Re: [FOSSology] 1.2.1 to 1.4?
Ray and Michael, This is an RPM issue. On debian that directory gets removed before the install. Ray is correct. The old copyright directory is still there and should either be renamed or just removed. In 1.3.0 Fossology replaced the copyright agent with a newer one that no longer used the directory of the 1.2.1 version. It's too late now, but our RPM's should have checked for that and removed it... Hope that helps. Micheal, you are ALMOST there! Keep at it. On 06/01/2011 11:25 AM, Westphal, Raymond W wrote: I forgot about that. Yes, I had a similar error. I renamed the copyright directory to copyright.OLD and tried again. And after the install there was an issue with an unusually named copyright directory. So you may want to check for another copyright.

Re: [FOSSology] NOMOS - how to find differences compared to license templates?
Raino, I saw your question on IRC with Bob, here is the answer. To upgrade to 1.4.0, it's best to upgrade from 1.3.0. If you are still using 1.2.x, then the safest way to upgrade is to go from 1.2.x - 1.3.0, then immediately upgrade again 1.3.0- 1.4.0. It might be possible to skip 1.3.0, we have not had time to test it, so we can't really say if it will work.

The /var/log/maillog file shows email sent to the user. Is there a Fossology log I can examine to see when email was sent and can I check to see the contents of the email sent? Did your user check her junk email or spam folder(s)? Was she previously receiving notifications from FOSSology and some recent change caused them to stop showing up? Your checks already confirmed that the FOSSology server itself sent the email as expected, so the issue is most likely on the user's end. Not sure if the FOSSology application itself keeps an email log. Dan Ray, Dan is pretty much spot on. All fossology can do is schedule the email to be sent. It can't tell if your email system is configured properly. BUT, a log of email sent and any failures are kept in the scheduler log. In a failure all we can report is that we failed to schedule the email. Look in the scheduler log for entries like: DEBUG[28]: Mail has been queued by fo-notify If there are any queueing errors, they will be reported instead of the above message. Hope that helps.

Thanks, Dave Dave, We don't really support 'jumping' releases. By that I mean that we have never tested it. The safest way to upgrade to 1.3.0 would be to install (or build/install if installing from source) 1.2.1, not use it, and then upgrade to 1.3.0. In this way you are sure to get all the db changes between the releases. None of our releases ever remove user data from the DB. That would be a serious defect. As an FYI, for 1.3.1, bsam, license groups, license terms and the Spec agent are being removed from the product. We are keeping the ability to display bsam results, but no more basm analysis (agents) will be available after 1.3.0. We believe this will meet your needs for the display of older basm results.

New in version 1.3.0: 1. Groups. Implemented user groups inside of fossology as an indirect but critical requirement for 1.3 because tagging (the real 1.3 requirement) is dependent on having groups to administer tag permissions. 2. File Tagging. The ability to attach a tag (short (max 32 character) tag, plus a long text) to a file or container. 3. Copyright agent replaced. A quick experiment showed that we get better results with simple heuristics rather than the old agent based on naive Bayes. 4. Fixed a cp2foss authentication bug that prevented bucket agent from getting scheduled. 5. Improvements to unpack agent. 6. Many bug fixes!

Existing modules include license analysis, Copyright/Email/URL scanner, analysis of deb and rpm packages. This open source software tool analyzes a given set of software packages, and reports items such as the software licenses used by these packages. More than simply reporting, Package X uses license Y, the FOSSology tool attempts to analyze every file within the package to determine its license. The license report is thus an aggregate of all of the different licenses found to be in use by a package. A single package may be labeled as GPL but contain files that use other licenses (BSD, OSL, or any of the hundreds of other licenses). Even if an exact license is unknown, the license may be identifiable by common license phrases. The FOSSology Project started as an internal software development effort within Hewlett Packard's Open Source and Linux Organization. The tool evolved over several years at HP from a few simple shell scripts to the much more comprehensive tool you see today. Enjoy!

