You should try pja. It does not require any XWindow server running and I 
use the same fonts available on win...

Hmm. What _Java_ needs is a way to render graphics (incl. fonts)
without relying on a running host windowing system. And, what do
you know, that is actually coming our way.  :-)

I do _not_ need/want a GUI running on my UNIX/Linux servers,
thank you very much. Be it X11 or a (highly unlikely) replacement.

RE: Interests sake

I totally agree on your last statement about the need of having some 
XWindows  more "windows" like, but I do not agree on the problem with pja. 
Maybe I was using simple "semi-artistic" fonts, bur the result was at the 
same level that the same application run on windows.

Anyway, it's just a matter of opinion and I do not think this is the right 
place. I'm sorry for the OT.

Orion Bug or not?

[Patrick Lightbody]

I have a test.jsp file that is calling a class "DocumentDelegate":

<%
// 2304 is a test document
DocumentDelegate dd = new DocumentDelegate(2304);
dd.doAction(1, null, "plightbo");
// this action is supposed to throw an exception
//   because the action, 1, is not allowed right now
%>

DocumentDelegate.doAction() in turn calls a session bean:

DocumentMgr.doAction(long docId, int action, Hashtable params, String userId)
{
try {
  Workflow workfow = new TACWorkflow();
  workflow.action(docId, action, userId, params);
} catch (Exception e) {
throw new EJBException(e.getMessage());
}
}

In turn, the code in workflow.action() is doing:
throw new EJBException("This workflow step can't be called right now");

--
Now that I got that out of the way... when I hit test.jsp on the browser, 
the exception shows up on the browser and I can see the transaction.log 
show up in the console. But... if I hit the page again with the browser, 
nothing happens at all. No transaction logs, no System.out.println() 
statements, nothing. I have to click stop on the browser. When I click 
reload, now TWO transactions (and System.out.println()) statements show up 
(this one and the last one). What is going on here?

I changed workflow.action() to just return; instead of throwing an 
EJBException, then the transactions take place as they should and the print 
statements show up as they should. I tried chaning EJBException to other 
exceptions, and the same problem occurs. Why would a thrown Exception cause 
this behavior?

To recap: test.jsp calls class DocumentDelegate, which calls DocumentMgr 
session bean, which in turn loads up a class TACWorkflow and calls a method 
there.

RE: Understanding XML files

Scott has put a lot of work into this document, so I'll try and do a mental
brain dump of all the things left out / wrong.

Don't get me wrong - this is an excellent document with a few corrections
(see below).

If people add their thoughts / experiences to it over the next few days,
I'll put up a summary of all the contributions under one doc on
OrionSupport.

These are both just web-site.xml files ( see
http://www.orionserver.com/docs/web-site.xml.html ). Default-web-site.xml is
just the 'default' website set up when Orion is installed , the contents of
it's WAR are at ./default-web-app (read on for more details)

Note you cannot have two web-apps with the same root (and you can only have
one default-web-app - this is fairly obvious I guess). I don't know what
happens if you have directories in one web-app (eg WAR A has /foobar) that
overwrite another web-app's root (eg you bind WAR B to /foobar). My guess is
the second web app would work and the first wouldn't (I don't think this is
documented anywhere, shouldn't be too hard to test though)

This is setup by default in the install, so as to make the default web site
work. (See above). Feel free to remove this for a production machine.

Or multiple IPs. Or SSL and non SSL sites (possibly same IP/domain but two
 's)

This is a bit of a misnomer (I've complained to the orion guys about this
file, it's misnamed). It's actually not an application.xml file in the J2EE
sense (the descriptor for an EAR), it's an orion-application.xml file (the
app-server specific deployment descriptor for an EAR) - see the tags inside
it to confirm if you want.

When creating your own applications, you need to create your own
application.xml. Orion will create the orion-application.xml file for you
and you can tweak it from there.

True. If you want to deploy a simple WAR file under Orion (using the
default, factory configuration settings) you add it as a  to
this file (./config/application.xml) and then add a  to
./default-web-site.xml and you're set. (This is what Scott say's verbosely
below ;))

I tried it.  Didn't produce fonts much (if at all) better than XWindows.
Also tried the xvfb, which was by far the worst option.

