[11:34:10 CDT(-0500)] <cwaymire> drewwills: hey you around?

[12:18:10 CDT(-0500)] <drewwills> hey cwaymire... just picked up some lunch

[12:23:07 CDT(-0500)] <cwaymire> drewwills: sent you a message

[15:48:00 CDT(-0500)] <tlev> @cwaymire - We deployed the Portal Activity portlet however we are seeing all zeros for now/today/yesterday and nothing under "people are searching for". is there anything that we need to setup in order for this portlet to work or anything you can suggest us to look into?

[16:01:56 CDT(-0500)] <cwaymire> one sec

[16:02:35 CDT(-0500)] <cwaymire> did you set up the aggregator and define the groups and intervals?

[16:09:43 CDT(-0500)] <tlev> which one should we setup?

[16:09:50 CDT(-0500)] <cwaymire> it uses the aggregations from the org.jasig.portal.events.aggr.action.SearchRequestAggregator and the org.jasig.portal.events.aggr.concuser.ConcurrentUserAggregator

[16:09:58 CDT(-0500)] <cwaymire> so you need to make sure those 2 are aggregating

[16:10:52 CDT(-0500)] <cwaymire> oh and org.jasig.portal.events.aggr.login.LoginPortalEventAggregator

[16:10:54 CDT(-0500)] <cwaymire> so those 3

[16:11:09 CDT(-0500)] <cwaymire> as long as those 3 are aggregating you should be getting values

[16:11:50 CDT(-0500)] <tlev> Is it for a specific group?

[16:13:23 CDT(-0500)] <cwaymire> groups are defined by the <aggregated-group-config> in uportal-war/src/main/data/default_entities/event-aggregation/default.event-aggregation.xml

[16:13:54 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> which groups is the portlet looking at to display its data?

[16:13:59 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> or does it look at all groups?

[16:14:20 CDT(-0500)] <cwaymire> it looks at whatever is aggregated on

[16:14:52 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> huh

[16:15:24 CDT(-0500)] <cwaymire> well. we also aded the ability to limit that in the portlet.xml

[16:15:25 CDT(-0500)] <cwaymire> via properties

[16:15:37 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> ok

[16:15:53 CDT(-0500)] <cwaymire> you can set PortalActivity.ActivityController.displayGroups

[16:15:54 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> just weird, we have logins and concurrent users setup

[16:15:55 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> not search yet

[16:15:58 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> but it shows 0s

[16:16:23 CDT(-0500)] <cwaymire> make sure the values in that portlet pref are correct

[16:16:41 CDT(-0500)] <cwaymire> it has Students, Faculty and Staff by default

[16:16:54 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> ok

[16:17:05 CDT(-0500)] <cwaymire> because if that pref is defined it will limit what it displays to those

[16:18:11 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> where is that default value defined?

[16:18:18 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> portlet.xml or the portlet definition file?

[16:18:37 CDT(-0500)] <cwaymire> should be in the portlet.xml

[16:18:52 CDT(-0500)] <tlev> it is

[16:18:57 CDT(-0500)] <tlev> thanks cwaymire

[16:19:08 CDT(-0500)] <cwaymire> if its not defined then it will display anything that is aggregated on

[16:19:22 CDT(-0500)] <cwaymire> that pref should probably be commented out

[16:19:26 CDT(-0500)] <cwaymire> by default
