Redmine Bug #3256 (Resolved): path problems on Mac with CommandLine demo workflowshttps://projects.ecoinformatics.org/ecoinfo/issues/32562008-04-30T17:52:49ZDan Higginshiggins@nceas.ucsb.edu
<p>On 1.0 release installer check, the CommandLine_1 and CommandLine_2 demo workflows (in demos/getting-started dir) fail with a path problem on the Mac.</p>
<p>This is apparently due to moving the demos directory.</p> Bug #3169 (Resolved): Cannot add documentation to a new actor from within Keplerhttps://projects.ecoinformatics.org/ecoinfo/issues/31692008-02-29T19:40:04ZDan Higginshiggins@nceas.ucsb.edu
<p>If one instantiates a new actor, it can be added to the library or saved as a KAR, but there is no way to add documentation from within Kepler!</p>
<p>If there is no current documentation, the Documentation/Customize menu item does nothing. So there is no way to add documentation other than adding it directly to the actor moml.</p>
<p>Dan HIggins - 29 Feb 2008</p> Bug #3167 (Resolved): Customize documentation fails when ports addedhttps://projects.ecoinformatics.org/ecoinfo/issues/31672008-02-29T18:40:03ZDan Higginshiggins@nceas.ucsb.edu
<p>New customized documentation dialog has a 'null' error when ports have been added.</p>
<p>To see the error, customize an RExpression actor by adding 2 new input ports. Then right click to Documentation/Customize and add some text describing the new ports. When the dialog is closed a null error occurs. If no new ports are added, customized documentation seems to work OK.</p>
<p>Dan Higgins - 29 Feb 2008</p> Bug #3154 (Resolved): Documentation missing for DarwinCoreDataSourcehttps://projects.ecoinformatics.org/ecoinfo/issues/31542008-02-21T19:47:38ZDan Higginshiggins@nceas.ucsb.edu
<p>When a DarwinCoreDataSource is dragged to the work area from the actor list, there is no documentation available. The same problem occurs when the actor is the result of a search.</p> Bug #3153 (Resolved): Preview problems with EML DataSource (for IPCC data)https://projects.ecoinformatics.org/ecoinfo/issues/31532008-02-19T19:44:00ZDan Higginshiggins@nceas.ucsb.edu
<p>As of RC1, there is a 'Preview' menu item on the popup menu for EML DataSource actors. If one tries to preview the data for results of an 'IPCC' search, several problem appear.</p>
<p>For small data sets (like predictions for future climate variables where data may have 96 columns and 48 rows), initial header lines are apparently truncated in the preview display. Since a primary reason for the preview is to help understand the data, the header lines should not be removed in the display</p>
<p>With larger IPCC datasets (e.g. historical data with 720 x 360 data arrays), clicking on the preview menu seems to hang Kepler (at least for several minutes) I had to kill Kepler to continue.</p>
<p>Dan Higgins - Feb 19, 2008</p> Bug #3150 (Resolved): Need to add PTII Python actors back into Keplerhttps://projects.ecoinformatics.org/ecoinfo/issues/31502008-02-14T19:39:17ZDan Higginshiggins@nceas.ucsb.edu
<p>Ptolemy has 2 different actors that allow one to use Python scripts. These were removed from Kepler when all the actors were instantiated at startup because they greatlyt slowed down startup (by scanning all the jar files).</p>
<p>Several Kepler users have asked about using Python scripts in Kepler. Now that all actors are not instantiated at startup, the Python actors can be put back into Kepler, giving an additional scripting capability.</p>
<p>Dan Higgins - Feb 2008</p> Bug #3119 (Resolved): Need Installer shortcuts for Windowshttps://projects.ecoinformatics.org/ecoinfo/issues/31192008-02-01T18:58:42ZDan Higginshiggins@nceas.ucsb.edu
<p>Shortcuts for the IzPack installer system have not yet been implemented, although it is possible to create such shortcuts for Windows (and Linux).</p>
<p>Such shortcuts need to be implemented.</p> Bug #3102 (Resolved): Inclusion of R executable for Mac and Linux ?https://projects.ecoinformatics.org/ecoinfo/issues/31022008-01-24T23:38:15ZDan Higginshiggins@nceas.ucsb.edu
