Task #48
Need a process for exposing / working with prototypes for DataONE
100%
Description
Issue came about when Giri requested a new URL for the ORNL pilot-catalog:
The current URL is http://mercury.ornl.gov/dataone/, can you please setup the domain name https://datanet.ecoinformatics.org/pilot-catalog to point http://mercury.ornl.gov/dataone/ ?
A couple of things here:
perhaps setup a DN for "prototype.dataone.org"
Have a web server running there that performs redirects to other targets based on the path.
So for Giri's example:
http://prototype.dataone.org/ornl-pilot-catalog/
might redirect to:
http://mercury.ornl.gov/dataone/
Bring this issue up at a VDC TWG discussion.
History
#1 Updated by Matthew Jones over 14 years ago
I changed the prototype config to be a proxy rather than redirect. The mercury instance now shows up for the DataONE site:
http://prototype.dataone.org/pilotcatalog/
One problem that still needs to be resolved is that it complains about the Google Maps API key being wrong -- we need a new key for the dataone url. Once a new key is installed then I think everything will be working at the new URL.
If this is an acceptable approach then I think we can close this task.
#2 Updated by Matthew Jones over 14 years ago
Initial support completed. prototype.dataone.org exists and is configured to proxy to other services. mule1 and mule2 VMs exist for other projects.
