J2 - Zip File Download
Hi all,
I need to download a zip file from the server to client browser. I have a
servlet which does this --
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(uFile);
PrintWriter pw = response.getWriter();
int c = -1;
// Loop to read and write bytes.
while ((c = fis.read()) != -1) {
pw.print((char) c);
}
// Close output and input resources.
fis.close();
pw.flush();
Here is the servlet mapping from web.xml --
servlet-mapping
servlet-nameUploadServlet/servlet-name
url-pattern/servlet/uploadServlet/url-pattern
/servlet-mapping
And here is what I wrote in one of my jsp's --
html:link href=/servlet/uploadServlet?fileName=c:\\temp\\test.zip
title=DownloadDownload/html:link
When I click on the link, the whole setup does work. The only thing is,
instead of giving me a download window where I can save as the file, it
simply writes the entire file in the portlet itself so I see a bunch of
garbage text in my portlet.
Please please I really need help with this :-(
Thanks,
Amit

RE: J2 - Zip File Download
Figured out my answer !!! I simply have to give the control to a servlet
without rewriting the URL. The portlet does not need to be aware of the fact
that a file is being downloaded. Just transfer the control to a servlet, and
it is done.
There is a good discussion on this ---

Re: Jetspeed2-M2 genapp

Re: deploy my own instance portal
- If you want to just deploy your portals, make war files as you normally do with J2EE and deploy them in the deploy Directory of jetspeed -- XXX:\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28\webapps\jetspeed\WEB-INF\deployand jetspeed will pick it up and take care of rest. - Now if you want your portlets to show up on a web-page, you either have to change the psml's that come with jetspeed distro, or write your own. I suggest first make your own portlet, deploy it, and then see default.psml in XXX:\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28\webapps\jetspeed\WEB-INF\pages directory. You should be able to modify the code so that your own portlet also shows up on the main page. Once you get a little more xperience, you can start writing your own psmls. - If you want to change look and feel and customizations like that, you would need to write your own decorators. Again, decorators can be just deployed in the deploy directory of jetspeed and jetspeed will pick it up. I suggest you read all the documentation thats provided on the jestpeed website. I know it is not much but that will help you get started.

Re: Struts Bridge - ActionRequest Related Question
Hi Ate, Sorry to bring up this thread again. The solution that you mentioned - using window.top.location with html:rewrite did work well for me. However it created another problem. To summarize the situation, since it has been long since we discussed this thread - I have a jsp with 3 dropdowns. OnChange of first dropdown, second should load. OnChange of second, third should load, and onChange of third, a table should load on the page. I am using J2-SturtsBridge and DispatchAction. Since I only want to have one action for everything that this JSP does, and it is a dispatchAction, I have following in my portlet.xml. ... init-param nameViewPage/name value/r5prAction.do?dispatch=loadDropDowns/name /init-param ... First of all, I dont know if this is valid at all !! And then on the OnChange of my dropdowns, I do window.top.location=SomeThing and the SomeThing is derived by - javascript location='html:rewrite href=/r5prAction.do/'; location=location+?dispatch=loadSecondDropdown /javascript Now all of this works fine for the first time. I am able to click on the link from the menu-navigation system and come to this page, and then the dropdowns behave properly. But the thing is, once I fire an OnChange on any of the dropdowns, if I try to click on the maximize, minize buttons of the portlet, or even try to re-enter the portlet with the link from the menu-navigation system, I get the following error -- Request[/r5prAction.do] does not contain handler parameter named 'dispatch'. I guess something is happening and I am loosing the dispatch parameter. But the thing is, as long as I haven't fired the onChange of the dropdown, meaning - as long as the window.top.location has not been called, I can click on maximize, minimize buttons and everything else works great. Its only that once I fire the window.top.location, I start getting this error. And after that, I have to logout and log back in. I tried everything I can, but I can't figure out why this is happening. The problem is I want to use DispatchAction so that I dont have to write lot of classes for the same jsp.

