Known issues
This section summarizes known issues with Tupelo 1.1.
- Tupelo 1.1 uses the UNIX command "getent" to determine users' home directories in order to locate their file staging areas. Not all UNIX variants have this command; in particular Mac OS X uses NetInfo instead. A fix for this problem has been checked in. A workaround for Tupelo 1.1 on Mac OS X is to install this getent workaround in a directory which is included in the path in the environment under which Tomcat (in the OGSI case) or your Tupelo application (in the non-OGSI case) is launched.
- Search commands in Tupelo 1.1 will match any object for which any version exists that matches the search criteria. This major bug has been fixed in 1.2. The workaround is to check each object returned against the criteria.
