    Failed to create configuration directory for workspace defau

      Hi,

      What's that? It happens with the latest JBoss Portal 2.2.0-ALPHA build from the sources and deployed onto JBoss AS 4.0.3RC2.

          Hi Jacek,

          Strange. I have not tested on 4.0.3RC2, but will soon. Odd that it creates

          ${rep.home}/repository
          ${rep.home}

          but dies on

          ${rep.home}/workspaces

          Can you verify that the /workspaces does not exist alongside the other directories?

            Hi Roy,

            It does exist. Take a look at the directory listing. I believe that rep.home equals to /cygdrive/c/apps/jboss/server/portal/data/portal/jcr in my case.

            $ pwd
            /cygdrive/c/apps/jboss/server/portal/data/portal/jcr

            $ ls -R
            .:
            repository/ versions/ workspaces/

            ./repository:

            ./versions:

            ./workspaces:
            default/

            ./workspaces/default:

                ok. I will look at it. I had to modify some of the deployment code for those deploying exploded, and it may have broken the packed deployment.

                I will get back to the CMS service this weekend/week. I wanted to finish and check in the new theme, get it out of the way, so I can move on to this and the dynamicity ui.

                I will get back to you on what I find, and thanks for checking this out and being an early-adopter. ;-)

                • 5. Re: Failed to create configuration directory for workspace d

                  I narrowed it down to a change in the xml-api.jar from JBoss AS 4.0.2 to 4.0.3RC2. It resides under /server/lib/endorsed. If you swap that out with the one from 4.0.2 it creates the directory, but that is not a valid option. It is a cange from

                  I debugged the jackrabbit code and it fails here:

                  transformer.transform(new DOMSource(template), new StreamResult(xml));
                  


                  The passing in of a file object (xml) here seems to be the incompatibility. Also, I found a forum post that may apply, so we're not the only ones with this problem it seems:

                  http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?forumID=34&threadID=563077

                  The suggested fix for jackrabbit would have to be not passing in the file object to the StreamResult constructor, but creating it with the directory names. I will try this in their code and see if it works with the test classes first.

                  Also, I found a similar bug, that applies:

                  • 6. Re: Failed to create configuration directory for workspace d

                    I have updated the jackrabbit-core jar in thirdparty and the repository config. I also logged it in the jackrabbit jira: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-222 (The repo config change is not related)

                    You will have to delete the /data/portal directory and do a clean build/deploy for the cms to deploy fully and create all necessary files.

                    Keep in mind, the ui is currently being worked on, so you will most likely get a stack trace until i complete it. ;-)

                      Hi Roy,

                      It works now fine. Althoght at some time when I close JBoss using Ctrl-C, the .lock is left and the MBean complains the directory is locked. I'd say it happens every time at Ctrl-C, but am not so sure.

                        Yes. This is a known issue. I have not yet gotten to stopping the service elegantly, so if there is a session uncommitted for whatever reason, the lock stays there.

                        I will look in to it soon, once I am farther along with the UI piece.