This is ok. javascript location='html:rewrite href=/r5prAction.do/'; location=location+?dispatch=loadSecondDropdown /javascript This is not ok! You *must* encode the dispatch=loadSecondDropdown parameter using the html:rewrite tag itself, *not* append it yourself. Remember, the Struts Bridge versions of the html tags are created to deliver a PortletURL. A PortletURL cannot be treated like a normal url as it (can) encode much more than parameters for just your request, it might also need to encode the state of other portlets on the same page. Your postfixed parameter won't be recognized and thus not remembered by the portal, hence the error message. Check the Struts documentation for the html:rewrite tag: http://struts.apache.org/userGuide/struts-html.html#rewrite You'll find out its easy to embed your parameters using the paramId and paramName (and possibly paramProperty) attributes.

Looks like the problem is with the combination of JSTL and portlet

c:out value=${sessionScope.test}/ throws the exception, and
%= request.getSession().getAttribute(test) % is fine.
and the attribute I set inside portlet sessio is available in the http
session on JSP.
It is ugly if I am not able to use JSTL with JSP and portlet.

Inside the GenericPortlet doView, populate some data and put into the

Now I was trying to read the struts-bridge documentaion, and I have been able to figure out that by doing -- render-context attribute name=errors/ attribute name=message keep=true/ /render-context the request attributes will be preserved. But the problem is valuelist checks request.getParameter and not request.getAttribute, and I think the only way to set request parameter is by form submission, or by appending ?paramName=paramValue to the URL. But with struts-bridge, I can't see how I can control that ... Please help :-( Thanks a lot, Amit - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Best Way to start developing a portal
Hi Geoff, I got this advise from David Sean Taylor, and it has really worked great for me. I have a seperate directory where I have all my source for my portlet, decorators and stuff like that. And then I have my own maven goals in my project files which deploy these portlets, decorators and pages in jetspeed deploy directory. c:\MyProjects\MyPortlet\src\ etc. is where my source is. And it gets deployed to c:\tomcat\webapps\jetspeed\deploy And I always download jetspeed distribution to c:\jetspeed2\ This way whenever I want, I update my jetspeed distribution and deploy it.

3. project.xml
This file doesnot have much specific to my project. you can pick up anyone
from jetspeed and customize it
Of all the files that I have pasted here, the most important is maven.xml
file. Take a look at all the goals defined in that file. And then the
tomcat.home property in the project.properties file.
I would strongly suggest that read a little bit about maven and the way it
works. That would greatly help.

Struts bridge concept related Question
Hi all, Please pardon my stupid question because I dont have much experience with struts or portals !!! I have gone thru the struts-bridge documentation that is given on the jetspeed website, and I have a few questions as to what would be the best way to solve my problem. I have two pages in a portlet. On the first page there is a submit button, and a textField. When user clicks the button, the second page should come up. The second page has a drop down which needs to be loaded based on the textField value that the user entered on the first page. From the documentation, I think here is how I should do it --- I need to have two actions. When user clicks submit button, the first action (which is action-URL) gets called, I save the textField value in DB. Then redirect to the second action in the actionMapping. And the second action will be a render-URL, and that will call the DB and load the dropdown and put it in session and forward to the second page ??

RE: Documentation! PSML - No frames
1. If I wanted my portlets to be transparent to the client, e.g. no frames, no edit, help, minimize and maximize buttons, how would I do that? Does PSML (or maybe the lack of it) provide that functionality? Answer. - We can easily get rid of the edit and help button by controlling the permissions. But if you want to remove the minimize, maximize and the entire title bar, the only way I know of is to write your own portlet decorator. We can write it in velocity or JSP. Jetspeed distribution has samples of velocity portlet decorators. 2. what is the mechanism by which the portal container does initial rendering of its targetted portlets when your portal page first starts up? Does the container call the render methods of the contained portlets after initialization? I don't think the JSR 168 spec addresses this. I could hunt around for a while and figure this out, but if someone could point me to the right place it would be a big time saver. Answer. - As far as I know, the RenderRequest is called everytime a portlet is rendered. Meaning, if there are 5 portlets in a psml and the page is refreshed 3 times, each time, the render method of each of the 5 portlets will be called by the portlet container.

