[11:15:03 CST(-0600)] <prabhu> hi

[11:15:27 CST(-0600)] <prabhu> I am new to SSP

[11:15:40 CST(-0600)] <prabhu> Anybody here to help me with this product

[11:33:51 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum54> yes

[11:37:03 CST(-0600)] <prabhu> thanks

[11:37:19 CST(-0600)] <prabhu> how can I deploy SSP as a portlet in uportal?

[11:38:31 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum54> the easiest way is to deploy into an all-new uPortal that comes pre-built with SSP-specific config as described at https://wiki.jasig.org/display/SSP/SSP+v1.1.1+Installation+Instructions

[11:39:03 CST(-0600)] <prabhu> but how I have other tools as well

[11:39:16 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum54> if you want to try deploying to an existing uPortal you could try the deployPortletApp ant target in the uPortal build.xml

[11:39:43 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum54> but… i believe you find that it is non-functional b/c a vanilla uportal does not support the APIs that SSP needs

[11:39:44 CST(-0600)] <prabhu> ok

[11:40:12 CST(-0600)] <prabhu> what version of uportal is this SSP using?

[11:40:35 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum54> if, on the other hand, you dont have an existing uPortal but you do have other portlets you want to run alongside SSP, you could follow the instructions linked above, and then add in the other portlets as you normally would in a vanilla uP install

[11:41:08 CST(-0600)] <prabhu> ok, that sounds good

[11:41:17 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum54> ssp uses two branches of uportal: ssp-master, which is based on 4.1.x and ssp-rel-1-0-patches which is based on 4.0.x

[11:41:34 CST(-0600)] <prabhu> ok

[11:43:44 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum54> the API contract that SSP uses to talk to uPortal is here… https://github.com/Jasig/uPortal/tree/ssp-master/uportal-java-api

[11:44:27 CST(-0600)] <prabhu> what can I do with this?

[11:44:33 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum54> well

[11:44:49 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum54> if you're trying to run in a vanilla uportal you'd need to add that API and its implementation to your uP build

[11:44:55 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum54> there is a pull request that might help with that: https://github.com/Jasig/uPortal/pull/109

[11:44:56 CST(-0600)] <prabhu> oh ok

[12:23:20 CST(-0600)] <JasonElwood> Tony- it appears all the MyGPS Jira issues for 1.2.X are open, but I believe you have completed or working on some of them. Can you give me a list of them or update them in Jira? I'm trying to move some of them off your plate for current and next.

[12:40:41 CST(-0600)] <TonyUnicon> ?

[12:40:50 CST(-0600)] <TonyUnicon> SSP-171 and its subtasks

[12:41:09 CST(-0600)] <TonyUnicon> I believe are all labeled correctly

[12:43:26 CST(-0600)] <TonyUnicon> SSP-706, SSP-618, SSP-661 , SSP-670

[12:43:56 CST(-0600)] <TonyUnicon> am I missing something?

[12:49:09 CST(-0600)] <JasonElwood> sorry- I meant the once that aren't resolved. all the others are open, not in-progress. I don't want to move one you are currently working on

[12:52:48 CST(-0600)] <JasonElwood> I moved a few out of the iterations: 663, 665, 667 and looking for more

[12:53:28 CST(-0600)] <TonyUnicon> ahh ok I see what you mean, the two I'm look at now ive marked in progress

[12:54:17 CST(-0600)] <JasonElwood> Thanks- I'll try to move some more out

[12:55:55 CST(-0600)] <TonyUnicon> my wife is stopping by for lunch i'll be out of pocket for 30-45 minutes, if you post a question here I'll get back to you when im back at my desk

[12:56:32 CST(-0600)] <JasonElwood> enjoy the time. I'll just move the issues out. so check the updated list for the current iteration.

[12:56:41 CST(-0600)] <TonyUnicon> ok thanks
