I started this forum when I was doing ATG development for BR (mississauga portal, directv, nau.com, etc) in a time when there were literally NO useful forums available to find help. The only forums that did exist were implemented using ATG and were not googlable, thus were useless.
Now, almost 3 years later, there are a few other forums available that are both searchable by google, and have an active user base. I have ignored this forum for a while, so it's time to move activity elsewhere.
ALTERNATE ATG FORUMSThe following groups are more active, so you should be able to get faster responses.
Google Group: ATG_TechI don't remember if your registration is immediately active. If it isn't, this is a bad thing. These groups should be IMMEDIATELY accessible, which is why nabble is great.
Activity seems good here. This is probably your best bet.
Google Group: ATG Dynamo ServerI thought this group was run by someone I worked with in the past at BR, but I just registered for the group, and was immediately asked where I worked. Seems unfriendly immediately, which isn't a good sign.
I repeat, IT SHOULD BE EASY TO ACCESS THIS COMMUNITY. This is why I created this nabble group in the first place, so everyone could easily access the information, and post questions.
developer.sparkred.comSpark::red, an ATG Host, seems to be hosting a developer community. You get instant access once you register, but it is not easy to find the forum from your JIRA dashboard after registration (go back to developer.sparkred.com).
The forum runs on phpbb (or that other commercial version that looks like phpBB) and is supposed to allow single sign-on, but it didn't work for me, so I wasn't able to login to the forums.
Activity seems moderate, but higher than here.
While the alternatives aren't awesome (ATG_Tech seems okay so far), it is better than this forum right now.
Thanks for the good times.
- I enjoyed getting ATG running on my macbook pro back in the day.
- I enjoyed trying (unsuccessfully) to get ATG running using mysql back in the day - this is a particularly painful memory for Terrance.
- I learned ATG with Matt Y in the basement of the Mississauga City Centre. Awesome.
