glite-VOMS_mysql - Update to version 3.2.0-3.sl5

Description



glite-VOMS_mysql

First VOMS Admin release in SL5

This release provides many new features, like:

  • support for multiple certificate per user
  • support for versioned Acceptable Usage Policies management
  • membership suspension/expiration/renewal
  • support for user requests for group membership, role assignment, membership removal
  • support for one click operations (delete, suspend, restore) on multiple users

It is also the first release of VOMS Core in SL5. The main new feature is that it allows clients for it to be written without depending on the globus libraries anymore.

This release includes also a new version of the Trustmanager. Trustmanager and util-java are user for X509 authentication purposes by VOMS-Admin web application and services, therefore a new version of util-java fixing a bug related with the Trustmanager has been included also in this release.

Before running yaim, mysql should be started and configured (at least set the root password).

In order to use the voms-admin cli you may need to: source /etc/profile.d/grid-env.sh

Check the updated user guide on https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/EGEE/VomsAdminUserGuide.

To upgrade an existing gLite VOMS 3.1 installation, follow the instructions of the upgrade guide https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/EGEE/VomsUpgradeGuide.

Patch #3726: Trustmanager workaround for JDK 1.6 EC SSL handshake mess

Workaround that disables the ECDH ciphers on tomcat so that the JDK 1.6 problems don't happen. Small fix for logging in util-java.

See patch #3313 for the more important changes.

Patch #3869: Util-java update

Fix for hierarchical CA namespace handling, previously only the root CA namespace was taken into account, now CA cert's or user cert's first parent namespace definition is used.

New trustmanager factory class, which is used inside contextwrapper. It only creates one trustmanager if the trust directory (and crlrequired) configuration on consecutive calls is the same. First call creates one trustmanager and subsequent calls use the same instance. This cuts down considerably the file reads, class creation, memory footprint, delays etc.

RFC2253 DNs generated by new methods in DN* classes and new DNImpl RFC2253 class now produce proper reversed FTC2253 DNs like defined in RFC2253, meaning they start with "CN" rdn and end with "C" rdn if present. Old methods are present and work as before, but are deprecated.

Also SecurityContext.getAuthorizedAttributes method is put back for FTS test servlet.

See also patch #2624 for important configuration changes, patch #3313 for updates and patch #3726 for a small fix.

Patch #3888: BDII release 5.0.8

The version handles the IOError exception that occasionally causes the BDII update process to die.

Patch #3767: [ yaim-core ] yaim-core 4.0.12 SL5/x86_64

New release of yaim core containing a set of bug fixes and new features:

  • Can now configure the GSI callout to call the ARGUS PEP client.
  • Avoid mistakenly removing all the services from gLiteservices file.
  • Fix GLOBUS_TCP_PORT_RANGE setting on the SL5 tarball UI.
  • Correct unset for shell functions in clean-grid-env-funcs.sh
  • Make config_bdii_only return non zero in case of error
  • Fixes for installing the UI tarball on CernVM.
  • Allow general use of the 'nickname' field in the VOMSES settings.
  • Add yaim core RPM dependency on perl
  • Allow use of pool accounts with up to 4 digits
  • Fix grid-env.sh manipulation when running a single yaim function
  • Fix gridmap dir group on WMS
  • Change the CE_INBOUNDIP and CE_OUTBOUNDIP defaults in site-info.def to be valid and imply the correct (upper) case.
  • Call setup-openssl for VDT 1.10.
This update fixes various bugs. For the full list of bugs, please see list below.
