New Post: Trident Workflow would not Run

abahrami — Wed, 22 May 2013 17:21:43 GMT

We have created a workflow using Trident . Which worked before but when we try to demo it, trident workflow would not start and we were unable to make it to run. Whenever we try to run it, It would go to Wait state then after a while it display a message saying do you want keep waiting or abort. Any Idea where we need to look as what is the source of problem?
Thanks

At the time of the Trident installation, if you had marked the Silverlight checkbox then Trident Silverlight application will be installed. You can access then through start button menu or directly typing the url.

The machines log on credentials should have access right over the other machine. The users should be added on both the machines as admins.

The problem is in the dll version. The trident uses .NET Framework 4.0. Let me know if you have any further issue.

New Post: Multiple users logon issue

jitkang — Wed, 27 Mar 2013 13:45:56 GMT

Hello,

I am new to Project Trident. I am currently facing problem which I could not solve. Before I install Project Trident, I had already installed SQL Server 2008 Developer edition. After I install Project Trident on the same workstation where the SQL server is installed, everything seems to be working without issue. Then, I tried to install Project Trident on another computer running Windows 7. The installation is successful and connection to the database is successful. However, when I try to launch the Project Trident on the first machine, it generates an "user not authorized" error. Both computer are logged in to the database with different username and both machines are having different account credential, different IP addresses, and different hostname. The problem exists if I reinstall Project Trident on my first computer and try to launch the application on second computer, same error popped out.

Can anyone guide me for this problem?

New Post: Trident governance model

wwahammy — Wed, 20 Mar 2013 16:59:48 GMT

This is very exciting! One thing to remember is that the CC license requires we cite the original source of the document which is "Meritocratic Governance Model" by University of Oxford.

I'd love to hear what other members of the community think. Any suggestions for improvements or changes?

New Post: Trident governance model

inkouper — Wed, 20 Mar 2013 02:31:53 GMT

As an open source community, we're required to have a governance model. Below is a draft, please comment and suggest changes, updates and revisions (the draft is available as a doc file upon request). After a certain amount of time, we'll need to finalize this draft and post our governance model.

Trident Governance
Draft
March 15, 2013

Introduction and Guiding Principles

The goal of the Trident project is to assist users in automating tasks in experiment implementation or data analysis, management and preservation. This is achieved through the development and implementation of scientific workflows that become part of an integrated environment. The emphasis of Trident is on community involvement in the development and sharing of workflows as well as in the development of technical features for Trident system.

To effectively facilitate community involvement, Trident adopts the following guiding principles:

• Openness. Membership is open to all interested individuals who subscribe to Trident guiding principles and governing rules.
• Community. Trident is a public, community-driven body that develops via commitment and volunteer contributions of its members, supported by Trident Project Management Committee and by Trident Project Leader.
• Transparency. No decisions about the project’s direction, bug fixes or features may be done without community involvement and participation.
• Lazy Consensus. Lazy consensus is a process of reaching consensus with a minimal effort.
When a proposal is put forward, the default assumption is that the community already have consensus. Unless someone objects to the proposal, the work can begin. The proposals will have at least 72 hours before assuming that there are no objections. This requirement ensures that everyone is given enough time to read, digest and respond to the proposal.

Member Participation

The body of Trident community consists of individual members who are actively involved in its efforts. Organizations may also engage in Trident community. Individual or organizational members participate through the discussion forum or by assuming one of the roles described below. A member of the community may have multiple roles.

Roles and Responsibilities

The following roles can be assumed by members of Trident community.

