And reverted CachedUserInfo back to revision 5262.
I don't think most of the inventory problems that people are reporting are due to these, but its easier to deal with one set of potential problems at a time, and I'm not going to get any time in the week to work on this anyway.
The Login service should now read/create new inventory on the inventory server that is set in a users profile.
Also added "Add-InventoryHost" console command to add a support for a new server to a region.
So it would be good if someone could test this. Set up the grid as normal, but then also run extra inventory server on a different computer (well actually it just has to be on a different network hostname, so one using "http://localhost:8004" and one using "http://127.0.0.1:8005" should work) then you need to manually edit the user profile database to set the new servers url in a user's "userInventoryURI" field.
Then on a region server, use the Add-InventoryHost to add the new server url (always include the full url, including http, but don't add a final /)
Login with that account and see if the inventory works.
Of course these needs to be made more user friendly.
Currently module loading is done ad-hoc. I propose creating a simple
loader class that leverages Mono.Addins (and perhaps the new .NET
addins when they become available in mono). Attached is a basic
patch for review that compiles into HEAD, but doesn't yet replace
any existing ad-hoc loaders.
* You'll need to start-up the MessageingServer and set it up. It sets up like any of the other grid servers.
* All user presence data is kept in memory for speed, while the agent is online. That means if you shutdown the messaging server or the messaging server crashes, it forgets who's online/offline.
* Occasionally the region-cache will get stale if regions move around a lot. if it gets stale, run clear-cache on the messaging server console to clear the region cache.
* Friend status updates are still only local, so you still won't know before instant messaging someone if they're online.
* The server each user is on and the user server must be updated or the instant message won't get to the destination.
* User tries to log-in but is already logged in. Userserver will send message to simulator user was in to log the user out there.
* From the UserServer, admin types 'logoff-user firstname lastname message'.
* Some regions may not get the message because they're not updated yet.
replaced by EventManager events.
also, i've added instructions to README.txt about running
runprebuild.sh and on how to report bugs.
plus some minor fixes (dropping m_log statement left over
from debugging llOwnerSay, nicer catch of exception in
IRCBridgeModule