Re: [FOSSology] Install of 1.2.1
Dave, Please make sure you got what you wanted. The version of fossology I got when I installed from 9.10 was fossology 1.1.0, you wanted to upgrade to 2.1 right? What I think is going on is that fo-installdeps is broken on 9.10. So not everything get's installed. Given that you already had fossology on there, I would have thought just recompiling, installing and rerunning fo-postinstall would do it for you. So, my experience was: 1. fo-installdeps broke for me too. 2. I started to follow the INSTALL doc to install the deps, then saw bob's message. 3. Installed apt-get fossology, to see what I would get. 4. Decided 1.1.0 was not good enough. BUT, now all install dependencies should be OK. 5. used dpkg --remove to remove 1.1.0 of fossology 6. compiled, installed from 1.2.1 sources 6.5 finished all last system config's. 7. Ran fo-postinstall 8. system came up. Let us know if you have further problems. We think you will like nomos. Dave McLoughlin wrote: Thanks, that did it.

Re: [FOSSology] Fossology Install
Gurbax, I don't think it is going to be easy to get FOSSology running on ubuntu 10.04. I have tried both the server and desktop versions for i386 and there are issues. I also have discovered that the 1.2.0-1 and 1.2.0-2 debian packages available on fossology.org do not install and are reported as broken packages on 10.04. I know that FOSSology should install clean on a Debian Lenny system (which is what we use) or a RedHat 5.X system (which is also what we use). I will be trying a ubuntu 8.04 server version on Thursday. I believe that will work. Ubuntu 10.04 is new and they seemed to have changed some things that are now breaking FOSSology. I am sure given some more time I can get past the 10.04 issues. If you really want to get started using FOSSology 1.2.0 (I cannot recommend 1.1.0), I would suggest you use either Debian Lenny, Ubuntu 8.04 or RedHat 5.x (or CentOS).

Re: [FOSSology] Fossology Install
Dragoslav, Thanks for writing. I knew someone had done this, and was going to go through the mail archives to see if I could figure out who, and what they did. Thanks, you saved me a lot of time! I'll look into the method you described below. Dragoslav Mitrinovic wrote: Mark, Gurbax, I've installed 1.2.0~rc2 on Ubuntu 10.04 as soon as it became available. I did not even try installing pre-compiled binary .deb packages since I knew they weren't right for my distribution. Instead, I built my own .deb packages from debian source packages, and then installed those newly generated .debs. To build my own .debs, I did something along the following lines (typing this from memory, so it may not be quite accurate, but you'll get the idea): apt-get source fossology apt-get build-dep fossology cd fossology-1.2 debuild -i -us -uc -b dpkg-scanpackages . | gzip -c Packages.gz Then add this folder to your /etc/apt/sources.list, something like this: deb file:///somepath/fossology-1.2 ./ Update the apt database (apt-get update), and you should see your new packages as ready to install with apt-get install.

Make sure my os was up to date: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade 2. Added the fossology repository into the sources.list file for apt: # FOSSology 1.2.0 deb http://fossology.org/debian/lenny-backports/1.2.0-1 ./ 3. Configured my system as per the INSTALL doc: - kernel - postgres - php - apache (use the path /usr/share/fossology/www instead of /usr/local/share) 4. update again: sudo apt-get update 5. Installed fossology: sudo apt-get install fossology, the packages cannot be authenticated... install them anyway. It should install just fine, create a scheduler.conf file for you and start the scheduler. By going to: http://your-machine.domain/repo/ you should see the fossology login screen.

I will bring this up as a candidate for the 1.3 release, that's the best we can do for now. Would having the ability to export the reports into pdf or onto another web-site meet your needs? For example, if fossology could export the desired reports to another web-site on the same server, that should solve this. So each department would have their own mini web site that just has their data on it? Just thinking out loud.