J2 - Struts Bridge with Jakarta Validator
Hi all, I am trying to user the validator plugin with struts bridge. It works great when I do a non-javascript validation with validate=true in the action mapping. However, if I want to do a javascript validation on the client side, I have to put validate=false, and in that case, I am getting a class cast exception. I tried to look around, and the problem seems to be that my form has to extend org.apache.struts.validator.ValidatorForm. And I checked the line where the exception is, and that is because it tries to cast it to ActionForm. However ValidatorForm does extend ActionForm :( Please pardon my question if it is stupid. I am a new with Struts :-( The exception is -- java.lang.ClassCastException at org.apache.struts.util.RequestUtils.lookupActionForm(RequestUtils.java:215) at org.apache.struts.util.RequestUtils.createActionForm(RequestUtils.java:181) at org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor.processActionForm(RequestProcessor.java:321) at org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor.process(RequestProcessor.java:204) at org.apache.portals.bridges.struts.PortletRequestProcessor.process(PortletRequestProcessor.java:50) at org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.process(ActionServlet.java:1164) at org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.doPost(ActionServlet.java:415) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:709) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.internalDoFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:237) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.doFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:157) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationDispatcher.invoke(ApplicationDispatcher.java:704) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationDispatcher.doInclude(ApplicationDispatcher.java:590) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationDispatcher.include(ApplicationDispatcher.java:510) at org.apache.portals.bridges.struts.StrutsPortlet.processRequest(StrutsPortlet.java:335) at org.apache.portals.bridges.struts.StrutsPortlet.processAction(StrutsPortlet.java:268) at org.apache.jetspeed.container.JetspeedContainerServlet.doGet(JetspeedContainerServlet.java:226) at org.apache.jetspeed.container.JetspeedContainerServlet.doPost(JetspeedContainerServlet.java:298) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:709) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.internalDoFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:237) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.doFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:157) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationDispatcher.invoke(ApplicationDispatcher.java:704) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationDispatcher.doInclude(ApplicationDispatcher.java:590) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationDispatcher.include(ApplicationDispatcher.java:510) at org.apache.jetspeed.container.invoker.ServletPortletInvoker.invoke(ServletPortletInvoker.java:215) at org.apache.jetspeed.container.invoker.ServletPortletInvoker.action(ServletPortletInvoker.java:133) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:39) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:25) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:324) at org.springframework.aop.framework.AopProxyUtils.invokeJoinpointUsingReflection(AopProxyUtils.java:61) at org.springframework.aop.framework.JdkDynamicAopProxy.invoke(JdkDynamicAopProxy.java:142) at $Proxy12.action(Unknown Source) at org.apache.pluto.PortletContainerImpl.processPortletAction(PortletContainerImpl.java:148) at org.apache.jetspeed.container.JetspeedPortletContainerWrapper.processPortletAction(JetspeedPortletContainerWr at org.apache.jetspeed.pipeline.valve.impl.ActionValveImpl.invoke(ActionValveImpl.java:75) at org.apache.jetspeed.pipeline.JetspeedPipeline.invokeNext(JetspeedPipeline.java:209) at org.apache.jetspeed.container.ContainerValve.invoke(ContainerValve.java:76) at org.apache.jetspeed.pipeline.JetspeedPipeline.invokeNext(JetspeedPipeline.java:209) at org.apache.jetspeed.profiler.impl.ProfilerValveImpl.invoke(ProfilerValveImpl.java:133) at org.apache.jetspeed.pipeline.JetspeedPipeline.invokeNext(JetspeedPipeline.java:209) at org.apache.jetspeed.security.impl.PasswordCredentialValveImpl.invoke(PasswordCredentialValveImpl.java:139) at org.apache.jetspeed.pipeline.JetspeedPipeline.invokeNext(JetspeedPipeline.java:209) at org.apache.jetspeed.security.impl.AbstractSecurityValve$1.run(AbstractSecurityValve.java:117)

RE: Why use Preferences for storing User Attributes?
Hi Frank, I understand a little bit of that part. I am in no way an expert but I will tell you what I understand. Say a user has --- prefName1=prefValue1 prefName2=prefValue2 In this case, prefName1 and prefName2 will be stored in PREFS_PROPERTY_KEY and prefValue1 and prefValue2 will be stored in PREFS_PROPERTY_VALUE. I have found that I will be able to live with this much knowledge because I can store my preferences in these tables, and I can retrieve them in my portlet.

