[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Update servlet container support strategy
Hi devs, We now have https://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/ServletContainerSupportStrate... but it’s not precise enough. I’m proposing the following: * Mention the supported version cycle and mention that we support the latest version of the cycle. * For Tomcat, I propose to say we support Tomcat 8.x (which means Tomcat 8.5.34 as of today, see “latest” tag on https://hub.docker.com/_/tomcat/) * For Jetty (standalone packaging or standard), I propose to say we support Jetty 9.x (which means Jetty 9.4.12 as of today, see “latest” tag on https://hub.docker.com/_/jetty/) WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

Actually there is another very important thing missing in that page: we should also indicate explicitly the minimum version of the Servlet API required by XWiki (currently 3.0.1). On Wed, Oct 31, 2018 at 10:30 AM Adel Atallah <[email protected]> wrote:

and ofc all the supported versions obey our requirements, ie servlet api > 3.0.1 ;) Thanks -Vincent

I prefer to have it in a single place (no dup). We could link to it though. Right now the flow is that you find the requirements first and then this is from there that you find the support pages. But I’m not against linking in the 2 directions. What’s important for me is that all requirements are listed on https://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Documentation/AdminGuide/Installation/#... since that’s the main place. Thanks -Vincent

+ 1 to have: Tomcat 8.5.x Jetty 9.x Not sure why we have 2 entries for Jetty. If we want to provide 2 Installation links, then we should have 2 links inside the "Installation Instructions" column, but not sure we need 2 rows for Jetty. It's confusing.

I've just spent 10 minutes trying to merge them and couldn’t find something better… So the reasons for the 2 lines is that we support 2 packagings of Jetty: * custom XWiki packaging of Jetty used in the XWiki Standalone distribution * official standard Jetty distribution as provided by the Jetty project Feel free to improve it if you find a better way.

So I’m proposing: * Tomcat: latest of debian oldstable/stable/unstable for tomcat 8.x, see https://packages.debian.org/search?suite=default§ion=all&arch=any&search... (in practice that’s 8.0.x and 8.5.x). @Thomas: I see that we provide a tomcat7 and tomcat8 packaging for debian. Should we drop the tomcat7 one? I don’t think we should support it. * Jetty: latest of debian oldstable/stable/unstable for jetty 9.x, see https://packages.debian.org/search?suite=default§ion=all&arch=any&search... (in practice that’s 9.2.x). NOTE: Strange that “unstable” is lagging behind so much and that Jetty 9.4.x is not being tested. Anyway it’s easier to follow the debian repos. * Jetty Standaline: latest of Jetty 9.x, (i.e. 9.4.x FROM) I’m updating https://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/ServletContainerSupportStrate... , let me know if you disagree.

Forgot to mention that similar than for DBs, I plan to only add support for Tomcat 8.5.x latest and Jetty 9.2.x latest (+ Jetty 9.4.x latest for the standalone version) in the job running all the functional tests and run the other supported versions of tomcat in the job doing smoke tests.

Actually I have the need myself (some server stuck on a old Ubuntu 14.04 that I need to migrate) so I'm not going to delete it just yet :) But +1 to officially not support it yes.

We now have https://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/ServletContainerSupportStrate... but it’s not precise enough.
I’m proposing the following:
* Mention the supported version cycle and mention that we support the latest version of the cycle. * For Tomcat, I propose to say we support Tomcat 8.x (which means Tomcat 8.5.34 as of today, see “latest” tag on https://hub.docker.com/_/tomcat/) * For Jetty (standalone packaging or standard), I propose to say we support Jetty 9.x (which means Jetty 9.4.12 as of today, see “latest” tag on https://hub.docker.com/_/jetty/)
WDYT?
Thanks -Vincent
