[07:00:37 EDT(-0400)] <petterhig> anyone alive?
[07:00:42 EDT(-0400)] * petterhig is working late today
[07:00:49 EDT(-0400)] <petterhig> hopefully some of you will wake up (wink)

[11:16:06 EDT(-0400)] * EricDalquist (n=EricDalq@12.20.36.2) has joined ##uportal
[11:16:26 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I hate deciding where to put stuff in the wiki
[11:25:14 EDT(-0400)] <Tuomaz> Anyone knows howto fetch the (per user) uPortal locale setting in a portlet? (uPortal 2.6.1)
[11:52:05 EDT(-0400)] * dstn (n=dstn@unaffiliated/dstn) has joined ##uportal
[12:00:35 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> hrm
[12:00:41 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I'm not sure we ever implemented that
[12:00:51 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> but I honestly can't remember
[12:00:58 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> getting the user's locale is part of the portlet api
[12:01:09 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> it might be on the PortletRequest?
[12:43:05 EDT(-0400)] * ac_chan (n=alex@65.51.58.1) has joined ##uportal
[12:43:20 EDT(-0400)] <ac_chan> hello
[13:13:45 EDT(-0400)] * KWhat_Work (n=abarker@abarker.callutheran.edu) has joined ##uportal
[13:14:07 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> ummm any reason #uportal is empty and this is full?
[13:23:37 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> this channel is considered unoffical and by freenet standards its a double pound
[13:24:00 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> because I never bothered contacting freenode to setup #uportal
[13:24:05 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> and now that we're all here
[13:24:16 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I'm too lazy to try and move everyone to a new channel
[13:24:23 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> lol
[13:24:39 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> if someone feels like taking that on they are more than welcome (smile)
[13:25:13 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> haha nice ok
[13:25:40 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> if i remember correctly uportal 3 should work on tomcat 5?
[13:26:17 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> 5.5
[13:26:26 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> quickstart is bundled with 5.5.23
[13:26:40 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> 5.5 and 6.0, I don't think it will work on 5.0
[13:26:41 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> I haven't tried beyond that, Eric would know more though
[13:26:45 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> though I've never tested that
[13:26:46 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> dstn: no quick start for me this time
[13:27:01 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> cool
[13:27:19 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> 6.0.16 looks like the most recent in portage.... i think i will start there
[13:27:50 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> ok
[13:27:55 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> you will need to modify it
[13:28:02 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I think I added instructions in the manual
[13:28:16 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> tomcat 6.0 isn't configured with a shared/lib directory by default
[13:28:26 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> so you have to change one line in one file to enable it
[13:28:50 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> k, are the docs update yet?
[13:29:05 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> some are
[13:29:56 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/UPM30/01+Tomcat
[13:30:03 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> looks it is documented
[13:30:15 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> please feel free to add/fix to the manual as you go
[13:30:20 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> it is a collective effort (smile)
[13:30:32 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> i will do my best
[14:18:16 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> Im so excited, no more java 4, no more oracle
[14:37:55 EDT(-0400)] * EricDalquist (n=EricDalq@12.20.36.2) has joined ##uportal
[15:52:00 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> I need some help with the path setups
[16:04:30 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> I've never done it, sorry (sad)
[16:04:59 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> if your still talking about tomcat 6 path's right?
[16:18:42 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> well mainly just the server.base and .home
[16:23:10 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> ok think i figured it out
[16:24:43 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> ahh man ant 1.6
[16:25:48 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> is this for real
[16:26:00 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> what?
[16:26:17 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> error: /root/tmp/build.xml:8: The nested macros in this build.xml do not work with 'Apache Ant version 1.7.0 compiled on April 14 2008', the current recommended version is 1.6.5
[16:27:03 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> ah ya...
[16:27:14 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> guess im going to be doing some patching
[16:27:28 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> that is why quickstart, if you noticed, comes with 1.6.5
[16:27:44 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> I know your not doing quickstart but just a comment
[16:28:18 EDT(-0400)] * michelled (n=team@142.150.154.197) has left ##uportal
[16:28:56 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> yah, i totally forgot about this, i think thats why i did quick start the first time. 1.6.5 is not available in portage anymore.
[16:29:29 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> portage...is that gentoo?
[16:29:48 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> yes
[16:31:01 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> cool, always wanted to give it a go
[16:31:18 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> I'm too big of a fan of debian though
[16:31:31 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> ant shouldn't be hard at all to install and add to your path
[16:31:34 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> its a real headache to install for the first time but its as close as you can get to building an os from scratch.
[16:31:45 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> gentoo that is
[16:31:55 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> Ya, thats what I've heard. Really interesting though.
[16:37:25 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> is there anything i need to know about database or is jut just preference?
[16:38:05 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> Basically what im asking is are we using innodb for mysql or myisam (i think thats what it is)
[16:40:48 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> I know that some database's have to be configured differently due to different available data types. Basically just follow the manual and you should be good.
[16:40:57 EDT(-0400)] <KWhat_Work> k
[16:41:14 EDT(-0400)] <dstn> other than that, ya its a preference
