ANSWER: How to use pooled connections in Orion?

[Goel, Deepak]

Hello everyone,

I've seen that many people are confused over how to setup pooled connections
in Orion (even I was initially). Now since I figured out through
documentation and through some hit and try, I would like to share these
instructions. Keep in mind that this is only one way of setting it up and
there are other ways to setup depending on capabilities of the driver.

1. Basically, the first step is to create a non-pooled version of your data
source. This can be done by adding something like this to your
data-sources.xml:



The above example is for a SQL Server data source using i-net driver.
Remeber to change the connection-driver, username, password and url.

2. Now, the following step will add the pooled version. Add the following
lines to data-sources.xml.



Note that the source-location should correspond to location in the 1st step.
"max-connections" can be changed to suit your requirements. I'm not sure
whether url and connection-driver are required here.

The above steps should work for any JDBC drivers. If your driver vendor
supplies a data source, step 1 will be little bit different. Also, some of
the driver vendors directly provide pooled data source implementation in
which case 2 steps are not needed. I could successfully use i-net OPTA
PooledDataSource with Orion.

Ah yes, the infamous orion obfuscation technique, which,
coupled with ignorance, has been known to be downright dangerous!

I actually ran a foreach over all the jars in the orion directory
searching for ConnectionDataSource, and never found it.  Pretty
weird.

Anyway, I sure hope the lack of 'env' is all that's wrong... should
I see an 'env' JNDI Context when listing 'java:comp'?  And
a 'jdbc' Context when listing 'java:comp/env'?  I tried
both of those things today... I'm only fishing for ideas
because from home I can't access the machine with the test
stuff on it...

Thanks!

Re: 1.3.8 on NT causing Dr. Watson (Linux threads)

[Sam Whedbee]

The PS command in linux is unusual because it lists each native thread
of a process as if it were a separate processes.  If you look at the
memory size of all these seemingly different "processes", you'll notice
they are all exactly the same size.  Also if you kill any one of the
"processes" they all go away.

This is actually kind of useful because you can easily check for thread
starvation in your multi threaded app.  Just run "top", while you are
testing.  It's pretty easy to "goof up" and have a large critical
section or a "hot lock" that leads to contention and thread starvation.

RE: WinNT 4, SP5/6 and Orion consistently crashing..

I think the problem is the remote accessing of the server that its running
on. It appeared to run ok for a while, but whenever we logged in to it using
our remote access software, it caused a problem.

Re: Oracle pooled connections?

[Nick Newman]

Hi Gary,

The JNDI name should be "java:comp/env/jdbc/OracleEJBDS" - you missed the
"env".

Odd thing about the com.evermind.sql.ConnectionDataSource class.  I assumed
it would be in the orion.jar, but I don't see it there.  Perhaps something
to do with the obfuscation technique that they use?

Oracle pooled connections?

[Gary Shea]

I have set up the data-sources.xml file using Oracle, following the
advice of Magnus R. at orion, the result looks like:


http://www.orionserver.com/dtds/data-sources.dtd">





With this data-sources file I don't even have a java:comp/jdbc
Context, much less the right entries.  I am unable to verify
that a class named ConnectionDataSource even exists.

Magnus said to use the jdbc/OracleEJBDS source for connections,
claiming they would be automatically pooled.  So far I'm not
getting anywhere!

Ideas?

Hi Luciano:
I could fix the 403 Forbidden problem!!! It's easy:

In the WEB.XML file you must do anything like this:



MySecurity
/servlet/MainMenu
*


users



I I had forgotten to put:

users

and then no Role cuold have access.

Remember that in the WEB.XML we need to map the "users"  Role:



users
  

I hope this help you.

RE: MySQL Identity Columns

[Jesse Schoch]

I have used it in the past, it works fine for me but you have to be aware
that it is per Db session and if you are using connection pooling you may
get the wrong last statement.  I solved the problem by putting my id into a
bean, and then using that as for the where for my updates.

