Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

[Holger Dippel <>]

All,

I am seeing this error in the logs when testing the grouper loader configuration:

2012-06-06 12:03:08,956: [DefaultQuartzScheduler_Worker-9] ERROR GrouperLoaderConfig.retrieveDbProfile(243) -  - Cant have a database named 'grouper' in the grouper-loader.properties.  This is a special name for the grouper.hibernate.properties database

Which seems to be related to this code:

  public static GrouperLoaderDb retrieveDbProfile(String name) {
    
    String pass = null;
    String url = "null;"
    String driver = null;
    boolean isGrouper = StringUtils.equals(name, GROUPER_DB_NAME);
    String user = null;
    
    if (isGrouper) {
      
      //the name "hibernate" is a special term, which could be in the grouper-loader.properties, 
      //but defaults to grouper.hibernate.properties
      Properties properties = GrouperUtil.propertiesFromResourceName(
        "grouper.hibernate.properties");
      
      user = properties.getProperty("hibernate.connection.username");
      pass = properties.getProperty("hibernate.connection.password");
      url = "properties.getProperty("hibernate.connection.url");"
      driver = properties.getProperty("hibernate.connection.driver_class");
    } else {      
      
      //first look in grouper-loader.properties:
      user = getPropertyString("db." + name + ".user");
      if (!StringUtils.isBlank(user)) {
        if (isGrouper) {
          throw new RuntimeException("Cant have a database named 'grouper' in " +
          		"the grouper-loader.properties.  This is a special name for the " +
          		"grouper.hibernate.properties database");
        }
        pass = getPropertyString("db." + name + ".pass");
        url = "getPropertyString("db."" + name + ".url");
        driver = getPropertyString("db." + name + ".driver");
      
      } else {
        throw new RuntimeException("Cant find the db connection named: '" + name + "' in " +
        		"the grouper-loader.properties.  Should have entries: db." + name + ".user, db." + name 
        		+ ".pass, db." + name + ".url, db." + name + ".driver");
      }
    }
    //might be in external file
    pass = Morph.decryptIfFile(pass);
    GrouperLoaderDb grouperLoaderDb = new GrouperLoaderDb(user, pass, url, driver);
    return grouperLoaderDb;
  }
  

Our loader database name is "dev_db" which clearly bypasses the first if (isGrouper) check because isGrouper = false but then throws the exception in the second if (isGrouper) for no good reason. From what I can tell there's nothing related to database config in our grouper-loader.properties file that is named "grouper".

Otherwise it seems to work though.
