I go to Tools->plugins->Downloaded and click in Add plug-ins, when I choose GridEngineAccessModule.nbm this plugin doesn't appear in downloaded list, thus I can't install neither GridEngineAccessModule SunGridJavaSupport.nbm There are no warning messages.
Paulo, you should not install it into 6.7.1. This plugin verification was requested against NetBeans 6.5. Can you please try this with 6.5 first? Thanks! Gayatri, can you please fix this problem or suggest Paulo Canedo and John Halupka how to install the plugin? Thanks!
Hi Jiri, I alreay tried both netbeans 6.7.1 and 6.5.1 in windows with jdk 1.6 If any of you two have any suggestion, I can't install the plugin GridEngineAccessModule.nbm
Gayatri, can you please help or explain Paulo's and John's installation problems somehow? Thanks! BTW, the plugin is here: http://plugins.netbeans.org/PluginPortal/faces/PluginDetailPage.jsp?pluginid=20201
I am sorry to mention that the download and installation is working up to the mark for netbeans 6.5, 6.7 on Solaris, opensolaris. Still trying to figure out what could be the problem in Windows netbeans. As this plugin is meant for SGE on Solaris , I would like to request it to be verified and approved for Solaris netbeans.
In such case it would be probably best to publish the plugin on standard NetBeans Update Center where you can even set some property that will assure the plugin will be displayed only on Solaris. Do you really want to keep it in the Plugin Portal Gayatri?
Created attachment 89907 [details] BTW, here is what I see when trying to install all 4 NBMs into 6.7.1.
Thats true, for my project I need my plugin to be in the update center. Can you please help me in setting for its availability only for solaris.
Do you still get the same error in Solaris
Gonna test it right away, please don't leave your computer... :-)
So, I was able to install the plugin on Solaris however I have three comments: 1. org-ggf-drmaa.nbm module does not contain any license (must be fixed prior publishing on Update Center) 2. After installation, I invoked "Window > Grid Engine Access" from main menu and CNF was thrown. [1] 3. "Grid Engine" menu is empty, is this as designed? [1] http://statistics.netbeans.org/analytics/exception.do?id=284109
1) I will add the license for org-ggf-drmaa.nbm 2) The Exception thrown is as expected. to run the plugin the following steps need to be followed as given in the plugin notes This module provides access to the Sun Grid Engine. For USAGE refer to Sun HPC Software, Developer Edition 1.0 for OpenSolaris For connectivity to the installed Sun Grid Engine, the user needs to set the shell as below: This should be done in the shell before starting the netbeans with the installed SGE plugin 1. Download SGE from SGE Download 2. Source the settings.sh to set SGE_ROOT in the user shell. 3. Set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH to $SGE_ROOT/lib/`$SGE_ROOT/util/arch` for libdrmaa.so Note: The Job templates in the Job tab are based on Sun HPC Software, Developer Edition 1.0 for OpenSolaris Thanks
Thanks for your immediate evaluation Gayatri! To be honest, I was a bit disappointed that exception is as designed. Can't you simply catch it on opening the new SGE window and display some human readable message suggesting what to do? And what about the empty menu? Shouldn't it be disabled if it contains no items? Finally, I would like to propose this solution: 1. Remove verification request for your SGE plugin. 2. Fix the problems above and update binaries in the Plugin Portal. 3. Ask for publishing on the standard NetBeans Update Center [1]. This will even enable to hide your plugin on non-Solaris operating systems. [1] http://www.netbeans.org/community/guidelines/au-request-form.html Would you agree with my proposal?
I do agree. Let me see if I can find solution for all the requirements. Meanwhile I will withdraw it from verification.
Glad to hear that, thanks!
Hi, I have loaded the updated plugin for review. Please have a look of the same.