My products can contain much open source components. I must check everything manually. Why don't FOSSology show me the correct license, for example: jcommon - LGPL but not jcommon--LGPL, GPL Thanks, Halil Halil, Yes, we are aware of this issue. Identifying licenses is hard! In our next release we will have another license agent that does a better job in these cases than our current license analyzer. Let me make sure I understand your concern. - You know there is one license. So why do we show 7? is that right? You would like to just see 1 license if there is only one license. Is that right? One of the problems is that there is no standard official license text. People routinely construct a license from the text parts they like or they take a license text that may or may not match the current license distributed on the gnu site. So it is possible that a given license text can match parts of a number of licenses. I know this doesn't help you much, but today, it's the best we can do. We continue to work on license analysis and plan to improve the accuracy as best we can. In this case since you know the license, the match is 'close enough' for that particular file. I would encourage you to use the tool and then look for licenses that are not lgpl/gpl and only focus on those files? Perhaps that might work for you. Hope that helps some. -- Mark Donohoe OST, Cupertino CA. fossology.org ___ fossology mailing list fossology@fossology.org http://fossology.org/mailman/listinfo/fossology
Re: [FOSSology] Hardware Setup Question for Fossology, going from Multi-Setup to Single-Setup...
Furosh One wrote: Hey guys, Happy New Years to all you! I just wanted to ask for your recommendation on our fossology setup and planning for this year. Currently we have the multi-fossology setup with 6 machines and it's working great (thanks to all your hand-holding :-)!!! We have the setup in one of our lab benches and are trying to decide if we should leave the existing setup in place, place it into production in the server room, or purchase new hardware to consolidate the multi-setup into a single faster Server-class rack-mountable machine. Our fossology project has gotten some really high-visibility with management and they definitely see the need for it due to our code review and Intellectual Property and Compliance guidelines. So my question is I currently have the 6 machines which consiste of (mostly all): (6) Machines - (1) Server (DB, Web Server, Scheduler) (5) Fossology Agents/Distributed Repos * Dual-Core (2) Intel 6400 2.13 Ghz CPUs * 4 GB RAM (mainly 4 GB, except for 1 or 2) * 150 GB SATA II 3.0 Hard Drives Considering getting (1) Rack-mountable DELL server with: * (2) Intel® Xeon® X5560, 2.8Ghz, 8M Cache,Turbo, HT, 1333MHz Max Mem (Each CPU is a Quad-Core (4) CPU, which should equate to having (8) CPUs for our setup.) * 24 GB 1333MHz Memory for 2 processors * 1TB 7.2K RPM SAS Hard Drive * Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.3 x64 Operating System So obviously this is a really nice server, almost a why would I be asking or what's not to like question right? Well just wondering about anything that would absolutely NOT work like the OS (we were using Ubuntu prior but RHEL 5 has better backup/restore capabilities since we use Veritas Netbackup), or any bottlenecks compared to the multi-setup we got right now. And we're obviously trying to save space and go away from the 6 Tower machines we got. We're investing money into the hardware but need to return the existing hardware back to IT for new employees as well. So any feedback/suggestions/recommendations would be appreciated? -Regards, Gibran Marquez Gibran, Thanks for the interest. I'm sure the Dell system is nice. Our project is sponsored by HP, so I'm going to suggest an HP solution instead. Why? Not because we work for HP. I believe that the HP is a better product and that HP can provide better service IMHO. A comparable model would be a HP ProLiant BL460c G6, in a c3000 enclosure (will fit up to 8 blades).( The dell has a little faster memory). I would recommend a different disk setup. Use internal disks on the blades for the OS, and apps, but get a storage raid and store the fossology data on that. You can carve up the array so that each blade has a good chunk of the array. I'm not the best on the hardware, maybe Dan will chime in as he does all the hardware for our project. Anyway both the BL and DL line of ProLiant blades are nice products. The msa family is nice. I'm using one on my development cluster. http://h18006.www1.hp.com/storage/disk_storage/msa_diskarrays/drive_enclosures/index.html?jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN RedHat should work fine. We tend to run Debian (lenny) as we like the apt set up much better than rpms. Yum isn't bad. We will be using a redhat set up at some point as that's what a lot of folks use in business.