Statement get_last_insert = con.createStatement();
String q = "select last_insert_id();"
ResultSet rs = con.executeQuery(q);

documentation says that you have to cast the bespoke
statement/preparedstatement to a java.sql statement/preparedstatement?
Every time I get a ClassCastException?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Orion logging..is it a performance hit?

[Duffey, Kevin]

I am curious..I look in the .log file created by each web-app and I see a
timestamp for every hit (each jsp page, gif, etc). I am wondering if this is
a performance hit..writing this info out on a regular basis (or is it
buffered and written when the server shuts down?). Also, is there a way to
turn it off if I don't much care for the hits. Finally..is there any way it
can be formatted so when opening it with WordPad or something it shows up
line by line, instead of without line breaks?

Thanks.

RE: WinNT 4, SP5/6 and Orion consistently crashing..

[Duffey, Kevin]

Interesting. I am running Orin on Win2K and JDK 1.3 pretty fine now. Been
1.5 days solid with only a few connection leaks occurring (using our own
connection pool class). Other than that..everything seems fine. I assume SP6
had some bugs in it or something.

Re: Client application

Thanks for your response Robert. You were right about the typo. It really
was in my email. The path that I use is
;\orion\orion.jar;\orion\ejb.jar;\orion\jdbc.jar;\orion\jndi.jar;\orion\mai
l.jar;orion-primer-client.jar


Since this email I have gotten the client to run, now I get the following
error:

Unable to get initial JNDI context: javax.naming.NamingException: Error

I followed your example and deployed the orion-primer application. I copied

Orion server logging clock broken

[Warren Van der Woude]

The log writer of Orion with the configuration:



keeps on getting stuck at a miscellaneous point - sometimes just after
a restart, sometimes after the server has been running for a few
hours/days.
It then records the same time for all incoming requests.

The only thing that seems to fix this is to restart orion.

When the clock gets stuck. the server also does not split its log files,
since
it thinks that it is still the same day.

I have upgraded to the latest version of Orion without any luck.

Thanks

DB2 CMP

[Russ White]

 I have CMP entity beans that can store null fields. I use DB2 and the DB2 jdbc
driver does not allow setNull(FLOAT) on FLOAT fields, but it does allow
setObject(null) on a FLOAT field. Which way does Orion do this? Is it
configurable? Can I implement my own JDBC accessor class for CMP?

I am seriously considering Orion to deploy my beans, but I want to be sure that
these beans can be made to work.

Thanks!

BTW: What I have seen so far of Orion just rocks! Thanks for a slick product!

Re: Run Orion as a daemon in Linux

[KirkYarina]

This works for us; it goes in /etc/rc.d/init.d/orion, with the usual links 
to rc.X.  We're using a script in the orion directory for convenience, and 
we haven't sorted out running Orion as something other than root, both of 
which are security holes.

This isn't adequate for Internet accessible production, but works for our 
development machine.  Blackdown's not the speediest JVM ever, either...

BTW, has anyone tried to run Orion chrooted?  Did you get it to work?

RE: Client application Please Help

Title: RE: Client application Please Help





The correct lookup is "java:comp/env/TeamBean". I assume you're running you're client
outside of Orion? Make sure your provider_url JNDI prop points to
"ormi://localhost/" where  is the name of the TeamBean app in
server.xml.

I bet you'll have to change ic.lookup("TeamBean") in to 
ic.lookup("comp:/java/env/TeamBean"), a bit depending on what's defined in 
your *.xml files.


These files define the name under which the bean gets registered. 
"comp:/java/env/" is a fixed? prefix.

no, it's outdated. as you have assumed data-sources are specified at the 
application level (see dtd for orion-application.xml) + you have the option 
to put the datasources you want to have "globally" in the 
global-application.xml. so you have all the flexibility you need. the only 
thing i would like to have additionally is the ability to map a "local" 
datasource name to a "global" datasource so I'd have all the stuff related 
to the local database installation in one place but still have the ability 
to define application-local datasources.

RE: HTTP Tunneling

[Frank Eggink]

I'm not really into details on plain rmi, but as far as my understanding of 
things go ?all? appserver-vendors supply their own protocol. For orion it 
is ormi. My bet is that http tunneling included in the orion package works 
for ormi and orion only.

