Hey Guys,

Congratulations on the RC1 release. Can't wait to try
it out!

Incidentally, I could not help but notice that we
think we need documentation.

I'll be glad to throw together some apt files and help
with this. Is there a prioritized list of documents
that we need and is there a "formal" process for doing
this?

Also, I tried using JNDI on the 0.9 version, to create
a subcontext at the root of the directory tree using
this provider URL:

env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL,
"ldap://localhost:389/");

When I try this I get a null pointer exception, but
if I use this PROVIDER_URL:

"ldap://localhost:389/ou=users,ou=system";

I can create subcontexts.

Do I have to use an LDIF file to create root level
contexts like "dc=apache, dc=org"?

Thanks,
- Ole

Heh yes it in high demand ... correct documentation too.

That's great ... anything anyone can do is really appreciated. How
about just making sure the existing documentation is correct and up to
date for now. That will get you familiar with what exists and you can
just go on from there adding or changing things. I value documentation
more than code these days.

Sounds like you're using the SUN JNDI LDAP provider here.

Yep you cannot create root level contexts but you can modify them after
creation. These contexts are defined in the partition definitions
within the server's configuration. However it seems to me like you're
using a very very old version of the LDAP server. Please switch to the
RC. I assure you its worth doing so. 0.9 is older than Egypt. Take a
look inside the server.xml file ... use one of the installers and just
cd into the conf directory. There you'll find it. There should be an
example.com partition.

Cheers,
Alex

OK - Cool.

I'll start kicking the tires and proof the existing
documents.

If I find any discrepancies, should I just post them
to this list or send them so someone in particular?

Yes I am using the Sun JNDI LDAP provider and thanks
for the configuration tip.

Cheers,
- Ole

Hi Ole,

Whatever you like ! But I think the best could be to add a JIRA
(improvment) to be sure that your add is not lost forever in the ML .

For instance, create un new JIRA (doco fixes), and when you find a new
error, or want to add something new, just re-open it and add a new comment.

I don't know for you guys, but it seems a good way to keep a track of
your modifications.

And thanks a lot for the proposal !

PS: If Jira is in bad shape, just post to the ML. Jira has drove a bumpy
road lately...

Nice! Thanks Ole.

We'll take anything we can get. But the best thing to do would be to
supply a patch for the fix to the documentation xdocs.