Re: [FOSSology] Question on Agent Status
Matt Taggart wrote: (http://www.fossology.org/debian/lenny-backports/, please refer to=20 attachment slide 2). This indicates that fossology is installed not using the fossology meta package but by installing packages by hand (like you'd do if you were setting up cluster), which should still function fine on a single machine. When you originally installed fossology did you install the 'fossology' package or did you install some fossology-* packages by hand? When you upgraded did you make any changes? What does your /etc/fossology/Scheduler.conf file look like? When installing in this non-automated mode, your Scheduler.conf file isn't automatically updated for new agents, so it might just list the only the ones in the older version of fossology you had installed. If you don't really want to be doing this by hand mode and want to switch to the automated mode, just install the 'fossology' package and it should switch everything back. (it would still be good to know why it's not working though) Matt, You are on to something here I think the reason there are no agents is that fossology-agent-single and fossology-scheduler-single needs to be installed if this is a single system. Heinz, 1. This appears to be an ubuntu install, which version of ubuntu? 2. Is this a single system install (instead of a multi-machine cluster install)? 3. If it is a single system I would recommend doing the following: apt-get remove fossology apt-get update apt-get install fossology That should bring everything you need onto the system and install it. Your agents should work after that. (I think! :-)). Hope that helps. -- Mark Donohoe MOST/OSTT, Cupertino CA. fossology.org ___ fossology mailing list fossology@fossology.org http://fossology.org/mailman/listinfo/fossology

Thanks, Bennis Abraham, We will be looking into this today. Sorry for no replies, busy with other bug fixes. I'll get back to you as soon as I find something. Abraham, I was able to upload and process the same file you are trying to upload. A few questions: 1. What version of fossology are you using? 2. Is this installation a single system or a cluster with a server or two and one or more agent machines? If it is a cluster, when uploading from server, you must have the file available on all the agent machines. For example, if you have machine 'Master' running the scheduler and the web server and you have two agents machines slave1 and slave2. The file must be at the same path/location on BOTH slave1 and slave2. The scheduler will pick one of the agents and try the upload from there. So, one possible problem might be that you are using the cluster and the file is not on the agent selected by the scheduler. 3. Is this a deb or rpm package install or an install from source/tarball? 4. Have you changed any of the standard install paths in Makefile.conf? I have been able to unpack the file on both a cluster and a single system install. Let me know the information above and I will continue to try to duplicate your problem. -- Mark Donohoe MOST/OSTT, Cupertino CA. fossology.org ___ fossology mailing list fossology@fossology.org http://fossology.org/mailman/listinfo/fossology

I noticed when I executed with the -q argument, it showed that two out of two jobs were completed for that upload and when I executed without the -q, it showed that one out of one job completed for that upload. Why is that? Can the upload using the cp2foss command be deleted through the UI? When I select to delete upload files, it shows the folder name in the drop-down list, but when I select the folder, there is no file displayed to delete. Also, can the folder be deleted through the UI? When using either the UI or cp2foss, the only jobs that get scheduled if no boxes are checked (in the UI) or no -q arguments are given to cp2foss, the the file is only unpacked. (along with a supporting job called adj2nest). So that is why without -q you see one job and with -q you see 2. -q agent_license runs the license analysis on the file (what most folks are interested in). Using cp2foss, without a -q, the file is just unpacked, not very interesting. The upload and folder can be removed using the UI. The is the recommended way. When deleting, if you select the folder and nothing shows, then there is no upload to remove, the folder is empty. Glad you have been able to get things to work.

