Hi,

My apologies for the second email but something has just occurred to me. As, when the SM filter is after the Magnolia filter the content managed pages get decorated correctly and it is only AdminCentral that does not
get decorated then does it make sense to say that the SM filter should
be left after the Magnolia filter? If that is the case then the question
is why AdminCentral does not get decorated. Unfortunately there are no
errors as SM does not even appear to get called.

What surprises me in this scenario is that regular Magnolia pages would be decorated too.

Re: your previous email:
What the error message below says, and the stacktrace demonstrates, is that your decorator jsp file is trying to use Magnolia code, while the context is not set. This happens because the decoration happens outside the Magnolia filter chain. Remove the cmsu:simpleNavigation usage from your decorator, and this should work.

If you need to use Magnolia content in your decorator itself, you probably have no other choice than to setup the SM filter inside the Magnolia filter chain (config:/server/filters); which will in turn mean you'll probably have to setup bypasses for your other applications in there too.

Cheers,

Well, I am not sure what has changed but I now have a different problem. The problem I am now seeing was intermittent before but is now continual
(I did a clean redeploy). The error (below) happens whenever the
SiteMesh filter is placed before the Magnolis filter. If the SiteMesh
filter is put after Magnolia filter then AdminCentral functions
perfectly but is undecorated. The error occurs in the method of
info.magnolia.context.MgnlContext.AggregationState() which is:

public static AggregationState getAggregationState() {
       final WebContext ctx = getWebContextOrNull();
       if (ctx != null) {
           return ctx.getAggregationState();
       } else {
           throw new IllegalStateException("Can only get the
aggregation state within a WebContext.");
       }
   }

where ctx is null which is because ThreadLocal.get() is returning null
but to be honest I don't really understand what ThreadLocal.get()
actually does.

Hi again,

Haaa this is getting frustrating, because I've been willing to integrate Sitemesh and Magnolia ever since I started working with the latter (and
had to abandon previous projects using the former)

Hopefully helpful suggestions inline:

Thanks for the additional ideas. I have tried them as far as I could and
could not get it to work.

The use case is that the site has several web applications running on it
(Apache Roller , MVNForum, Magnolia as well as a custom core that
provides site specific facilities). The public and admin sections of
each of those application is SiteMesh decorated and so it would keep
everything looking the same if the Magnolia AdminCentral was also
decorated. The decorators also contain the shared navigation sections
and so if a user enters AdminCentral they loose all the navigation
elements that let them easily move between the different applications.

Makes a lot of sense.


I added the following:

Server/filters/bypasses
Content-node: sitemesh-decorator
data-node: class => info.magnploa.voting.voters.URIStartsWithVoter
data-node: pattern: => /prosoc-view/decorator

Providing the typo was only in the email and not in your config, this
looks correct.

I have looked at the source in the browser and then called each of the
JS files in turn. Non of them are decorated and all are present
including the:

/.magnolia/pages/javascript.js

I mention that file specifically because when SiteMesh is active and I
call /magnolia/trees/website.html I get an error in the JavaScript
console saying that 'MgnlTextField' could not be found. This JavaScript call is called from near the bottom of website.html and the function is
defined in javascript.js.

That could indicate what I was suspecting about Sitemesh rearranging the
script tags in the <head> - see below.


I have added:

<excludes>
  <pattern>*.js</pattern>
</excludes>

to the decorators.xml file.

You mentioned:

"Depending on your decorator/configuration, it might also be that
Sitemesh tries to reorganize the script tags, for instance. If I
remember correctly from when I used it before, it's sort of its default
behaviour, because you'll usually want to insert stuff in the <head>
tags. Can you disable that? Or bypass it altogether for the whole
/.magnolia and /.resources, for instance ?"

but I didn't really understand how to do that.

Well - I don't really know either, been quite a while since I used
Sitemesh.
What I seem to remember is that you could feed it with a page that has, for instance, <script> and <style> tags lying around in the <body> tag, and Sitemesh would nicely rearrange them inside the <head> tag of the page.
If that happens, there might be a few bits and pieces that don't work
anymore (typically, inline javascript within the page that would expect to have some methods or object available - if the order of the scripts
is modified, things might start to get hairy)

Could you compare the results of an undecorated and decorated
/.magnolia/trees/website.html with that in mind ?

