I’ve never used the skipModelNames property, but just eyeballing the code in 
ERXMigrator, it seems like it should be sufficient above to just set 
modelNames.  modelNames explicitly sets the list of models to migrate (in 
order).  If it’s not set, then you get all the models in the model group, in 
which case you might set skipModelNames to exclude one or more of them.  That 
is, it looks like there’s no need to exclude a model with skipModelNames if you 
don’t include it with modelNames, or settle for the default list.

Having said all of that, I would have expected what you’ve shown above to work 
as you intended.  (It should try and remove ERAttachment from the list 
containing just AppLevelModel, and then migrate just AppLevelModel.)  Are you 
sure those properties aren’t being over-ridden somewhere else?  Does the 
console dump of property values at launch time show those values above?

Ray, these insertions are not happening directly to LDAP. They are happening 
against a relational db which the app then subsequently utilizes to perform 
scheduled insertions into LDAP.

I will be looking at my JDBCPlugin to be sure something isn’t going afoul there.

Are you doing some things to this table in another app also? I may be
confused here. LDAP is handled by the JavaJNDIAdaptor framework.
References to the EO_PK_TABLE appear only in the JavaDJDBCAdaptor
framework.

I can see that there is code in the newPrimaryKeys() method in the
JDBCPlugin class that manipulates the EO_PK_TABLE. I do not see
anything similar in the primaryKeysForNewRowsWithEntity() method in the
JNDIChannel class. Since LDAP is not a relational database, what sort
of primary keys do you think are being used?

Insofar as LDAP has keys, they seem to be strings. So again, what would
the EO_PK_TABLE, which stores numbers, do with them?

Your info suggests that this sometimes works and sometimes does not. I
do not see how it would ever work. Any ideas?

ERMigration and skipModelNames

[Matt Ness]

Hi all,

I seem to be missing something with the wonder Property

er.migration.skipModelNames

If I have an application-level Model, say "AppLevelModel", which has an EO or 
two with relationships to a framework model, say "ERAttachment", and have the 
following Properties in the application:

er.migration.migrateAtStartup=true
er.migration.createTablesIfNecessary=true
er.migration.modelNames=AppLevelModel
er.migration.skipModelNames=ERAttachment


what should I expect to occur at runtime? As it stands, the migration process 
attempts to run the ERAttachment0 java class, which is not really what I want, 
and fails as those tables are already in the db. I perhaps naively expected all 
values in that property to be skipped.

This comes about (for me at least) when introducing the migration pattern into 
an existing application with a db schema already up and running. I obviously 
want to keep my db values in place and not have to 'start from scratch'.

Anyone used/using er.migration.skipModelNames? I have an (ugly) workaround, but 
I'd like to know if my understanding of the pattern is wrong.

Regards,

Matt

Re: EO_PK_TABLE and weird stuff

[Timothy Worman]

I haven’t done any maintenance lately and I’ve never done any individual table 
restores with this database - I always do full dumps. So it’s unlikely that any 
tables would individually have their state changed.

I checked the value yesterday to confirm that it properly incremented after a 
successful add of a record. It did - so I was relieved about that. It sits 
(properly) at 16667 right now.

Where is the code that handles this? Deep in the bowels of EOF or in the DB 
plug-in?

This usually happens to me when I restore database tables and forget about

EO_PK_TABLE and weird stuff

[Timothy Worman]

All:

This week I had something happen that I’d never experienced before. I had two 
EO’s get inserted without incrementing the pk value in EO_PK_TABLE. The app is 
a self-serve account creation tool that injects records into LDAP - so the EO 
is .

The last id’s to be used for this Person entity were:

16662   2014-06-25 13:57:33 -0700  
16663   2014-06-25 13:59:49 -0700  
16664   2014-07-02 08:25:37 -0700  
16665   2014-07-02 12:35:36 -0700

Jul 02 12:02:43PM I have a person trying to create a record for themselves and 
it attempts to use 16662 as the person_id. Then, at Jul 02 12:11:23PM, there is 
an attempt by the same person and the pk selected is 16663.

On the chance that this possibly continues to happen, where should I be looking 
to figure out what might be occurring here.

Re: App not starting from Monitor

[Gino Pacitti]

Hi Chuck
Must have been the reverse lookup and proper configuration of the wotaskd 
properties and webobjects adaptor…

Documentation is a bit vague when it comes to profiling configurations and so I 
muddled through… :-)
Thank goodness I am not a total newbie as it was not very straight forward…

All working now… And its on a virtualised system with Centos OS and all seems 
fast…

files from both WOTaskd SiteConfig.xml

I have an instance set up but it just will not start….

Won’t start (probably a permissions problem on the log file or path to log 
file) or Monitor does not see it start (communications problem).


There is no WOHost set in the application Properties file or WOPort setting.

I’d set the WOHost to the domain of the server.


I have debugging turned  on but it never creates the log file in location...

That does sound like a permission problem.

Any help in resolving this?

I presented some improvements to wotaskd and Monitor at WOWODC this year.  You 
can get the presentation from the community site and the code from 
https://github.com/chillatgvc/wonder/tree/WOWODC14

It provides much better debug and diagnostic information.  See if that sheds 
some light on your problem.

Re: App not starting from Monitor

[Gino Pacitti]

When using this URL:

http://domain1:1085/WebObjects/wotaskd.woa/wa/woconfig
and
http://domain2:1085/WebObjects/wotaskd.woa/wa/woconfig

I get an empty node?

This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. 
The document tree is shown below.


Does this help in debugging?

App not starting from Monitor

[Gino Pacitti]

Ok so I have 3 servers.

Server1 WOMonitor, WOTaskd, Apache2

Server2 WOTaskd, Apache2, WOApplications

Server3 Database


I have DNS and reverse look up on 2 domains. domain1.com points to Server1 and 
domain2 points to Server2

Server1 has the WOAdaptor loaded and has this setting in 

/etc/httpd/conf.d/webobjects.conf
WebObjectsConfig http://domain1.com:1085,http://domain2.com:1085 10

Properties file for wotaskd properties
/opt/Local/Library/WebObjects/JavaApplications/wotaskd.woa/Contents/Resources/Properties
WOHost=domain1.com


Server2 has the WOAdaptor loaded and has this setting in

/etc/httpd/conf.d/webobjects.conf
WebObjectsConfig http://domain1.com:1085,http://domain2.com:1085 10

/opt/Local/Library/WebObjects/JavaApplications/wotaskd.woa/Contents/Resources/Properties
WOHost=domain2.com



Using WOMonitor on Server1 I have both HOSTS set up and can view the config 
files from both WOTaskd SiteConfig.xml

I have an instance set up but it just will not start….

There is no WOHost set in the application Properties file or WOPort setting.

I have debugging turned  on but it never creates the log file in location...


Any help in resolving this?

Re: App not starting using 2 servers

[Gino Pacitti]

I did look at that page and I do have that configuration yet it does not go 
into the exact process to get wotaskd and womonitor and the apps to work 
together in unison. There are lots of commented out values that I don’t seem to 
have any documentation of how to set  in the scenario that I need.

i will try the reverse look up though and see if that sorts it out.
