XmlRpcGroups module
As of rev 9215 in the OpenSim SVN repo, there is now an experimental groups module, XmlRpcGroups, which interacts with a remote XMLRPC service to provide basic groups functionality.
To enable basic groups functionality on rev 9215 or later, the Groups section of your OpenSim.ini should look something like:
[Groups] Enabled = true ; This is the current groups stub in Region.CoreModules.Avatar.Groups ;Module = Default ; The PHP code for the server is available from the Flotsam project for you to deploy ; to your own server. The Flotsam project is located at http://code.google.com/p/flotsam/ ; Module = GroupsModule ; Enable Group Notices NoticesEnabled = true ; This makes the Groups modules very chatty on the console. DebugEnabled = true ; Specify which messaging module to use for groups messaging and if it's enabled MessagingModule = GroupsMessagingModule MessagingEnabled = true ; Service connector to Groups Service [Select One] ; XmlRpc Service Connector to the Flotsam XmlRpc Groups Service Implementation ServicesConnectorModule = XmlRpcGroupsServicesConnector XmlRpcServiceURL = http://yourxmlrpcserver.com/xmlrpc.php ;XmlRpcServiceReadKey = 1234 ;XmlRpcServiceWriteKey = 1234 ; Disables HTTP Keep-Alive for XmlRpcGroupsServicesConnector HTTP Requests, ; this is a work around fora problem discovered on some Windows based region servers. ; Only disable keep alive if you see a large number (dozens) of the following Exceptions: ; System.Net.WebException: The request was aborted: The request was canceled. ; ; XmlRpcDisableKeepAlive = false
The XmlRpcServiceReadKey and XmlRpcServiceWriteKey options were implemented in OpenSim SVN rev 9354, and can allow a groups service operator to require a region to provide a read and/or write key in order to access that particular group service.
The XMLRPC service for groups at osflotsam.org is a public test service. If you'd instead like to run your own on your own web server, you can download the code for it from http://code.google.com/p/flotsam/ , specifically what's in trunk/Groups/php , and adjust it and your OpenSim.ini accordingly. More info here and here.
