[10:18:11 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> good morning
[10:18:21 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum> good morning
[10:18:38 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I'm trying to get you access to the clearing house to do what you need to
[10:18:50 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum> thanks man
[10:18:54 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> if you want I can get you the password for the jasigch user which has all of the permissions you need
[10:19:36 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum> am i correct in thinking that if i am added to the jasigch group, i'll be able to do everything i need to do? edit apache config, start/stop apache?
[10:19:46 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> well you can edit things
[10:20:05 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I just emailed to get the start/stop commands added to sudoers for the jasigch group
[10:20:41 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I'm also looking at Jira and trying to decide what I should tackle next. I could do the Maven refactoring so it can just be commited once we move to SVN, or I could work on the 'easy' portlets (IFrame, XSLT, WebProxy)
[10:20:56 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> or if there are other issues that would help you
[10:22:28 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum> hmmm. i think i can get the cascaded DO deletes done this afternoon. after that, the only things left on my plate for uP3 will be the CVS/SVN stuff and an error that shawn found when trying to rename tabs (which i have not yet been able to duplicate).
[10:22:50 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum> we have a status meeting here in 10 minutes... i was under the impression some of our QA guys would be looking at the 'easy' portlets.
[10:23:15 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> ok
[10:23:23 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum> but if you've got time to look at iframe etc, that might be more efficient
[10:23:49 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> ok
[10:24:01 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> do you think I could listen in on that status meeting?
[10:24:06 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum> np
[10:24:26 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum> let me check with charise to see how she wants to work the phone call
[10:25:07 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> thanks
[10:25:43 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum> how about we just call you .... what number is best?
[10:28:23 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> 608-890-1423
[10:29:03 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum> ok. will call in a few
[10:29:09 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> sounds good. thanks
[10:55:00 CST(-0600)] * andrewpetro (n=microcli@uni1.unicon.net) has joined ##uportal
[11:26:00 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> what time is it in AZ right now?
[11:26:13 CST(-0600)] <andrewpetro> 10:25 AM
[11:26:22 CST(-0600)] <andrewpetro> it's what, 11:25 AM in scenic Madison, WI?
[11:26:23 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> thanks (smile)
[11:26:27 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> yup
[11:26:44 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> a bit snowy here right now
[11:26:49 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> well ... slushy
[11:26:52 CST(-0600)] <andrewpetro> http://www.time.gov/
[11:27:13 CST(-0600)] <andrewpetro> yeah. I turned on my air conditioning for a bit yesterday afternoon.
[11:28:54 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> (smile)
[11:51:33 CST(-0600)] * deuce (n=deuce@uni1.unicon.net) has joined ##uportal
[14:01:16 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> dmccallum would you like to get the jasigch credentials now so you can start the SVN work until you get added to the jasigch group?
[14:03:22 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum> paul lynn said he has put in a request to have me added to the jasigch group.... i think this hibernate stuff will take me the rest of the day, so how about we wait until tomorrow and if i'm still not a member, i'll ask you for the raw jasigch login?
[14:03:33 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> sounds good
[14:03:42 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> just want to make sure you're not waiting on it
[14:04:17 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum> got plenty to keep me busy, but yeah, lets be aggressive and try to get this done this week
[14:04:30 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> (smile)
[15:59:00 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I'm trying to publish a new portlet via the portlet manager and getting an exception, has anyone here recently published a new portlet definition?
[15:59:16 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum> what's the error?
[16:00:08 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> PortletManager has a problem creating a transient portlet definition to use as the backing object during publishing
[16:00:28 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum> haven't seen that one
[16:00:47 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum> but to answer your question directly, i haven't tried publishing a portlet recently
[16:00:49 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> the transient portlet definition registry logs an error level message when trying to create the portlet def but returns null
[16:01:21 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> ok, I'll send an email with the stack trace in it if anyone has any ideas ... and just keep looking to see if I can figure out whats up
[16:01:37 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum> i've got a question for you...
[16:02:10 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> ok
[16:02:15 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum> lets say you delete a portlet app in the portlet mgr. what is the expected behavior for user layouts referencing portlets in that portlet app?
[16:03:02 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum> currently, i'm deleting the entire portlet domain model, but am not touching user layouts, so the result for the end user is an on-screen error reading "unable to obtain portlet window"
[16:03:22 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I think for now that is ok
[16:03:26 CST(-0600)] <dmccallum> ok
[16:03:50 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> What I think would make some sence is the layout manager/transforms handle the missing portlet
[16:04:15 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> some places may want to show a 'missing portlet' others may just want to hide it
[16:18:21 CST(-0600)] <andrewpetro> Doesn't DLM do something very much like that? Detecting bad channel entries (not allowed, not existing) and dropping them?
[16:18:32 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> yes
[16:19:07 CST(-0600)] <deuce> dlm is my hero
[16:28:21 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> hrm ... it appears the deployer is hosed
[16:28:56 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I have a <portlet-servlet> in my web.xml instead of a <servlet>
