Hi Will,

The comment at the beginning of http://jakarta.apache.org/turbine/turbine/turbine-2.3.2/services/security-service.html makes it clear that TorqueSecurityService (largely developed by Henning) is the way to go - I use this and it works just fine. I believe Thomas V. is working on porting this forward for Turbine 2.4 - please correct me if I am wrong on this point Thomas. Note that progress on 2.4 is proceeding at a glacial pace - this is not a complaint, just a realistic comment.

Jeffery Brekkie has just today confirmed a problem with Torque 3.3-RC2 that I ran into a couple of days ago whereby Torque initializes and then immediately shuts down. Jeffery has reverted to 3.3-RC1 to resolve this issue for now - I will do the same thing for my app tomorrow and raise the RC2 issue on tirque-dev.

DLL Hell for sure - I am just converting a project to Maven2 and have a few interesting version conflicts to somehow sort out.

Regards,

Scott

Hi,

I'm unexpectedly upgrading a large app to from Turbine 2.2 to 2.3.2
this weekend.  Kind of a pain but it's nice to be able to remove many
of the workarounds I have for quirks/bugs in the earlier version.

Question - I notice there are two different database security
services, DBSecurityService and TorqueSecurityService.   What's the
difference; which one is better maintained?  I assume that one is a
fork of the other.

A quick scan at the code and howto seems to indicate that
TorqueSecurityService would be the way to go -- is that hunch right?

As an aside, I started by upgrading from Velocity 1.4 to 1.5, which
due to a Commons Collection dependency forced me to upgrade Torque
from 3.0 to 3.3, which due to a Commons Configuration dependency
forced me to upgrade to Turbine 2.3.  Yes, I'm partially responsible
for upgrading Commons Collection in Velocity in the first place.  But
people talk about DLL Hell - there's a little of that with Commons too
:-)

Would appreciate tips.

Best, WILL
