Which JDK?

2000-04-07 Thread Raymond Offiah
Hi, I've just installed Netscape 6, and now I can't start Orion. It seems that it checks the registry for Version 1.2 of the Java RunTime, but Netscape 6 upgrades it to 1.3. Is there any way around this, since I have other stuff that needs JDK1.3. Thanks.

Hello, Does Prosyst's server really implement all J2EE standards? I thought they were still supporting the obsolete JSP 1.0 specifcation and Servlet 2.1. In J2EE, JSP 1.1 and Servlet 2.2 is required. However, I might have missed when they upgraded to JSP 1.1/Servlet 2.2. Oops, getting very

Admin Tools

2000-04-07 Thread Robert Keith (UK)
Hi Guys, Are there any admin tools out there for Orion. I have looked at all the various XML files, but the docs are not detailed enough to explain what the all do, and the hardest thing is working out how they all fit together. If anyone can give me hand with this it would greatly appreciated.

Problem accessing a native library in a servlet

2000-04-07 Thread Cristian Pirvu
How can I access a native library (a dll in my case) from a servlet and not get the java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError exception? I tried setting the lib path to point to the file and I even tried to put the dll into the orion/lib directory but still doesn't work. Can anyone help me here?

Hello Dave, Something's weird with your Orion installation or version, the class you're referring to is an old class (pre-JSP 1.1 final), Orion does not use this class anymore (as it's not in the spec anymore). Does this appear for you using the latest official version? (That is 0.9.4) /Karl

A good way to learn what the XML files do, is look at the J2EE specification. There are standard files, which are not really documented in Orion, but are documented to a great extend in the J2EE specification. Then there are specific orion deployment files. These are not documented too well,

I have a simple Session BEAN with 1 method which prints a message to the server's console. I start two clients, each looks up the home and creates a new session bean. They start calling the function in a tight loop. After some time (100 to 500) calls one of the client stops calling. A bit

2000-04-07 Thread Karl Avedal
Hello, There's no problem having many JDK:s installed on the same box. Also, Orion does indeed run best with JDK 1.3 if you have it. If Netscape has messed up your jvm somehow you can always set the path to point to the old jdk or start it using c:\path\to\your\old\jdk\bin\java -jar orion.jar

Quite simply, they're run off their feet at the moment. I know quite a few of the team and they're currently madly coding, documenting and supporting existing installs - trying to get the best quality 1.0 product out the door they can. For my mind Orion is extremely stable for a product thats
