This is the second report of tmp dir problems, so we need something in the API to address it. Can you get latest on the 1.6 branch of the Grouper API, build it, and put that into your UI? Let me know if you need help with that part. https://bugs.internet2.edu/jira/browse/GRP-580 You can set this in the grouper.properties: # tmp dir to use, will set this to the env var for tmp dir during cache operations... # note, if you are using a backslash, you need to escape it with another, e.g. c:\\temp # see the temp dir in logs with this in log4j.properties # log4j.logger.edu.internet2.middleware.grouper.util.GrouperUtil = INFO grouper.tmp.dir = This will set the java env var so that things are more likely to work. Make sure the tomcat user or whatever user is running the jvm can write to that dir. Also, if you have multiple JVMs on one machine, might want to set a different one for each jvm, especially if you have problems not doing that. Also, if the dir is blank, and nothing configured in the grouper.properties, an error will be reported which means you should set that property in the grouper.properties. Regards, Chris From: Chris Hyzer [mailto:] This is the line where the error is: tempDir = new File(System.getProperty("java.io.tmpdir")); so it means your temp dir is not set. That is either because it wasn’t set, or Grouper messes with it, and maybe messed it up. What app server are you using? Tomcat? One that you downloaded and unzipped, or one built in to the OS? Which OS? Maybe they to set some start params of a dir that is writable by the tomcat user, and see if you can fix it. Im sure you will have more problems besides this if you don’t fix it. I bet it is fixed in other envs because those do have a temp dir… Thanks, Chris From: Wang, Simon [mailto:] Hi Chris, Please find attached the grouper-error.log and the screenshot. Thanks, Simon From: [mailto:] On Behalf Of Chris Hyzer Do you have more info? E.g. log entries, etc? Thanks, Chris From: [mailto:] On Behalf Of Wang, Simon Hello, We have two VM servers running Grouper grouper1/2.eadverf.ubc.ca On grouper1.eadverf.ubc.ca we use shibboleth 2.4 SP and connecting to shibboleth 1.3 IDP. We upgraded Grouper from 1.5 to 1.6. In this environment, Grouper 1.6 reported error intermittently when we tried to change the display of direct/indirect members. On grouper2.eadverf.ubc.ca, we used the same code, but shibboleth 2.4.2 SP and shibboleth 2.4.2 IDP, the issue did not occur. After we switched grouper2.eadverf.ubc.ca to using shibboleth 1.3 IDP, we could not re-produce the issue occurred on grouper1.eadverf.ubc.ca. Can anyone give some suggestions what caused the problem? Best regards, Simon |
