Hey, So, it took longer than I expected. Two attempts at the server release, and three attempts on the DB release... I do not yet have a way to upgrade an existing DB via XML. That will have to happen on the next DB update, sorry. I also put the DB dumps in the genex public ftp site: ftp://genex.sourceforge.net/pub/genex/ NOTICE: You must install two new pieces of software for this release * You must install one new software utility: dtd2html from perlSGML.2001Jan23.tar.gz off: ftp://genex.sourceforge.net/pub/genex/ * There are two new required CPAN modules: - Class::ObjectTemplate::DB - Term::ReadKey RELEASE NOTES: New user-defined configuration options: =========================== * CURATOR_EMAIL -- person/group to receive exp set submission notices * GENEX_SECRET -- LoginUtil.pm MD5 secret Changes to install-all ====================== - no more chown() calls (super user no longer required) - dtd2html automatically creates HTML versions of DTDs - genex UserSec account information installed - all commands run quiet unless --VERBOSE is used - RCluster installation better integrated - passwords no longer echoed to command line Changes to Genex.pm =================== - Now uses permanent namespace, Bio::Genex - Now uses Class::ObjectTemplate::DB instead of ObjectTemplate - All classes related to Canonical Sequence Feature are gone Changes to db2xml ================= - Experiment set caching now works - User/Password authentication is now optional - contact information retrieved directly through new contact methods instead of indirectly via UserSec entries Changes to WWW ============== - more pages substituted to remove hard-code URLs Bugs Fixed =========== - all NCGR hard-code emails replaced with CONTACT_EMAIL or CURATOR_EMAIL - fixed write permissions all on directories - control bundle download directory now in CGITMPDIR (no more write permission in HTMLDIR) - fixed get_objects() for linking table classes - check_password() no longer calls die() on bad password - RCluster queuemaster is now started in install-all |
