max revision limit?
hi, friends I met a weird problem. so far , I use client API to version control file(checkin/checkout). the similar code is following: webdavResource.checkout() webdavResource.putmethod() webdavResource.checkin() I did it successfully in the first four times(version 1.0-1.4). But if I want to put the fifth version file(1.5) to slide, the process failed. I found that the putMehtod did upload the file, but checkout and checkin method didnot work well. I print out the statusMessage of webdavResource and get the following message: from checkout method: Conflick(409) from checkin mehtod :WARN HttpMethodBase:2059 - Response content length is not known Internal Server Error (500). did I do something wrong, or the slide just permit max 5 revision ? _ MSN Explorer: http://explorer.msn.com/lccn/ - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Need Help: Unexpected behaviour of slide 2.0 application
Hi,
I have deployed slide.war (binary version of slide 2.0) file on Websphere app server 5.1 with security and authentication
OFF.
It is deployed
successfully and I can also connect to the http://localhost:9080/slide
through
my network place.
When I connect
through network place first time I can see following folders
1.
actions
2.
files
3.
history
4.
workingresource
5.
workspace
I can see only these
folders as I have kept security and authentication OFF.
But now when I double
click on say files folders I am getting following messages
Websphere log
[9/1/04 13:36:50:909

One more strange thing is when I double click files
folder instead of getting blank list I am getting following
list of folders on my windows explorer (basically in network
place)
1.
actions
2.
history
3.
slide
4.
workingresource
5.
workspace
So my questions are
1.
Is
there any problem of XML encoding used by slide with WebSphere. If yes
what could be the possible resolution of the same.
And
if not then why it is giving such message that Failed to create a
writer with encoding: UTF-8 (I know this is a warning message and
not an error).
2.
Secondly
if everything is OK then why it is showing my list of folders when I double
click on files folder.
Please do helpful

Re: Can WebDAV servlet serve non-slide-managed filesystem?
Deploying an additional scope seems to work fine. It looks like I need to implement both RevisionDescriptorStore and RevisionDescriptorsStore. Deploying with the Transient versions deployed fine, but when trying to browse with the XP webdav client, I got RevisionNotFoundExceptions for the uri of the resource. So I tried just implementing RevisionDescriptorsStore.retrieveRevisionDescriptors( ) as it is in the JNDIPrincipalStore, but then I got Exceptions from TransientDescriptorStore which seems to depend on the existence of TransientDescriptorsStore (not sure about that one). So I stubbed out both RevisionDescriptorStore and RevisionDescriptorsStore. It looks like I need to implement RevisionDescriptorStore.retrieveRevisionDescriptor( ). I implemented a simple version that returns a new NodeRevisionDescriptor with its date properties set. My /files node shows up as a 0 byte file in my webdav browser, not a folder. I am not sure about how to propertly create a NodeRevisionDescriptor - which properties should be set folders, and which for files. Any hints? Am I off track here?

It will probably be easier, at least initialy, to have two store configured in your domain. Leave the default store in place with a scope of /, and add your store with a scope of /files. This way you won't have to mess with the data section of the domain, and you won't have to worry about returning ActionNodes. Once you have your store working you can decide how you want to handle the other information. It will probably be simplest to setup some basic permissions in your domain then map the webdav servlet to only server the /files node, but other options are available. -James alon salant wrote: Okay, I've partially answered one of my questions.

I have the slide WebDAV servlet configured and starting up without errors and with directory browsing turned on.

RE: History of history URI naming
Hello Warwick, Actually, according to the deltaV spec and from what I've seen in my Slide limited past experience, whenever we create a new resource, a new history node must be created. It doesn't really matter if the resource shares the same URI. That raises a problem witch is, how to garbage-collect the orphan nodes? The spec does not mandate any action on these nodes, and Slide seems to it likewise: seems like that client should take an option, on how to handle them properly. Best regards, Miguel Figueiredo Hi, I haven't investigated this real deeply but I was wondering if there a reason why the structure of the /history folder doesn't mirror the hierarchy in the content space? eg. for a file /files/fileA the history folder would be /history/files/fileA with the fileA versions under it. Is it because the delta-v spec says that you can't delete the VHRs for a VCR even when the VCR is deleted? And so if the VHRs are left around and you try to create a new file with the same name and path after deleting it the first then the old history would still be around and mess things up?

