General Background

This patch updates glite-security-gsoap-plugin to version 1.5.4-2 for the metapackages glite-CREAM, glite-LB, glite-UI, glite-VOBOX, glite-WMS, glite-WN and lcg-CE. Therefore, a node of each type has been installed and tested with this patch applied, to check that nothing has been broken.

• glite-CREAM vtb-generic-46.cern.ch
• glite-LB and glite-WMS vtb-generic-39.cern.ch
• glite-UI vtb-generic-86.cern.ch
• glite-WN vtb-generic-11.cern.ch
• glite-VOBOX vtb-generic-23.cern.ch
• lcg-CE vtb-generic-53.cern.ch

General Tests

glite-CREAM + glite-UI + glite-WN

I applied the patch to these three machines. Then, I forced CREAM to send jobs, through Torque, only to the patched WN. After that, from the UI I executed the tests for CREAM-cli under org.glite.testsuites.ctb, so this way the three nodes are tested.

All tested were passed.

glite-LB and glite-WMS

I installed glite-LB and glite-WMS in the same machine, applying after that the patch. After that, from the UI I executed the tests for WMS cli. Therefore, glite-WMS is tested, and also glite-UI.

glite-VOBOX

I installed glite-VOBOX and after that, I applied the patch. I executed the test for VOBOX. As the UI components are the same for glite-UI, I didn't test them again.

All the test were passed.

lcg-CE

I haven't been able to find tests for lcg-CE, so I manually sent some jobs from the UI. All of them finished successfully.

Specific Bugs

Bug #37366 Fix certified

There was no test cases specified, so the only way I could test it was provoking a failure and test if the SOAP error is properly propagated.

Before applying the patch, this was the error:

aalvarez@vtb-generic-86:/afs/cern.ch/user/a/aalvarez/Jobs/CREAM$ glite-ce-job-submit -a -r vtb-generic-85:8443/cream-pbs-dteam creamJob.jdl 
2009-11-12 17:33:34,867 WARN - No configuration file suitable for loading. Using built-in configuration
2009-11-12 17:33:37,885 FATAL - Connection to service [https://vtb-generic-85:8443/ce-cream/services/gridsite-delegation] failed: 

As it can be seen, there is no error message: bug reproduced.

After applying the patch:

aalvarez@vtb-generic-86:/afs/cern.ch/user/a/aalvarez/Jobs/CREAM$ glite-ce-job-submit -a -r vtb-generic-85:8443/cream-pbs-dteam creamJob.jdl 
2009-11-12 17:34:46,029 WARN - No configuration file suitable for loading. Using built-in configuration
2009-11-12 17:34:49,045 FATAL - Connection to service [https://vtb-generic-85:8443/ce-cream/services/gridsite-delegation] failed: FaultString=[connection error] - FaultCode=[SOAP-ENV:Client] - FaultSubCode=[SOAP-ENV:Client] - FaultDetail=[No route to host]

Now, the error is propagated and showed, so this is fixed. At least, for glite-UI.
