- Issues fixed in this release
-
- The following is a list of issues fixed in this release:
-
- =
-
- <emphasis role=3D"bold">Issues fixed in the product:</emph=
asis>
-
-
-
-
-
- A problem encountered in editing Dashboard tabs in the Chrome =
web browser running in a Windows environment has been corrected. Dashboard =
tabs can be edited as expected.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- An issue with the "Remember Me" function of the login screen b=
eing overridden by the session time-out has been corrected.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- A problem with object marshalling in clustered environments wo=
uld present errors in log files. This issue has been corrected.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- An exception was encountered when adding a new remotable portl=
et to a category if JBoss Enterprise Portal Platform was the producer (eith=
er self-consuming or from another EPP instance). This has been corrected.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- The upgrade to the PicketLink IDM correct instances of NotSerializableExceptions being thrown when working in the Orga=
nization Management portlet in a clustered portal using LDAP.
-
-
-
- =
-
-
-
-
-
- The LDAP implementation has been updated to support paginated que=
ries. Queries that return entries exceeding the limitations of the LDAP ser=
ver are now separated into smaller queries that fall within the LDAP limita=
tions.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Users who attempted to use the inline composer to change a por=
tal's language locale to be country specific (Chinese, for example), would =
find that the locale reverted to English after the change was saved.
-
-
- This has been corrected. =
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- When editing a portal page layout by deleting a container that=
has PageBody content, users were able to continue deleting the container (=
by clicking the Finish button) while a warning message was displayed.
-
-
- This issue has been corrected. The Finish button no longer ope=
rates while warnings are displayed.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- A naming duplication in the pre-packaged "Simplest Hello World" a=
nd "IDM Hello World" portlet examples caused an IllegalArgumentExc=
eption when both of the portlet examples were deployed. This has =
been corrected.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- A bug was found that caused site navigation to be disordered afte=
r a non-administrator deleted a page in Navigation Management.
-
-
- This was caused by a problem with filtering and synchronization o=
f nodes in the UITree object.
-
-
- A new object (UIFilterTree) has been added to the code, which all=
ows for node navigation persistence. This resolves the issue.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- The JCR Lock Manager in previous releases of EPP was configured t=
o use the same channel name in all workspaces.
-
-
- For example:
-
-
- The 'portal-system' channel name was:
-
-
-]]>
-
- Instead of:
-
-
-]]>
-
- This naming convention could allow data changes to affect the inc=
orrect workspace.
-
-
- The repository-configuration.xml file has been=
updated to resolve this issue.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Users of previous versions of JBoss Enterprise Portal Platform=
encountered minor issues when portlet webapp sessions outlived the user se=
ssion.
-
-
- This behavior has been addressed in this release and portlet w=
ebapp sessions are now cleaned when a new user signs into the portal. =
-
-
-
- =
-
-
-
-
-
- Prior to this release, running EPP 5.0.1, configured with LDAP, i=
n a clustered configuration (using the startup parameter -Dexo.profiles=3Dc=
luster) would produce NotSerializableExceptions within the OrganizationMana=
gement portlet.
-
-
- A number of java files in the product have been patched to avoid =
this issue.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Users may have previously encountered errors when trying to add a=
remote gadget to a portal instance running on a HTTPS domain.
-
-
- The error stated that the URL was invalid even when correct. This=
was because the Application Registry was expecting a valid certificate sig=
ned by a CA to verify the URL.
-
-
- This error can be avoided by adding the certificate to the JRE CA=
with the command:
-
-keytool -import -alias toto -keystore /home/<USER>/Tools/Java/<JDK_VERSION&=
gt;/jre/lib/security/cacerts -file ~/mycertifica=
te
-
-
- (Where mycertificate is the certificate created for SSL)
-
-
- This information has also been added to the JBoss Enterprise Port=
al Platform User Guide.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- LDAP queries to retrieve stores containing entries with specia=
l characters (such as parenthesis) would fail. =
-
-
- The problematic characters are now escaped correctly, resolvin=
g the issue.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- A bug that affected the selection of users being added to a group=
has been fixed.
-
-
- Prior to this release, user selections made on the first page of =
the user list, should the list span multiple pages, were lost when navigati=
ng to subsequent pages.
-
-
- The user selections are now persistent across pages.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- A bug which resulted in users without membership in the "Web C=
ontributors" group being unable to see the Administration bar has been corr=
ected.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- In previous versions of JBoss Enterprise Portal Platform, a NullPointerException could be seen in a server log stacktrace=
after a user authenticated with the SPNEGO Single Sign-On method is automa=
tically evicted after the set time-out period has elapsed.
-
-
- This issue has been resolved.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- An issue with the registration Captcha not changing after a su=
ccessful registration has been corrected.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- A bug that caused user preferences to be lost when the ToDo gadge=
