OLFS Release 1.2.1 April 27, 2007

This minor release patches a concurrency problem in the OLFS.

We strongly recommend that you get and install this release.

This release can be installed into Hyrax by:

  • Getting the jar file containing the webb application.
  • Unpack the file: jar -xvf olfs-1.2.1-webapp.jar
  • In the resulting directory find the file opendap.war and copy it to the webapps directory of your Tomcat installation:
  • cp olfs-1.2.1-webapp.opendap.war $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/
  • Restart Tomcat.

Done!

Release 1.2 April 23, 2007

Major changes made to the OLFS allow:

1. Support for multiple BES's: Data providers may configure a single Hyrax installation to work with multiple BES's.

2. The OLFS dispatch code has been refactored to allow 3rd party dispatch handlers to be added simply by modifying the configuration and adding the java class files to the Tomcat library directory.

Release 1.1 March 15, 2007

First full public release!

All known bugs have been fixed. Hyrax is ready!

Here's the stuff we did for this milestone.

Release beta-1.0.2 January 02, 2007

2nd beta release. As of this release the name is changed from Server4 to Hyrax.

This release features:

  • Bug fixes for tickets 767, 784, 789, and 793.
  • Partial logging implementation (Ticket 785)
  • Improved documentation regarding shared libraries. (Ticket 780)
  • The BES and and the data handlers come with test data and will work and serve data immediately after an install using the default configuration. (Ticket 764)


Release beta-1.4 - January 02, 2007

1st beta release.

This release adds support for:

  • HTTP/1.1 persistent connections
  • Improved OPeNDAP directory response.
  • Prototype SOAP Interface.
  • Server UUID on top level directory for improved web searchability
  • Persistent content (configurations, user supplied documents/web pages, etc.)
  • Improved internal efficency via BES client connection pooling.


Release 1.3 - September 26, 2006

This was an internal release.

This release adds support for:

  • HTTP/1.1 caching - Support for conditional GET using If-Modified-Since and If-Unmodified-Since headers.
  • Persistent Configurations - Now local configurations will not be destroyed when installing new versions of the software. Configurations are stored in the $CATALINA_HOME/content/opendap directory.
  • Advanced THREDDS catalogs - These require thoughtful modification of the catalog.xml file located in the persistent content/configuration directory.


Release 1.2 - February 24, 2006

This was an internal release.

This release adds simple THREDDS catalogs to the server. No special configuration is required, simply add /catalog.xml to the end of a URL that references a "collection" of data sets and a THREDDS catalog will be returned.


Release 1.1 - February 17, 2006

This was an internal release.

Represents the first prototype release of Hyrax. It implements the feature set for releases 1.0 and 1.1, along with a smattering of features due in coming releases. In particular prototype implementations exist for F-23 and F-24 from release 1.2. At the time of this writing the intended feature set is still growing.


Release 1.0 - January 15, 2006

This was an internal release.
