[08:39:48 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> hey everyone
[08:40:22 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> hey jason
[08:40:39 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> dan re-built GAP last night and updated the jar in uP3
[08:40:55 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> you'll need to get the update and use that for GAP & PAGs setup
[08:40:57 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> I saw the email – importing it into the repo now, going to take a look at it
[08:41:12 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> big PersonDirectory change is the repackaging, right?
[08:41:25 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> thats the only one I believe
[08:41:47 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> K. I'll scan the configs and see where I get
[08:41:58 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> some quick housekeeping to do and then we'll get to play with it
[08:42:06 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> hopefully quick
[08:42:09 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> ok
[08:42:27 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I'll be afk for about an hour ... leaving in ~ 5 minutes
[08:42:37 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> k. have fun
[09:45:37 CST(-0600)] * EricDalquist (n=dalquist@bohemia.doit.wisc.edu) has joined ##uportal
[09:53:53 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> hey Eric - I tried applying Faizan's PD changes, but the portlet still gives me "no user attributes"
[09:53:56 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> no exceptions though
[09:54:08 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> hrm
[09:54:09 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> do you remember if you 2 had to make any portlet publishing changes?
[09:54:22 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> or maybe patched it or something?
[09:54:41 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> can you look in person-directory.xml and see if there are mapped attributes named like user.name.given?
[09:54:49 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> I know he missed checking in his build.xml & build.properties, so he might have missed an updated WAR
[09:55:10 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> I see a bunch of mappings that look correct
[09:55:18 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> is that specific mapping in there
[09:55:36 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> yeah
[09:55:41 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> hrm
[09:55:48 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> givenName to set of givenName & user.name.given
[09:56:10 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> ok, well you should be getting some attributes as long as you have those values
[09:56:16 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> and you have the right ldap query?
[09:58:18 CST(-0600)]

[09:58:24 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> except netid instead of RCPID
[09:58:30 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> it works in an LDAP client
[09:58:41 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> hrm
[10:00:12 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> can you apply this patch http://developer.ja-sig.org/source/rdiff/jasigsvn?csid=2881&amp;u&amp;N
[10:00:31 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> it adds logging to the code that maps user attributes from person directory to a portlet's USER_INFO map
[10:02:21 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> hmmm... I may just make Faizan fix it when he comes in this afternoon
[10:02:33 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist>
[10:02:43 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> it would be nice if it worked on machines other than his workstation...
[10:02:50 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> that it would
[10:03:02 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I'm going through PersonDirectory right now and doing some clean up and adding a lot of logging
[10:03:06 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> makes a better public announcement than "up3 PD works on Faizan's desktop!"
[10:03:14 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> but that won't be ready until late today
[10:03:34 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> plus I moved the code from using LdapTemplate to SpringLdap (same code just different package names)
[10:03:39 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> well, I'll bump this to Faizan and go back to layout publishing...
[10:03:47 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> yay, different packages!
[10:03:53 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist>
[10:04:08 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> well all you should have to change is the decl of LdapContext in person-directory.xml

[10:29:02 CST(-0600)] <Faizan> Hi! there
[10:30:20 CST(-0600)] <Faizan> Jason where we are at
[10:45:05 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> pop on over...
[10:47:40 CST(-0600)] <Faizan> Jason do you see me
[10:58:50 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> see you?
[10:59:17 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> u at home?
[10:59:32 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> So PersonDirectory didn't work for me when I pulled the files in from CVS
[10:59:45 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> even after I patched build.xml and build.properties
[10:59:57 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> so I went back to looking at portlet publishing & layouts.
[11:00:03 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> figured you could fix it when you got in.
[11:00:27 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> haven't looked at GAPS yet – though Dan E. posted an updated GAPS jar in SVN which we should be able to use as is
[11:00:33 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> going to take off in about 1/2 hour...
[11:05:09 CST(-0600)] <Faizan> ok
[11:05:18 CST(-0600)] <Faizan> so you have not tried the Gaps yet
[11:05:39 CST(-0600)] <Faizan> I am home Hamza is sick and my wife have interview today
[11:05:46 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> so not coming in today?
