Trac should not close tickets automatically IMO

comment:3 by kalxas, 11 years ago

This is now fixed in [10502]

TODO: run the following in the install_geonode.sh after bringing up GeoServer (the way Cartaro does)

django-admin updatelayers --settings=geonode.settings --ignore-errors

GeoServer startup during build added in [10509]

TODO:

  1. Add start/stop scripts to GeoNode and link on desktop.
  2. Create a group in XFCE menu to include GeoNode launchers.

start/stop scripts added in [10511]

comment:6 by kalxas, 11 years ago

Launchers confirmed to work in build 10513

Actually we now use curl in geonode-start.sh to detect if GeoServer is up, something that Cartaro could now use in their script too.

#!/bin/bash
STAT=\`curl -s "http://localhost:8082/geoserver/ows" | grep 8082\`
if [ "\$STAT" = "" ]; then
    $GEOSERVER_PATH/bin/startup.sh &
    (sleep 2; echo "25"; sleep 2; echo "50"; sleep 2; echo "75"; sleep 2; echo "100") | zenity --progress --auto-close --text "GeoNode is starting GeoServer"
fi
