[11:13:38 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> what tomcat are you using?
[11:13:47 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> 6
[11:13:51 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> 0.16
[11:13:54 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> i believe
[11:16:12 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> I am not familiar with 6.0.16, is portlet-api where it needs to be?
[11:16:30 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> im not familiar with tomcat, how do i check
[11:18:22 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> in 5.5.x it goes in shared/lib but in 6.x.x they got rid of shared/lib so I don't know
[11:19:00 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> well i have a copy here: /var/lib/tomcat-6/shared/lib/portlet-api-1.0.jar
[11:24:20 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> Yah the paths are correct
[11:24:35 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> lot of spring isssues
[11:25:20 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> Did you configure Tomcat 6 to use shared/lib? It doesn't by default.
[11:25:44 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> yah
[11:26:18 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> /etc/tomcat-6/catalina.properties , shared.loader=shared/lib
[11:26:37 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> Path may be relative to the CATALINA_BASE path or absolute
[11:26:44 EDT(-0400)]

<dstn> $

Unknown macro: {catalina.base}

/shared/classes,$

/shared/lib/*.jar


[11:26:53 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> CATALINA_BASE == /var/lib/tomcat-6
[11:27:12 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> full error report: http://pastebin.com/d71bb5068
[11:31:57 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> mmm i should be able to deploy the default prefs corect?
[11:32:08 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> uPortal Properties that is
[11:32:22 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> ?
[11:32:40 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> i dont need to modify any of the http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/UPM30/Properties
[11:32:50 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> it should work stock .?
[11:32:57 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> oh..ya
[11:33:19 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> and you know what the deal with any 1.7 is ?
[11:33:20 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> well...beyond setting up the database and such
[11:34:23 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> The errors your having are due to classloading issues, not properties
[11:35:54 EDT(-0400)]

<dstn> Did you try shared.loader=$

Unknown macro: {catalina.base}

/shared/classes,$

/shared/lib/*.jar and restart tomcat?


[11:36:04 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> no
[11:38:05 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> ... mmm that did it ....
[11:38:30 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> HAHAHA
[11:38:56 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> thats pretty exciting
[11:39:10 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> cool, good to hear
[11:40:24 EDT(-0400)] * apetro-_ (n=apetro@205.215.222.135) has joined ##uportal
[11:43:36 EDT(-0400)] * EricDalquist (n=EricDalq@205.215.222.135) has joined ##uportal
[11:56:02 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> So we get this stack trace a lot in our logs. http://uportal.pastebin.org/33448 It doesn't seem to affect anything but we'd like to take care of it. Anyone else experienced this or seen it before?
[11:57:22 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> hey dstn http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/PLT/AJAX+in+a+Portlet
[11:57:33 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> yeah
[11:57:49 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> that stack is just a bug in the portlet adapter
[11:57:53 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> it should be catching and ignoring that
[11:58:44 EDT(-0400)] * athena7 (n=athena7@205.215.222.135) has joined ##uportal
[11:59:42 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> EricDalquist: thanks for the link, that diagram is nice
[11:59:58 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> no problem
[12:00:06 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I should have the rest of the docs finished today
[12:00:13 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> including a link to the notepad portlet which uses this
[12:01:42 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> So for that stack trace, was there a bug fix or can you point me to where I need to catch the exception?
[12:02:08 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> at CPortletAdapter.java:367
[12:02:17 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> wrap the call to session.invalidate in a try/catch
[12:02:26 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> which catches and ignores the IllegalStateException
[12:02:37 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> the code is just trying to make sure all of the sessions are cleaned up
[12:02:46 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> but the session is expiring before the cleanup happens
[12:03:11 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> great, thanks!
[12:03:21 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> yup
[12:21:38 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> EricDalquist: what did you use to make that diagram?
[12:21:43 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> gliffy
[12:21:48 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> it is a confluence plugin
[12:22:07 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> if you have edit permission in the wiki (you should) there should be an Add Diagram link on each page in the upper right
[12:22:10 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> it is quite handy
[12:22:32 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> Ok, cool. Good to know for the future.