Re: Client application

Frank,
I followed your example and deployed the orion-primer application. I copied
the necessary JAR's into my directory along with the jndi.properties file. I
also copied the orion-primer-client.jar into my directory. I then ran the
following

java -classpath .:orion.jar:ejb.jar:jndi.jar:orion-primer-clinet.jar
hello.client.HelloClient

I got the following error:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
hello/client/HelloClient

Any idea?

JSP Question

[Magnus Nilsson]

Hi,

Is it possible to create a JSP custom tag and package
the same class under different names in the tld description
and from inside the tag class determine the name that
was used to invoke it. Some kind of implicit parameter
passing.

Example:


  A
  X
  empty


  B
  X
  empty


  C
  X
  empty


public class X extends TagSupport
{
  public int doStartTag()
throws JspException
  {
// Get the name of the tag that
// that was used to invoke the call: A, B or C
String name = ...;
};

I see from the spec. that the info is available
in the class TagInfo, but I can't see how I can
get hold of an instance (if possible).

Regards
/Magnus

Server.xml and datasources

[Magnus Nilsson]

In the new Orion documentation it says:

"The server.xml file also contains references
to the other configuration files.
Specifically, in the server.xml you specify

- Where the data-source configuration is located"

Line 596 in http://www.orionserver.com/docs/index.html

Is this correct?

I can't find any references in the actual DTD or the tag description
of server.xml that you can specify where to look for data sources.

More to the point: Can I have a local data-sources.xml for each
enterprise application that I deploy?

/Magnus

Re: Client application Please Help

[Luis M Bernardo]

do you have the jndi.properties file in the classpath? if you just create
an initial context by calling the no argument constructor you need to
include that file in the classpath.

LegalEntityBean.java:843 says - 
  Connection newConn =

The call goes through, but the console has this exception on it.  What does that mean?

RE: Run Orion as a daemon in Linux

[Frank Eggink]

Check 'man nohup'. A line like 'nohup (cd ; java -jar orion.jar) 
&' in a file called /etc/rc.d/boot.local will do the trick, a bit quick and 
sirty though.

In the /etc/rc.d directory you'll find a lot of startup scripts to start an 
stop services. To integrate it even better in your system-administration 
you can copy one of those scripts and create one special for orion (i 
haven't created one yet). In that case you can setup your system for 
instance only to run orion when the system runs in network mode (e.g. init 
level 2 or 3 for SuSE).

RE: WinNT 4, SP5/6 and Orion consistently crashing..

[Robert Hargreaves]

Kevin,

We had regular (once a day) Dr Watsons when using Orion 1.2.9 on SP6 and
JDK1.2.2. We switched to JDK1.3 a couple of weeks ago and the problem has
gone away.

Regards,
Rob Hargreaves

Hi all,

I am not sure why..but it appears that Orion 1.2.9 (and 1.3.7) crashes
whenever we "remote" into our server to do some work on it. We have NT4 with
SP5 on one machine, and SP6 on another. I have Orion using run_as_service to
put it in as a service. Even when I run it as an application, this happens.
It seems to work fine for a while, then it crashes. I know our code is bad,
but it seems to me with only 4 people using the thing for testing, it should
be fine. Has anyone been experiencing problems with Orion crashing on NT
with SP5 or SP6? Does the remote access do something to the JVM? Its using
JDK 1.2.2-05 JRE.

On the subject..does anyone know of a Win2K program that will put Java apps
as services? The run_as_service doesn't appear to work..keeps giving some
i/o problem.

Thanks.

access MailSession from outside the orion server

[aloe_vera]

I have created a stand-alone admin component outside the orion server, which use the 
MailerEJB functions to send emails. An exception will be thrown in MailHelper when I 
start running the stand-alone admin program, which is "java:com\env\mail\MailSession 
not found".
here is  tag in ejb-jar.xml and web.xml

mail/MailSession
javax.mail.Session


and here is  tag in server.xml






Is anything missed? Kindly please reply this message.