One thing you can say about MS Windows is that it does an excellent job
of rendering text :-)  What Linux needs is a ground-up replacement for

Understanding XML files

[SCOTT FARQUHAR]

I'm still learning about this, but here's my attempt at a primer to understand how the 
xml files fit together.

Please feel free to correct any omissions or inaccuracies.
~
Default-web-site.xml / web-site.xml
+++

This represents a website.  Because you may be serving multiple web sites on one box 
(either for multiple IP's, or multiple domains - ie. orionsupport.com and 
opensymphony.com could be on the same box), you configure a web-site.xml for each of 
them.

Inside this file you configure a default-web-app & multiple web-apps.  The parameters 
to these tags are as follows:





application:the application as defined in server.xml (tag in server.xml is 
"application", and the parameter is "name").  ie. from above I have an application 
named EJBDemo in server.xml

name: the web application's name as defined in that particular application.  ie.  
Inside my application.xml for EJBDemo, there is a web-application named "ejbdemo-web".

root:  where you web-app is rooted on the tree.  From the above "localhost/ejbdemo/" 
would correspond with the web-app "ejbdemo-web" in application "EJBDemo".


Server.xml
++

There is only one of these per server, so it is the root point for all the other files.

Of particular note are the lines:


 

These lines show me what websites and what applications I have running.  You would 
only need multiple web-site's if you are serving multiple domains.

On the other hand, you may have many applications.  If you have many web-applications 
you will need to add them into your websites as listed above.

Application.xml
+++

If you are creating a full-blown application, you are best to create a separate one of 
these for each application.  Inside here you define modules.  These can be web 
modules, ejb modules, or java modules.

If they are web modules, you will want to add them to a website in order to view them.


Creating a quick and dirty jsp
++
However - many people have asked about quickly deploying a jsp in a default way.  In 
this case you are probably best to modify the file application.xml that resides in 
/config/ with the other xml files.

Simply add a web module to this file, and then add that particular web module to your 
default-web-site.xml

eg. You want to create a web-app called "jsp-test" that will be show at 
"localhost/jsp-test/"

+ Create the directory "jsp-test" under orion - ie "orion/jsp-test"
+ add the following line to "orion/config/application.xml"

+ add the following line to "orion/config/default-web-site.xml"

+ create the directory "web-inf" under jsp-test - ie "orion/jsp-test/web-inf"
+ copy the file "web.xml" from "orion/default-web-app/web-inf/web.xml" to 
+"orion/jsp-test/web-inf/web.xml"
+ if you wish to add anything (ie servlets), add them to the file 
+"orion/jsp-test/web-inf/web.xml"
+ start the server.

You should be able to view jsp's that are put in "orion/jsp-test" now at 
"localhost/jsp-test".

Thanks Johan, Scott, and Tim

I did try to reconcile and follow all of your advice; I did learn something,
but basically it's all gummed up now.

what's missing here for me is:

a fundamental understanding of the relationships between
server, website, web app, web module, 
 --and-- 
global application, default web app

,what files these should be defined in, and where these file go.

for expample, is the default web app just another app, or is it a special
thing that must be there untampered-with.

It's all pretty bewildering to a newbie, and nowhere on orion site do i see a
straightforward explanation/primer of the above. AFTER I grasp this, i'm less
likely to ask dumb config questions or make things worse.

Subject: Form-based
authentication: original request URI...?

 

Hi,

 

I managed to get forms-based
authentication working (Orion 1.4.5/Win2K), but I have a question.  Here
is what happens:

 

    1) user tries to access
protected resource "protected.jsp"

 

    2) Orion redirects user
to the login page "login.jsp" instead

 

    3) user enters
*incorrect* userid/password and submits the form

 

    4) Orion shows the
error page "error.jsp", as it should

 

So far, so good, but on the error page I'd
like to say something like "click here to retry," with a link to the
*original* page that triggered the authentication in the first place (in this
case "protected.jsp").  Note that if I put a link to
"login.jsp" on the error page, the user will be stuck in a loop as
successful authentication will just redisplay the login page itself.

