Hi Chris,
I upgraded those modules again with the full patch set and it's working now. Thanks for your help.
After upgrading to Grouper 2.4 the CAS authentication is no longer working. I can only use Basic Auth to log in to Grouper 2.4. We have been using the Yale CAS Client (yale-cas-auth) following these instructions

I double checked the updates to these files
/var/grouper/installGrouper2.3/grouper.ui-2.3.0/build.xml
/var/grouper/installGrouper2.3/grouper.ui-2.3.0/contrib/yale-cas-auth/build.properties
/var/grouper/installGrouper2.3/grouper.ui-2.3.0/webapp/WEB-INF/struts-config.xml
/var/grouper/installGrouper2.3/grouper.apiBinary-2.3.0/conf/sources.xml

Everything looks ok there, sources.xml was replaced by subject.properties. I am not sure if I need to rebuild the war file as per the instructions. When I try to rebuild I get some errors:

$ ant war

Are you sure you pointed the upgrader to the right spot?  I think the WS might live somewhere else?  look in apache config and see where it is linking to

Hi Chris,

I was able to get past that error by copying the old patches to /var/grouper/installGrouper2.3/tarballs/patches/

I have another question for you.

I used the Grouper upgrader to upgrade the api and ui modules. While upgrading the ws it reverted all patches and then it got this error:

 

> Upgrading WS jars

> Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Why does jar directory not exist?

> /var/grouper/installGrouper2.3/tarballs/grouper.ws-2.4.0/grouper-ws/build/dist/grouper-ws/WEB-INF/lib

 

I created the last two subdirectories manually (WEB-INF/lib) and then I ran the upgrader again. I got a different error this time:

I see the new version of gsh.bat in the ui directory so perhaps I don't need to update the gsh.bat in the ws directory.

Ben, I think you need to download the 2.4 ALL zip, which you did, but you also need the 2.3 ALL zip, can you download that to so the file not found goes away and see if it works?

Ugh, maybe copy the dir you are upgrading to an internet machine, upgrade, and copy back… sorry, I entered a jira…

 

Thanks

Subject: [grouper-users] upgrading to 2.4

 

(1) I am trying to upgrade from version 2.3 to version 2.4. The Grouper upgrader wants to upgrade in place (not into a new directory) so do I need to rename the directory after the upgrade is complete? The current directory name is

/var/grouper/installGrouper2.3

 

and I think the new name should be

/var/grouper/installGrouper2.4

 

 

(2) I get an error during the upgrade process. My server is on a secure network so it can't download patch files from the internet. I downloaded the tar file which contains all patches

 

I uncompressed and extracted the contents to this directory

/var/grouper/grouper.all-2.4.0

 

I created a properties file that points to the new directory

 

$ cat /var/grouper/installGrouper2.3/grouper.installer.properties 

download.server.url = "/var/grouper/grouper.all-2.4.0

 

# default version to install

grouper.version = 2.4.0

 

I ran the installer with the "upgrade" option but it gets an error when it tries to access one of the 2.3 patch files. It's looking for a 2.3 patch file in the 2.4 directory that was recently downloaded.

Enter in a Grouper temp directory to download tarballs (note: better if no spaces or special chars) [/var/grouper/installGrouper2.3/tarballs]: /tmp/grouper/patches

You need to revert all patches to upgrade
