0500)] <athena> i'd probably recommend installing a fresh download of tomcat from the apache site
[11:27:45 CDT(-0500)] <athena> they may have made some modifications
[11:27:51 CDT(-0500)] <Bananobot> I'd prefer to stay with Ubuntu's repositories so I can take advantage of automatic updates
[11:28:02 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> it is likely from one of the portlets
[11:28:16 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> uPortal deploys a bunch of portlet apps
[11:28:34 CDT(-0500)] <athena> i don't personally develop on linux, but most of the sysadmins i've worked with try not to use the linux-packaged tomcat instances - i'm not sure you actually want it to update automatically
[11:28:42 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> and one of them could potentially have a bad log4j config
[11:28:58 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> which context was tomcat starting when that message is logged
[11:32:34 CDT(-0500)] <Bananobot> Hm.. it was pluto-testsuite
[11:32:39 CDT(-0500)] <Bananobot> So maybe that wasn't related
[11:32:47 CDT(-0500)] <Bananobot> At any rate, uPortal isn't starting up
[11:33:56 CDT(-0500)] <Bananobot> Here's what I get when I restart Tomcat and try to start uPortal via the host manager: http://pastebin.com/Q7HLaXab
[11:34:51 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> have you looked in the uPortal log file?
[11:35:37 CDT(-0500)] <Bananobot> Hm... it's unable to find javax.portlet.PortletMode
[11:36:15 CDT(-0500)] <athena> have you followed the instructions here? https://wiki.jasig.org/display/UPM32/The+Servlet+Container
[11:36:22 CDT(-0500)] <athena> sounds like maybe it's not finding the shared jars
[11:45:59 CDT(-0500)] <Bananobot> Aha! I think that was it
[11:46:12 CDT(-0500)] <Bananobot> It was looking in /shared/.jar but not /shared/lib/.jar
[11:46:24 CDT(-0500)] <Bananobot> uPortal started up
