Is there an upgrade path from 1.3.1 to 1.4.0 beta that makes it possible to bring workspaces and users from 1.3.1 into 1.4.0 beta? I tried a simple backup of the 131 database schema and restore into the 140b database schema to bring everything over and that failed.

General Discussion / Oracle buys Sun

If you believe what some analysts are saying, the move may signal the eventual death of MySQL or at least a change to MySQL and it's role in IT.

Should the Sun acquisition by Oracle make projects like OpenGoo at least consider a move from MySQL to something like PostgreSQL? Will the LAMP/WAMP stack become the LAPP/WAPP stack?

How To's / Re: Task edit permission for user?

« on: March 31, 2009, 04:34:18 pm »

You say you are setting read only permissions to the task section. Do you mean to say you are setting read only permissions to the workspace and subworkspaces?

The key here is that you assigned the task to the user, once you do that you have given the user write access to the task even if you have them assigned with read only access to the workspace and subworkspace. This makes sense, why would you assign a task to a user unless they have write access to a task so they can edit task attributes.

I have tested situations in which the user is given read only access to a workspace and it works, they cannot do write activities in the workspace. Once I assign the user a task they are given full access to that task but still have only read access to the rest of the workspace.

A question, do you want the user to have read only access to the task? If so,
set the Assigned to to don't assign. Now the user will only have read access to the task. BUt once you re-assign the task to a user, that user will have write access to the task, which like I said earlier makes sense.

General Discussion / Re: OpenGoo vs. ProjectPier / activeCollab

« on: March 31, 2009, 11:35:13 am »

I've been using ActiveCollab/ProjectPier for over two years. Since the status of ProjectPier is in doubt I looked elsewhere, found OpenGoo and haven't turned back.

For me, the only feature in ProjectPier I would like to see in OpenGoo is the ability to reorder tasks.

I do PHP programming (not an expert by any means) and am trying to understand the OpenGoo code so that time allowing I can contribute. I have three hours per week to kill while my kids study Taekwondo (the instructor allows parents to sit in class and watch) so that's three hours per week I can contribute to OpenGoo.

How To's / Allows users to create workspaces in personal workspace

« on: March 31, 2009, 11:26:09 am »

Is it possible to allow users to manage workspaces under their personal workspace while not allowing users to manage workspaces under other workspaces?

I have created users called workspace managers  for client companies. These workspace managers can manage workspaces within the client company and are not given any other rights to manage workspaces, so they cannot manage workspaces for other clients. I also have client users that are allowed various rights within workspaces depending on need. What I would like is for users to have the ability to add and delete workspaces within their own personal workspace while denying them the right to manage workspaces everywhere else they have rights. For now it appears that workspace management is all or nothing. if the user is given workspace management rights they can manage workspaces under other workspaces in which they are granted other rights.

I've started to look at the code to see where this is controlled in order to see if I can grant user the right to manage workspaces under their personal workspace. Any suggestions as to what controller classes I should look at?

How To's / Re: Multiple users can edit the same document at the same time?

« on: March 31, 2009, 10:57:34 am »

I'm running OpenGoo 1.3.1.

File checkout has worked for me for both html and slim files, that is, when one user checks out a document the other users are blocked from checking out the document. The user trying to access a checked out document will see "checked out by user..." under the status column. File checkout also works for me with uploaded files.

OpenGoo is excellent. Keep up the good work.