 

The question is:  is there a way
(either inside the login page or in the error page) of somehow determining what
the original request URI was that triggered the authentication to begin
with?  I already tried request.getRequestURI() inside
"login.jsp," but it evaluates to "login.jsp," not
"protected.jsp" as I'd like.  Clearly Orion stores the original
request URI somewhere (otherwise it wouldn't know where to go after a
successful login), but how can I get at this information???

 

    Any help would be
greatly appreciated!

Except for the well-known occasional linux JVM quirks it runs OK.

We're running Solaris/Linux and Win2K, and I know of a couple of people

I solved my problem accessing EJB's.

[Harley Rana]

Hey i have figured out how to access a EJB from a client, not packaged in a
.ear.
If i tryed to access the bean by calling
context.lookup("java:comp/env/ejb/SomeBean");
, you get a exception stating the client must be a J2EE component.

The way around was to look at the file
E:\orion\application-deployments\AppName\hello-world-ejb.jar\orion-ejb-jar.x
ml, a get the value of location within 

Form-based authentication: original request URI...?

[Attila Bodis]

Hi,
 
I managed to get forms-based authentication working (Orion 
1.4.5/Win2K), but I have a question.  Here is what happens:
 
    1) user tries to access protected resource 
"protected.jsp"
 
    2) Orion redirects user to the login page 
"login.jsp" instead
 
    3) user enters *incorrect* userid/password 
and submits the form
 
    4) Orion shows the error page "error.jsp", 
as it should
 
So far, so good, but on the error page I'd like to say 
something like "click here to retry," with a link to the *original* page that 
triggered the authentication in the first place (in this case 
"protected.jsp").  Note that if I put a link to "login.jsp" on the error 
page, the user will be stuck in a loop as successful authentication will just 
redisplay the login page itself.
 
The question is:  is there a way (either inside the login 
page or in the error page) of somehow determining what the original request URI 
was that triggered the authentication to begin with?  I already tried 
request.getRequestURI() inside "login.jsp," but it evaluates to "login.jsp," not 
"protected.jsp" as I'd like.  Clearly Orion stores the original request URI 
somewhere (otherwise it wouldn't know where to go after a successful login), but 
how can I get at this information???
 
    Any help would be greatly 
appreciated!

How many number of JVMs can be created on Orion?

[sub k]

Hi,
I just like to know, how many number of JVMs can be
created on Orion server? I know it is mostly based on
machine configuration, Are there any statistics on
this? and I would also like to know, how many JVMs can
be created for EJBContainer too?
Thanks

Re: broken default web app - not found

[joey sark]

originally from the install the default-web-app had no 
META-INF/ 
directory nor a 
META-INF/application.xml
but there is one in config/

then when i replaced default with my app, i kept the same config. during a
trial of someone's advice, i did add 
applictions/pussycat/Web-inf (windows refuses to let me all-cap it)
but I did not see that it made any difference.

You should try pja. It does not require any XWindow server running and I 
use the same fonts available on win...

This message comes from the JDBC Driver NOT from orion...
We get that error when there is something wrong with the DB (i.e. down, etc)
.  Also the JDBC driver your are using should match the Orcale db version
you are using.

RE: Database Connectivity Problems

[elephantwalker]

sounds like an ipchains problem(if its linux) or a net8 problem. You could
have a rule set up on the standby box which prevents getting messages from
net8 but allows sending messages to net8. Try running a sql*plus client from
the same box that orion runs on, and see if you can connect to the oracle
box. If not, you know its a port problem or a net8 config problem, and not
an issue with orion.

also...do the normal things like, can you ping the standby oracle box.

we run orion against different boxes with oracle all of the timeno
problems.

Subject: Database Connectivity Problems


Ok I am completely baffled by this. We are running orion 1.4.4 and I am
having severe problems connecting to my Oracle database.  Actually modifying
the connection to my database.

