[09:48:57 EST(-0500)] <athena7> good morning!
[09:49:43 EST(-0500)] <athena7> Eric does the uportal build script currently have the ability to delete portlets before re-deploying them? i'm concerned about the portlets accidentally being copied over, rather than removed and replaced in our automated builds
[09:49:52 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yes
[09:49:56 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> look at build.properties
[09:50:06 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> I can't remember the name off the top of my head
[09:50:24 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> but there is a true/false flag there that will remove an existing webapp before deploying
[09:50:28 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> same thing for shared/lib
[09:50:45 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> if uPortal is the only thing in your tomcat instance you probably want both of those set to true
[10:04:27 EST(-0500)] * lennard1 (n=sparhk@ip68-98-56-21.ph.ph.cox.net) has joined ##uportal
[10:10:06 EST(-0500)] <athena7> excellent, thank you (smile)
[10:10:18 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> find it?
[10:10:35 EST(-0500)] <athena7> i'm guessing the answer is "removeExisting"?
[10:10:42 EST(-0500)] <athena7> does that remove all the webapps, not just uportal?
[10:11:21 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> well it doesn't remove all
[10:11:26 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> it replaces
[10:11:34 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> perhaps it is poorly named
[10:11:42 EST(-0500)] <athena7> interesting
[10:11:52 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> so if you deploy foo.war and removeExisting is true webapps/foo will be deleted first
[10:11:53 EST(-0500)] <athena7> it removes before replacing i mean though?
[10:11:58 EST(-0500)] <athena7> awesome
[10:12:07 EST(-0500)] <athena7> that sounds like exactly what i want, thanks (smile)
[10:12:16 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> so it won't touch other webapps that aren't being redeployed
[10:12:17 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yup
[10:12:23 EST(-0500)] <athena7> i think the singular "webapp" made me think maybe it was just the uportal webapp
[10:12:26 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> and those are honored during deploy-war and deploy-ear too
[10:12:28 EST(-0500)] <athena7> that sounds perfect, actually
[10:12:35 EST(-0500)] <athena7> awesome (smile)
[10:12:36 EST(-0500)] <athena7> thanks so much!
[10:12:39 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yup
[10:14:05 EST(-0500)] <athena7> hm
[10:14:17 EST(-0500)] <athena7> so "ant clean" seems to remove uPortal, but not the existing webapps
[10:14:24 EST(-0500)] <athena7> is that what it's supposed to do?
[10:15:15 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yeah
[10:15:35 EST(-0500)] <athena7> but then when you do a deploy-ear it deletes the other webapps that are affected?
[10:15:44 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yes
[10:16:25 EST(-0500)] <athena7> sounds good

[16:25:28 EST(-0500)] <athena7> i think i've got uportal's bundled cas successfully updated to 3.3.1
[16:25:35 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> great!
[16:25:40 EST(-0500)] <athena7> (smile)
[16:25:46 EST(-0500)] <athena7> should resolve that JSP error
[16:25:55 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> wonderful
[16:26:03 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> were we on 3.3.0?
[16:26:11 EST(-0500)] <athena7> there was only a change or two that seemed to be required - one in the pom and one in the config xml file
[16:26:16 EST(-0500)] <athena7> 3.2.0, i think
[16:26:19 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> ah ok
