This is fixed in 2.0.  Shilen, do you mind looking at what I did in my commit to trunk and seeing if it is ok and if I missed anything? J  I do have a test case, though this kind of stuff is hard to unit test completely.

1. If a source is unavailable on grouper startup, I think Grouper will not start. This is because sources need to be initted, and before this fix the source will just not be there ever, which is very confusing.

 

2. If a findAll (general search) happens, and there is an exception, this will be converted to a SourceUnavailable exception instead of being swallowed

 

3. If you set the sources.xml setting of:

 

     You can flag a source as not throwing exception on a findAll (general search) i.e. if it is ok if it is down. Generally you probably won't want to do this. It defaults to true if omitted.

 

     <init-param>

       <param-name>throwErrorOnFindAllFailure</param-name>

       <param-value>false</param-value>

     </init-param>

 

Thanks,

Chris

Subject: Source Not Available, JIRA 570

 

Hi Chris,

 

On the Grouper Call today after you left, TomB inquired about the status of this issue from the 3-March call :

source not available should not throw subject not found

https://bugs.internet2.edu/jira/browse/GRP-570

 

TomB asked me to ping you to ask if you are working on this.....  he feels it really needs to be addressed.

 

Thanks,

Emily
