OK, you mean, ofbiz services are exposed and consumed by Flex, but that is
soap over http right ?

Where does the JSON format data comes into picture ? or how the services
outputs JSON data ?

or am I missing something ?

Re: Split shipment feature is gone on current 9.04 checkout screen(s)

2010-02-01 Thread Rishi Solanki

Ruth,
The multiform checkout was implemented as per covering all the possible
functionality which may be on any site, then quick checkout is encrypt its
some of the functionality and finally the one page is the most encrypted
demo to do checkout in which many functionality are not covered
intentionally. From your email it seems you are looking for the split
shipment in One page checkout which is not available at all there. If you
want that functionality there then yes you should create a Jira for that but
as it is a new feature then it won't be go into release 9.04 it will be new
implementation for trunk only.

We are exporting some services with REST. Each one has to be manually

It would be nice to develop a solution to automatically export objects

Abdullah Shaikh wrote:

Yes, thats good to have a separate component to handle xml over http, REST

But I am not getting how are forming the url's, because in REST, urls
represents a objects.

For example :

http://ofbiz/partymgr/party/1234 - will represent a party whose id is
1234

http://ofbiz/partymgr/party/1234/addrress/5678 - will represent the
address
whose id is 5678 of party 1234

I guess its difficult to have this sort of thing considering the number of
functionality already build in ofbiz.

or are you using REST but not following the each url represents an object.

I have seen that GenericValue can be easily converted to xml form.

The request can be in xml form or can be a normal http request, but
the
response from ofbiz should be in xml form, for example something like
this,

- all the required fields

This way we can have a flex application communicate with ofbiz using

Ofbiz services can be exported as standard web services, you can use Flex to
call the web services. We have developed some Flex components used in our
ofbiz applications run in this model, and introduced as3corelib to deal with
JSON format data.

The subject says it all...I'll submit a JIRA...if it really is missing.

FYI - this was never on the "Quick Checkout" form and only available on 
the multi-form checkout. Now that the multiple form checkout is gone

Re: Best method for work flow type problem?

2010-02-01 Thread David E Jones

You'd have to write code to automate task changes. There are actually a few 
parts of OFBiz that already do this, ie that create or update WorkEffort 
records.

As a generality the Work Effort Manager is more general, it is the generic UI 
for the WorkEffort and related entities. The Project Manager is simply a more 
specific app built on top of what is in the workeffort component.

 Most work management stuff in OFBiz is in the Work Effort and Project

 While just a guess, I think that'll be more useful than a "workflow 
 engine" type of thing. The easiest way to use it is probably to setup a 
 template project for each process you want to track, and then clone it 
 each time you actually want to track doing that thing.

Why are you using the userLoginId as a partyId?

By the way, there is no sleep function. There shouldn't be any need for

Re: need a function

2010-02-01 Thread Cimballi

The createPartyRole service doesn't require a Person, only a Party and
a RoleType.
Are you sure you understand well the error message ? Maybe you can copy it here.

need a function

In a simple-method, I create a user and give that user a "vendor" role
with the createUserLogin and createPartyRole services.

I can 1) create a user  and 2) give a user the role of "vendor".  The
problem is I can't  create a user and give THAT user a vendor role in
a single method.

When I try, createPartyRole complains that the target "Person" doesn't
exist, because it has a foreign key constraint.  So I think the
createUserLogin hasn't completed.  So I need some kind of 
until the createUserLogin is done.  What do you suggest?

Thanks for all your help so far.  Patrick

Re: Thread list - more info

2010-02-01 Thread Steve

What I am trying to debug is the fact that the thread list accumulates  
(in the service engine threads section) async services that are  
running, and, the threads never go back to status sleeping.


The thread list lists the service engine threads that are running on  
top. Those jobs are async services in this case like  
sendOrderConfirmation


If you look in the job list, you can see the service that is listed in  
the thread list, and the status is running, just like the thread list  
shows.


