BTW, we've enabled attachments in this forum for Jive Forums employees. I'm attaching a few things to this message as an example.

Reports don't work for me.  I've installed PJA and

pass the test under configure reports, but running

reports doesn't generate any files.  (It does refresh

while processing and eventually return to the "Run

Reports" page.)

Yes, reports do appear to be broken in the beta. This is a known issue that we're looking into.

Should existing license files work with the beta? My

license is working smoothly on my 2.1 production

install, but the same file was not recognized by the

beta. The included evaluation license works fine.

The 2.2.0 release is for Jive Forums Professional and Enterprise only (the next release of Basic will be during the 2.5 cycle of releases). Are you using a Basic license? If you have a Professional or Enterprise license and it isn't working, please email me the license file so that we can test it locallly and include the error message you're getting.

The generic "authorization failure" page is simply not

a suitable forward for an attachment failure,

especially considering that the message is posted

regardless.

Despite my whining, though, I think a proper round-

trip with feedback on attachment failure (BEFORE

message posting) would make this great

What is the specific error you're getting? Also, yes, the attachment process still needs improvements. Adding better error handling is one of the things we're working on.

Thanks for your feedback. Please keep it coming!

Regards,

Matt

gjz22,

Unfortunately, the version of the JiveServlet class you're looking for is not available in public CVS as it includes features that are only in Professional. However, here's a code snippet that should help show how we did thumbnails:

        PlanarImage image = JAI.create("fileload", attachmentDir +
                File.separator + attachmentID + ".bin");
        if (image == null) {
            return null;
        }

        float wScale = (float)maxSize / (float)image.getWidth();
        float hScale = (float)maxSize / (float)image.getHeight();
        // If we want to preserve the aspect ratio, pick the smaller scale.
        if (preserveRatio) {
            float scale = Math.min(wScale, hScale);
            // Don't make the image larger than it already is.
            if (scale > 1.0) scale = 1.0F;
            wScale = scale;
            hScale = scale;
        }

        ParameterBlock pb = new ParameterBlock();
        pb.addSource(image);                  // The source image
        pb.add(wScale);                       // The xScale
        pb.add(hScale);                       // The yScale
        pb.add(0.0F);                         // The x translation
        pb.add(0.0F);                         // The y translation
        pb.add(new InterpolationBilinear());  // The interpolation

        // Create the scaled image.
        PlanarImage thumb = JAI.create("scale", pb, null);
        // Write out the image as a PNG.
        JAI.create("filestore", thumb, thumbnail.toString(), "PNG", null);
