Re: [Coursework-help] Lets-Talk integrated in Coursework?

[Ian B. <ie...@tf...>]

The Lets Talk software is a Cocoon application that is mounted under the 
discuss directory. You must have a Cocoon servlet mapped in web.xml and 
the sitemap.xmap configured correctly. From memory the 2.1 release and 
2.5 RC1 releases both have discussion built in, just activate the tool 
when using a course. If you want to use a 3rd party discussion server 
like panfora, you will need to change the Discussion tool class to use 
that instead.

It might be worth a check in 2.5 to make certain that the integration 
was done and that we didnt just leave it out (by mistake). Remember that 
the 2.5 port was a port from the Oracle version and not an upgrade from 
the 2.1 on postgres release.

Sam,
Thanks for the patch,
yes we will commit to CVS and check 2.5 to see if the bug exists there as well.

[Coursework-help] AnnouncementController.java

[Sam O. <sa...@lo...>]

I was receiving this error in my logs when trying to view announcments 
for a class:

AnnouncementController.java: SQL Exception: Parameter index out of range.

Looks like the prepared statements setInts were off.  Here is my diff to 
fix:

105,106c105,106
<           stmt.setInt(3, nexusID);
<           stmt.setInt(4, personID);
---
 >           // stmt.setInt(3, nexusID);
 >           stmt.setInt(3, personID);

I will also post in sourceforge bug tracker.  Does someone with 
developer access commit the bug fixes in the bug tracking system to CVS?

[Coursework-help] Lets-Talk integrated in Coursework?

[Sam O. <sa...@lo...>]

Hi all,

Quick question about discussion software integrated into Coursework....

I can't find any reference to Lets-Talk in the Coursework CVS or in the 
RC1 tarball.  Am I missing something?  Do I need to integrate the 
lets-talk source into the Coursework source and adjust the builds 
accordingly?  The only references to discussion board software I see in 
2.5 are to linking to third-party discussion boards.

Thanks,
Sam

[Coursework-help] Postgres 7.3 problems

[Sam O. <sa...@lo...>]

I just joined the list, but I haven't seen a response to the question 
about problems importing the tables on a recent (7.3) version of Postgres.

Recent versions of Postgres have deprecated the column type 'datetime' 
in favor of the more standard 'timestamp'.

---------Quote from 
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/6.3/interactive/c0804.htm----
In future releases, the number of date/time types will decrease, with 
the current implementation of datetime becoming timestamp, timespan 
becoming interval, and (possibly) abstime and reltime being deprecated 
in favor of timestamp and interval. The more arcane features of the 
date/time definitions from the SQL92 standard are not likely to be pursued.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you are on a *nix system, here is an easy command to change all 
references of 'datetime' to 'timestamp':

find ./ -name \*sql |xargs perl -pi -e 's/datetime/timestamp/g'

Do older version of Postgres also support the timestamp column type?  
Would there be any harm in changing the SQL files in CVS to comply with 
new versions of Postgres?  Would we be losing backward-compatability?
