Sridhar,

I found the issues for using sudo to the webapp account. You need to run the following command in order to become the webapp user.
"sudo -u webapp /bin/bash" then enter your passwd. If you are in your home directory you will get a permissions error like the one below.

[szb@haldevjbs01 ~]$ sudo -u webapp /bin/bash
bash: /home/szb/.bashrc: Permission denied

That is because the user webapp doesn't have write permissions in your home directory but you are now user webapp. Just cd out of your home directory. If you want to make sure your now webapp type "id" on the command line.

Thanks-

Mike Schumacher

If there are any other details regarding this project/application, I would suggest putting them on this page.

I spoke with Harold yesterday and he got the necessary info from the above wiki page and he restarted the App.

I have restarted ezAir test.
When requesting to restart this application can you refer to it as ezatst on haltstapp03. That way we won't get it confused with webtst which are different apps.

Thanks-

Mike

Setup POLAR Hotspot and Rules for Testing

Subject: Hot Spot set up for POLAR and Test Rules

Diana,

Sorry this took me a little longer than expected.

Below is a word document for setting up POLAR for Hotspot use.

Also, there are a few rules that need to be followed with regards to creating test air bookings.

1. Use bookings in POLAR which you know you created or at minimum are bookings you know where not loaded into the test region from Production.

2. When possible, use dates that are far out (6 months and beyond). If for some reason you must create records where the itin leaves within 7 days, you should advise Kristen or her designee so that they can immediately cancel the PNR. This should only be done on very rare cases for specific testing scenarios.

3. Use realistic names only i.e. Frank Johnson, Kelly Smith etc.

DO NOT USE

  • Cartoon Names
  • Celebrity Names
  • 'Test' names ie. TestUser1
  • or any other unrealistic names

4. Do not use the same name to build several Sabre PNRs
In other words don't use Frank Johnson for every booking you create in POLAR.  If you would like to continue using a booking try cancelling any air off the booking and then changing the passengers names completely before trying to book again using that booking

These rules apply because we are testing against the Sabre Production environment. This is necessary because they (Sabre) do not support their Certification environment which makes getting real search results and creating bookings difficult. We have a hard time telling when errors are related to Sabre data issues or our system issues.

I think that is about it. Penalties have been threatened by Sabre for violations of the above, so please keep the rules in mind.

Thanks everyone, please let me know if you have any questions.