Date: Wed, 9 Mar 2005 15:01:18 -0600 Hello all. As I'm trying to integrate a legacy user database with J2's SPI, I'm discovering all sorts of, shall we say ... stumbling blocks :-). I do understand the premise of how a User's attributes are accessed through the Request object ... however, I'm finding it incredibly unintuitive to decipher the J2 database structure (specifically user attribute instance values). Can someone please explain to me the purposes of the following specific tables ... and how they store user attribute values? - PREFERENCE_VALUE - PREFS_NODE - PREFS_NODE_PROPERTY_KEY - PREFS_PROPERTY_KEY - PREFS_PROPERTY_VALUE I have noted that the table USER_ATTRIBUTE stores the dynamic attribute names, but I'm trying to figure out how to store instances of attributes for individual users. Additionally, I do have a few non-standard attribute fields I'd like to store for each user ... and have no idea (from reading the docs or examining the DB model) of how to accomplish this. Any reason as to why a simple USER_ATTRIBUTE_VALUE table wasn't used instead? Being that a web site User is one of the central objects in a portal, seems to me that it would be best if customization of this aspect were kept simple? Just my 2 cents. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. - Frank - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

How can I remove the maximize and minimize buttons from the portlet title bar?? I know I can control the permission for edit and view the portlet. But is there a way to remove the maximize and minimize buttons also ?? Also, is there a way to get rid of the entire title bar, or we have to write a custom decorator for that? I roughly know the code for decorator and I have seen that there is no if loop checking for anything before the title bar so I guess we need a custom decorator to remove the title bar completely ??

Problem with - Create user portlet prefs_property_key table
Hi all, I have found following - I created a user with the create user portlet. Now I added user.name.given and user.name.family properties to the user. Now I understand that the values for these properties go to - prefs_property_value table. But the keys (user.name.given and user.name.family) are added to prefs_property_key table too. So in the prefs_property_key table I have two entries for each of above. (Because there is already one pair for the admin user). I know that the UI does not let you choose these properties from like a dropdown, or create new properties. To me it logically makes sense that there should only be one user.name.given and user.name.family entries in the prefs_property_key table, and then multiple values in the value table. I dont know if this is a problem, or I am misunderstanding something. Thanks, Amit - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: getting started
Hi Bernhard,
The build file that you showed earlier on this thread, is that the complete
build file that you have? I just happened to notice that it is missing the
entire DB configuration section. I would suggest take the same build file
that comes with the distribution and just copy it to your home directory and
rename it, and change the paths. This has always worked for me.
Let me know if you need any help ;)
Cheers,
Amit

no, i didn't so... the filename is build.properties...
what i don't understand is that also if i remove the build.properties from
my user home directory, the maven build process is successful... (anyway -
same error in the browser)...
did you use the build.properties file delivered in the .zip file? i created
my own, like it is told in the getting started manual... maybe i give it a

Subject: getting started
Date: Tue, 22 Feb 2005 00:07:46 +0100
hi all!
has somebody a detailed installation instruction for jetspeed 2?
i use windows xp
-tomcat 5.0.28
-maven 1.0.2
-java 1.4.2_03
i tried to follow the getting started instruction on the apache homepage
but
it doesn't work...
after following all steps, and trying to start jetspeed (in a browser), i
get a message: http error ?404? - servlet not available!
does someone know what to do?
i installed the components the following way:
firstly - java,
then - tomcat,
at last - maven
then i created the build.properties file and placed it under C:\Document
and Settings\User
first question:
when i enter the maven start.test.server command - i get a message:
'server.properties not found, using command line or default properties'
but the hsqldb server is running...
is this normal behavior?
- maven allClean allBuild seems to work fine;
when i stop the test.server and enter maven.start.production.server into
the
command prompt, i get the same 'server.properties not found,...'
message...
but also production.server is running;
maven quickstart maybe doesn't what it should, it creates the jetspeed
folder directly under the root directory - is there something wrong with
my build properties?
ok, i copy the jetspeed folder (also tried it with the .war file) under
the webapps directory; start up tomcat and enter the adress
http://localhost:8080/jetspeed into my browser... - but the portal doesn't
start - i only get the above described HTTP ERROR - servlet not
available...
thank you all for your help,
greetings, bernd

