Frank --
Sorry it has taken me so long to get back to you.  I am in progress of
updating the current cut of source code so that the functionality that was
there when I took over will be functional again with the newest version of
PHP Version 4.  After that I am planning on doing a code audit and cleanup.
Thirdly, I would like to get the current round of code into a
semi-manageable state such that it will be production ready.  However,
afterwards, myself and the rest of the development staff are planning on
performing a redesign and rewrite for PHP Version 5.  I hope to have a
working web site again and a v .9 on the web by 01/06.

   - Divide and implement website changes
   - Divide code changes

Miscellaneous notes:
   - Since Carl has been the one working on the Sourceforge setup, and
has been in
     contact with Brian Foddy (the previous project owner), he will
work as the project
     administrator.  We will all have the same input and such on the
project, but Carl
     will take care of the fun administration duties.
   - We will take notes at meetings (I have volunteered, but anyone
else can do it), to
     make sure we're all on the same page, and have some notes and document=
ation
     on everything.
   - The current mailing list is:cdo...@gm..., st...@gm...,
     cap...@gm..., flo...@gm..., sho...@gm...,
     th...@gm..., if anyone wants to use a different email
address, let everyone
     know.
   - You may want to look at OpenOffice, an open source Microsoft
Office replacement.
     You can find it at http://www.openoffice.org.
   - There is also a free Visio replacement called Dia that I am
looking at, and you can
     find it at http://freshmeat.net/projects/dia/.
   - We haven't set a formal time for our next meeting, we'll play it
by ear.  We did discuss
     the possibility of meeting over lunch this week, if everyone's availab=
le.
   - We discussed the future possibility of bringing this up to Russ
to see if we could
     get some official department support (servers, clients, O/S's,
that sort of thing).  We
     wanted to have something more concrete before we went to him, though.
   - We also discussed the possibility of getting other corporate
support from BEA, and I
     will try to contact someone at BEA to discuss this possibility.

If anyone has any questions, ask anyone who was at the meeting.

Later kids,

John

Hello Thibault,

I am the new Project Manager, Carl Collin, and have taken over recently for=

Brian. Brian was kind enough to transfer ownership of the PHP-Tuxedo projec=

to myself. I, and some developer friends of mine, are in the process of=20
rejuvenating this stale project. For now, you can go to=20
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/php-tuxedo/php-tuxedo_0_4_0.tar.gz
if you are interested in downloading a version of the software. After doing=
=20
some code cleanup and documentation, a new version of PHP-Tuxedo, using OO=
=20
methodologies and PHP v5, should be out in the spring of '06. Stay tuned.

Hello,

I am intersted by your api php-tuxedo. Actually, I tried it few months ago 
and it works very well! Now I see your website is no longer active, what 
happens?
could you give me a way to download again your sources and remember me what 
"to do" ?

Thanks a lot
Regards

Advanced PHP Programming, by George Scholssnagle, without a doubt, has a=20
load of information for what we are trying to do. Chapters 20-22 are=20
exclusively written about PHP Extensions. If there is someway we can=20
photocopy these 100 pages, everybody would benefit.=20

Carl

I didn't know this, but PHP-Tuxedo is on Freshmeat.
Take a look http://freshmeat.net/projects/php-tuxedo/

Carl

I have been trying to debate to myself... Should we support both static and=
=20
dynamic linking of PHP-Tuxedo? Static requires everybody to rebuild the=20
whole damn PHP subset, and dynamic allows you to load in your PHP file or=
=20
via PHP.INI. I like dynamic. What do you guys think?

Carl

For anyone having difficulty getting CVS to work against our archive, take =
a=20
look at these two sites...

http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=3D761&group_id=3D1
http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=3D24551

Hope this helps...

Carl

Hey,

I'm messing around with Tortoise, and I just wanted to check if CVS is
set up for the project yet.

Thanks,
Jason

I think we should all thank our new developer *shogunforge* (Chris Moy) for=
=20
having the balls to begin working on this project!!