t was dragged and dropped on a Dashboard has been resolved.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Previous versions of JBoss Enterprise Portal Platform used HashMap in the ConfigurationManager class f=
or multithreaded environments. This caused the following message to appear =
in logs while using the product under heavy load:
-
-java.lang.Exception: Cannot find the configuration for the=
component org.exoplatform.portal.webui.container.UIContainerList, configId=
null
-
-
- In the latest release, HashMap has been replac=
ed with ConcurrentHashMap, which accepts default values =
for initial capacity, load factor and concurrencyLevel a=
nd resolves the exception.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- In previous releases, a NullPointerException would be encounte=
red if no navigation.xml had been created for an LDAP =
user.
-
-
- A change to code in UIUserToolBarDashboardPortlet.gt=
mpl has corrected this issue by including a clause for this circ=
umstance.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- An ambiguous error message returned when a URL referenced in a=
gadget does not exist has been revised and clarified.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- A bug was found that prevented administrators from changing th=
e permissions of a category in the Application Registry from Public to a re=
stricted group.
-
-
- The Application Registry UIPermissionForm j=
ava code has been patched to correct his behavior.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Some gadgets that do not have configurable preferences were di=
splaying an unusable edit icon.
-
-
- The gadget UI has been amended to remove the edit icon in gadg=
ets that do not have configurable preferences.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- The RSS reader gadget was displaying incorrect publication dates =
for items fetched from feed sources.
-
-
- Each item was being displayed with a publish date of 'less than a=
minute ago', regardless of when it was published by the feed.
-
-
- The RSS aggregator has been patched to fetch and display the corr=
ect publication date.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- In previous versions of JBoss Enterprise Portal Platform creating=
new portals with names that contained all or part of the word 'portal' (su=
ch as: "por", "port", "porta" and "portal") resulted in an incorrect URL wr=
iting to the Site links section of the main portal. This, in turn, produced=
'404: Page not found' HTTP response errors when using these links.
-
-
- This issue has been resolved.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- An issue was reported about JBoss Enterprise Portal Platform c=
aching recently changed passwords. =
-
-
- After a user changed their password, both the old and new pass=
word would allow them to log into the portal. This situation persisted unti=
l the portal was restarted.
-
-
- This issue has now been resolved.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- The portal window state and edit mode were going back to defau=
lt values when not specified on subsequent calls instead of keeping the pre=
vious value.
-
-
- This issue has been resolved.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Previous versions of JBoss Enterprise Portal Platform would fa=
il to start when configured to read groups from LDAP if those groups contai=
ned circular cross references. This situation would result in a St=
ackOverflowError.
-
-
- The issue has been corrected.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- In previous versions of JBoss Enterprise Portal Platform that =
were configured to use LDAP, configuring portlets in edit mode would fail w=
ith a NullPointerException because of a failing null che=
ck in the findGroups method.
-
-
- This issue has been resolved.
-
-
-
- =
-
-
-
-
- Using the OrganizationPortlet to edit ex=
isting user entries, the changes were applied to LDAP even though the attri=
bute was marked as readOnly in the picketlink configurat=
ion. This has been fixed in PicketLink and any updates to readOnly=
attributes are now silently failing. =
-
-
-
- =
-
-
-
-
-
- The gadget server includes an anonymous proxy. This release in=
cludes a filter to reject any untrusted hosts.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- If portlets from different .war files or =
different PortletInvokers had the same name, creating th=
e content for the portlet would fail because the customization process only=
used the local portlet name instead of a fully qualified version. =
-
-
- JBoss Enterprise Portal Platform 5.1.0 uses the complete portl=
et context instead of just the portlet name to avoid collisions when creati=
ng content.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Previous releases of JBoss Enterprise Portal Platform had the =
same value storage id for the Portlet container JCR value storage and JCR W=
SRP Value Storage. These have been changed to "pc-system=
" and "wsrp-system" respectively.
-
-
- In case of issues during migration, customers are asked to res=
et the value value-storage id=3D"gadgets" in the declara=
tion of the pc-system and wsrp-system workspaces.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- New Features
-
-
-
-
- A confirmation message has been added to the User Int=
erface to warn users when they are closing a page that has been edited if t=
he changes have not been saved.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Changes to javascript path handling (defined in gatein-resource.xml) in this release allow users to link to=
external Javascript sources.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Page and portlet titles were not localizable in previ=
ous releases of JBoss Enterprise Portal Platform.
-
-
- These titles can now be localized either through keys=
in pages.xml or via the administration interface.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- New text has been added to the startup log to identif=
y which version of the product is being run.
-
-
- The new output will appear similar to the example bel=
ow:

