12:59 pdurbin donsizemore: morning. Do you feel like helping someone who has a question about https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse-ansible/blob/master/roles/dataverse/tasks/dataverse-install.yaml#L50 ? If so, I'd add you to a support ticket.
13:00 donsizemore @pdurbin: sure!
13:01 pdurbin awesome, please look out for an email about https://help.hmdc.harvard.edu/Ticket/Display.html?id=239833 soon
13:07 donsizemore @pdurbin I ran into some screwiness with Glassfish stops and starts when systemd was involved, it doesn't surprise me he wants to add a NOHUP
13:08 pdurbin donsizemore: sent
13:08 pdurbin she
13:14 pdurbin donsizemore: "I do not know of any other installations that have migrated and turned on Shib at the same time." That's exactly right.
13:14 donsizemore @pdurbin i was imagining that to be the case
13:14 pdurbin but you may not be the last
13:18 donsizemore @pdurbin maelstrom was replaced with an 'anna and elsa' meet and greet
13:19 pdurbin huh? :)
13:20 donsizemore @pdurbin "you are not the first to pass this way..." sorry, too many trips to EPCOT
13:20 pdurbin oh, oh. I went when it first opened
13:21 pdurbin donsizemore: I sent you a pm
13:31 pdurbin donsizemore: speaking of migration, what is your timeframe anyway?
13:37 donsizemore @pdurbin we were gunning for august 23rd (start of classes) but a) we lost three business days to VMware funsies, b) Thu-Mai and Sophia are out off and on teaching training courses, and c) we've still got to verify the list of 7 datasets and ~1,100 datafiles that aren't migrating from 3.6 to 4.4
13:38 pdurbin gotcha
13:58 donsizemore @pdurbin: we were discussing the idea of flying an expert down from IQSS for the actual migration, if anyone would like a few days in a sweltering college town overflowing with local craft beer
13:59 pdurbin heh
14:30 donsizemore joined #dataverse
14:54 pdurbin donsizemore: standup and then 4.5 meeting time then lunch but I think I've got a fix that's working.
16:21 axfelix joined #dataverse
16:22 pdurbin yeah, this fix seems to be working: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/pull/3289
17:29 donsizemore joined #dataverse
17:48 pdurbin donsizemore: so! Have you had a chance to try it? :)
18:00 garnett joined #dataverse
18:17 pdurbin I just added some more detail and screenshots as a comment in the pull request.
19:11 donsizemore joined #dataverse
19:12 donsizemore @pdurbin: i think we're good. we've tested it with jon and with me. password conversion works, as does shib conversion and data ownership retention/conversion
19:13 donsizemore @pdurbin: what we haven't tested is giving the shib conversion page a BAD sha1 password, to be sure it's rejecting properly. trying to remove all the bits of akio from the test database now
19:15 pdurbin donsizemore: I was going to ask you to test that :)
19:29 donsizemore @pdurbin i just tested it. we're good.
19:29 pdurbin donsizemore: cool. Me too: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/commit/6fe49ff :)
19:29 donsizemore @pdurbin very limited testing, to cover my derrière, but the three cases we imagined seem to work
19:31 pdurbin yep, I just saw your update in the support ticket. thanks!
19:32 pdurbin donsizemore: "converting sha1 passwords to bcrypt via shib page" ... that's not really what's happening
19:32 pdurbin the Shib page now simply tries again. tries both password styles
19:35 pdurbin because we blow away the password anyone once the user is converted to shib. we blow away the entire row for the old builtinuser
19:35 pdurbin that's sort of the point of shibboleth, that Dataverse doesn't store passwords for Shib users
19:36 pdurbin forgot your password? talk to you IdP :)
19:36 pdurbin your*
19:36 donsizemore @pdurbin noted and happy to be corrected
19:37 pdurbin :)
19:37 pdurbin seems like a good fix
19:38 donsizemore @pdurbin it'll save us a world of hurt when we go live
19:38 pdurbin yeah, no fun to tell your users they have to change their password and *then* convert to Shib
19:50 pdurbin donsizemore: so should I bug you about the *other* open ticket?
19:50 telnoratti I found a couple of small issues with the install script, is the best way to report them through github's issue tracker?
19:50 pdurbin donsizemore: #239349: error signing in to beta.dataverse.org with UNC credentials - https://help.hmdc.harvard.edu/Ticket/Display.html?id=239349
19:51 pdurbin telnoratti: yes, please! But please feel free to give us a summary. :)
19:52 telnoratti There were two places where it psql_exec and psql_admin_exec were mixed up, it only breaks if the master password is not the same as the dvnapp password
19:54 pdurbin telnoratti: huh. Yeah, please open an issue for this.
20:17 pdurbin telnoratti: thanks for creating https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/3291 ! For extra credit, would you like to make a pull request? :)
20:21 telnoratti Sure, since I gave the code changes anyways I might as well
20:22 pdurbin awesome
20:25 pdurbin telnoratti: I like the look of https://github.com/telnoratti ... Clojure, pianobar, dotfiles :)
20:28 telnoratti Heh, I forgot about pianobar honesty, that was a while ago
20:28 telnoratti I work over at Virginia Tech, with Joel Anderson
20:30 * pdurbin looks at https://www.linkedin.com/in/andersonjoel
20:30 pdurbin I don't think I know him
20:30 telnoratti He mentioned he had bumped into you at some point, I think at a dataverse conference
20:31 pdurbin huh! this year's or last year's?
20:32 telnoratti I'm not sure
20:32 garnett joined #dataverse
20:39 * pdurbin thinks
20:40 pdurbin well I hope he isn't offended :)
20:45 pdurbin bjonnh: want to try logging into https://dataverse.harvard.edu with your UIC creds? We just enabled "federated login mode" in production. :)
21:11 dataverse-user joined #dataverse
21:42 bjonnh pdurbin: yep, I'm trying right now
21:43 bjonnh blank pake
21:43 bjonnh page
21:43 bjonnh oh no
21:43 bjonnh sorry
21:43 bjonnh perfect
21:43 bjonnh it works
21:53 garnett joined #dataverse
22:35 pdurbin bjonnh: great! thanks!
22:36 pdurbin telnoratti: thanks for https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/pull/3292 !
22:53 pdurbin telnoratti: ah, it looks like Joel came to a breakout session on auth last year: https://docs.google.com/document/d/17TI2RLqdntd5vnrygDrFgYNNmqb_eoTdSFita-L1Azk/edit?usp=sharing