Re: J2 - Grouping Permissions with the JAAS implementation
Hi Randy, I have to control two things with the help of security model. 1. Allow/disallow/show different contents on a psml based on which user is logged on. (This is very easy to achieve with the security model of Jetspeed as you indicated.) 2. Enable/Disable contents on some individual portlets based on which user has logged on. (For example show some buttons and links on a page to only some users, and not to other users, show some text fields and labels to only some users and not to othersetc...) Now for this feature, should I use security_permission table, or I should just define a role and flag my components based on that role ... I couldn't find a way to access the security_permissions from within the portlet using the standard portlet api (it is probably custom jetspeed stuff ?? ...) . Also, there is a table - security_group_role on the schema. This table has zero records. The way the relations on this table are defined, I am confused as to why or how I would ever use this table.

Both solutions allow specification by group and role in addition to user principals. I am not sure exactly what you are using the 20-25 permissions to control, but I am guessing that your J2 needs are covered. For PSML based security, (aka bronco), poke around in the demo site files for security-constraint tags. There are also some docs on the site that David put together as well. For JAAS permissions style security, see the populate-userinfo-for-default-psml.sql script that configures similar access to the site content. To use JAAS, you will have to change the configuration of the CastorXMLPageManager component in page-manager.xml. One can also use BOTH mechanisms simultaneously if necessary. HTH, Randy With the security implementation of JAAS, I think in jetspeed there is a direct relation between user and permissions. Now in a scenerio that I have, I have a bunch of permissions that I group into a role, and then relate that to user. I think this facility is lacking in jetspeed. But I am not sure if this is the case, or I am missing something. This feature would be kind of essential because I have around 20 - 25 permissions and I have to change behaviours based on those permissions. The user_permission table of jetspeed would probably get really very big.

Use forward slash / instead of \. I think maven files have to use

J2 puts role, group, and user in a single security_principal table. - group_role Here you have a direct mapping to the security_group_role table. - user_group This table is analogous to the J2 security_user_group table which contains two FKs: one to the security_principal row for the user and the other to the security_principal row for the group.

J2 - Menu Navigation - Root Folder
Hi all, I studied the entire org.apache.jetspeed.profiler.ProfiledPageContext interface. Now I want to reach to the root folder. Ultimately I want to create a tree of everything that exists, but from what I can understand after reading the way interfaces are designed, I think I have to go backwards upto the root node, and then start listing each child. Now to reach the root folder, the best I could come up with is following macro. Would really appreciate if someone can suggest any better method ... #macro(getRootFolder $folder) #set($parent = $folder.getParent()) $parent #if($parent != /) #getRootFolder($parent) #end #end I would again like to mention that with those interfaces, it is really very convinient to list the child elements, and folders and stuff, but I am finding it a little bit tough to traverse my way up the tree to reach the grandest parent ...

