Hey,

 

Grouper 2.4.0 how has a few new patches (listed below) which add some important capabilities.  These are in ITAP container tier/grouper:2.4.0-a77-u49-w10-p11-20191024-rc1.  Thanks to all the developers who have been working very hard and productively.

 

 

 

1. Configuration files now in the UI and database.  This will cause fewer errors and support requests since now config files need to be copied and kept in sync per jvm.  Also helps in containerized envs.  You can use the UI to view your configuration (in database or not), import config files, add config items, edit item, remove items from the DB

   The sub pages of that page show screenshot and show how to use switch to this feature.  Also there is a step-by-step wiki of doing this on the demo server.  Backup config files, consolidate config file if different per jvm, import them, blank them out, bounce.

2. View of attribute assignments from the attribute def or attribute name (we had this in the lite UI).  See where attributes are assigned
   
   
   
   
3. Various jiras
   
   GRP-2361: ui for import/edit/delete database config
   GRP-2303: create screen to show attribute assignments from an attribute def name

       - this is important, you can pull your morphString encryption key from an env var or scriptlet e.g. in container
   GRP-2337: daemon page should show a more accurate status
       - this has important enhancements
   GRP-2310: Bulk Subject Lookup: Use grouper_members data first
       - this improves loader performance
   GRP-2362: GrouperSystem cant be found
   GRP-2363: v2.4 unit test fixes (round 1)
   GRP-2358: deprovisioning email service looking for attributes and not going to root folder
   GRP-2188: add cc etc to grouperEmail
   GRP-2366: GrouperUtil.stripEnd should be GrouperUtil.stripSuffix
   GRP-2370: Attribute queries with order by failing in hsql
   GRP-2364: morphString should support EL scriptlets
   GRP-2370: hsql attribute queries with order by
