00:17 pdurbin balo: I'm glad you liked the interview! :)
00:43 axfelix joined #dvn
08:34 bencomp joined #dvn
13:37 sbmarks joined #dvn
13:38 pdurbin bencomp: hi
13:39 bencomp hey
13:39 sbmarks pdurbin: i finally logged in!
13:40 bencomp pdurbin: did you know the read-only mode doesn't work in v3.3?
13:40 pdurbin bencomp: um... no... doesn't work?!? :(
13:40 bencomp UU tested, followed the instructions, but although psql refuses to update, DVN happily changes things
13:40 pdurbin bencomp: would you be able to report this by emailing support@thedata.org ?
13:41 bencomp I haven't tested on 3.6
13:41 pdurbin hmm, maybe a difference between 3.3 and 3.6 then
13:42 bencomp pdurbin: will have another look, pretty busy - work around is to take dataverse.nl offline during migration
13:43 pdurbin bencomp: ok, thanks for the heads up at least. I'll send this chat around internally
13:43 pdurbin sbmarks: welcome back
13:43 pdurbin bencomp: I wanted to check if you saw my two questions at [dvn-auth] Reintroducing the Dutch Dataverse Network - https://lists.iq.harvard.edu/pipermail/dvn-auth/2014-April/000007.html
13:45 bencomp yeah, it's got a flag
13:45 bencomp was in meetings last week
13:46 pdurbin bencomp: you don't mind if we build from your fork and try deploying it do you?
13:47 bencomp no, please go ahead - I was asked to email Mercè that exact message :)
13:47 bencomp (which I still will, btw)
13:48 bencomp if you notice any (potential) problems, of course we would love to hear about them
13:48 pdurbin bencomp: sure. mostly we just want to learn from your experience with Shibboleth
13:49 pdurbin bencomp: if there are any special setup instructions in the repo, please let me know
13:51 bencomp there probably are, please allow us a bit of time to fine tune and see if we can create a public version (may need translation from Dutch) or share the current version
13:51 bencomp instructions are not in the repo itself, I think
13:54 pdurbin bencomp: sure. no problem. I just figured we'd get the jenkins job set up and the server ready. I hope you're ok with http://dvn36shib.cloudapp.net as a hostname
13:57 pdurbin (I thought about putting "dans" in the hostname)
13:58 bencomp I'm fine with this hostname.
13:59 pdurbin ok, great. thanks
14:00 pdurbin sbmarks: saw you mentioned at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gJevyZPWKt5YKCXLY6asw9P6BSbVM2zaJHDmAKxj-LA/edit?usp=sharing via http://ualbertalib.github.io/dvn/documentation/meetings.html
14:01 sbmarks pdurbin: haha, yeah, we work closely with the UAlberta folks. they’re great.
14:02 pdurbin sbmarks: I only realized a little over a week ago that they forked DVN 3.x. That's when I opened this issue: help upstream craft CONTRIBUTING.md · Issue #6 · ualbertalib/dvn - https://github.com/ualbertalib/dvn/issues/6
14:02 pdurbin bencomp: looking at your fork prompted me to go look at other forks :)
14:04 bencomp :)
14:07 pdurbin sbmarks: I hope that issue looks reasonable
14:08 sbmarks pdurbin: totally
14:09 pdurbin great
14:10 pdurbin sbmarks: do you think they know about the 4.0 re-write?
14:11 sbmarks pdurbin: yeah. I talk to them a lot and they know we are waiting for it
14:12 sbmarks pdurbin: or at least I have talked about it plenty ;)
14:12 pdurbin :)
14:12 sbmarks pdurbin: I think they are forking just for local changes such as customization etc.
14:13 pdurbin at LDAP support: http://ualbertalib.github.io/dvn/overview/release-notes.html
14:13 pdurbin er
14:13 pdurbin and LDAP support
14:13 pdurbin which I think other sites might be interested in
14:14 sbmarks yeah
14:15 pdurbin anyway, I think it's awesome that they're contributing code
14:15 pdurbin I'd love for them to contribute to the new 4.0 repo too
14:16 sbmarks yeah, they are great
14:55 axfelix joined #dvn
15:10 pdurbin bencomp: still there?
15:10 bencomp yup
15:10 bencomp cursing at Microsoft
15:12 pdurbin heh
15:12 pdurbin bencomp: for the read-only thing... did you restart glassfish?
15:12 bencomp I don't think so
15:13 pdurbin bencomp: ah ha! restarting glassfish is very important because otherwise any previously open connections can still write
15:14 bencomp pdurbin: that makes sense
15:14 bencomp thanks! I'll tell UU
15:14 pdurbin sure
15:15 pdurbin hmm, we don't seem to mention the importance of restarting glassfish at http://thedata.harvard.edu/guides/dataverse-installer-main.html#read-only-mode
16:02 shauna I think I already asked this, but I don't remember
16:03 shauna If dataverse people want to help students contribute to it this weekend, they can: http://openhatch.mit.edu/
16:03 shauna (if they're in Boston)
16:03 shauna (or in Chicago, for that matter, but that's a different link)
16:10 pdurbin shauna: wow, there's a whole website for the event now
16:10 pdurbin I had it in my calendar
16:11 pdurbin but I don't know if I'll be able to attend
16:11 shauna we like websites, it makes us feel fancy
16:11 shauna do you know when you'll know?  it's pretty much okay to tell me at the last minute but it'd be nice to know sooner.
16:12 pdurbin shauna: I probably won't be able to go. I went to NELF. I owe my wife some time off from the kids :)
16:15 pdurbin shauna: I dropped a link here for ya: http://irclog.perlgeek.de/crimsonfu/2014-04-22
16:17 shauna thanks pdurbin
16:18 pdurbin least I could do
16:18 pdurbin :)
16:18 shauna Just so you know, kids are welcome at the event.  That may not work for you (and probably younger kids would be less happy at the event) but we had an 11 year old and a 12 year old at our event last weekend and it was great.
16:20 pdurbin hmm. I have a four year old. Sadly, *not* the Star Wars fan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=quIR-76ja0A
16:22 shauna In a few years, maybe
16:23 pdurbin a new hope
16:24 shauna :P
