CGI, PHP, etc...
Has anyone successfully managed to get PHP workingwith Orion? Their is some mention of "com.evermind.server.http.CGIServlet", but that doesn't seem to come with the Orion package, and the evermind site is in German - or something - and I can't find the classes. (I only speak english!:p) What classes are available for a CGI servlet, and how do we obtain them? Thanks, Jeremy
EJB Demo Problems
Hi, I'm trying to run the EJB demos and I'm having problems, some of which I've resolved. I followed the instructions in demo/ejb/install.txt The first problem occurred during auto-deployment. Here is the text. java -jar orion.jar Auto-deploying ejbsamples... Auto-deploying product... Auto-creating table: create table MyProduct (id integer not null primary key, price float null, name varchar (255) null, description varchar (255) null) done. Auto-deploying cart... done. Auto-deploying usermanager... Auto-creating table: create table com_evermind_ejb_EJBUser (username varchar (255) not null primary key, certificateSerial varchar (100) null, locale varchar (5) null, description varchar (255) null, password varchar (255) null, certificateIssuerDN varchar (255) null) Auto-creating table: create table com_evermind_ejb_EJBUser_groups (value varchar (255) not null, username varchar (255) not null, primary key (value, username)) Warning: Error creating table: ORA-00972: identifier is too long done. Auto-deploying product... done. Auto-deploying cart... done. Orion/0.9.1g initialized The problem is that the table name com_evermind_ejb_EJBUser_groups is too long (31 characters) for Oracle . Resolution is to edit the demo/ejb/usermanager/orion/orion-ejb-jar.xml file. added the table attribute as follows: The next is that I can't run the client. The instructions are not quite correct. The classpath should be ../../../ejb.jar etc instead of ../../ejb.jar and could use a :. for unix to find the CartClient. This is the output: java -classpath ../../../orion.jar:../../../ejb.jar:../../../jndi.jar:. CartClient Communication error: Lookup error: java.lang.SecurityException: Invalid username/password Any help on the security issue would be appreciated. BTW, I did modify principles.xml as specified. Thanks, Eric
JSP set property
I've asked this a couple times and still haven't gotten a response: How come setProperty with a * doesn't work? Like this: This code works in all other Servlet/JSP engines I've used, why doesn't it work in Orion (I'm using .9g I believe) ??!! James Dalrymple Telesoft Corp.
Problems while connecting to ejb server
Hi again, i tried to write a client for my freshly deployed bean and ran into a problem about looking up the jndi context "the right way". I assume, that the "application-client.xml" gives some hints about the jndi names of the deployed bean(s) in an ejb-jar. And on creating the initial context with the "com.evermind.server.ApplicationClientInitialContextFactory" and an url like "ormi://servername/appname", orion tries to look up an appropriate application-client.xml for that application. However, i get strange results with this. First of all, i wasn't able to create an initial context for my application, since orion complained about missing application client values. Unfortunately i cannot reproduce this behaviour (see below) and therefore cannot give the exact error message. I than had a look at the samples and tried them: I created an initial context for the samples like that: Hashtable h = new Hashtable(); h.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,"com.evermind.server.ApplicationClient InitialContextFactory"); h.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "ormi://beatnix.net-media.de/ejbsamples"); h.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, "admin"); h.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "123"); Context context = new InitialContext(h); with only one application in the server.xml, that is ejbsamples. This works, even remote (actually i replaced the new InitialContext(); of the CartClient sample). Then i changed my server.xml to contain only my application's ear (created with the j2ee deployment wizard) and changed the client appropriate: Hashtable h = new Hashtable(); h.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,"com.evermind.server.ApplicationClient InitialContextFactory"); h.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "ormi://beatnix.net-media.de/BaseModule"); h.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, "admin"); h.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "123"); Context context = new InitialContext(h); This leads to the following exception: java.lang.InstantiationException: No location specified and no suitable instance of the type 'Cart' found for the ejb-ref MyCart at com.evermind.server.rmi.au.invokeMethod(JAX) at com.evermind.server.rmi.al.invoke(JAX) at Proxy0.getEJBHome(Unknown Source) at com.evermind.server.fo.aca(JAX) at com.evermind.server.ApplicationClientInitialContextFactory.getInitialContext (JAX) at javax.naming.spi.NamingManager.getInitialContext(NamingManager.java:668) at javax.naming.InitialContext.getDefaultInitCtx(InitialContext.java:246) at javax.naming.InitialContext.init(InitialContext.java:222) at javax.naming.InitialContext.(InitialContext.java:198) at de.netmedia.ejb.test.clienttest.main(clienttest.java:59) javax.naming.NamingException: Error reading application-client descriptor: No location specified and no suitable instance of the type 'Cart' found for the ejb-ref MyCart at com.evermind.server.ApplicationClientInitialContextFactory.getInitialContext (JAX) at javax.naming.spi.NamingManager.getInitialContext(NamingManager.java:668) at javax.naming.InitialContext.getDefaultInitCtx(InitialContext.java:246) at javax.naming.InitialContext.init(InitialContext.java:222) at javax.naming.InitialContext.(InitialContext.java:198) at de.netmedia.ejb.test.clienttest.main(clienttest.java:59) What ? Cart ? MyCart ? I ensure, i uncommented the ejbsamples application in my server.xml. And my Clients code not even mentions these names, neither the beans code/xmls. Am i missing something ? Is there any further information on how to set up the application-client.xml and where to place it ? Is there any chance to actually "see" which application-client.xml is used by orion (something like a debug mode) ?

Some general questions
By the way, i have some general questions (which i cannot try out myself for other problems, see my other mail): - is it true, that an ear created with the j2ee deployment wizard should be able to be deployed on orion without modifications ? If not, which are these modifications (does this have to do with the application-client.xml ?) ? - may an ear contain more than one ejb-jars (like the j2ee allows) ? - are you planning some visual tools for deployment (like the j2ee deployment wizard e.g.) and/or administration of the server ? I know, the server itself isn't ready yet, but just to get some glance in the eyes..

Re: Orion in high load production environment
Hullo, Orion users: I'd like to know a short description of the hardware used with Orion to get this performance of load handling: number of servers, features of the servers (RAM, cache, processor,... ) OS, DataBase...
