[13:25:42 EST(-0500)] <poofman> Greetings uPortal Devs: Is there a query string parameter I can add to a portal path that will show the raw xml output of the page instead of the xsl transformed html markup?
[13:25:51 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> nope
[13:26:03 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> there is loggin you can enable to see it in the log file
[13:26:11 EST(-0500)] <poofman> oh ok. great.
[13:26:21 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> you need to change to flags in portal.properties
[13:26:30 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> and enable the log category in log4j.properties
[13:26:32 EST(-0500)] <poofman> I'm trying to see what user data there is in the xml that I can pull into the stylesheet
[13:27:13 EST(-0500)] <poofman> I know at least the user name is in the xml since it shows in the menu area.
[13:27:27 EST(-0500)] <poofman> thanks EricDalquist
[13:33:42 EST(-0500)] <poofman> to trim down on the output, can I create the category for just this class org.jasig.portal.UserInstance to pull in the xml ? or maybe a sub package?
[13:33:50 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yup
[13:33:55 EST(-0500)] <poofman> cool. thanks.

[14:59:46 EST(-0500)] <athena> EricDalquist: how does one do maven site publishing for jasig projects?
[15:00:01 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> you need ssh access to jasig.princeton.edu
[15:00:03 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> if you have that
[15:00:04 EST(-0500)] <athena> is that something that should just work if you already have a jasig maven account?
[15:00:08 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> then you just run mvn site deploy
[15:00:09 EST(-0500)] <athena> ah
[15:00:11 EST(-0500)] <athena> i think i do
[15:00:21 EST(-0500)] <athena> do i need any special directory permissions?
[15:00:27 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> maven sets them
[15:00:36 EST(-0500)] <athena> gotcha
[15:00:45 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> the only annoying part is jasig.princeton.edu doesn't work with SSH keys
[15:00:48 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> so like for uportal
[15:00:50 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> I have to watch it
[15:00:56 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> and enter my password like 8 times
[15:01:07 EST(-0500)] <athena> does it prompt you for username/password?
[15:02:02 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> it assumes your OS username
[15:02:13 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> there is a way to set that via a property
[15:02:16 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> but I can never remember it
[15:02:26 EST(-0500)] <athena> ah ok, i'll have to look into that
[15:03:07 EST(-0500)] <athena> would like to try it for the calendar portlet
[15:04:18 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> if you want a link to it on developer.jasig.org you'll need to SSH to jasig.princeton.edu and edit /jasig/htdocs/developer.ja-sig.org/index.html
[15:22:18 EST(-0500)] <athena> sounds good
[15:23:13 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> just found facebook's latest UI for the friend lists
[15:23:14 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> much nicer
[15:23:21 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> makes sticking everyone in lists a lot easier
[15:23:35 EST(-0500)] <athena> oh nice - i'll have to check it out
[15:23:38 EST(-0500)] <athena> mostly i just ignore facebook
[15:23:47 EST(-0500)] <athena> takes too long to read through everyones stupid quizzes
[15:23:59 EST(-0500)] <athena> hmm
[15:24:01 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> "hide" is my FAVORITE button
[15:24:07 EST(-0500)] <athena> yeah
[15:24:10 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> since you can hide an app once
[15:24:11 EST(-0500)] <athena> i've done that for abunch
[15:24:17 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> and never ever see anything for that app ever again
[15:24:57 EST(-0500)] <athena> hm.
[15:24:57 EST(-0500)] <athena> i
[15:24:57 EST(-0500)] <athena> may
[15:25:00 EST(-0500)] <athena> not have an ac
[15:25:08 EST(-0500)] <athena> i may not have an account after all
[15:25:15 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> hrm
[15:25:16 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> ok
[15:25:19 EST(-0500)] <athena> i know i had one on some machine at some point
[15:25:28 EST(-0500)] <athena> but perhaps it wasn't this one?
[15:25:58 EST(-0500)] <athena> should it ask me for a password?
[15:26:17 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yeah
[15:26:21 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> I just looked
[15:26:33 EST(-0500)] <athena> it doesn't ask me for one
[15:26:33 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> you don't have an entry in /etc/passwd
[15:26:36 EST(-0500)] <athena> ah
[15:26:42 EST(-0500)] <athena> guess that'd be why (smile)
[15:26:43 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> so I just made the request
[15:26:50 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> to get you an account
[15:27:53 EST(-0500)] <athena> thanks (smile)
[15:36:33 EST(-0500)] <athena> doesn't the release plugin run the site goal?
[15:36:45 EST(-0500)] <athena> if it's not possible to suppress that, i may need a server account after all
[15:36:46 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yes
[15:36:47 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> but
[15:36:56 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> it fails to work against jasig.org
[15:37:03 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> because it can't prompt you for the password (tongue)
[15:37:08 EST(-0500)] <athena> ah
[15:37:14 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> really annoying
[15:37:14 EST(-0500)] <athena> so how do you handle using the release plugin?
[15:37:18 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> I use it
[15:37:22 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> then ctrl+c at site
[15:37:25 EST(-0500)] <athena> ah
[15:37:25 EST(-0500)] <athena> ok
[15:37:26 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> then run the site part manually
[15:37:29 EST(-0500)] <athena> that's what i've been doing
[15:37:33 EST(-0500)] <athena> otherwise it just hangs
[15:37:38 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yup
[15:37:41 EST(-0500)] <athena> lame (smile)
[15:37:44 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yup
[15:37:46 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> very
[15:38:01 EST(-0500)] <athena> no way to put in credentials for that? kinda weird, because you can for svn
[15:38:05 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> webdav needs an extension for uploading ZIPs
[15:38:17 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> I've never gotten it to work for this machine
[15:38:21 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> others I just use ssh keys