So, the issue is async services are never marked as SERVICE_FINISHED,  
they stay at SERVICE_RUNNING


The log below shows it completed, and I did receive the email.

The called simple method will inherit the context of the calling simple 
method. Any variables declared in the first will be available to the second.

2010-02-01 Thread Tim Ruppert

Just wanted to make sure that I clarified this particular statement so that 
there is no confusion - Contegix and HotWax would have been happy to continue 
the infrastructure support.  

The reason for the move is that the hosting of all of this infrastructure has 
long been a hot discussion topic in the community - we had discussed having 
Contegix provide an "official" server (like they do for other Apache projects), 
but it was decided that instead we would move everything over to the actual ASF 
managed hardware instead. 

I hope that clears up any confusion - and thanks for everyone who's helping to 
make this stuff happen.

Invoking a service that requires BigDecimal from GWT

2010-02-01 Thread kgambrah


Hi Everyone,
I am working on a Google Webtoolkit client that uses JSON to communicate 
with the server. However I've come to a point where I need to invoke a 
service that expects a BigDecimal as an input.


I am currently thinking of 2 approaches,
1. Create a new service to take a number and convert it to a BigDecimal
2. Create a BigDecimal on the GWT server and then invoke the ofbiz service

I was just thinking maybe someone has dealt with this issue and can 
share some insight.

Re: xml engine / handler

We are not automatically exporting objects with REST.

We are exporting some services with REST. Each one has to be manually
coded.

It would be nice to develop a solution to automatically export objects
(entities), perhaps this would be relatively trivial using the new
"entity-auto" service (i.e. CRuD service)?

Abdullah Shaikh wrote:

Yes, thats good to have a separate component to handle xml over http, REST

But I am not getting how are forming the url's, because in REST, urls

For example :

http://ofbiz/partymgr/party/1234 - will represent a party whose id is 1234

http://ofbiz/partymgr/party/1234/addrress/5678 - will represent the address
whose id is 5678 of party 1234

I guess its difficult to have this sort of thing considering the number of

The request can be in xml form or can be a normal http request, but the

this,

This way we can have a flex application communicate with ofbiz using xml

and also the benefits of xml is that with this approach ofbiz can
interact

Blog and forum response

2010-02-01 Thread Jens Oechsler

When trying to view Ecommerce blog or forums responses, I get this error:

org.ofbiz.widget.screen.ScreenRenderException: Error rendering screen
[component://ecommerce/widget/CommonScreens.xml#main-decorator]:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Could not find a
treeStringRenderer in the context (Could not find a treeStringRenderer
in the context)

Its from trunk with demo data.
Is anyone else seeing this or know the solution?

Web Tools "Thread List"

2010-02-01 Thread Steve

Recently moved an ofbiz installation from one machine to another  
faster machine. Lots of other software was updated since the new  
Centos machine was installed from scratch, so, OS, tools, etc are all  
what Centos calls current. Using openjdk Java.


When looking at the web tools screens in ofbiz, specifically, the  
thread list screen, I see 5 service engine threads. They all say  
running, and, don't ever seem to not say running. I don't see any  
logged messages, but, don't recall this happening before. Service  
running is sendGenericNotificationEmail


Email is the same as the old machine, It sends via the provider. Some  
emails send fine, like the ones for user registration. Other emails,  
like order confirmation, are never sent. I see them in the running  
threads also.


Not sure what is going on, but, I don't think this is normal behavior?  
What would cause the services to keep a running status with no  
messages logged? Any thoughts on where to look?

Re: xml engine / handler

Thanks Bilgin, I will have a look at xmlrpc.

Re: xml engine / handler

Sorry - just seen this.

The approach we currently use is having a dedicated web app in ofbiz
which is used to expose ofbiz services using REST (the organisation
favors REST) . We are using the jersey rest libraries.

I believe our flex guy is using HTTPService to communicate with rest.

