SSP v2.0.0 general release announcement

Jasig released 2.0.0 on September 1, 2013. This new version includes a set of major improvements and all patches included in v1.2.X and v1.1.X.

v2.0.0 Upgrade Information

If you are running SSP version 2.0.0 or 2.0.0-b3, you are strongly encouraged to upgrade to 2.0.1 or 2.1.0 or 2.2.0 or later or otherwise apply the Confidentiality Level-related patches for the Student Documents tool as described by SSP-1917 .

For implementers with any 2.0 beta version installed, upgrade steps are required.

2.0-b3 installations

Create new permissions for OAUTH2 client management
- ant -Dmaven.test.skip=true -Ddir=uportal-war/src/main/data/ssp_entities/patches-SSP-2-0-0/SSP-1387 data-import
The default local.properties now includes two new properties. If changes are made to the source distribution, the following lines need to be added.
- environment.build.sso.requireSecure=true
- environment.build.sso.ticketTimeToLiveMinutes=5
The addition of the race reference table adds defaults that were manipulated to create the code column. After the release is deployed, review the Races reference table in SSP Administration to update the values.
{{ssp.log}} can now optionally include the request URI (e.g. {{/ssp/api/1/session/getAuthenticatedPerson}}) in each log message. To add the additional output
- Add '%X\{req.requestURI}' to your {{<pattern>}} config in {{logback.xml}}.
  - Example:

    <appender name="consoleAppender" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender">
        <encoder>
            <pattern>${system_id}: %d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%thread] %X{req.requestURI} %-5level %logger{36} - %msg%n</pattern>
        </encoder>
    </appender>

Pre 2.0-b3 Installations

SSP v2.0.0-b3 Release Notes

Upgrade Notes:

For implementers upgrading from a version prior to 2.0-b2, please pay attention to the following items.

A new column named code has been added to the student_type table. The code column is not nullable and must be unique so SQL has been added to the liquibase to copy the student_type.name to student_type.code. The code column is limited to 10 characters and the name column is longer than 10. For any item with a name longer than 10 characters, the liquibase will fail. In order to allow the liquibase to complete, the name values must be temporarily reduced to 10 of fewer characters. Once the SSP application deploys, the name values can be restored. This must be done locally in the database.
Removal of duplicate permissions for student documents

SQL to delete dup perms:
	delete from up_permission_activity where activity_name in ('PERSON_STUDENT_DOCUMENT_READ','PERSON_STUDENT_DOCUMENT_WRITE');
	2 results

SQL to remove group to perm relationships:
	delete from up_permission where activity in ('PERSON_STUDENT_DOCUMENT_READ','PERSON_STUDENT_DOCUMENT_WRITE');
	6 results

uPortal Database Update

uPortal Database: Updates the uPortal database to include SSO options contributed by St Petersburg College and Indian River State College

		ant -Dmaven.test.skip=true db-update
		
		Alternatively, the update can be done during the deployment with:
		
		ant -Dmaven.test.skip=true clean db-update deploy-ear

uPortal Permissions and Groups to support SSP Roles

If you are upgrading through SSP v1.2.x, be sure to execute the uPortal data migrations for that version first. This can be done in a single command:
 
   ant -Dmaven.test.skip=true -Ddir=uportal-war/src/main/data/ssp_entities/patches-SSP-1-2-0/ data-import
 
Then execute the 2.0.0 migrations:
 
    ant -Dmaven.test.skip=true -Ddir=uportal-war/src/main/data/ssp_entities/patches-SSP-2-0-0/ data-import
 
Then update the list of child groups for the 'SSP Roles' group:

   ant -Dmaven.test.skip=true -Dfile=uportal-war/src/main/data/ssp_entities/group_membership/SSP_Roles/SSP_Roles.group-membership.xml data-import

All upgrades:

The Sencha SDK is now required for SSP builds

Install the Sencha SDK
- Download Location: http://www.sencha.com/products/sdk-tools/download
- Update your system or user PATH, appending the root of the Sencha SDK install
- Additional information: SSP Sencha Build Tool Usage (see that page for additional installation steps on 64-bit OSs)

You should delete or change the passwords for the uPortal users created for demonstration purposes, especially in a production deployment. This can be done through the user interface: Manage Users -> Find an Existing User -> [Enter user ID from list below] -> [Click result] -> Delete or Edit, then change password. Demo users:

advisor0
ken
student0
student1

Non-private installs should also either change the admin user's password or add some other user to the Portal Administrators group and delete the admin user.