   I have 2 Oracle Databases running on different servers.  One is our
production server and the other is a standby server.  I attempted to test
orion on my staging server against the standby database and I get a Network
Adapter error.  When I point it to the Oracle database that It first ran
against it works fine, change the IP address in the data-sources.xml file to
the standby it dies. (All I am changing is the last 2 numbers).  If I change
the IP address to the fully qualified hostname of the production database it
dies with the same error.  In the Oracle logs I can see the connections, but
Orion still gives a  "The Network Adapter could not establish the
connection".  If I try the same thing on the development boxes it works
perfectly fine, I change between the databases at will.

I have tried deleting the application-deployments directory, the persistence
directory, the entire application directory and redeploying from scratch,
searching through the complete directory tree for any reference to the OLD
DB or it's IP address.  I have search bugzilla, and the mailling list
archives and still I am completely baffled.  Does anyone have any ideas why
it would not allow me to change the database it is going against. (I swear
all I am changing is a 47 to an 88, the databases are identical otherwise.)

RE: Orion as a Win2000 service ?

[Thomas Pridham]

Here is the command we issued to register Orion as a service:

D:\JNT "/InstallAsService: Orion" "/SD" -jar
d:\\orion.jar -userThreads

If you don't use threads, leave off the last switchgood luck!

My question is that how can it work? It seems that JVMI does not support
.JAR files(?).
I've created a .Cmd file (not sure about those scripts, but should do the
same):

REM ###

SET home=%ORION_HOME% # the starting dir of the service

REM # Running as an http server.
REM cmdline=$exe$ (YOUR ORION COMMAND LINE HERE)
%exe% -jar orion.jar

But it does not work:

C:\orion>REM ###

recursive bug

[elephantwalker]

Group,

I just found this little *feature* in Orion (1.4.8). If you put in an error
page in you web.xml:


  404
  /main/404.html



where main is the entry point to a Type 2 controller servlet, the
request.getPathInfo() from the servlet will return the OLD path prior to the
error, versus the new path (old path = /badurl, new path=/404.html). Its a
little bothersome, since the servlet is my Type 2 controller, and needs to
process all requests for resources, including the error page.

I get a recursion error from Orion. Is this per the spec?

Regards,

the Elephantwalker

Thanks!!  About an hour after I sent this, 
I discovered the web.xml file was pointing at index.html, NOT index.jsp as I had

stepping through my code in VC and Orion..

RE: Interests sake

[Jeff Schnitzer]

For production, Win2K/Orion 1.4.7/PostgreSQL.  For development,
Win2K/Orion 1.4.8/hsql.  I'll probably move the production box to 1.4.8
soon since it seems to work well enough with my code.  I have test
systems running Linux/PostgreSQL too.

The only problem with Win2K is that it's a pain to get everything set up
as a service.  RunExeSvc doesn't work with Win2K, and I haven't yet
spent the time needed to get any of the various JNI service adapters
working.  So I'm still starting my sytem by hand from a terminal
services window (which means the app server, an rmi server, and
tnameserv).  Yes, I'm playing fast and loose with my site
availability... but in the year or so I've had the machine, it has never
crashed or involuntarily rebooted :-)

With Linux it's much easier to configure Java apps as daemons, but I
can't render my dynamic images with any reasonable quality - XWindows
renders fonts like a three-year-old with a half-eaten crayon :-)

you might also want to check out the primers at http://www.jollem.com for extra tips, but i

My guess is that this is depending on that Kawa can't find the Orion server 
(installed locally) or a security issue ?

Re: broken default web app - not found

[joey sark]

Thanks Johan, Scott, and Tim

I did try to reconcile and follow all of your advice; I did learn something,
but basically it's all gummed up now.

what's missing here for me is:

a fundamental understanding of the relationships between
server, website, web app, web module, 
 --and-- 
global application, default web app

,what files these should be defined in, and where these file go.

for expample, is the default web app just another app, or is it a special
thing that must be there untampered-with.

It's all pretty bewildering to a newbie, and nowhere on orion site do i see a
straightforward explanation/primer of the above. AFTER I grasp this, i'm less
likely to ask dumb config questions or make things worse.

thanks to anyone who can point me in the right direction.

Suspend/Resume?

[Chaya Ramanujam]

BEA's WebLogic allows you to suspend the weblogic server and later resume 
its operations.  Suspending the server suspends server response to HTTP 
requests (this could be useful when one server is running as a *hot* backup 
- keep the backup server in a suspended state till you want it to start 
processing requests).