[FOSSology] License Test Results
Folks, I'm looking for some feedback, ideas. I have been working on creating a license test suite using the eddy data. That is all working fine. Where I have slowed down is reporting the results. (For those of you on the list, eddy is what we call our license test data set, and a web application that runs the tests reports on the results). 1. I can easily create a table like eddy does that displays the results of each test. When I did that I was overwhelmed with data! Just too many results. 2. So I stepped back from that and was designing some smaller summary tables, when I realized that maybe tables were just the wrong reporting method. (just reporting the summarized results for each test type directory would be 84 lines long (42 directories, 2 agents)). 3. I am currently looking into creating some charts. I can and will still generate the tables, as that's what folks are used to (and that is almost all working). During all of this I kept asking myself, what do folks want to know about the results? So I'm asking you. What do you want to see in the results? I think the following are needed: - Reporting all of the results - Reporting the totals could be useful. E.g. FoNomos had 50 passes and 0 failures, Bsam had 35 passes and 34 failures. The results can be grouped by test directory, there are currently 42 'test types' used by eddy (that is there are 42 directories). I know that the eddy tests are not all that we will ever test on. It's what we have now. Totals per test type or test directory, is that interesting? What else?

Daniel, I have some questions as I have not been able to reproduce your problem. I noticed a few things about your installation: 1. cp2foss is installed in /srv/fossology/bin, is that correct? 2. It appears that you have the rest of fossology installed under /srv/fossology as shown here: PHP Notice: Undefined index: updcache in /srv/fossology/share/fossology/www/plugins/ui-license.php on line 114 3. Do you know what directory you were in when you issued the command: /srv/fossology/bin/cp2foss -f. ? This is rather unique. We have never tested an installation like this. Are you a programmer or an experience linux system admin? Installing fossology in a non-standard place SHOULD work, but there may be a number of areas in the code or configuration scripts that might need to be adjusted. As a result, we don't recommend installing in any other place other than /usr/local for the upstream tar balls (or source builds), and the standard system locations in the debian packaging, (/usr, /usr/lib/, /usr/share, etc...). 4. The other item that is difficult to reproduce is the temp file location reported by you. If I am cd'ed into / (the root of the file system) the tar file in my install ends up in the repository: /srv/fossology/repository/cp2foss-4a088fa9379a2.tar. If I'm in my home dir it still ends up in the repository: ma...@hallows: pwd /home/markd DB-CP2: Filename is:/srv/fossology/repository/cp2foss-4a08967994f52.tar tar: Removing leading `/' from member names I have also tried other places as well.

I can't figure out how you got cp2foss to report: tar: /cp2foss-4a081eff990ed.tar: Cannot open: Permission denied tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now FATAL: '/cp2foss-4a081eff990ed.tar' does not exist. notice the tar path Is everything from fossology down (in /srv/fossology) on your system group owned by fossy?

[FOSSology] Upgrade issue with Scheduler.conf
Matt, We have hit an upgrade issue for 1.1.0 FOSSology so I wanted to get your take on if it's possible to take care of it with debian packages on upgrade. Here is the problem: - New agent fo_notify. Needs to be included in the Scheduler.conf file. On an upgrade, most (if not all) of the time Scheduler.conf will exist and so will not be updated. Without the update, when the scheduler is restarted after the upgrade, it will fail. It can't find fo_notify. Questions: - Can the deb scripts be set to forced an update of Scheduler.conf? - Is there a way to notify the user that Scheduler.conf MUST be updated? (Failure results if it is not updated/regenerated). - We already have this in the release notes for 1.1.0, so we have documented it: http://fossology.org/release_notes - Are there other deb alternatives? This can't be the first time a conf file has to be updated on upgrade.

