Metacat

Remove the inadvertant UTF-8 BOM from the beginning of the file, and initialize the contact variable properly (again).

Change the ldapweb.cgi script to use an additional property called email.contact which provides a contat email (particularly when email.sender is set to noreply@...). Update the skin configurations with this property, as well as the metacat.properties default.

If the user doesn's specify the ldap ca file path on the metacat.properties, it will use the default one.

Replace the operator "=~' by "eq" in comparing the two password fields.

dd a new routine to check if the uid has been taken already in the production space during the creation process.

For the existing uidnumber, we decrease the size of vector for sorting.

Add the code to check if the existing highest uidNumber really exists.

In the getNextUidNumber method, a mechanism to look up the highest existing udiNumber was added.

Use an array of a hash to keep the orgName/orgLabel pair.

Use the verity=>none for start_tls method on some search methods.
These methods will search the referral servers, some of which is using self-signed certificate. There is a difficuty to verify it.
The search methods don't have any critical data, so the down-grade doesn't have too much impact.

when a user reset the password, we search the user to use the base=o=org,dc=ecoinformatics,dc=org and filter is uid=username.

Add the code to check if the stored the uidnext is a number or not.

Fixed a bug that a debug message is incorrect.

Add the missed the attriubtes such as uidNumber, gidNumber and et al.

Get the some properties from the metacat.properties file.

Add a new method to get the next avaliable uid.

When start tls, the verify was changed to "require" rather than "none".

actually remove the entry if it is expired (uncomment the function call). https://projects.ecoinformatics.org/ecoinfo/issues/6099

correct the createTimestamp filter and search base -- only remove inetOrgPerson entries, not any underlying structure that was added to store these temporary accounts. https://projects.ecoinformatics.org/ecoinfo/issues/6099

correct some syntax errors, date filter formatting. https://projects.ecoinformatics.org/ecoinfo/issues/6099

clear temporary accounts that have not been activated after a configurable number of hours. https://projects.ecoinformatics.org/ecoinfo/issues/6099

Remove an extra print content type statement.

do not email a specific account reset URL so that the emails can be used in multiple UI contexts. https://projects.ecoinformatics.org/ecoinfo/issues/6066

Comment out some extral "contet type".

ensure all emailed links make sense for the UI that initiated them. also format referrals using the same options as the primary accounts (recursive call needed the html parameter). https://projects.ecoinformatics.org/ecoinfo/issues/6066

include optional email.overrideURL property for the account management page to send an email link that will result in a styled response. https://projects.ecoinformatics.org/ecoinfo/issues/6066

Remove an extra space in the email message.

Edit some of the instructions for activating an account. https://projects.ecoinformatics.org/ecoinfo/issues/6063

Add code to generate dc=tmp. Clean up some code.

Remove a reistriction that it didn't show the similar accounts of "ou=Account" in the user registration.

Use the specific template for the verification.

handle https-only server configuration -- must pull resources from https not http for the skins etc.

filter ou=Account parameters as per #5244

Update the filename reference

Include hack for UCNRS organization properties.

- build up username using base if username isn't fully qualified (e.g. cn=Manager,dc=ecoinformatics,dc=org)
- additional debugging statements for changePassword

- fix error reporting for failed password reset request
- automatically generate necessary LDAP parameters from our defaults,
included in auth.base and unaffiliated properties. This won't work for
skins such as UCNRS with a different base, which still need to be ...

- reformat header
- add debugging for getLdapEntry searches
- add 'filter' parameter for organizations

Provide improved contextUrl, provide proper URL in password reset message body

Handle all places where ldap may be null

enclose more references to ldap and mesg in the if (ldap) statement.

made mesg var global to function.

left off ;

Do not try to use non-existant ldap object if ldap server is down.

Enable debugging for LDAPweb.

Update properties usage to be correct, use proper LDAP URL, move template function higher up to prevent prototyped subroutine definition issues.

Further rework on ldapweb.cgi for 1.9 compatibility. Finished changes needed to have skinnable presentation for ldapweb.cgi, and reworked the organization logic to be compatible with our current method of storing the data (organization.* within metacat.properties).

Merge 1.9 changes into Head

Merge METACAT_1_8_1 to cvs head.

Replace die statement in the script

Change the behavior if the ldap server is down. Now main server is down, a html will be sent back. If it is referral, it will ignore it.

dded TLS support to the ldapweb.cgi script, cleaned up some TempToolkit
template processing so that the results display CSS properly, and some minor
formatting issues. The TLS support should probably be enabled only if the
server supports it, which can be queried with supported_extensions, but for...

hardcoded the organization as unaffiliated

The template for displaying the error is not executed when passwords are not same. Hence the user doesnt know what the error was. Fixed this.

Added new actions so that error message is not shown the first time resetPassword and changePasswords are called. Also fixed a bug where $cfg was not being passed to genericHeader.tmpl

Integrating ldapweb.cgi & create-ldap-account.pl into metacat CVS tree.
