I am wondering who uses the portal.properties setting:
org.jasig.portal.serialize.ProxyWriter.resource_proxy_enabled=on
This setting causes http imbedded content to be vended from the portal
vis https avoiding mixed content messages for media such as images. It
also wants to save and revend script elements. In our current YaleInfo
uPortal site we removed all the code that attempts to proxy scripts. I
had thought that the Jasig version had also removed that function but
it seems to still be there in 3.1. I would like to suggest we remove
it from the base code for 2 reasons:
- It feels like a bad idea to stash scripts in the web server file
space to re-vend as part of the portal (?)
- It doesn't seem to work. We got some bad html ouput that killed
numerous portal functions (like drag and drop) when ProxyWriter tried
to save js and serve them up via the proxyPortlet.
I have removed the offending code and will be going forward into
production without it. If people think it would be good to remove it
from uPortal for 3.2 I'd be happy to make the changes.