I do need help with security implementation. I would really really appreciate help !! I have gone thru the SPI interfaces and was trying to understand them. In the meantime, I was preparing for a presentation tomorrow so I wanted to see if I can layout a proof of concept with Jetspeed2. But I definately need help with the security implementation. If you want, I can pose my question again --- I have following security tables -- Sha, I will map the current J2 tables to your tables as best I can. These are only my initial thoughts. I haven't implemented this solution to mapping your current security data model to J2. In general I think you have two alternatives: 1) Map your current security data model to the J2 classes by altering the security_repository.xml file. Security_repository.xml contains the mapping between the J2 security classes and the underlying data model. The advantage of this approach is that you would not have to change any code. You would know you were successful when all the tests ran. Some tests may still fail. For example, you appear to have no many-to-many relationship between users and roles. You will have to sort through relationships you are missing. Maybe the tests will still run. Perhaps you can still use the J2 table mappings where you have no equivalent. 2) Implement the following interfaces: GroupSecurityHandler, RoleSecurityHandler, UserSecurityHandler, CredentialHandler, and SecurityMappingHandler. You will note that the default implementations of these classes use a class called SecurityAccessImpl to do a lot of the actual JDBC work. You may have to change SecurityAccessImpl as well. This alternative seems pretty hard, close to the work involved in making LDAP implementations which I expect to take about a month given that you are already familiar with the underlying technology. I have done a cursory mapping below: - user (username, password, userid etc.) security_principal - Contains the user. Your username field should be mapped to the full_path column. security_credential - Contains the password. Password is the only type of credential in use as far as I can tell. Your current implementation stores the password on the user table. My ldap implementation does the same. - groups (groupid, groupname) security_principal - Contains the group, just mapped to a different class. Your groupname field should be mapped to the full_path column. - role (roleid, rolename) security_principal - Contains the role, just mapped to a different class. Your rolename field should be mapped to the full_path column. - permission (permissionid, permissionname) security_permission - Contains the security permissions. Your permissionname should map directly to the name column there. - role_permission Here you have a direct mapping the J2 security_principal_permission table. J2 puts role, group, and user in a single security_principal table. - group_role Here you have a direct mapping to the security_group_role table. - user_group This table is analogous to the J2 security_user_group table which contains two FKs: one to the security_principal row for the user and the other to the security_principal row for the group. Now I am sure my DBA is going to yell on him if I ask him to change these tables !!! And David Sean Taylor advised that a good way of doing this would be to implement my own SPI provider. But then the mailing list advised me to see if it is feasible to adapt my tables ... I am confused !! Help help !!! I guess I can start the conversation back in the original database question thread because I guess it woudl be misguiding to have this discussion under this thread ...

Re: Database Related Question
Hi Mike, I tried to evaluate that before, but I got confused with the Jetspeed security schema so thought of implementing my own SPI. There are some concepts that I dont understand with the Jetspeed2 security schema. If you can spare some time and clear my doubts, that would really help me. I dont understand the concept of full_path column on security_principal table. It looks like that column would logically fit to the user_name concept ?? ... Honestly speaking, I would think that my security model is very generic simple model so if JAAS is generic enough, and Jetspeed implements JAAS, I should be simply able to map my model somehow to JAAS model. If you think you can help me a little bit, here are the tables I have - user (probably can be broken into security_principal and security_credentials tables) permissions roles groups role_permission group_role user_group Another thing that slightly confuses me is that on jetspeed schema, user is linked to role, group as well as group and role have a cross-reference too.

Re: Database Related Question
Hi Mike, Thanks for your reply. I am pretty good with Maven and I feel pretty comfortable with the Spring Dependency Injection part (where we would define the bean constructors in XML file and let spring initialize the beans). I will probably have to read a lot regarding JAAS. It seems to be slightly different than Apache Fulcrum model. My security model has user, group, permission, role, permission_role, group_role, and user_group tables. I am having a little big tough time visualizing this with JAAS where there is subject and principal. (Probably there will be a 1-1 mapping between them in my JAAS model ... ??)

Re: J2-SSO
Thanks for your reply. I just clicked the reply button to the email, without noticing that the reply-to is set to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I really didn't have any intentions to direct the question to any individual users at all. Appologize for that ... (Usually the reply-to address is set to jetspeed mailing list email address) However I get a good idea from your answer. I am willing to create such migrator, and would be very excited if that could help the community ! I am reading more about the J2 Security stuff. If you want to give me some quick pointers where I should look, that could help ...

SSO is used to insert credentials for external applications into a request. If a user isn't authenticated (logged in) it doesn't have access to the SSO API. For your scenario you have to migrate your user table into Jetspeed-2 security tables. You could write a user synchronization portlet that reads your database and inserts new (no existing users) into jetspeed by calling into the security API. I think such a portlet would be of great benefit for the community since user migration is always an issue. Roger Shah Amit wrote: Hi Roger and Amit, Appreciate your helps ... I have a pretty dumb question along the same lines. I only have one web application that I want to port to Jetspeed2. So I dont think SSO would make sense in such scenerio.

