[Building Sakai] Building Mneme & Ambrosia under 2.6.1 error

Tue Jan 5 07:49:29 PST 2010

Hi Robert!

Sometime last month I sent this email off to Vivie at the etudes team. It
will probably help you out, as I don't know if they've implemented the
things I've mentioned yet. You need to build and include etudes-util. I have
mentioned/included patches to get these to compile with maven2 as well as
Oracle conversion scripts. We rolled out this new version of Mneme to
production this week.

Subject: Some notes about deploying/upgrading to mneme 1.2 in sakai 2.6
To: Vivie Sinou <sinou at etudes.org>

Hi Vivie,

At Michigan, we decided to upgrade the mneme test-center in Sakai 2.6+ (
http://etudes.org/mneme/index.html),
from 1.2m2 to 1.2m7 for the Winter semester. Here are some important steps
someone else you would need to take, if they also want to do this.

1) You will need to check out ambrosia and mneme, add these to your
externals. (We call it test-center at Michigan, thats what a later patch
also refers to it as)
ambrosia            -r64907
https://source.sakaiproject.org/contrib/etudes/ambrosia/tags/1.2m7/
test-center         -r64906
https://source.sakaiproject.org/contrib/etudes/mneme/tags/1.2m7/

2) etudes-util is a required dependency. I have checked out this tag to this
directory as an external.
etudes-util         -r63858
https://source.sakaiproject.org/contrib/etudes/etudes-util/tags/1.0.2/

You will also need to add add of these to the base pom.xml so it will build.
            <module>test-center</module>
            <module>ambrosia</module>
            <module>etudes-util</module>

3) etudes-util does not include maven2 pom's. The patch to generate those is
here.
https://source.sakaiproject.org/svn/msub/umich.edu/ctools/builds/trunk/patches/2.6/etudes-util-26.patch

4) The build files for ambrosia and mneme are not 2.6 compatible. The
patches for these (which also include dependencies on etudes util [added as
a property] 1.0.2) are here:
(Note the build files also include profiles for 2.5, so they are backward
comptible, it detects which version, and defaults to 2.6)
https://source.sakaiproject.org/svn/msub/umich.edu/ctools/builds/trunk/patches/2.6/ambrosia26-m7.patch
https://source.sakaiproject.org/svn/msub/umich.edu/ctools/builds/trunk/patches/2.6/test-center26-m7.patch

5) For those using oracle, there were no conversion scripts for m2->m7.
(Just TODO's) I have converted the mysql scripts to oracle. We're going to
test these, I think I got them all correct.

https://source.sakaiproject.org/svn/msub/umich.edu/ctools/builds/trunk/db-conversion/2-6-x/mneme_assessment_1.2m2-1.2m7.sql
https://source.sakaiproject.org/svn/msub/umich.edu/ctools/builds/trunk/db-conversion/2-6-x/mneme_question_1.2m2-1.2m7.sql

These would probably be merged into
https://source.sakaiproject.org/contrib/etudes/mneme/trunk/mneme-impl/impl/src/sql/oracle/

6) For those using mysql, you need to run the mysql scripts for 1_1-1_2 (not
tested by me)
https://source.sakaiproject.org/contrib/etudes/mneme/trunk/mneme-impl/impl/src/sql/mysql/

7) Lastly, there is a bug with mneme and gradebook that has no specific fix
version (http://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-16963). You will have stack
traces if you deploy to 2.6 without this fix, and it would probably be
useful to get this merged in for at *least* 2.7 (if not 2.6.2) as it is a
pretty trivial change.

-- Also, I never noticed it before, but it doesn't look the like system lets
you go over 10000 points for a question. I'm not sure if this is ever an
issue in the real world (seems easier solved by a professor scaling down the
grades), but I wonder if any professor would ever want to experiment with
serious point inflation for their class? :) I was just testing to see if the
new columns in MNEME_ASSESSMENT_PART_DETAIL were working in oracle.

Thanks!

All,

Sorry to ask such a simplistic question, since I have built both Mneme and
Ambrosia multitudes of times during previous system upgrades...

I have converted both tools poms to K1/2.6.1. I am using Maven 2.2.0 and
Java 1.5.0_19 on Mac OSX 10.6

Both Ambrosia and Mneme are version 1.2m7

When I try to build Ambrosia I get the following error:

----begin error----
/usr/local/sakai_2-6-1/ambrosia/ambrosia-impl/impl/src/java/org/etudes/ambrosia/impl/UiHtmlPropertyReference.java:[29,22]
package org.etudes.util does not exist

/usr/local/sakai_2-6-1/ambrosia/ambrosia-impl/impl/src/java/org/etudes/ambrosia/impl/UiHtmlPropertyReference.java:[130,12]

location: class org.etudes.ambrosia.impl.UiHtmlPropertyReference

[INFO]
------------------------------------------------------------------------

----end error----

And when I try to build Mneme, I get a similar error:

----begin error----
/usr/local/sakai_2-6-1/mneme/mneme-api/api/src/java/org/etudes/mneme/api/AttachmentService.java:[31,26]

location: interface org.etudes.mneme.api.AttachmentService

[INFO]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] Trace

----end error----

Can someone shove me in the right direction? What am I missing?

Thanks,
Bob