<p>We included a set of R executables for Windows as of beta3 and plan on doing so also for RC1. However, we do not include R for the Mac or Linux.</p>
<p>We need to consider whether we want to include the binaries as part of the installer. Mac installer is about 58 MB so there is a size issue. (Also do we want to include even the Windows version in CVS for nightly build?)</p>
<p>Dan Higgins - Jan 2008</p> Bug #3101 (Resolved): Inclusion of R executable for Mac and Linux ?https://projects.ecoinformatics.org/ecoinfo/issues/31012008-01-24T23:34:13ZDan Higginshiggins@nceas.ucsb.edu

<p>Dan Higgins - Jan 2008</p> Bug #3053 (Resolved): Multiple Documentation windows not possiblehttps://projects.ecoinformatics.org/ecoinfo/issues/30532008-01-08T20:39:37ZDan Higginshiggins@nceas.ucsb.edu
<p>Only a single documentation window can appear at a time and it remains the first one opened.</p> Bug #3039 (Resolved): EML2 Datasource (from search) does not include Documentationhttps://projects.ecoinformatics.org/ecoinfo/issues/30392007-12-20T23:29:51ZDan Higginshiggins@nceas.ucsb.edu
<p>If you search Earthgrid (e.g. for 'Datos') and drag result to work area, the Documentation context menu will not show any information.<br />If you just drag a EML2 Datasource actor to the workarea, Documentation will show up OK!</p> Bug #2959 (Resolved): Need for Multiport input for RExpression actorhttps://projects.ecoinformatics.org/ecoinfo/issues/29592007-09-10T21:32:31ZDan Higginshiggins@nceas.ucsb.edu
<p>Kevin Drury added a multiport input to an RExpression actor and noted that only the 1st channel was input. Currently, one can add a multiport input but it is not recognized as a multiport by the actor (NOTE: The Expression actor also allows one to add a multiport but does not recognize it or do anything with the multiple channels.)</p>
<p>Ideally, a multiport should probably just concatenate data from multiple attached channels.</p> Bug #2712 (Resolved): Problem with EML2DataSource with extra cols in csv filehttps://projects.ecoinformatics.org/ecoinfo/issues/27122006-12-31T21:27:11ZDan Higginshiggins@nceas.ucsb.edu
<p>This problem can be seen by seaching for 'biomass'. First result is "1999 Sevilleta NPP Quadrat Sampling Data". Drag onto canvas and configure Data Output Format to return 'As Column Vector'. If you make a SDF workflow and try to display any of the columns to a Display actor the message</p>
<p>"Metadata sees data has 12columns but actually data has 13columns. Please make sure metadata is correct!"</p>
<p>Most of the rows in the table do have only 12 comma-separated columns. However, there are a few rows that have some additional comma-separated comments AFTER the 12th column value! This apparently causes a parsing failure.</p>
<p>I suggest that the parser should be modified to ignore any addition data beyond the last column. This would allow additional comments to the right of actual data columns. Note that R does this when it parses dataframes. Morpho also will display the data in this dataset without 'choking' on additional data off the right in some rows.

<p>Currently, individual endpoints for SRB, metacat, GEON, and Digir ecogrid implementations are stored in the KEPLER/lib/config.xml file that ships with Kepler. Unfortunately, these endpoint may change. We need to update Kepler to retreive these from the Ecogrid registry (at startup?)so that they can change and just send new values to the registry (Otherwise, distributed versions of Kepler will break when endpoints are changed!)</p> Bug #2315 (Resolved): Unable to run multiple Kepler instances simultaneouslyhttps://projects.ecoinformatics.org/ecoinfo/issues/23152005-12-09T23:14:30ZDan Higginshiggins@nceas.ucsb.edu
<p>On a Windows machine, I have been unable to launch a second instance of Kepler<br />(using a batch file which should run completely separate task) while first<br />instance is still running. Error message is:</p>
<p>Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException<br /> at org.kepler.objectmanager.cache.CacheUtil.executeSQLCommand(CacheUtil.java:78)</p>
