Deploying UBC Webmail into Academus 2.0

Knowledge Base: Academus, Academus 2.0
Updated: July 18, 2007
How do I deploy the UBC webmail channel in Academus 2.0?
This procedure assumes you already have Academus 2.0 and the UBC address book deployed at {INSTALLDIR}/unicon/Academus/portal-tomcat-a/webapps/portal.

  1. Checkout the source code from Ja-sig.
    
cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@developer.ja-sig.org:2401/home/cvs/jasig co portal_channels/UBC_Webmail
  2. Set these properties (or as appropriate) in portal_channels/UBC_Webmail/properties/UBC_Webmail.properties
    
defaultAuthenticationFactory=ca.ubc.itservices.channels.webmail.CachedCredentialsAuthenticationFactory
addressBookFactory=ca.ubc.itservices.channels.addressBook.AddressBookFactory
FileUploadProperty=org.jasig.portal.RequestParamWrapper.file_upload_max_size
  3. Download uPortal-2.4.2-patched.jar and copy it to portal_channels/UBC_Webmail/lib
  4. Set these properties (or as appropriate) in portal_channels/UBC_Webmail/build.properties, replacing {INSTALLDIR} with the actual install directory.
    
server.home={INSTALLDIR}/unicon/Academus/portal-tomcat-a
uPortal.home=${server.home}/webapps/portal
deploy.home=${server.home}/webapps/portal
uPortal.jar=./lib/uPortal-2.4.2-patched.jar
xalan.jar=${server.home}/common/endorsed/xalan.jar
  5. Deploy the webmail channel