[11:05:53 CST(-0600)] <Faizan> I thought I will work from home but our VPN client is not working
[11:05:57 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> k. we can pick up tomorrow.
[11:06:07 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> did you update your VPN script?
[11:06:12 CST(-0600)] <Faizan> No I am coming during after noon hours
[11:06:14 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> Bryan sent out an updated one a while ago
[11:06:23 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> never mind, take the day
[11:06:28 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> play with the kid
[11:06:30 CST(-0600)] <Faizan> I will try to play with GAPs today
[11:06:45 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> check your workspace first to see if you're missing any PD stuff
[11:06:46 CST(-0600)] <Faizan> I wanted to but we do not have whole lot of time
[11:07:01 CST(-0600)] <Faizan> The only difference we have is the data.xml
[11:07:05 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> and try doing a clean rebuild – didn't work on my desktop, and didn't want to spend a lot of time troubleshooting
[11:07:09 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> well, check anyway
[11:07:23 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> I had to add bits to build.xml and build.properties t
[11:07:31 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> o make it compile
[11:07:34 CST(-0600)] <Faizan> I reverted back to the orignal data.xml and then I manually added users myself (faizan, jason etc)
[11:07:51 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> not sure if you or Eric patched the portlet or PD jars or something
[11:07:56 CST(-0600)] <Faizan> mmm I will take a look and make sure every thing is in cvs
[11:08:05 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> yeah
[11:08:24 CST(-0600)] <Faizan> Eric should have a patch today for adding more logging for the PD
[11:08:40 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> yeah, he mentioned it
[11:09:12 CST(-0600)] <Faizan> Is her around this after noon
[11:09:38 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> I don't remember – I think he mentioned taking a halfday this week... probably in yesterday's IRC logs
[11:09:53 CST(-0600)] <Faizan> I hae to go
[11:10:13 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> cool
[11:10:18 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> I got Col. Henry published
[11:10:22 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> and in the template layout
[11:10:27 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> I'll commit data.xml before I leave
[11:10:39 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> still some bugs with the title
[11:16:17 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> so ported one of our webproxy channels into the layout with the portlet
[11:16:26 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> man that took a lot of lines in data.xml
[11:16:35 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> I can see why the default layouts are so small...
[11:17:19 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist>
[11:17:21 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> yeah
[11:17:25 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> it is a pita
[11:17:31 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> on a random side note
[11:17:37 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> RDBMServices in uP2 is the devil
[11:19:15 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> heh
[11:19:25 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> a major underling perhaps...
[11:19:54 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> we pretty much threw it away for a lot of our channel dev after a while - though I probably used it to get datasource references actually...
[11:21:20 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> We just ran into an issue where the first connection the portal tries to get fails
[11:21:28 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> so the database meta data that is cached is invalid
[11:21:36 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> so all the code that relies on that meta data fails
[11:21:47 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> brb
[11:26:29 CST(-0600)] <Faizan> jason
[11:26:39 CST(-0600)] <Faizan> what I need to do to deploy gaps
[11:30:16 CST(-0600)] <Faizan> I mean if you know some starting point tips please tell me
[11:30:27 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> Dan sent a message to the list yesterday
[11:30:35 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> you probably need to grab the new jar from SVN too
[11:30:40 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> to mesh with the PD stuff
[11:31:19 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> I just forwarded the email to you
[11:31:28 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> the attachment should have attachments
[11:31:38 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> otherwise - check your jasig-dev mail from yesterday
[11:32:06 CST(-0600)] <Faizan> the attachement has the jar or I still need to get it from svn
[11:32:11 CST(-0600)] <Faizan> is it part of the up3
[11:33:42 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> still need to get it from SVN
[11:33:46 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> check in portal/lib
[11:33:56 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> or look in fisheye for the commit
[11:35:14 CST(-0600)] <Faizan> ok
[11:36:37 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> I'm going to head out for the day
[11:36:39 CST(-0600)] <jayshao> see you tomorrow
[11:36:44 CST(-0600)] <Faizan> ok
