Hi all,
at least I found some time to test the 2.0 release. Here is a small
feedback on the mistakes I found when following the quickstart :
http://lsc-project.org/wiki/documentation/2.0/sample
First, as prerequisite, is is written that JAVA_HOME environment
variable need to be set. In my case, my java is installed with my
distribution, and so there is no need to set such variable. I use
Kubuntu 11.10 with sun-java6 packages :
clement@ader:~$ java -version
java version "1.6.0_26"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_26-b03)
Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 20.1-b02, mixed mode)
Then :
* The LSC bin archive is a ZIP archive, not tar.gz as written in the quickstart
* The sample directory has subdirectories. To use the quickstart, we
need to go in the subdirectory hsqldb
Other commands work fine, but I noticed some oddities :
* We have a WARN in the log :
avr. 02 13:21:57 - WARN - No clean request has been specified for
task=MySyncTask. During the clean phase, LSC wouldn't be able to get
the right entries and may delete all destination entries !
This warning is clear but might let be thinking the sample do not run correctly
* When reading logs, I found that the LDIF entries may not be just
printed below the line "avr. 02 11:51:14 - INFO - # Adding new object
...", some entries are printed directly after others, without the INFO
line (which appears upper in the log). It is maybe a bug in the
logging code?
* To test the connector, I updated a phone number, and the noticed
that it was not synchronized. In fact, attributes o, address and
telephoneNumber are in the sample.csv but are not configured to be
written int the LDAP directory, is it a choice or just a missing
configuration part?
* Other test I wanted to do is put sn in uppercase as written in the
quickstart, but the quickstart refers to the old configuration file
(lsc.properties). Here is the configuration to use for lsc.xml:
<dataset>
<name>sn</name>
<forceValues>
<string>js:srcBean.getDatasetFirstValueById("sn").toUpperCase()</string>
</forceValues>
</dataset>
That's all for the moment. I would be happy to update the wiki with
these remarks if you are OK with them.
Clément.
