[14:28:59 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> pardon my asking, but is there an IRC channel for CAS ?
[14:29:05 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> no
[14:29:38 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> though there are a lot of requests for that
[14:29:48 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> nothing stopping interested CAS users from setting one up (smile)
[14:30:37 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> I'd be a user if the documentation was a little more informative... banging head for a few days.. not getting anywhere overly productive
[14:31:08 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> I followed the "best practice" and got it working fine: http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/CASUM/Best+Practice+-+Setting+Up+CAS+Locally+using+the+Maven2+WAR+Overlay+Method
[14:31:29 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> moving on to LDAP and nothing in there seems current (for older versions of source code): http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/CASUM/LDAP
[14:33:27 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> well with no CAS irc channel, sounds like the next place for that discussion would be on the cas mailing lists
[14:34:43 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> perhaps they have a mail archive I can browse... the wiki is out of date and not helpful.
[14:36:13 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> I really wanted to move onto uPortal – but see that CAS would be a method for authentication, but since I been having issues with CAS... uPortal .. I haven't even touched yet.
[14:36:18 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> just glancing at that page, though, it does seem like what I used the last time I tried it
[14:36:27 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> also it was updated not too long ago, april 2010
[14:37:25 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> holdorph, you have ldap working with current 3.4.2 ?
[14:37:56 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> i did ldap with the version that uportal 3.2.1 uses
[14:38:10 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> so whatever version of cas comes with uportal 3.2.x
[14:38:13 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> CAS 3.4.2
[14:38:23 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> okay
[14:38:46 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> so uportal comes with different version of CAS ?
[14:39:35 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> https://www.ja-sig.org/svn/uPortal/tags/rel-3-2-1-GA/pom.xml
[14:39:42 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> search for cas-server.version
[14:39:51 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> looks like 3.3.5 in that version.
[14:39:59 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> yep
[14:40:51 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> so wait.. holdorph, you installed uPortal + CAS at same time, not as two separate parts?
[14:41:10 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> the default source distribution of uPortal
[14:41:15 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> comes bundled with the cas server
[14:41:52 EDT(-0400)] * dx9s_work shakes head... even more fuel (confusion) to the fire
[14:41:54 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> it's mostly for demonstration purposes
[14:42:23 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> it's easy to 'remove' if you already have a cas server established
[14:42:36 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> IF ... heh
[14:46:02 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> well the first green area (as of 3.3.5, this is already included in the appropriate POM) ... does this mean I don't add that dependency or not... if I don't I get a problem because deployerConfigContext refers to a class/method not available. if I tried to add the dependency (as listed) I get "1 required artifact is missing"
[14:47:07 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> POM is a strange build process
[14:47:22 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> you mean maven is a strange tool?
[14:47:28 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> that too!
[14:47:39 EDT(-0400)] <holdorph> pom.xml is just a maven source file
[14:47:48 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> understood
[14:54:41 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> I think the issue is that the LDAP wiki page assumes you are at a different starting point.. not the point you end at when you are at the end of the 'Best Practice' wiki page (for CAS)
[15:01:00 EDT(-0400)] * dx9s_work tries making copy of src and hacking the changes they had in Best Practice and LDAP ... seems to be a better fit (location of files they talk about)
[15:02:14 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> ARG ... 2 artifacts missing now
[15:08:03 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> I know this should be that hard... it's just one little piece of information that is missing... a small one.. but a nugget never-the-less!
[15:08:14 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> I know this SHOULDN'T be this hard taht is
[15:08:42 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> ls -la
[15:08:46 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> oops wrong window!
[15:15:21 EDT(-0400)] <athena> dx9s_work: CAS is indeed bundled w/ uPortal and is the default authentication mechanism, but you're not required to use it
[15:15:58 EDT(-0400)] <athena> i haven't really tried the 3.4.x configuration, but I believe the documentation works for 3.3.x LDAP auth, and I could probably help with some examples for the 3.3.x versions if you need them
[15:16:51 EDT(-0400)] <athena> but for 3.3.5, you should not have to modify the pom.xml to get it to build, and if you do manually add dependencies you may get errors
[15:17:03 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> athena, I might take you up.. something I just tried, but be working... need to install the war into tomcat and will report back
[15:17:12 EDT(-0400)] <athena> (smile)
[15:18:12 EDT(-0400)] <athena> and the CAS email lists generally are a pretty good source of help if you don't get answers here - they're archived on nabble as well, i believe
[15:24:27 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> well closer at least... and it's having a permission denied when logging. so now have to research why... "java.io.FileNotFoundException: perfStats.log (Permission denied)"
[15:38:35 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> apparently didn't have all the pieces installed for log4j
[15:39:28 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> now just need to import the certificate from the LDAP server into the java cacerts (/etc/java-6-sun/security/cacerts)
[16:41:41 EDT(-0400)] * athena (~athena@2002:d8e7:2660:1234:21f:5bff:fec7:31a) has joined ##uportal
[16:43:33 EDT(-0400)] * athena (~athena@dsl231-038-096.sea1.dsl.speakeasy.net) has joined ##uportal
[17:30:15 EDT(-0400)] <dx9s_work> OKAY .. after been pulled away on some lame Win 7 thing ... imported the root CA for the AD here into cacerts and restarted tomcat6 and was able to authenticate off the active directory.. I should document this!
