Yes, thanks. I've tested using manual proxy options and it worked without

I think it is already possible to configure a proxy. And in case no proxy is 
configured in the office the system proxy is used as far as I know. Maybe we 
have a minor problem here with the new WebDAV/http implementation.

But in general a proxy can be configured.

 The update service for installed OOo 3.3 instance has not be
 established,
 yet.

my
redirect, everything worked as expected and I received a message saying

Worked very nicely for me using AOO 3.4. Will try later with an OOo 3.3
machine when it is awake. Congratulations!



Thanks for the test.

The update service for installed OOo 3.3 instance has not be established,
yet.

Best regards, Oliver.



Hi. I tried here in my office, through an authenticated proxy. It works,
but it asks for the proxy user and password many times, even if I check the
"Enable password" option.



Hm..
As far as I know only one HTTP GET request is performed internally by AOO 3.4.
May be due to the redirects more requests are made - I'll have to check it.


I have checked it.
Due to the redirect three HTTP GET request are performed.
The first goes to 
http://update38.services.openoffice.org/ProductUpdateService/check.Update, the 
second to 
http://openoffice.org/projects/update38/ProductUpdateService/check.Update and 
the final one to 
http://www.openoffice.org/projects/update38/ProductUpdateService/check.Update

The same URLs that Andrea already figured out.


I think the "Remember password" option is part of your proxy software. Thus, I
do not think that its functionality is related to AOO 3.4.



May be each HTTP GET request needs to be authenticated in your proxy software.

Best regards, Oliver.

Works for me but the URLs are different. I had redirected openoffice.org
(notice, no www) to another host and I kept getting an error, so I investigated.

As one can see with wget, the current redirect is
http://update38.services.openoffice.org/ProductUpdateService/check.Update
->
http://openoffice.org/projects/update38/ProductUpdateService/check.Update
->
http://www.openoffice.org/projects/update38/ProductUpdateService/check.Update
which works but is probably not the cleanest way. Also, it would likely be the
first resource we use that depends on http://openoffice.org instead of
http://www.openoffice.org (in Oracle times, the first one was used for Kenai
resources, the second one was the website).



Thanks for testing.

I was not aware of the difference between  and 
.
In the JIRA issue INFRA-4830 I had requested a redirect from [2] to [1].
But I got in direct contact with the infrastructure team on its IRC channel 
#asfinfra in order to get guidance. The infrastructure team reacted quite fast - 
they immediately established the redirect. I am not sure, if I had requested the 
same redirect to openoffice.org/... or to www.openoffice.org/... in the IRC 
chat. I will check it this the infrastructure team.

which works but is probably not the cleanest way. Also, it would likely 
be the first resource we use that depends on http://openoffice.org 
instead of http://www.openoffice.org (in Oracle times, the first one was 
used for Kenai resources, the second one was the website).

 Static files would be possible, because each version has its own update
 service
 URL, but it would be not the best solution for the long-term.
 Thus, some server-based logic would make sense.

 I am currently in preparation of a proposal for an update service for
 OOo 3.3
 installations. Here, I can/will demonstrate how a server-based logic
 would look
 like.

  Can somebody make this happen?

 If nobody objects, I would go for this short-term and static approach
 and would
 ask via JIRA request for Infra, if the redirect to the already existing
 static
 file can be established.

Thanks for the test.

Yes, infrastructure is very kind.

One little question: On which operating system do you have your AOO 3.4
instance running.

Yes, I have already seen the "old" strings.


Best regards, Oliver.

Hi,

From my point of view it would make sense to reactivate a simple
update
service for AOO 3.4.

The update URL for AOO 3.4 is:
http://update38.services.openoffice.org/ProductUpdateService/check.Update

(plus a query part ?pkgfmt= for non-Windows platforms)

As this URL resolves to nothing, the user currently gets the
following
response from the update functionality in AOO 3.4:
Status: Checking for an update failed.
Description: General Internet error has occurred.

I propose provide the following XML document when a HTTP GET
request to the
above given URL is made:

http://installation.openoffice.org/description";>


Kay already made such an XML document available at:
http://www.openoffice.org/ProductUpdateService/check.Update

This response would allow the update functionality in AOO 3.4 to
return to
the user that the version is up to date.

Thus, to reactivate an working update service for AOO 3.4 a
redirection is
needed.



Are proposing that we just have a static XML file and redirect the
requests so it loads that static file?



Yes, as a short-term and fast solution.


I can see that as being a useful short-term solution. But soon we'll
need some more complicated logic, right? For example, when we enable
the 3.3. update check, we'll need to know that updates are available
for some languages, but not others. Can we do that all with
redirection to static files? Or do we need server-based logic, i.e.,
a cgi script?

just always points to the "no update available" XML for AOO 3.4. But
then we make it more complicated as we go.



I am currently in preparation of a proposal for an update service
for OOo 3.3
installations. Here, I can/will demonstrate how a server-based logic

If we just redirect to a static file, I think you can just enter a
JIRA request for Infra. If we go with a cgi script then we need
someone to develop that script first.



If nobody objects, I would go for this short-term and static
approach and would
ask via JIRA request for Infra, if the redirect to the already
existing static
file can be established.



Ok, let us drive this issue a little bit more.

For the static and short-term update service for AOO 3.4 I will do
the following:
- Creation of HTTP resource [1] provided the above given simple XML
document


Done.


- Asking ASF Infrastructure via corresponding JIRA issue to redirect
HTTP GET
requests for URL [2] (Update URL of AOO 3.4) to URL [2]


Done - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-4830



The infrastructure team was reacting very fast.
The redirect is established.

Thus, please check in your AOO 3.4 installation, if the update
functionality returns that your installation is up to date.

Thanks in advance, Oliver