I finally got a Tuxedo region at home to boot. I needed to install Redhat=
=20
6.2 and the Redhat 5.2 compatibility libraries, but I got it to compile and=
=20
boot.

Hey guys, anybody want to do this this Sunday?  The Mrs. is going to a
White Sox game, so we could all meet up at my place or something.=20
Just let me know.

Cool,

John

As an aside...
All of the HTML on the website was done in FrontPage from Office 2000, and=

Has everybody been able to get their CVS access and committing working?
Here is the URL for viewing the CVS repositories to know where to look for=
=20
the code.
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/php-tuxedo/

This is a test of the damn mailing list system. For some reason it seems to=
=20
be weird and I don't get emails from sourceforge. I keep checking though.

Just to make it official, I've requested that project ownership
and admin rights be transferred to Carl Collin (cdog1977).

Carl has a new group of people that wish to extend on the initial
work for PHP5 and new directions.  Since I have obviously
not continued any development for several years, it seems like
a good way for me to bow out while still seeing the continuation
of the project.

I wish them the best.  I will hang around on the dev list
for a short time while the transfer is being handled.

Thanks to everyone who participated in the original project.

Carl,
I started the PHP-Tuxedo project several years ago when my employer 
seemed like they were going to make significant investments in Tuxedo.
However, over the years they have slowly been "Sunsetting" Tuxedo and
now there are serious pushes to remove any last pockets of Tuxedo.
Since its decline at my employer, I have lost some of the incentive to
keep developing the project.  And as is evident, have made no new
contributions to it in over 3 years.

As I remember last, it certainly had the basics working pretty well in 
php4 and the Tuxedo range <= 8.  Some users found the
FML to PHP Arrays to be very powerful and easy.  There 
is a lot of potential to expand on this and add XML interfaces also.

I though at one time to move it to PHP PECL.  If I remember
the only small hangup was I would have needed to remove the 
GNU license and put a PHP specific license on it.  It didn't seem like
a huge issue, just never followed through.

So as long as it stays in the public domain; the original intent of 
providing more hooks into PHP; and I retain some credit for my contribution
to the project; I would be happy to transfer the project ownership to
your and/or your group.  You can keep the Sourceforge account and
cary on where its at or move it to a new location.

Let me know how you want to proceed and I'll do what I need to make
it happen.  I'm cc'ing the php-tuxedo development listing as well.  Its
a small group of initial supporters and contributers who were active
in the initial days.

Thanks for the interest and I hope it can be of use.
Brian

BEA Tuxedo 8.0 Document says:
(http://edocs.beasys.com/tuxedo/tux80/messages/wsnat/wsnat012.htm)

1287 WARN: Forced shutdown of client; user name 'name'; client name 'name';
     workstation address 'xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx' 

   Description

   This may result from shutting down a WSH when clients are connected, a
   client connection has timed out, the WSH was unable to send a network
   message to the client or an incorrect APP_PW (application password)
   was rejected during tpinit.

   Action

   If APP_PW is turned on (refer to your ubbconfig file and
   ubbconfig(5)), then check with your system administrator to verify  
   that you are using the correct application password for your TUXEDO
   application.

If APP_PW is not your case, try tux_tpterm() before tux_tpinit().

Could you send me your php test code? It is helpful to understand your
problem even though I have no copy of Tuxedo 8.0. I'm using 6.5.

Primarily the problem is in the base php-tuxedo code
because the API doesn't permit the end user to=20
specify any multi-thread values, so you have to
rely on our code.  However to Tuxedo, it can't
distinguish between the two.

As an even quicker fix, tho much more temporary,
just add 0x20 (hex) to the flags argument of the
tux_tpinit call.  0x20 is the value of the=20
constant TPMULTICONTEXTS that the mentioned
line of C code would define for you.  Makes no
difference how its set, but it looks like it
needs to be set for Tuxedo >=3D 7.1.
