David Sean Taylor resolved JS2-341.
-----------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Problem
Looks like Ate added similar support with the Jetspeed Diagnostics page, to
better provide stack traces and program state. I am going to close this as no
longer a problem
> Add State to Jetspeed Engine for Error Conditions
> -------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: JS2-341
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JS2-341
> Project: Jetspeed 2
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Components Core
> Affects Versions: 2.2.0
> Reporter: David Sean Taylor
> Assignee: David Sean Taylor
> Fix For: 2.2.2
>
>
> This feature addresses a 'user experience' problem: displaying stack traces
> to the end user. For example, If I change my database connection to a bad
> setting, and then try to hit the portal, I get this in my browser:
> javax.servlet.ServletException: Failed to initalize jetspeed.
> org.apache.jetspeed.exception.JetspeedException: Unable to create Engine
> org.apache.jetspeed.engine.JetspeedServlet.doGet(JetspeedServlet.java:206)
> javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:689)
> javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802)
> Ugly.
> I propose that the Jetspeed engine always completes initialization, even on
> error conditions. The engine will have 'state' attribute to determine if the
> engine is running or in
> engine.getState()
> returning states such as RUNNING, INITIALIZING, DOWN, ERROR
> Then a valve can check the engine state, and redirect to servlet pages based
> on the state, or pass thru on the RUNNING state.
> This leads to an interesting challenge: what if the database comes up?
> Should we just restart the app server?
> Thats certainly the easiest solution.
> A retry thread would be another solution
