Title: Releasing OpenJPA 1.2.x (Old SCP Steps)
These instructions guide the release manager through the steps of making an official OpenJPA release.
Work in progress. Times are just guesses and some information may be missing.
// TODO MDD Still may need some work...
The example below uses 1.2.x as the new branch and 1.2.0 as the new release.
Cleanup JIRA so the Fix Version in issues resolved since the last release includes this release version correctly.
Update the files in openjpa-project - ** Update the CHANGES.txt and RELEASE_NOTES.html based on the Text and HTML release reports from JIRA. ** Review and update BUILDING.txt if needed.
Stage any Roadmap or Release landing pages on the wiki.
Use “mvn rat:check” to verify the source has the required headers before trying to release.
Perform a full build (IANAL + tests) and TCK runs before trying to release.
set MAVEN_OPTS=-Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m (especially for Java SE 6)
Use Sun JDK (if possible) ** If using IBM JDK, then also set the system property test.jvm.arguments to -Xdump:none (Avoids OOM heap dumps on selected tests. These extra files throw off the rat:check processing.) For example, {code:none} mvn -Dtest.jvm.arguments=“-Xdump:none” ...
Do not use Eclipse to do the checkout. The extra dot (.) files created by Eclipse throws off the rat:check processing. {code:none} $ svn checkout https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openjpa/branches/1.2.x 1.2.x $ cd 1.2.x {code}||
{code:none} $ svn commit -m “updating text files for 1.2.0 release”
|| Monday, 12:11 \\ | Do a dry run of the release plugin. The dry run will
not commit any changes back to SVN and gives you the opportunity to verify that the release process will complete as expected. You will be prompted for the following information : # The new release number (default 1.2.0) # The SCM tag (default apache-openjpa-1.2.0) *this should be changed to just 1.2.0 # The new development version (default 1.2.1) # optional if you have not specified a GPG passphrase in settings.xml you will be prompted for it. {code:none}$ mvn -Prelease,docbook-profile release:prepare -DdryRun=true

The release plugin will create pom.xml.tag files which contain the changes that would have been committed to SVN. The only differences between pom.xml.tag and it‘s corresponding pom.xml file should be the version number. If other formatting changes have been made you should rollback the release and commit the changes manually. {code:none}$ mvn -Prelease,docbook-profile release:rollback # make changes $ svn commit -m “fixing formatting for 1.2.0 release” {code} || || Monday, 12:31 \ | Assuming the .tag files look OK you may proceed and do any other validation you feel necessary. The following list may be helpful * verify signatures [Verifying release signatures] * run examples. [Running OpenJPA Examples] * if you have access to the TCK, run it [Running the TCK] || || Monday, 12:52 \ | Prepare the release. You’ll be prompted for the version information and optionally your GPG passphrase again. {code:none} $ mvn -Dmaven.test.execute=false -Prelease release:prepare {code} For the 2.0.x code, different steps are required as there are problems with the maven-jar-plugin and maven-release-plugin when using the test-jar goal. See [http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MJAR-68] and [http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-285] . {code:none} $ mvn -DskipTests=true -Prelease release:prepare -DpreparationGoals=“clean install” $ mvn clean install -Dtest=false -DfailIfNoTests=false -Dmaven.test.execute=false $ mvn -DskipTests=true -Prelease release:prepare -DpreparationGoals=“clean install” {code} || || Monday, 13:12 \ | Check release.properties and make sure that the scm properties have the right version. Sometimes the scm location can be the previous version not the next version. For example if the new version is 1.2.2 you shouldn‘t see 1.2.1 in the file. \ {note}Backup (zip or tar) your local directory in case you need to rollback the release.{note} || || Monday, 13:15 \ | Perform the release. This step will create a maven repository for use in testing on people.apache.org:/home/userName/public_html/openjpa/newVersion. You will may be prompted for your people.apache.org password several times if you have not added a ssh key to .authorized_keys. [#One time setup#people.apache.org] . {code:none}$ mvn -Prelease,docbook-profile release:perform {code} For the 2.0.x code, you’ll need additional parameters, due to the test-jar issues. {code:none}$ mvn -Prelease,docbook-profile,test-derby release:perform {code} {info} If your local OS userid doesn‘t match your Apache userid, then you’ll have to set -Duser.name=<your_apache_id> on the cmdline and/or update your release profile in settings.xml {info} || || Monday, 13:40 \ | Create and upload the site. This step also uploads data to people.apache.org. For 1.x releases: {code:none} $ cd target/checkout $ mvn -Prelease,docbook-profile site site:deploy {code} {warning} For 2.x releases, this step is not needed, as the maven-release-plugin is configured with goals “deploy site site:deploy” {warning} || || Monday, 13:41 \ | Unzip the binary archive the staging site directory {code:none} # ssh to people.apache.org $ cd ~/public_html/openjpa/${pom.version}/staging-site $ unzip -qq apache-openjpa/downloads/apache-openjpa-${pom.version}-binary.zip
Verify that the HTML links in staging-site/index.html are correct (usually only the downloads and docs links need to be updated to be prefixed with apache-openjpa/)
See http://people.apache.org/~henkp/repo/faq.html and [http://www.apache.org/dev/release-signing.html#openpgp-ascii-detach-sig] {note}
{code:none} $ mvn stage:copy -Dsource=“http://people.apache.org/~mikedd/openjpa/1.2.0/staging-repo” \
-Dtarget=“scp://people.apache.org/www/people.apache.org/repo/m2-ibiblio-rsync-repository” 
-Dversion=1.2.0 
-DtargetRepositoryId=apache.releases
After the stage plugin completes it's a good idea to check the permissions
on the file system.
