OurGrid 4.2.5

We are proud to announce that the OurGrid version 4.2.5 has just been released. This version contains several bug fixes, specially a blocker one regarding file transfer (http://redmine.lsd.ufcg.edu.br/issues/779), that caused executions to hang. Improvements on logging, and the release of OurGrid Charts were also made during the delelopment of OurGrid 4.2.5. You can see the changelog for this version here.

Important!

Our XMPP server (xmpp.ourgrid.org) is now running ejabberd, due to an openfire issue that caused out-of-order message delivery. Remote sites running openfire will eventually fail and be disconnected from the OurGrid community, so we strongly recommend OurGrid site administrators to move to ejabberd.

Several changes were made in the ejabberd default configuration file in order to have it working with OurGrid. Concerning that, we are providing a template configuration file, so that administrators can replace their default ejabberd configuration for this one and only change the hostname and the IP of the host. An ejabberd installation guide is available here.

Enjoy it!
