I think this is an issue that was brought up a couple of days ago. Just to make sure: is this only a problem with the BizznessTime theme? In other words, if the no-user default theme is FlatGrey or Bluelight then there should be a login link. -David On May 8, 2009, at 3:54 AM, Rishi

Actually there IS a wiki feature in OFBiz as part of the content management (CMS) functionality. It is a pretty simple variation on the blog and forum functionality, just a difference in configurable permissions. -David On May 6, 2009, at 1:25 AM, guo weizhan wrote: There is not wiki

Have you looked at the database to see if those columns really are not part of the primary key? Sometimes there are JDBC driver quirks for checking things like primary keys, so the best thing to do is look in the database itself to verify. -David On Apr 25, 2009, at 11:51 AM, snowch

This may or may not be related to the connection pool. That is certainly issue that has been improved in the trunk, but the behavior (if I remember right) was not something you would typically see in testing, only stale transactions and such on servers that have been live for a while.
