There has been some minor bugs in permission-related SQL for Oracle but this was recently fixed both on the 2.1 release branch and in CVS HEAD.

I can store String object using this example http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-slide/Sample_API_application, but nothing more. Do you know how it works? If you can serialize your objects, you can use Java serialization to byte array or ObjectOutputStream/ObjectInputStream and store the contents by calling: void store(SlideToken token, String strUri, NodeRevisionDescriptor revisionDescriptor, NodeRevisionContent revisionContent) The NodeRevisionContent is the Slide API object carrying the content itself and you need to attach content to it like so: NodeRevisionContent content = new NodeRevisionContent(); content.setContent(bytes[] or char[] or Reader or InputStream); To understand how to use the API it's a good idea to browse through different methods in the WebDAV servlet implementation. Or you can try WCK for an API that might be easier to digest than the full Content / Storage etc in Slide.

I have a reproducable case where Slide from CVS HEAD (pre-2.2) deadlocks if permissions for two stores are configured to the same DB through DBCP pools in each store. (My usage pattern is that I share permissions in DB but have content for one URL-tree on disk and content for another URL-tree in RDBMS.) When Slide loads the initial permissions entries from Domain.xml on a blank DB it will deadlock when it tries to grant permission on one store and calls assertUri for the root note just created by the other store. I haven't had time to debug this further or work on a patch, but you can easily verify if your condition is similar by starting Tomcat in JPDA debug mode, attach a debugger with the Slide source code available and check if the deadlock is in a executeUpdate call to your JDBC driver called from grantPermission and assertUri on top of that in the stack.

if you add a symlink /usr/share/tomcat5/conf = /etc/tomcat5 and set
CATALINA_HOME=/usr/share/tomcat5 in your environemtn you might get a bit
further.
Another thing might be that the JAAS conf have to be named according to the Ant-

would
suggest splitting that file into tomcat5.conf and jaas.config and rolling out
the patch you did to the Ant-script (ie the change of
${CATALINA_HOME}/conf/jaas.config into /etc/tomcat5/tomcat5.conf).
The reason that your jpackage Ant did not work is probably because you were
missing some optional tasks, like patch for example. There is an optional
jpackage bundle which adds many misc tasks like XSLT etc, you could try that
bundle and see if it helps you getting going without a src-build of Ant.
(I don't remember the bundle name, but you should be able to get it now
that you know what to look for...)
Running Ant with the debug flag (-d or -debug) will tell you exactly why it
fails (and LOTS more, so you only want it for troubleshooting).

A simple approach is to put log4j.properties in your CLASSPATH (eg

Example log4j.properties (change CONSOLE to LOGFILE for the

adjust the WARN level to suit your verbosity needs):

In a production environment you will probably want to integrate these
settings in an existing log4j.properties or log4j.xml and deploy it
in a JAR/WAR.
(Just remember to remove it from WEB-INF/classes since that one has higher
classloading prio and can confuse you for long.) ;-)

That's similar to what the Cocoon Flowscript implemented solution I mentioned do, but this is unfortunately not freestanding enough to package as a separate workflow handling so I can't help you with code (and I guess you are not using Flowscript as controller logic anyway). But just to get you started: it's not much code reuqired to implement something like this on your own on top of Slide. Slide kernel gives you all the access control you need and since repository nodes in Slide can have arbitrary properties, you can easily define your own property for workflow state, preferrably outside of the DAV: namespace. You also mentioned a notification scheme, which would of course also have to be implemented by something else than Slide.

I think it's easier for you to do things the other way around: 1) learn Microsoft Exchange specifications for submitting the mail via WebDAV 2) see how you can use the Slide WebDAV client lib to do this If you don't know exactly what #1 is all about you will have a really hard time working out #2...

I think you misunderstood me.
Yes, after reading your explanaition I see that I did.
It´s not about sending emails by webdav, it´s about connecting by webdav to
exchange and then sending an email.
Then the Slide WebDAV-client library should be able to help you.
JavaDoc for the API is available here:
http://jakarta.apache.org/slide/clientjavadoc/index.html

Code-snippet to get an idea of where to start
(extracts content from a WebDAV resource, meta-code - not complete):
HttpURL url = new HttpURL(remoteUrl);
InputStream result = null;
InputStream webdavStream = null;
try {
Credentials cred = null;
if (user != null) {
cred = new UsernamePasswordCredentials(user, password);
}
WebdavResource remoteResource = new WebdavResource(url, cred,
WebdavResource.NOACTION, DepthSupport.DEPTH_0);
webdavStream = remoteResource.getMethodData();
if (webdavStream != null) {
result = new BufferedInputStream(webdavStream, HTTP_CHUNK_SIZE);
}
} catch (HttpException httpe) {
// handle HttpException
} catch (IOException ioe) {
// handle IOException
} finally {
if (result == null webdavStream != null) {
try {
webdavStream.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
// handle IOException
}
}
// TODO: check API if removeResource.close() kills result stream,
// if not it should probably be called here
I know I have to extract some kind of mail submission URI (typical
complicated ms stuff ;) ) to use to send the email.
This sound MS Exchange specific...
And I think I got this URi ... but I don´t know how to use it to send
emails.
OK, then try to connect to the URI with the Slide WebDAV client.
The exact WebDAV-methods used to send the mails is also Exchange-specific
and you will have to try Microsoft resources for more info on that.

Martin

Slide is a repository kernel and WebDAV client/server library [*], so I think your chances are slim to actually send e-mails with Slide. :-) You probably want to go here: http://java.sun.com/products/javamail/ Regards, Martin [*] For the full what is Slide? see homepage http://jakarta.apache.org/slide/, section Overview. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Slide installation problem
Paul Dorman wrote: am I missing something or does the /webapps/slide not get created any more when extracting the jakarta-slide-2.1-tomcat-5.0.28.tar.gz file? I notice only the slide.war file is there in the /webapps directory, not the directory. If you use default Tomcat settings, the WAR should be deployed/unpacked automatically. If you have production settings (ie not polling for new WAR-files to deploy), you can use the Tomcat Manager or Deployer applications to deploy the WAR. See the Tomcat manual for more info on this. (Like JAR, a WAR is just a ZIP with some metadata info, so you can spy on the contents with jar or any unzip-capable program.)

Re: Problems in adding user
Sandeep wrote: Hi, i am new as far as using slide is concerned. I am having problems in creating users using DAVExplorer. The user created using DAVExplorer cannot log into SLIDE unless and untill i add it to tomcat-user.xml. Is there any way where in i can add users without making the changes to tomcat-user.xml. And if there is no way of adding user for SLIDE w/o making changes to tomcat-user.xml, then is there a way where in the changes are automatically reflected in the xml file and i dont have to mannually make the entries for the user. Tomcat handles authentication (letting someone in) and Slide handles authorization (determining what authenticated users can do). See http://jakarta.apache.org/slide/howto-acl.html for some more details on each. To make Tomcat use Slide for getting it's users and roles for authentication, you can change Tomcat's default UserDatabaseRealm into wrappers.catalina.SlideRealm (this is the setup in the Slide+Tomcat bundle), or use JAAS authentication as described here: http://jakarta.apache.org/slide/howto-jaas.html See also FAQ Where do I configure authentication and security?: http://jakarta.apache.org/slide/faq.html There is a good hand-on example of configuring Tomcat+Slide here: http://wiki.osafoundation.org/bin/view/Chandler/SlideInstallation Regards, Martin - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