Confirmation for defect 30902?
Hi, I was wondering if someone would confirm a defect that I still see in the 2.1B1 release. This is related to defect number 30902 lock for space separated paths not found that I've submitted a fix for. Using the CLI I've created a collection called my stuff and uploaded a file to it called testf. I then locked the file with the options -o1 -sexclusive -tinf and then check that the lock has worked with the locks command. It did. When I try to unlock the file with -o1 I get a 200 code back but there is a message saying failed and the file is still locked. I'm running on windows 2000 sp4. The reason for this is that in LockMethod.parseResponse() the lock is being added to the lock hashmap by WebdavState.addLock() with the escaped URI of the file as the hash key. ie. the space is escaped with %20. The call that returns this escaped URI to use with addLock() is org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpMethodBase.getPath() which (from the javadoc for the corresponding setPath() method) returns a raw (escaped) path -- or at least it expects it to be escaped if necessary by the caller. So when looking for the lock in WebdavResource.unlockMethod() we use the unescaped URI to check for the existence of the lock in the hashmap when calling WebdavState.getLock(). The lock was put in the hashmap with the escaped URI as the key so its not found. The solution is to always use the same hash key. Either the escaped or unescaped URI. In my fix I chose the unescaped URI as that is most commonly used in the client and I'd only seen this one case where addLock() was called with an escaped path. Funny enough we do find the lock entry in WebdavState.discoverLock() when we process the locks that come back from the lockdiscovery property call in WebdavResource.unlockMethod(). And we don't add a second lock entry for the same token because in the second call to WebdavState.addLock() the addLock code checks for the existence of this locktoken by checking for its value, not by the hash key.

unlocking locks owned by others
Can any user unlock another user's locks? I didn't think that was valid. What I'm seeing in 2.1B1 is that any user (the default for the CLI being called Slide) can unlock a lock owned by another user. I worked my way through the client piece of the puzzle and I see that it is setting the locktoken in the header of the unlock request. But I don't see where its setting the owner? eg. to server --- UNLOCK /slide/files/my%20stuff/outf HTTP/1.1 If: (opaquelocktoken:600107b7c611f08d4bf10af71e6d3a3f) User-Agent: Jakarta Commons-HttpClient/2.0rc3 Host: localhost:20080 Cookie: $Version=0; JSESSIONID=D1E5A4582544A30F431FFE72C628DEEB; $Path=/slide Content-Length: 0 Is it supposed to set the owner information in the request header so that the server knows who is trying to do the unlock and can compare it to the lock owner? I've still to look into the server side. I'm running my configuration with security disabled but locks enabled in slide.properties.

Re: Confirmation for defect 30902?
Yes, I confirm this defect. In fact we fixed it locally the same way you did. We were seen this problem quite often since we are testing japanese characters in paths. We also wonder why the check in addLock() is based on the value, not the key. Is it because if binding is being used a given resource may have several URLs? But in that case, unlockMethod should also search locks by value to be consistent. BTW, supporting japanese required adding lots of workarounds for MS Webfolders. Some versions of japanese WebFolders send paths encoded inconsistently in UTF8 or Shift_JIS, sometimes even unescaped. We basically had to auto-detect the encoding and escaping of the URLs sent by WebFolders.

There is a permission for unlocking other user's locks. If security is disabled, no checks are done, which means anybody can unlock any lock. Also, my understanding is that the owner element in the lockMethod request is only informational. (The spec says it may contain phone number or home page of owner). A lock is identified only by the lock token and the principal owner of the token is determined by the current user (the user that was authenticated on login). Similarly, unlock uses the current session user as the principal requesting the unlock. Carlos - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Confirmation for defect 30902?
Hi Carlos, I've submitted a fix for the problem and hope to see it added to the HEAD soon. The only reason I can think of for addLock() searching by locktoken is that with shared locks its possible for multiple locks with different lock tokens to be set on the same uri. So when they're looking to see whether to add a locktoken they get back from a propfind on the lock discovery property then they have to key off the locktoken to be sure they don't add the same locktoken twice -- since its perfect valid to have multiple locks on the same uri. And when getting locks for various purposes the client uses the owner that they're given (or Slide) by default to key off which of the set of tokens that comes back from getLock() apply for the target owner and target resource.

I then locked the file with the options -o1 -sexclusive -tinf and then check that the lock has worked with the locks command. It did. When I try to unlock the file with -o1 I get a 200 code back but there is a message saying failed and the file is still locked. I'm running on windows 2000 sp4. The reason for this is that in LockMethod.parseResponse() the lock is being added to the lock hashmap by WebdavState.addLock() with the escaped URI of the file as the hash key. ie. the space is escaped with %20. The call that returns this escaped URI to use with addLock() is org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpMethodBase.getPath() which (from the javadoc for the corresponding setPath() method) returns a raw (escaped) path -- or at least it expects it to be escaped if necessary by the caller. So when looking for the lock in WebdavResource.unlockMethod() we use the unescaped URI to check for the existence of the lock in the hashmap when calling WebdavState.getLock(). The lock was put in the hashmap with the escaped URI as the key so its not found. The solution is to always use the same hash key. Either the escaped or unescaped URI. In my fix I chose the unescaped URI as that is most commonly used in the client and I'd only seen this one case where addLock() was called with an escaped path. Funny enough we do find the lock entry in WebdavState.discoverLock() when we process the locks that come back from the lockdiscovery property call in WebdavResource.unlockMethod(). And we don't add a second lock entry for the same token because in the second call to WebdavState.addLock() the addLock code checks for the existence of this locktoken by checking for its value, not by the hash key.