If you have login pages but you like to bypass the login by providing the credentials you can use the SSOWebContent portlet or subclass the portlet and define in our implementation how the credentials should be passed to your login page. The SSO Management portlet allows you to create sites (URL) to your login pages and assign remote credential for a J2 user or group. I found it handy to define a group, add users to it and then define remote credential for that group. Any user belonging to that group will obtain the remote credential from the SSO store. I added some SSO documentation that can be found in design-docs/src/sso Roger Amit Soni wrote: Hi all, I already have three java based web application ready and all of them are using their own db. and all have their own user name and password now i want to integrate all of these applications in J2 and want to implement SSO within it.

Database Related Question
I have an existing database, and a website built on it. We are in a process of portalizing the website with Jetspeed2. Now I downloaded jetspeed2 and the DB that it creates has quite a lot of tables (atleast 30 - 40). Out of all of these tables, I do understand that security_XXX tables would probably be used by the JAAS Security module of jetspeed. But apart from those, which are the tables that I would have to preserve on my production database for jetspeed to work ?? Like, I know that there are lot of sample applications shipped with Jetspeed2, and lot of those applications might need their own tables. But if I were to remove all the sample applications shipped with J2, and only have the minimal skeleton of J2, what are the tables that I need to preserve ?? Any help would be very appreciated ...

Re: Can I use Hibernate with Jetspeed 2 ??
I have written a very simple portlet that uses hibernate on the backend to connect to DB with c3p0 connection pool. The portlet is very very simple. Just has a submit button on the front and when you click that button, it selects all records from a table and System.out's the records on console (or catalina.out). (I am working on making it do more as I get time) The table is the clubs table of the Database browser application that is shipped with jetspeed. Also I have used the Thread Local Session pattern at a very simple level which is sugggested by hibernate. I would like to share the portlet if anyone is interested. This way I can share the work and get more suggestions towards my approach. Please let me know if anyone is interested. I dont know if I can simply mail the portlet in a zip file attachment on this mailing list under this thread.

Can I use Jetspeed2 with Turbine ...
Also I am kindaa in an evaluation stage of Portal and what framework to use. If someone can give me some comparisions, I would really appreciate. I know that Jetspeed 2 is based on Spring Framework. Is it easy to use Spring Framework as the framework for my portlets with Jetspeed ?? Also some of my concerns with using Spring would be how easily are developers with expertise in Spring Framework available in market ?? I have worked quite a lot with Turbine Framework and Velocity and I know those pretty well, but I dont know if Jetspeed 2 supports Turbine :( Any helps, opinions very appreciated !!!

Re: Re:How to get Session in portlet
I think it is as follows. I dont think you can use forward, or redirect. PortletContext context = getPortletContext(); PortletRequestDispatcher rd = context.getRequestDispatcher(whatEverPage); rd.include(request, response); .include transfers control to that page. This is what the portlet specs say.

J2 JAAS
Hi All, I am trying to use JAAS provided by J2. Is there any documentation on how to use that ? I tried reading all the test examples they have and read all the code for security. here is my problem, when I follow JAAS client-side specification and try to use J2's JAAS. I get NULLPointer exception. this is because i dont instantiate userManager. Do i need to initialize this ? Is any one has example how to authenticate username and password with J2 JAAS.

Can I use Hibernate with Jetspeed 2 ??
Hi all, I tried to look up on google, but only found an article dated back in May that J2 will soon have Hibernate support. I would like to know if I can use Hibernate with J2. I dont know the best way to architect this, but if J2 doeesnot provide any inbuilt support and I have to write everything in my application, I guess that is fine too. I downloaded the code from CVS on 17th Jan. and there was a DB Browser application in that, but that doesnot work, and it probably looks like it is still not finished, and also it doesnot user Hibernate I think. Please advise !!! Thanks, Amit - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