Hi Abdullah,

take a look at XmlRpcEventHandler.java. We use it to call ofbiz 
services by
sending data in xml format over http (using a xmlrpc client). The 
result is

also returned in xml format.

Bilgin




  
I have no experience with flex, but xmlrpc is just a way to transport 
the data over http encoded in xml. (it is like a lightweight soap) In 
this sense, it doesn't matter what technology is using your client 
application. If it is able to encode the data in properly formatted 
xml and send it over http (and then read the result), that would be 
enough. I see that there are also flex libraries for xmlrpc

Re: xml engine / handler

Hi Chris,

I don't want to use xml-rpc but instead would like to use Flex HTTPService,
I guess xml-rpc would work with HTTPService.

Basic idea is to create a xml over http communication between ofbiz & any
other RIA, so that we can make ofbiz communicated with flex, gwt etc.

Re: How to add task time to a new invoice


Hi Hans:
Yes - this is extremely useful and got me to the point where I could ask 
the question(s) I asked last night. In fact, that document has given me 
the confidence to say (to my client) "yes, this can be done".


Now, I'm left with putting together a demonstration such that I may walk 
through and show this person exactly how this would work from a 
consultant's point of view and from the business owner's point of view. 
So, when I asked how to get my timesheets associated with a project and 
then generate an invoice, this was from trying to use the Project 
Manager as a consultant would use it. There is nothing anywhere that I 
can find that describes the steps to accomplish this task. Certainly 
there is nothing that indicates that time sheets have to be dated a 
certain way to be eligible for inclusion in an invoice. And there is no 
indication anywhere of how to change dates on a time sheet to make them 
eligible for use when generating new invoices. I even looked at the form 
widget and cannot find this.


BTW, I haven't yet tried what you suggested last night. That's a task 
for later today.


Thanks for all your help. Your document and your suggestions posted on 
this list have saved me countless hours. Hopefully, we can work through 
the rest of this together and I'll have my demo (and the Wiki) 
documentation wrapped up soon.

Hi Hans:
Thanks for the quick reply!

I thought that is how it might work. I tried this...and I get 
the following error: "No timeentry items found". This lead me to 
believe that I have to do something else besides
create project -> create phase -> create task -> create 
timesheet -> set timesheet to complete


Then when I bring up the "Billing" tab for my project I see 
"Hours not yet billed information" and my timesheets are all 
listed.


When I go to "Add all reported/approved task time to a new 
invoice" I get that response.


So, I think I'm missing something?
TIA

timesheets have tasks...if you report on a task, the tasks are

to a project.

you have to 'complete' the timesheet in order for it to appear 
in the

project billing tab.

Quick question about the Project Manager application:

How does one associate timesheets with projects?

I see where I can "Add all reported/approved task time to a 
new invoice" but how do I get a task "approved". And how do I 
associate the timesheet (which I am assuming is the "task 
time") with a project?


TIA

Re: SVN


Release 9.04 only gets updated with bug fixes.

If you are looking to learn ofbiz, stable is the way to go.  If 
something doesn't work as you expect when working on trunk, you don't 
know if the problem is your mis-understanding, or if it's the 'code' 
that's broken.

Hi,

I want to download the code by using Tortoise SVN, where must I point it
to?  What is the difference between the different versions, trunk,
release9.04 and release4.0?  I'm looking for the stable version.

How would I use the following with Tortoise?

$ svn co http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ofbiz/trunk ofbiz

Re: How to add task time to a new invoice


Hi Chris:
I was thinking that if I can get Hans to help me through this, I'd 
update the Wiki first with more detailed instructions.


FYI - this is sort of a diversion from what I'm trying to finish up now: 
some basic accounting & marketing "how to" info in the E-Commerce OOTB 
book. But someone has asked me to demonstrate to them how one might use 
OFBiz within a Consulting/Software Product company. And, ever mindful of 
possible future training/book topics, I thought I'd give it a whirl.


Thanks for the support!
