7: Re: xowiki 0.50 on OpenACS 5.2.3 -- still no go (response to 5)
Posted by Naveen Agnihotri on 04/04/07 08:04 AM
The good news first: the OpenACS upgrade turned out to be quite painless. I've upgraded to OpenACS 5.2.3, and to the best of my testing, everything that worked before seems to be working. I haven't lost any data.

I am now on xotcl-core 0.48, xotcl-request-monitor 0.38, and xowiki 0.50.

Now the troublesome part: there are a couple of errors in the error.log file: 

[04/Apr/2007:01:11:17][17923.1][-main-] Error: Error sourcing /home/aolserver/packages/xowiki/tcl/xowiki-procs.tcl:

   ..."
    (file "/home/aolserver/packages/xowiki/tcl/xowiki-procs.tcl" line 9)
    invoked from within
"source $__file "

and a few lines below that, this one: 

[04/Apr/2007:01:11:17][17923.1][-main-] Error: Error sourcing /home/aolserver/packages/xowiki/tcl/xowiki-www-procs.tcl:

    (file "/home/aolserver/packages/xowiki/tcl/xowiki-www-procs.tcl" line 11)
    invoked from within
"source $__file "

It may be irrelevant, but just in case: this is a virtual domain enabled aolserver process. I am loading libthread for both the servers.

I have a feeling I haven't configured something properly. Can you please suggest what could cause these errors?

Thanks!

Posted by Stefan Sobernig on 04/04/07 09:20 AM
Hi Naveen!

This is probably due to the XOTcl version that you are using. The first error message shows that the actual error (message) from the lowest callstack level is suppressed. This is documented and patched for XOTcl 1.5.3. Patching or upgrading to a fresh install of 1.5.3 from xotcl.org should heal this problem, at least, and will show us the true source of the problem.

The second error message is a follow-up upon the first, as ::xowiki::File is declared in the same *-procs.tcl file that fails to source due to the first error.

Hi Stefan, Thanks for your response! XOTcl was already a 1.5.3, but just for good measure, I installed it again ( make distclean, ./configure..., make, make install, make install-aol), but still the same problem.

The log shows: 

[04/Apr/2007:03:34:29][1708.1][-main-] Notice: XOTcl version 1.5.3 loaded

As per my previous post, this is a virtual domain enabled server, so the XOTcl loaded line occurs multiple times, once for each server. Could that be an issue?

Thanks!

Posted by Gustaf Neumann on 04/04/07 10:53 AM
No, the reason is not the XOTcl version. Although, Stefan is right, there is a patch from January on the XOTcl mailing list, which will give in this situation a better error message, but it won't solve the problem.

I am pretty sure, you have an earlier error message in your log file. Most likely, you have oacs 5.2.3 from the released tar file. From the distance, i would think that maybe acs-bootstrap-installer/bootstrap.tcl does not have the patch in http://cvs.openacs.org/cvs/openacs-4/packages/acs-bootstrap-installer/bootstrap.tcl?r1=1.25.8.2&r2=1.25.8.3

I have included changelog of the changes in the oacs-5-2 branch after the release of OpenACS 5.2.3 below (just removed the length catalog file listings and reverted changes). These changes are as well included in OpenACS 5.3.0. I would recommend to wait until the release of OpenACS 5.3.1 and DotLRN 2.3.0, since this release contains as well updates for the application packages included in DotLRN.

There is a longer discussion about the error message you are experiencing in https://openacs.org/forums/message-view?message_id=546200

Hope this helps

Posted by Naveen Agnihotri on 04/04/07 11:13 AM
Gustaf, You were exactly right! That patch in bootstrap.tcl fixed it!

Now there are some suspicious warning messages in the log, of the kind of: 

[04/Apr/2007:05:04:30][7091.1][-main-] Warning: db_qd_get_fullname: there is no documented proc with name xo::db::has_ltree returning dbqd..NULL (declare proc xo::db::has_ltree with ad_proc to make it work with the query dispatcher
[04/Apr/2007:05:04:30][7091.1][-main-] Warning: db_qd_get_fullname: there is no documented proc with name Generic::object_type_exists returning dbqd..NULL (declare proc Generic::object_type_exists with ad_proc to make it work with the query dispatcher

Hopefully these aren't something to worry about? Thanks so much!
