=============

Preparing log4j releases.

=============


This is a detailed instruction to reproduce the log4j distribution
either to verify that the release is reproducable or to prepare
a hot-fix.

The log4j build is platform dependent. The best is to setup a VM using virtualbox (or similar),
install Ubuntu and follow the steps here.

History:
  * Initial: Apache log4j 1.2.16 was prepared using Ubuntu 9.10.
  * Updated in preparation for 1.2.17.


Preparation of environment:

1. Install Sun Java 6:

$> sudo sed  's/restricted/restricted universe multiverse/' -i /etc/apt/sources.list
$> sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y update
$> sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jdk

2. Install Maven 2, Subversion, mingw and xemacs21, openssh-server:

$> sudo apt-get install maven2 subversion mingw32 xemacs21 openssh-server

3. Copy Win32 version of jni_md.h for NTEventLogAppender.dll

c:\>cd "\Program Files\Java\jdk_1.6.0_16\include\win32
c:\>scp jni_md.h username@hostname:

$> export JNI_WIN32_INCLUDE_DIR=/home/username

4. Create a local ssh key with no passphrase to enable 
"deployment" of site back to the local machine using scp.

$> ssh-keygen
$> cd ~/.ssh
$> cat id_rsa.pub >> authorized_keys
$> ssh localhost
$> exit

It's important to add localhost and people.a.o to the list of permanent allowed hosts.
Besides the above, this should have been runned at least once:

$> ssh people.apache.org

From a command prompt:

$ export SVN_EDITOR=xemacs 
$ svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/logging/log4j/tags/v1_2_16
$ cd v1_2_16
$ mvn site assembly:assembly


If you intended to deploy jars to the repo or update the site,
you need to set up ssh to use private keys to access people.apache.org
and create or modify ~/.m2/settings.xml to specify user name and key location.

<settings xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/SETTINGS/1.0.0"
          xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
          xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/SETTINGS/1.0.0 
              http://maven.apache.org/xsd/settings-1.0.0.xsd">
   <servers>
    <server>
      <id>logging.repo</id>
      <username>USERNAME for people.apache.org</username>
      <privateKey>/home/username/.ssh/id_rsa</privateKey>
      <passphrase></passphrase>
    </server>
   </servers>
</settings>

You should test your ssh connection to people.apache.org 
and localhost before attempting a deployment like:

$ ssh -l USERNAME people.apache.org
$ ssh localhost

The release artifacts were originally built by:

$> svn co http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/logging/log4j/trunk log4j
$> cd log4j
$> mvn package release:prepare
$> mvn release:perform

Attention: this is an non-interactive build. In some cases it is necessary
to add: -Dusername=paouser -Dpassword=paopassword 
to the release plugin commands. This is surely not safe because your password
can be seen clearly. 


The release artifacts can be rebuilt by:

$ mvn release:perform -DconnectionUrl=scm:svn:https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/logging/log4j/tags/v1_2_16

The website content will automatically be staged to the ASF SVN repo by "mvn site-deploy".
This phase checks out https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/logging/site/trunk/docs/log4j/1.2 
into target/site-deploy, copys the generated documentation to that directory using
scp to localhost and then commits the changed content.  You will be prompted for an
SVN commit message using the configured SVN_EDITOR.  A commit message must be entered or the
site commit will be aborted.

The staged content can be tested by opening 
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/logging/site/trunk/docs/1.2/index.html, 
however some links may be broken due to the staged location.  
The staged version can be published to the main public site by executing 
"svn update" in /www/logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2 on people.apache.org.


  * CREATING ANOTHER RELEASE CANDIDATE

If a RC has not passed the vote, these steps are necessary:

Rename the tag:
$> svn mv https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/logging/log4j/tags/log4j-1.2.17 https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/logging/log4j/tags/log4j-1.2.17-rc1

Delete the RC artifacts from:
http://people.apache.org/builds/logging/repo/log4j/log4j/

Change the pom.xml version to the prior version number.