RE: unlocking locks owned by others
Ok, that sounds like a good place to start. I'll investigate tomorrow to see whether my turning security off caused the change in behaviour. Thanks. And although the spec may say the lock owner is informational Slide's behaviour was to enforce locks and I hope that it will do the same again once I enable security (or work around it). Weird thing is that during one run of the slide server locks were getting enforced. The next time I started the server after submitting some changes I had just added to my tree they weren't :-) It certainly seems to be config related.

I didn't think that was valid. What I'm seeing in 2.1B1 is that any user (the default for the CLI being called Slide) can unlock a lock owned by another user. I worked my way through the client piece of the puzzle and I see that it is setting the locktoken in the header of the unlock request. But I don't see where its setting the owner? eg. ... Is it supposed to set the owner information in the request header so that the server knows who is trying to do the unlock and can compare it to the lock owner? I've still to look into the server side. I'm running my configuration with security disabled but locks enabled in slide.properties. Isn't it because security is disabled? There is a permission for unlocking other user's locks. If security is disabled, no checks are done, which means anybody can unlock any lock. Also, my understanding is that the owner element in the lockMethod request is only informational. (The spec says it may contain phone number or home page of owner). A lock is identified only by the lock token and the principal owner of the token is determined by the current user (the user that was authenticated on login). Similarly, unlock uses the current session user as the principal requesting the unlock.

Re: Can WebDAV servlet serve non-slide-managed filesystem?
'twould be nice were this easier (or at least better documented). It looks like you're on the right track, though. I think you'll need to set the DAV:resourcetype property at a minimum. Relevant line from JNDIPrincipalStore: props.put( DAV:resourcetype, new NodeProperty(resourcetype, resourceType, DAV:, , false)); I'm not positive, but I think the key for the hashtable (props) is significant. Other than that there are a few properties you'll probably want to return for files (size, modification date, etc). -James alon salant wrote: Deploying an additional scope seems to work fine. It looks like I need to implement both RevisionDescriptorStore and RevisionDescriptorsStore. Deploying with the Transient versions deployed fine, but when trying to browse with the XP webdav client, I got RevisionNotFoundExceptions for the uri of the resource. So I tried just implementing RevisionDescriptorsStore.retrieveRevisionDescriptors( ) as it is in the JNDIPrincipalStore, but then I got Exceptions from TransientDescriptorStore which seems to depend on the existence of TransientDescriptorsStore (not sure about that one). So I stubbed out both RevisionDescriptorStore and RevisionDescriptorsStore. It looks like I need to implement RevisionDescriptorStore.retrieveRevisionDescriptor( ). I implemented a simple version that returns a new NodeRevisionDescriptor with its date properties set. My /files node shows up as a 0 byte file in my webdav browser, not a folder. I am not sure about how to propertly create a NodeRevisionDescriptor - which properties should be set folders, and which for files. Any hints? Am I off track here?

It will probably be easier, at least initialy, to have two store configured in your domain. Leave the default store in place with a scope of /, and add your store with a scope of /files. This way you won't have to mess with the data section of the domain, and you won't have to worry about returning ActionNodes. Once you have your store working you can decide how you want to handle the other information. It will probably be simplest to setup some basic permissions in your domain then map the webdav servlet to only server the /files node, but other options are available. -James alon salant wrote: Okay, I've partially answered one of my questions. Playing around and reading the config more carefully, I replaced the sample data element configuration with data objectnode classname=org.apache.slide.structure.SubjectNode uri=/ permission action=all subject=all inheritable=true/ /objectnode /data and can now directory browse through the webdav servlet. All I see is an empty root directory which is what I expect based on my initial SimpleFileStore implementation. Mapping a web folder from win xp is claiming that the folder you entered does not appear to be valid but I have not looked in to this yet. I am curious to know what of of the namespace configuration element is required for what I am trying to do.

I did find that retrieveObject( ) needs to return an ActionNode not SubjectNode for NamespaceConfig.getActionNode( ) which was being called in slide startup. I was getting a ClassCastException. So should I always return an ActionNode from retrieveObject( )? What's the difference from a SubjectNode? I have the slide WebDAV servlet configured and starting up without errors and with directory browsing turned on.