$ ssh people.apache.org $ cd /www/people.apache.org/repo/m2-ibiblio-rsync-repository/org/apache/openjpa/ $ ls -l openjpa-examples/1.2.0
$ for file in find /www/people.apache.org/repo/m2-ibiblio-rsync-repository/org/apache/openjpa/ -type d -iname '1.2.0'
do 
chmod -R g+w ${file} \ done
$ ls -l openjpa-examples/1.2.0
Now it should look something like this

These setup steps only need to be performed on a particular machine once. {info}Developers using Linux workstations can skip over the references to Cygwin. If using Windows, install cygwin, including Utils/gnupg and Net/openssh packages. {info}
* Program defaults should be fine. No passphrase is required for the ssh
key generation. The keys will be saved in ~/.ssh/id_dsa (private) and ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub (public). {info} See [Authenticating By Public Key (OpenSSH)|http://www.networknewz.com/networknewz-10-20030707AuthenticatingbyPublicKeyOpenSSH.html] for a good description on why and how to perform this task. {info} || || 3 | {{scp}} your SSH public key ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub created in last step to ~/id_dsa.pub on people.apache.org. {code:none} $ cd ~/.ssh $ scp id_dsa.pub @people.apache.org:id_dsa.pub $ You will be prompted for your password.
* At this point, you will still be prompted for your password. || || 5 | Create a ~/.ssh folder in your home directory on people.apache.org
and change its file mode to 700. {code:none} $ mkdir ~/.ssh $ chmod 700 ~/.ssh
{info}
* Each public key in the {{authorized_keys}} spans only one line.
** For example: "{{ssh-dss AAAAB3NzaC1kc3MAAA ..... agBmmfZ9uAbSqA==
dsa-key-20071107}}" * ‘#’ in the first column is a comment line. {info} || || 7 | Exit out of this ssh session. || || 8 | Start a new ssh session. No login should be required this time due to the private ssh key on your local box matching up with the public ssh key in your home directory (~/.ssh). {code:none} $ ssh @people.apache.org
{info} If you are still prompted for a password, then you have not set up the ssh keys properly. Review the steps above and ensure that all of the steps were followed properly. Or, maybe the instructions are still not quite right and they still need some adjusting. In that case, please update the instructions accordingly. :-) {info}
* The program's default values should be fine. For the "Real Name" enter
your full name (ie. Stan Programmer). For the “e-mail address” enter your apache address (ie. sprogrammer@apache.org). You will also be required to enter a “passphrase” for the GPG key generation. Keep track of this as you will need this for the Release processing. {info} * The generated keys are stored in $HOME/.gnupg or %HOME%\Application Data\gnupg subdirectory. * Save the content in this subdirectory to a safe media. This contains your private key used to sign all the OpenJPA release materials. {info} || || 3 | Backup your cygwin home directory to another media || || 4 | Add your public key to {{[https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openjpa/site/docs/KEYS] }} and {{http://www.apache.org/dist/openjpa/KEYS}}. See the commands describe at the beginning of this KEYS file to perform this task. The gpg key-pair is used to sign the published artifacts for the OpenJPA releases. {code:none} $ gpg --list-sigs && gpg --armor -- export
{info}The {{https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openjpa/site/docs/KEYS }} file is updated via normal svn commit procedures. How the http://www.apache.org/dist/openjpa/KEYS file gets updated is still a mystery to me... {info} ||
{info}
* {{$USERNAME}} is the remote username on people.apache.org, not your local
userid. * {{$PATH_TO_PRIVATE_KEY}} is the path to the private key generated for ssh. E.g. /home/yourLocalUserId/.ssh/id_dsa. For Windows' cygwin users, you will need to enter the full cygwin path: /cygdrive/c/cygwin/home/yourLocalUserId/.ssh/id_dsa. * You can also enter a PGP passphrase stanza: ... If you don't use this in your settings.xml file, then you will be prompted for it during the Release processing. {info} |
h3. Expose a copy of known hosts to Maven
{info}
Is this step even necessary?  Due to the question mark below without an
explanation of the new location for this alternate .ssh folder, I never performed these steps. And, the release process still seemed to work okay for me... The next person to use these instructions can verify whether any tricks had to be played with the .ssh folders... {info}
|| 1 | From cygwin, ssh to people.apache.org, save the public key if
prompted, and exit || | | cygwin will save the known hosts to your {{~/.ssh}} folder, but the script cannot access it there (from Windows) | || 2 | From cygwin (not Windows) create another {{.ssh}} folder at (?) || || 3 | Copy the {{known_hosts}} file to the new {{.ssh}} folder ||
h2. Troubleshooting h3. Space Character in Build Root Path || Description | If there are spaces in the path to the build root
subdirectory, the maven task uses to generate the revision number for the org.apache.openjpa.revision.properties yields incorrect data. For example: {code:title=org.apache.openjpa.revision.properties|borderStyle=solid} revision.number=Type ‘svnversion --help’ for usage. openjpa.version=1.0.1