-
- Known Issues with this release
-
- The following is a list of known issues in this release: =
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- The upload service will not work with Internet Exp=
lorer 7, any application using the upload service (such as the Enterprise P=
ortal Platform Site Publisher extension) will not behave correctly with thi=
s web browser unless a name has been provided.
-
-
- A patch is available from the Red Hat Customer Support Portal.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Using the Add Node button in Nav=
igation Management (Site or Group) always creates new node at the top level=
, even when a sub-node is selected.
-
-
- A workaround is to use the right-click context menu i=
nstead of the Add Node button. =
-
-
-
- =
-
-
-
-
- If a portal is deleted from its own Site management p=
age (that is; if a user deletes the portal they are currently logged into),=
the resultant redirect returns the user to the public mode of the default =
portal (/portal/public/classic).
-
-
- The user should be redirected to the private mode of =
the default portal (/portal/private/classic).

-
- Migration from Enterprise Portal Platform 4.3
-
- JBoss Enterprise Portal Platform 5 is based upon an entirely new core a=
rchitecture and is not backwards compatible with JBoss Enterprise Portal Pl=
atform 4.3.
-
-
- As a value added part of an enterprise subscription the JBoss Portal te=
am is working to develop a set of migration utilities (which may take the f=
orm of documentation, guides and/or scripts) to assist customers in migrati=
on. We intend to release these utilities in a future revision of JBoss Ente=
rprise Portal Platform 5.
-
-
- For customers seeking to begin a migration prior to the availability of=
any Red Hat provided migration utilities, please contact Red Hat JBoss Sup=
port for migration advice. Red Hat JBoss support will be the main communica=
tion channel for migration knowledge as it is developed.

-
- Site Publisher
-
- Site Publisher provides many additional features for organizations look=
ing to enable line of business resources to directly manage sites, pages an=
d content within the context of the portal versus through integration with =
an external web content management system.
-
-
- This add-on is available for download from the Red Hat Customer Support Portal.

+ Migration

+
+ JBoss Enterprise Portal Platform 5 is based upon an entirely new core =
architecture and is not backwards compatible with JBoss Enterprise Portal P=
latform 4.3.
+
+
+ As a value added part of an enterprise subscription the JBoss Portal t=
eam is working to develop a set of migration utilities (which may take the =
form of documentation, guides and/or scripts) to assist customers in migrat=
ion. We intend to release these utilities in a future revision of JBoss Ent=
erprise Portal Platform 5.
+
+
+ For customers seeking to begin a migration prior to the availability o=
f any Red Hat provided migration utilities, please contact Red Hat JBoss Su=
pport for migration advice. Red Hat JBoss support will be the main communic=
ation channel for migration knowledge as it is developed.

+ Customers should be aware that passwords entered into the portal =
and remembered with the Remember me option are stored =
in the JCR database in plain text. This presents a possible security vulner=
ability.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+ Cause: The two JBoss Cache instances created by PicketLink were c=
alling on the same configuration file in idm-configuration.xml and, as a re=
sult, were using the same cluster names.
+
+
+ Consequence: This could lead to conflicts as the same JBoss Cache=
instance could join the same channel twice.
+
+
+ Fix: Two configuration files were created and added to the distri=
bution package and the Portal configuration was customized to call on the d=
ifferent files. =
+
+
+ Result: JBoss Cache instances can now run simultaneously without =
conflict.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+ Cause: EPP doesn't set content-type on css-files added via gatein=
-resources.xml.
+
+
+ Consequence: This means IE9 ignores these css-files due to new=
security policy. In the console it states: SEC7113: CSS was ignored due to=
mime type mismatch. =
+
+
+ Workaround: Add the following setContentType code to the CSS p=
ortion of the ResourceRequestFilter.java file:
+....
+if (uri.endsWith(".css"))
+ {
+ final OutputStream out =3D response.getOutputStream();
+ // New code start
+ httpResponse.setContentType("text/css; charset=3DUTF-8");
+ // New code end
+ final BinaryOutput output =3D new BinaryOutput()
+ {
+ public Charset getCharset()
+ {
+ return UTF_8;
+ }
+....
+
+
+
+ Result: Content-types will be set and IE9 will render the Port=
al as expected.

