ok, my bad... in fact the Migration Tool Kit included with postgres does not understand "sysdate" properties so he fail to copy table, and especialy JFORUM_USERS.

[Integration Forum] Jforum 2.3.3 and Postgresql 9.1.3

nihilist — GMT

Hello everybody,

I'm stuck with an error while starting Jforum when linked with a Posgresql database.
Here is the error when accessing the URL http://localhost/jforum-2.3.3/forums/list.page (tomcat web server):

java.lang.NullPointerException

	java.lang.Class.forName0(Native Method)

	java.lang.Class.forName(Unknown Source)

	net.jforum.ConfigLoader.loadDaoImplementation(ConfigLoader.java:216)

	net.jforum.JForum.startApplication(JForum.java:329)

	net.jforum.JForum.init(JForum.java:112)

Prior to that, I migrate my database from Oracle to Postgres so I dont need to make a fresh install. I checked all my configuration files but didn't find anything.
SystemGlobals.properties:

# Database type to use

database.driver.name = postgresql

Can someone help me solve this issue?

[User Forum] Re:One account - multiple users

nihilist — GMT

Thanks for your answer !
Considering this, i have decided to programmatically insert my user in JForum each time we create a user in our main application.
1) Insert into JFORUM_USERS
2) Insert into JFORUM_USER_GROUPS

With the good access rights, that should do the trick.

[User Forum] One account - multiple users

nihilist — GMT

Hello (again),

I wanted to know if it is possible to configure an account in order to be used simultaneously by multiple users.
A standard account cannot be used like this: for exemple to log with Admin account will disconnect any users already connected with it.
On the opposite, the Anonymous (with password) account can be used by multiple users at the same time.

Is it possible to configure an account that behave like Anonymous (multiple users connected) but with access rights similar to standard account ?

thanks,

[Integration Forum] Re:SSO or something like that

nihilist — GMT

I followed the paths you mentionned, but it seems i'm stuck with compatibility problems:
- Jforum can't be installed on a Websphere 5 server (limitation due to the proprietary JVM Webpshere uses)
- I have no control on the OS account of the potential forum users, which prevent the use of getRemoteUser() SSO implementation
But in the end, the autologin option (the checkbox in the login page) may solve my issue, until we upgrade our software platform from Webpshere to Glasshfish.

Thanks again.

Edit: The 'dirty' URL, for those interested, is the following:
http://domain/jforum/jforum.page?module=user&action=validateLogin&username=name&password=password&autologin=true

Thanks for this thorough response !!
I'm going to try it right now.

[Integration Forum] SSO or something like that

nihilist — GMT

Hello,

I have an application running on Websphere and JForum installed in a Jetty HTTPD, the two applications are on separate domain name but I need to avoid users to re-enter their login and password.
I was thinking about an URL including user and password (something like "http://domain/jforum2/login.do?username=xxxxx&password=xxxxx") but i couldn't find it.

Is there a way to use the solution above and thus what is the URL I should use ?

If the aforementioned solution is not possible, is there another way to do solve my problem ?

Thanks in advance.
