Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

[Richard James <>]

Hi,

I thought I would share an issue that we encountered today with regards to 
the reference of spring-util-2.5.xsd and spring-beans-2.5.xsd in the 
Ldappc-ldap.xml file. The file points to the spring framework website at 
http://www.springframework.org/schema/util/ for some of the xsd files. As of 
around 5pm (UK time) yesterday the URL was unavailable and therefore stopped 
the LDAP provisioner from working as it was unable to access the xsd files. 

To get around this we have amended Ldappc-ldap.xml to point to local copies 
of these files so swapping 

xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans 
http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-2.5.xsd
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/util 
http://www.springframework.org/schema/util/spring-util-2.5.xsd";

to 

xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans 
classpath:/schema/spring-beans-2.5.xsd
      http://www.springframework.org/schema/util 
classpath:/schema/spring-util-2.5.xsd"

This fixed the problem and we are able to provision successfully. We are 
running Grouper 1.6 so it might well be that the latest config files do it 
differently. 

Typically just as we put the fix in, the spring framework website has become 
available again :) We are going to leave the files to point at local copies 
of the files to prevent this from happening again. 

Thought I best share in case anyone else has or was encountering similar 
issues.

Cheers,
Richie