Is something similar possible for Orion? Or does Orion only support 
startup/shutdown/restart for the server?

Thanks.

Re: www.orionsupport.com / JMS

[KirkYarina]

Your nslookup output is normal.  All this means is that your name server 
has, properly, cached the lookup - and since the cached copy comes from an 
NS that's not authoritative for the domain it's flaged as 
non-authoritative.  This is completely normal; nothing to worry about.  Go 
snag a copy O'Reilly's DNS and Bind and look at the nslookup chapter; page 
268 in the third edition.

The web site could be up or down; all you can tell from nslookup is that 
their name service is working correctly.  BTW, orionsupport.com's owner 
(not IronFlare...) has said several times that the web site is his 
development machine, and goes down occasionally when he needs it for other 
purposes.

Here's an example - I used a machine that hasn't looked up orionsupport.com 
recently, and did two nsllookups.  The first lookup came from 
orionsupport.com's name server, the second from our name server's 
cache.  Try it yourself on some random domain, like pigsareflying.com .

$ nslookup www.orionsupport.com
Server:  localhost
Address:  127.0.0.1

Name:www.orionsupport.com
Address:  64.31.131.243

$ nslookup www.orionsupport.com
Server:  localhost
Address:  127.0.0.1

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:www.orionsupport.com
Address:  64.31.131.243

SV: can't find classes - help

Title: SV: can't find classes - help

Newbie Question.

[Greg Mowery]

Hi,
 I'm new to the group, and orion, so I hope 
that you'll put up with what may be stupid simple questions for a 
bit.
I've installed Orion, and am trying to port a very 
simple proof of concept app to it, just to get it running.( the total app is 2 
jsps, one servlet, and one tag). I followed directions, to the best that I can, 
followed threads here, picking up hints and tips that have helped. The BEST that 
I can get is a 403(forbidden) error on http://127.0.0.1/  ( and I was HAPPY when I 
got that instead of 404's :). )
    Can anyone point me on the right 
direction from here? ( FAQ, docs, hey stupiddo THIS!! ...)
 
Thanks
 
Greg
 

Some problems implementing EJB 2.0 type OR

[James Donnelly]

Hi,

I'm trying to change the way my application does OR on my entity beans.  I
have encountered a problem.

Using Orion 1.4.8.

I have an EJB which has a vector field, listIDs, which contains Integer ID
references to child EJBs.  In my EJB code I have used the following syntax:

public static final Class listIDs_type=java.lang.Integer.class;

This seems to work on deployment, as there is a new table created called
..Catalogue_elementList on the next deployment.   However when I try to
execute some code I get a :

ClassCastException: Assigning instance of class java.util.ArrayList to field
com.evermind.server.ejb.ORVector#list

Any ideas?

Cheers,

James

Well, my first post (I finally coerced the mailing list to let me subscribe):

get the latest version of  jaxp.jar from java.sun.com. I had this problem 
when upgrading 1.4.5 to 1.4.8. I didn't get the problem when upgrade a 
clean copy of 1.4.5 to 1.4.8 though. Good luck!

There should be a tutorial on orionsupport. It seems 
to be down, but do a search on 
google
and look at the cached 
pages there.
 
If it's message driven 
beans you want to learn there's a good article on 
JDJ:
http://www.sys-con.com/java/archives/0601/westra/index.html
 
It's for WLS 6 but works 
for Orion.

*Polite* suggestion ... 

Everyone mail Adam directly with OS flavour, he collates, and posts
results to the list (which would be very interesting, I do agree).
Saves a lot of traffic through all our mailboxes.

session sharing still bad

[Fleming Shi]

After I changed  between 2 web-sites, the 
session data I place use setAttribute and getAttribute still don't sync 
up.  That means the session data is not shared.  I messed around with 
orion-web.xml also, playing with  tag, not much 
luck.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: property files or similar

[Srikanth Bellalacheruvu]

Hi,

You can continue to use properties file, and here's an alternative to
hardcoding the file system path in your app.