+
+
+ Proposed text:
+A bug in double-check locking code caused a NullPointerException to be thr=
own from the Breadcrumbs portlet when under load. A 'volatile' java specifi=
er was added to the eventMap to prevent reordering, which resolved the issu=
e. The portlet no longer throws the NPE.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+ Cause: NEEDINFO What allowed the javascript to be executed? Or wh=
at what missing that would have prevented it?
+
+
+ Consequence: This allowed javascript snippets to be executed w=
hen creating a new page through the Portal Dashboard.

+
+ Fix: Groovy encoding methods have been added to the code to p=
revent this (NEEDINFO Is this correct? What was added/removed that stops j=

+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+ Cause: NEEDINFO (Was there a definite 'cause' [eg code bug or mis=
sing code?])

+
+ Consequence: The 'Preferences' tab would only appear in some p=

ordering of the groups was only happening after logging out.
+
+
+ Fix: The UIPageNavigationForm.java has been patched...NEEDINFO=
(what does the patch do?)
+
+
+ Result: Now data updates immediately, without the user needing=
to log out. =
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+ Cause: NEEDINFO (Code bug? Caching issue? Data writing issue? Per=
mission issue?)
+
+
+ Consequence: WSRP 'Strict Mode' was not properly restored when=
EPP was started.
+
+
+ Fix: An upgrade to WSRP 2.0.1 GA corrects this issue.
+
+
+ Result: WSRP Strict Mode is now implemented at startup.
+
+

+ =
+
+
+
+
+
+ Cause: NEEDINFO Why couldn't MOPPortalStructuralAccess close POMS=
ession properly?
+
+
+ Consequence: An NPE was thrown (from GTNPORTAL-1868)?
+
+
+ Fix: A code change in MOPPortalStructureAccess.java requires E=
PP to save the session instead of closing it.
+
+
+ Result: MOPPortalStructuralAccess can now close the POMSessio=
n properly and the NPE no longer occurs.
+
+
+
+ =
+
+
+
+
+
+ Cause: In previous Portal versions, page definitions were held in=
system memory before being written when starting the Portal.
+
+
+ Consequence: This could cause an Out Of Memory error if a larg=
e number of pages were defined in the XML descriptors (NEEDINFO How many is=
'many' pages?). =
+
+
+ Fix: The transaction has now been split so that not all page d=
efinitions are held in memory prior to being written.
+
+
+ Result: The Out Of Memory error is no longer encountered (NEED=
INFO No upper limit on page numbers now?)

+ Warning messages were found in the server log when starting EPP 5=
without an active internet connection. This was because the Java EE Webser=
vices Metadata Handler 2.0 schema was requested via the network at start up=
. The schema is now bundled with the WSRP which allows EPP to start without=
producing error messages if there is no internet connection.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+ Exceptions thrown by the handleFaceletNotFound method (when a fac=
elet file was not found) were being obscured by FaceletViewHandler as the r=
esponse object was not a subtype of HttpServletResponse (it is a instance o=
f PortletResponse).
+
+
+ FaceletPortletViewHandler.java has been updated to handle inst=
ances of both HttpServletResponse and PortletResponse response objects.

+ The Single Sign On (SSO) AbstractLogoutFilter in EPP would read r=
equest parameters before setting the character encoding. When a form was su=
bmitted with non-UTF-8 characters (while SSO was enabled) the values could =
be garbled on output.
+
+
+ An upgrade of the SSO component to version 1.0.2-epp-GA (which=
includes a patch to the AbstractLogoutFilter code) resolves this issue and=
non-UTF-8 characters are now specified correctly.