Best regards, Daniel Goebel. Daniel, Sorry the patch as not fixed your problem. I'm looking into it further now. I'll get back with you as soon as I can. Daniel, I have some questions as I have not been able to reproduce your problem. I noticed a few things about your installation: 1. cp2foss is installed in /srv/fossology/bin, is that correct? 2. It appears that you have the rest of fossology installed under /srv/fossology as shown here: PHP Notice: Undefined index: updcache in /srv/fossology/share/fossology/www/plugins/ui-license.php on line 114 3. Do you know what directory you were in when you issued the command: /srv/fossology/bin/cp2foss -f. ? This is rather unique. We have never tested an installation like this. Are you a programmer or an experience linux system admin? Installing fossology in a non-standard place SHOULD work, but there may be a number of areas in the code or configuration scripts that might need to be adjusted. As a result, we don't recommend installing in any other place other than /usr/local for the upstream tar balls (or source builds), and the standard system locations in the debian packaging, (/usr, /usr/lib/, /usr/share, etc...). 4. The other item that is difficult to reproduce is the temp file location reported by you. If I am cd'ed into / (the root of the file system) the tar file in my install ends up in the repository: /srv/fossology/repository/cp2foss-4a088fa9379a2.tar. If I'm in my home dir it still ends up in the repository: ma...@hallows: pwd /home/markd DB-CP2: Filename is:/srv/fossology/repository/cp2foss-4a08967994f52.tar tar: Removing leading `/' from member names I have also tried other places as well. The tar file always ends up in the repository area. I can't figure out how you got cp2foss to report: tar: /cp2foss-4a081eff990ed.tar: Cannot open: Permission denied tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now FATAL: '/cp2foss-4a081eff990ed.tar' does not exist. notice the tar path Is everything from fossology down (in /srv/fossology) on your system group owned by fossy? If not, that's a problem. It should be similiar to this: ma...@hallows: ll -d fossology/ drwxrws--- 3 oident fossy 4096 2009-05-04 21:25 fossology/ ma...@hallows: ll -R fossology/ | less -X fossology/: total 4 drwxrws--- 4 oident fossy 4096 2009-05-11 14:22 repository fossology/repository: total 8 drwxrws--- 5 oident fossy 4096 2009-05-11 09:21 localhost drwxrws--- 3 oident fossy 4096 2009-05-05 18:13 ununpack fossology/repository/localhost: total 16 drwxrws--- 219 www-data fossy 4096 2009-05-05 18:41 files drwxrws--- 16 www-data fossy 4096 2009-05-05 18:43 gold drwxrws--- 205 oident fossy 4096 2009-05-05 18:53 license notice the group owner is fossy and the group permissions are rws. Don't worry about the owner in the output above, it's the group that's important. The output is from my test system. Please take a look at your configuration to see if there are any issues there. Without the ability to reproduce your problem, it will be much harder to fix. I'll continue to experiment with this to see if I can find the issue or what's going on. Would it be possible to re-install in the standard locations and try cp2foss again
[FOSSology] Db changes, one more time....
Bob, Late Friday I was making the DB table changes. I went to make the change for the job_submitter and couldn't find my notes. I know we discussed this on fossology irc last week. Email says: Mark: Job table: -- replace job_submitter with user_pk,will need to change the type of the column. Bob: Yep. It never should have been a text name in the first place. But I seem to recall that on IRC we discussed that was not right... I thought you mentioned something about using a field in the jobqueue table and leaving the job table as is. When I look at the jobqueue table, I don't see anything that might apply. I thought I made a log of the irc discussion, but I can't find it. Do you recall? Please reply in e-mail, that way there will be a record of it. Thanks. -- Mark Donohoe ALPS/OSTT, Cupertino CA. fossology.org ___ fossology mailing list fossology@fossology.org http://fossology.org/mailman/listinfo/fossology
[FOSSology] DB table changes for email-notification
Bob, Here are my thoughts on the tables changes needed to support email notifications. This is the first time I have ever defined tables for a db, so if I'm doing something silly, please educate me. Thanks. Job table: -- replace job_submitter with user_pk,will need to change the type of the column. job_email_notify type changes to integer and is the foreign key to the email notification table. email_notification table: - relation of email table to job table is many to one. Many e-mail tables to one job table. em_pk(primary key for the email notification table) job_fk (job table key) email_sent (timestamp or null) user_fk (user foreign key, email sent on this users request) email_addresses (comma seperated list of addresses used to send the mail) comments? -- Mark Donohoe ALPS/OSTT, Cupertino CA. fossology.org ___ fossology mailing list fossology@fossology.org http://fossology.org/mailman/listinfo/fossology