User
Users are community members who are interested in using the Trident system to support their needs. They are the most important members of the community: without them, the project would have no purpose. Anyone can be a user; there are no specific requirements.
Users are encouraged to participate in the life of the project and the community as much as possible. User contributions enable the project team to ensure that they are satisfying the needs of those users. Common user activities include (but are not limited to):

• advocating for use of the project
• informing developers of project strengths and weaknesses
• writing documentation and tutorials
• filing bug reports and feature requests
• participating on the discussion board

How to become one: Use Trident

Contributors
Contributors are community members who submit pieces of code and patches to the project. These contributions may be a one-time occurrence or occur over time. Contributors are encouraged to submit patches that are small at first and grow larger once the contributor has built confidence in the quality of their patches.
Before a contributor’s first patch is put into the repository they must sign a Contributor License Agreement (CLA). The patch can be submitted and discussed but it can’t actually be committed to the repository without a signed CLA.
How to become one: Submit a patch to the Trident project at http://tridentworkflow.codeplex.com/

Committers
Committers are contributors who have shown dedication to Trident, technical expertise and the ability to work well with contributors and users. The committers have responsibilities beyond contributing patches. In particular, committers formally decide on whether patches are entered into the main code repository and add those requests. Additionally, they verify with Outercurve Foundation staff that a potential contributor has a signed CLA before committing a patch to the repository. A committer will use lazy consensus (see below) to decide on whether to commit a patch from a contributor. If the discussion is no longer moving towards a consensus, the committer may use their best judgment on whether to commit the patch.
How to become one: Be a contributor and be nominated to the PMC as a committer. You may nominate yourself.

Project Management Committee (PMC)
The project management committee (PMC) participates in strategic planning, release planning, and approving changes to the governance model. It also makes decisions when community consensus cannot be reached.
The PMC has final say over who can become a committer and will use lazy consensus for approval. Discussion over committer nominations will be done in private.
Membership of the PMC is by invitation from the existing PMC members. A nomination will result in discussion and then a vote by the existing PMC members. PMC membership votes are subject to consensus approval of the current PMC members and will be done in private.
How to become one: Be invited by a current PMC member and have nomination approved by the PMC.

Project Leader
A project leader is a member of the PMC whom the Outercurve Foundation staff consider the primary point of contact or first point of contact for the project for purposes of business operations including domain registrations, and technical services (e.g. code-signing).
In the event there are multiple project leaders, Outercurve staff will consider a request by any single leader as sufficient for action.
How to become one: Have nomination approved by members of the PMC.

Voting

The Trident project realizes that not all decisions can be made using lazy consensus. Issues affecting the strategic direction or legal standing of the project must gain explicit approval in the form of a vote. Every member of the community is encouraged to express their opinions in all discussion and all votes.

New Post: Difference between x86 and x64 builds

wwahammy — Wed, 30 Jan 2013 22:24:54 GMT

I guess my question is more related to the actual details of what is different between the two builds? Based upon what seems like a limited number of differences, I would think it'd be possible to build Trident as an AnyCPU. I just need to know if there's practical differences between the two and if so, whether they can be worked around.

New Post: External Web Service

abhisheks — Fri, 25 Jan 2013 08:33:23 GMT

It’s simple to create web service client Activity for Trident. By the web service client I mean that the activity will contact some web service to get some data (either synchronously or a synchronously).

Creating such activity is no different than making other activities. Inside the activity class you need to write your client code. In execute method you will contact the server to invoke your functionality.

There are few Web Activities sample in the Trident source code. Download the latest source code, the web activity project is located \Trident\Product\Activities\TridentWebActivities.

Thanks

New Post: Create Trident Activity with VS2010

abhisheks — Thu, 24 Jan 2013 07:28:19 GMT

No, you should develop the activities on .NET 4 framework/platform. All the Dlls you are using should be of version 4 (v4.0.30319). It should be found at C:\Program Files\Reference Assemblies\Microsoft\Framework\.NETFramework\v4.0 and the Trident assemblies from the Trident installation.

Good luck!

New Post: Create Trident Activity with VS2010

abahrami — Wed, 23 Jan 2013 14:12:42 GMT

Hi abhisheks,

I have downloaded the 1.2.1 is there another version? What I did was to change the .Net framework to 3.5 then create workflow activity then change it back to .Net Framework 4! is that correct procedure? took me could hours to do this. We are also working on connecting that to Haddoop. If you are aware of any sample project with Hadoop I am very much interested.

Great! But remember, the Trident, avialable for download is built upon .net framework 4. So, you can upgrade your projects/solutions to .NET 4 to work with latest build.
