Portal Toolkit Download

This is the current OGCE portal download page. See the Installation link for more information. Use the GNU sum and md5sum commands to obtain the checksum, block count, and MD5 digest. Use these to verify the integrity of your download.

We strongly encourage you to download the maven respository jars linked below. This is not required but because of the large number of third party jars, you may experience problems with the installation that result from difficulties populating your local Maven repository.

Recommended Maven Jar Downloads

The OGCE portal release uses Maven 1.0.2 to download jars from remote repositories. This can take a very long time on your first portal build and may result in time-outs, so we strongly encourage you to download the Maven repository snapshot.

Date Download Link
June 4, 2007 dot-maven-2.1.tar.gz

To install these jars, do the following:

cd $HOME
tar -zxvf dot-maven-2.0.tar.gz
ls -a $HOME|grep .maven

OGCE Web Site Download

You can download and build the OGCE web site to keep documentation at hand. Click the link to download and untar as usual.

Date Download Link
November 10, 2006 ogce2-website.tar.gz

To build the documentation, follow these steps:

tar -zxvf ogce2-website.tar.gz
cd ogce2-website
maven clean xdoc
This assumes the Maven 1.0.2 executable is in your path. Get it from here. It is also included in the portal download. This will build the web site in the ogce2-website/target/docs directory, so you can load the index.html file from your file system.

Portal Release Notes

Nov 10, 2006: OGCE 2.0.4 notes: This release includes the following updates:

  • OGCE is now configured and tested to work with TeraGrid GRAM, GridFTP, and GPIR services out of the box. You can still also use OGCE Grid portlets with your own Globus installation.
  • Condor portlets completely rewritten to work with Condor 6.8.
  • PURSe Portlets added to the main build process.
  • PBS submission bug fixed in the batch job submission portlet.
  • Gridsphere version updated to 2.1.5. This is our preferred version for stability and scalability.

May 31, 2006: OGCE 2.0.3 notes: Condor portlet revised to correctly handle requirement input fields and standard output/error redirection specified in the input fields.

May 17, 2006: OGCE 2.0.2 notes:

  • Removed an obsolete portlet.xml file under ogce-portal/src/ that caused problems with the GridSphere 2.1.2 role manager portlet.
  • Updated the main installation script to fail correctly and complain if Gridsphere installation fails because of a broken Ant on some Redhat Fedora boxes. See http://ant.apache.org/faq.html#InstantiationException

May 9, 2006: OGCE 2.0.1 includes an updated GPIR 1.2.2 service and some fixes to the installation script to provide more warnings and exit conditions to prevent incomplete installations.

May 8, 2006: OGCE2 2.0.0 release includes update of GPIR web service to version 1.2.1.

May 1, 2006: the RC 4 is the first public release candidate of the OGCE2 2.0 release.