When I put the SiteMesh filter before the magnolia filter I frequently
get:

MgnlContext is not set for this thread
<...>
To understand what goes wrong there, we'd need a few more lines of the
exception - could you attach a sample to your email, or paste it on
nopaste.org ? If your Magnolia instance runs fine on its own (without
SM), I can't really see why this would happen with SM --- at least not
without more details or trying out myself ...

If you have any other ideas then I would be happy to try them but as I
am out of things to try then I will probably leave AdminCentral
undecorated for now. Thanks for your previous suggestions.

Is there a chance we could see your decorator.jsp; maybe it'd remind me
a few other things I forgot about SM...

Cheers,

Gavin,

Something hit me: your decorator jsp itself might be going through the Magnolia filters (by default, it's mapped to / and with dispatchers on request, forward AND include) - maybe try adding a bypass for it in the
global bypasses at /server/filters/bypasses ?

I had the SiteMesh filter after the Magnolia filter but if I move it in front I get some partial success. The decorator is applied but there is
an error:

java.lang.IllegalStateException: MgnlContext is not set for this thread

and the login screen loads with parts of the decorator applied but most of it is missing. If I then login I get the following shown in Firefox:

Content Encoding Error
The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because it uses an
invalid or unsupported form of compression.

I have not been successful in turning off compression in Magnolia to

if that solves this second problem. I have tried to delete the gzip
nodes from:

Config => server => filters => gzip

Config => server => filters => gzip => bypasses => contentAllowed =>
allowed

Config => modules => cache =>config => compression => voters
=>contentType => allowed

But the content still came out with gzip compression. The server does not have compression enabled so I have no idea where it comes from.

Is your sitemesh filter before or after Magnolia's? This might be
due to
how requests that end up in the admincentral servlets treat the filter
chain - can you try to see if /.magnolia/trees/website.html gets
decorated, for example ? Or a simpler page such as
/.magnolia/pages/configuration.html ?

The fact that the login form does not get decorated might be due to
the
fact that sitemesh treats pages differently depending on the http
response code ? (i really don't know if it does, just wild guessing)

Thanks for taking the time to reply.

I am trying to get AdminCentral decorated with SiteMesh. Currently AdminCentral is not decorated at all. I took a look at the source and see that past the login screen a single iframe is used. However, the
login screen does not seem to use frames and it still is not
decorated.
I added the following to my sitemesh.xml file:

<mapper
class = "com .opensymphony.module.sitemesh.mapper.FrameSetDecoratorMapper">


        <param name="decorator" value="prosoc-cms-admin" />
</mapper>

Where 'prosoc-cms-admin' is the name of the decorator in the
decorator.xml file. My web.xml uses:

<filter>
    <filter-name>sitemesh</filter-name>
<filter-class>com.opensymphony.sitemesh.webapp.SiteMeshFilter</ filter-class>



</filter>

<filter-mapping>
    <filter-name>sitemesh</filter-name>
    <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
    <dispatcher>REQUEST</dispatcher>
    <dispatcher>FORWARD</dispatcher>
</filter-mapping>

I am not sure why AdminCentral does not get decorated. Any
suggestions
are certainly welcome.

Hi Gavin,

Any specifics on what the problem(s) is/are ? What are you trying to achieve specifically ? I suppose you've noticed the admincentral is
built with frames.. and I seem to remember Sitemesh had
frame-specific
features/configuration, did you check that ?

I have added magnolia onto an existing web app so that it can

(blog,
forum etc) and so Sitemesh is used for decoration. I have added
SiteMesh

pages
in AdminCentral and also for the public instance. I have not been successful in getting SiteMesh to decorate the actual AdminCentral
itself though (either public or author) and can't think of any
reason
why. The SiteMesh decorator is simply:

<decorator name="prosoc-cms" page="decorator-prosoc-cms.jsp">

Does anyone have any suggestions or has can say they have
successfully
managed to decorate AdminCentral?