First create a jar within which your properties file exists. For example, if
your property file is called props.ini you could put it with the path
"com/foo/props.ini" within some jar, say "comfoo.jar".

Place comfoo.jar in {ORIONHOME}/lib folder. You can bypass problems with
classpath settings by placing your jar file here.

Then, in your application where you use the properties file, get the
classloader and you can get the properties file as a resource. The following
code might be useful.

/* - */

Properties props = new Properties();
ClassLoader clsLdr = .getClass().getClassLoader();
InputStream instr = clsLdr.getResourceAsStream("com/foo/props.ini");

props.load(instr);

/* - */

  I haven't tried running the web component out of a servlet

  First I would try naming your ejb something like ejb/whip/find/memberfinder 
  and reference it the same way in your web component. If this works, then you 
  might try using the  tag on the web side to map a web 
  component name like ejb/my_find to your ejb in question. I would be interested

RE: Stateless Session Beans

Scotty,

What is the need for this? Any stateless session variable can have a normal
variable that's initialised in the ejbActivate() and ejbCreate() methods.
static variables are fugly in a distributed environment because they're only
per JVM - remember this !

Orion and Foundry

[Brian Galdino]

Is it possible to utilize Orion's HttpSession replication when using a 
Foundry ServerIron for load balancing?

I am attempting to use Orion's load balancer without a hardware solution 
(for now at least).  Currently i am using two servers each acting as a 
dedicated load balancer for two cluster islands of three servers each.  
I am getting out of memory exceptions from the load balancer (which is 
running redhat 6.2 with 256 MB ram)

Can anyone shed some light on this as well as optimum hardware 
configurations for an orion load balancer.

Thanks

RE: Interests sake

Personally Linux, but you can add an interesting option: Solaris 8.0 for 
x86.

My gut feeling and some circumstantial evidence (a.o. the infamous test in 
which MS outperformed  Linux 2.2 on a 'big' SMP box) gives me the 
impression Solaris could out perform Linux in the TCP/IP arena. I have seen 
no performance tests to support this theory. I would be interested though.

As a bonus you get more sysadm support tools (network installation etc).

[Note: the test I'm referring to is a head to head comparison of MS giants 
a Linux 2.2 kernel, showing that Linux lost in due to their TCP/IP 
implementation. The 2.4 kernel
has to my knowledge a improved TCP/IP stack.]

How to avoid serialization of sessions on the server?

[Ismael]

On the application-deploytment\yourapp\ there is a orionweb.xml file that 
is used by Orion to define
data about how the server will work.

There is an option that define on which folder the server will serialize 
the session. This way if a the server
does down then when it is restarted it is able to load the sessions it had 
running.

Is there a way to avoid this behavior. I mean, I think this is slowing 
down  the overall performance and it is a feature
that I do not need. Then I would like to remove this feature.

Is this possible?

I am working with orion 1.4.5 .

RE: Stateless Session Beans

[elephantwalker]

I believe that the servletContext which can meet the bill for you. Have a
servlet initialize on loading the application, you can control that in the
web.xml. Whenever the slsb is initialized, pass the servelet context, and
get your application class with a servletContext.getAttribute("myClass").

You can also get a env reference, and let the slsb get the reference (if its
a simple object you want).

I'm hoping that someone can help me with this.

Can you have a stateless session bean that actually has class variables?

Ie I want to have a variable that is loaded once per application, and then
accessed by all the whole application.

I know that SLSB are pooled and created and destroyed at will - but will
they be created with the variable containing a value?

Title: Please Help on jms -urgent



I want to run my application locally on the same 
machine.   Once I succeed in doing that I will think of running my 
java application on different machine.  In jms.xml I tried by giving the 
machine name instead of the localhost still I don't have any 
luck.

  Make 
  sure you have edited your jms.xml file to specify your particular server, 
  otherwise it will default to 127.0.0.1.

I want to write a simple java application and able to access the JMS
messages which are in orion server.  I enabled the jms server in orion and I
wrote a web app(jsp) which puts messages in the message server.  Now I want
to write a seperate java application through which I want to retrieve the
messages.  Any suggestions how to do this.

Thanks in advance

Kesav
