Debugging Generic Web Connector [message #33553]

Hi,

I'm trying to attach Mylyn to our internal (Sourceforge EE based, but
heavily customised) server, but have having problems. I *think* I have
everything set up, but my first attempt at a query responds "Unable to
parse resource. Check query regexp".

Now, as I have had to add a custom login to cope with our authentication
mechanism I have no idea what part of the query will have gone wrong
(Login failed? Fetching page for query failed? Query wrong?). Sniffing the
traffic is not possible as it is over HTTPS.

Is there any logging I can enable to view what part of the equation I have
wrong? Should I be trying it inside an Eclipse debugging session?

Any help gratefully received!

Jason, currently there is no logging provided by the web connector.
Though you could use some tricks as described on this wiki page:

http://wiki.eclipse.org/Mylyn_FAQ#Why_can.27t_I_connect_usin g_one_of_the_existing_templates.3F

You can certainly step trough the code in debugger. See
WebRepositoryConnector.performQuery() method.

Also see the following bug report:

195658: [web connector] query configuration 'preview' should show web page
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=195658

regards,
Eugene

PS: by the way, if you a SFEE customer you may want to check with
CollabNet if they already have Mylyn connector for SFEE.

We are working on a Mylyn connector for SFEE. It will be part of the
CollabNet Desktop - Eclipse Edition and should be available sometime in
November.

http://eclipse.open.collab.net/

It will require SFEE 4.4.

I got the generic connector working for SFEE 4.3 and 4.4. I will see
if I can find my settings and email them to you.

Mark, can you please add web connector instructions for SFEE to Mylyn
wiki at
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Mylyn_User_Guide#Generic_Web_Reposit ory_Connector

Maybe we should add SFEE configuration into the templates packaged
with the web connector.

regards,
Eugene
