Status 3.2 has been released! These notes are outdated, but remain here for future reference. This is our up-to-the-minute "punch list" of items to be resolved for the 3.2 release. We're currently aiming to release on May 8th. Outstanding IssuesISSUE-1: Ingest of demo:5,18,29,14 fail with non-fedora context CAUSE: Hardcoded URLs that don't use local.fedora.server. ACTION: Review all demo objects and use local.fedora.server where possible. As per the solution for issue-2, use local.fedora.server/fedora/ (contiguous, not split up) where appropriate. WHO: Aaron STATUS: ISSUE-2: Smiley demo "list" dissemination doesn't work with non-fedora context CAUSE: The SDep, demo:CollectionImpl requires the "fedora" part of the path to be specified: <http:operation location="fedora/risearch[...]">. ACTION:
WHO: Aaron STATUS: ISSUE-3: System tests don't pass with non-fedora context CAUSE: Not fully determined, but ISSUE-1 above is one probable cause. At least ConfigA was failing for Eddie when he tried it. Eddie also saw strange references to 127.0.1.1, but grepping the code for this turned up no result. Also, Andrew noticed a failure with testBatchModify, which Kai has fixed, and Andrew has updated the documentation. ACTION: Re-run tests, making sure to set the correct fedora.appServerContext in build.xml and webapp_name in env-server.sh beforehand. WHO: Eddie STATUS: For Kai and Andrew all test suites with different contexts are passing. Eddie ?
ISSUE-4: fedora-ingest-demos doesn't work with non-fedora context and usage message is incorrect. CAUSE: Doesn't pass optional parameters, so the ctx param is never passed in. ACTION: Fix usage message and allow it to take ctx WHO: Kai STATUS: ISSUE-5: fedora-rebuild gives confusing error message with non-fedora context when WEBAPP_NAME is not changed in env-server.sh/bat CAUSE: The fedora-rebuild script uses this info to determine what the classpath is, in order to run the right java ... command. ACTION: Give better error message. (Also see DOC-1) WHO: Kai STATUS: (Aaron) env-server.bat has been modified as part of FCREPO-487 to use environment variable WEBAPP_NAME (if defined) to set alternate context. If WEBAPP_NAME is not set, it defaults to 'fedora'. If that is incorrect, then the error message is the same.. I didn't change any messages (Kai) changed error message so that it is more meaningful in case the wrong context is set.
ISSUE-6: Some commandline scripts not covered by tests (Kai noticed) ACTION: Identify which ones WHO: Kai STATUS: ISSUE-7: Ingest and add managed datastream not working with new admin ui. CAUSE: Repeatable in Chris' environment when AuthN off for API-A and first attempt to POST to rest api is via one of these actions. This appeared to be happening because the popup window closes before the browser has a chance to prompt for credentials. So we were aiming for a solution that ensured credientials would be prompted for beforehand. However, it now appears to be happening regardless of the credentials... the data just doesn't make it into Fedora in some cases. Keeping the upload popup open after submit has been pressed (manually removing onSubmit="window.close()") seems to consistently allow this to succeed, regardless of credentials. Keeping it open for only two seconds causes the upload to fail when sending in a large file, so it clearly needs to remain open while the upload is in progress. ACTION:
WHO: Bill STATUS: ISSUE-8: Analyzer issues warning when running with Derby embedded CAUSE: Derby embedded requires the database to be shutdown through java code before the vm exits, or it issues a warning. ACTION: Document that this is a harmless warning in the migration doc WHO: Chris STATUS: ISSUE-9: Upgrade from 3.1 still needs to be tested. ACTION: Normal install (point new fcfg to old db+data/ dir), then run RI rebuilder for Mulgara WHO: Eddie STATUS: ISSUE-10: Journal RMI Reciever not distributed or acknowledged in docs ACTION: Make a build.xml target for a self-contained jar distribution (with version=3.2) and note it's existence in journaling documentation. WHO: Aaron STATUS: ISSUE-11: ConfigA test fails with alternate context CAUSE: repeatable in Eddie's env (configA + postgres + Java6 + alternate context). Not repeating when using the default webapp context. Fails in TestManyDisseminations with java.lang.RuntimeException: Error getting Fedora Client<br/> at fedora.test.api.TestManyDisseminations.<clinit>(TestManyDisseminations.java:63)<br/>Caused by: java.io.IOException: Request failed 500 Internal Server Error : http://localhost:8080/asdf/describe?xml=true Stacktrace yields java.net.SocketException: Broken pipe that traces back to fedora.server.access.FedoraAccessServlet.getDissemination(FedoraAccessServlet.java:816). ACTION: Verify behavior WHO: Eddie STATUS: Outstanding DocumentationDOC-1: Finish doc updates for webapp context configuration (with note that it's experimental) WHO: Andrew, with help from Kai STATUS: Installer text updated. New doc started here DOC-2: Update rebuilder documentation WHO: Chris STATUS: DOC-3: New doc: "Configuring Lowlevel Storage" (covers Akubra), linked from install/config WHO: Chris STATUS: Started here DOC-4: New doc: "Web-Based Admin UI" WHO: Bill STATUS: DOC-5: Release Notes WHO: Chris, Andrew STATUS: Imported all issues from Jira, alpha order for now. still need descriptions DOC-6: Review migration guide for accuracy with 3.2 WHO: Chris STATUS: DOC-7: SWORD-Fedora integration guide (FCREPO-404) WHO: Eddie STATUS: Started at SWORD-Fedora 1.2 Remaining Release Steps as of 5/8:-------- - kai - checkin usage - all - remove 3.1-specific stuff (remove 3.2 "tags") - release notes by monday (andrew working on most of these, chris will to intro) During |
Committed to trunk. This also had the consequence of removing entirely the need to convert demo objects (script has been removed and noted in docs as 3.1 and below only) before running tests with alternate ports, hostnames, and app server context.
I tried this same configuration and test in WinXP this afternoon, and Ubuntu tonight and the test passed. Anyone else? - Chris
