[jira] Created: (DERBY-3322) Server guide refers to phantom property in template policy file for the Network Server

Server guide refers to phantom property in template policy file for the Network Server
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: DERBY-3322
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-3322
             Project: Derby
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Documentation
    Affects Versions: 10.3.2.1, 10.3.1.4
         Environment: N/A
            Reporter: John H. Embretsen
            Assignee: John H. Embretsen
            Priority: Trivial
             Fix For: 10.4.0.0


The Server and Administration guide contains a section about customizing the Network Server's security policy, based on the template policy:

http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/dev/adminguide/tadminnetservcustom.html

This section mentions that the variable ${derby.security.host} should be replaced with a suitable value.
 
However, the template policy, at /demo/templates/server.policy (released binaries) or java/drda/org/apache/derby/drda/template.policy (SVN codeline), does not refer to any variable or property called ${derby.security.host}. Instead, the policy file specifies the wildcard address, with appropriate comments:

<quote>
// Accept connections from any host. Derby is listening to the host
// interface specified via the -h option to "NetworkServerControl
// start" on the command line, via the address parameter to the
// org.apache.derby.drda.NetworkServerControl constructor in the API
// or via the property derby.drda.host; the default is localhost.
// You may want to restrict allowed hosts, e.g. to hosts in a specific
// subdomain, e.g. "*.acme.com".

  permission java.net.SocketPermission "*", "accept";
</quote>

------------------------------------------

Thanks for committing, Dyre!

Hmm, I don't see the committed changes in the published version of the docs at http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/dev/adminguide/tadminnetservcustom.html.
Is something wrong with syncing to the web?

I can't see the changes made by DERBY-3442 at http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/dev/ref/rrefsqlj37836.html either, committed March 03. Something happened to the copying process between ~mid-February and then?

Andrew McIntyre commented on DERBY-3322:
----------------------------------------

hi John, I'll take a look tomorrow and see if I can figure out why my automated copy is not updating the files. The copy process itself is not reporting any errors, but maybe there are permissions problems on people.apache.org that are preventing the files from being updated.

Dyre, I'm still publishing my nightly doc build out to the docs/dev area of the website. Please let me know if what's up there is stale and I'll check on the copying process.

[jira] Updated: (DERBY-3322) Server guide refers to phantom property in template policy file for the Network Server

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-3322?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

John H. Embretsen updated DERBY-3322:
-------------------------------------

    Attachment: tadminnetservcustom.html
                d3322v01.diff

Attached a patch d3322v01.diff which fixes this issue. The patch touches the following file:

M      src/adminguide/tadminnetservcustom.dita

The patch removes references to the non-existing property derby.security.host, and also fixes a couple of typos and omissions.

Also attached the resulting html output (tadminnetservcustom.html) for review purposes.

Please review/commit. This fix is suitable for both trunk and the 10.3 branch.
