Re: Tag library TEI difference

2001-06-06 Thread Marcel Schutte

On the orionserver homepage it says jsp1.1 support, not jsp1.2. Also, packed
in orion.jar is the dtd for the 1.1 version of .tld's. So orion support jsp
1.1

Perhaps you also did, but I looked it up in the specifications.

jsp1.1 actually has an error in the javadoc for VariableInfo, since it
repeats the description for the 'varName' attribute under the 'className'.
Not very helpful. The specification only has an example in b.3.4.1 showing
unqualified classnames FooResult and BarResult. This suggest what is made
explicit in the next specification version:

In jsp1.2 pfd2 the specification clearly states that an unqualified
classname may be used if it is 'a public class in the context of the import
directives of the page where the custom action appears'. Since you never
have to import java.lang.* this should be true and so your tei class should
work in a jsp1.2 container.

You might file it as a bug and see what their reaction is. Again, I would
say that even a jsp1.1 container should accept unqualified classnames.

Subject: Tag library TEI difference


 I have a small tag library application which I have successfully
 deployed on Jrun and Tomcat.  The tei class describes a field like this:

   public VariableInfo[] getVariableInfo(TagData data) {
  return new VariableInfo []
 {
new VariableInfo(eCTSResult,
 String,
 true,
 VariableInfo.NESTED),
new VariableInfo(EndMsg,
 String,
 true,
 VariableInfo.NESTED),
new VariableInfo(ReturnMsg,
 String,
 true,
 VariableInfo.NESTED)
 };
   }

 When this app is deployed on orion I get the error:
 Bean 'String' not found.

 In order to make this work I had to change  String to
 java.lang.String

 I've also noticed some pretty inconsistent results using
 auto-redeployment.  It works sometimes, an other times it takes an error
 opening the ear file.  In these cases I have to recycle the server.

 I've run into the same problem.  I don't think there is any way around
this,
 since the Apache module is a simple proxy.
 It would be necessary to improve the Apache plugin to send some extra
 headers, and then have orion interpret them.
 However without an open API through which to construct the HTTP requests
 coming into orion, you would have to interpret these headers in your own
 code.

 One possible avanue is Orion's load balancer.  I haven't had a chance to
 test it, but does it suffer from the same problem?
 It may already have an API that allows it to pass through the original IP
 address (and other info) to the actual server, which could be emulated by
a
 web server plugin.

Hi!

I need to save a file to disk from EJBCreate() in an entity bean.
What is the best way? I read that Weblogic allows you to violate the EJB 
specification and use a FileOutputStream. Does Orion let me do this as well?

Subject: RE: how to run jsps and servlet on orion?



Hey Hasan, I've just put together a sample application that's has it all
with servlets, jsp, and ejb.

To start you want to make a root directory for your site; c:\site
Then you can put jsp's right in that root directory; c:\site\Login.jsp (will
be http://localhost/Login.jsp)
Now create a directory c:\site\Web-inf, that's where you put web.xml witch
defines your servlets and their URL mappings.
Servlets (and web beans) go in c:\site\Web-Inf\classes\
So if you had a servlet called your.package.LoginServlet it would be in
c:\site\Web-Inf\classes\your\package\LoginServlet
Now your ready to serve the files by changing this tag in application.xml
web-module id=TestSite path=../../site/ / (it complains if you specify
a drive like c:)

That's all you need to do to serve web app, but if you want to package the
site into a .war file you change the path in the application to the .war
file.
To make c:\site into the .war you enter this; jar -cvf site.war *.jsp
WEB-INF/web.xml WEB-INF/classes/your/package/*.class

EJBs are a bit more complex to deploy.  To start put the 3 ejb files in the
same location as the servlets,
c:\site\Web-inf\classes\your\package\EJBHome,Remote etc...
Now make a directory c:\site\Web-inf\META-INF\, that's where you put
ejb-jar.xml and application.xml
Then when you have finished and compiled the ejb enter this command to make
package the bean; jar -cvf LoginBean.jar META-INF/ejb-jar.xml
your/package/*.class
Now you package the bean into an application; jar -cvf LoginApplication.ear
LoginBean.jar META-INF/application.xml
Then put the .ear file into the application directory in Orion, and add the
line application name=LoginApplication
path=../applications/LoginApplication.ear/ which binds the application.

I have included the config files, the application files, and the source.  If
you get any problems deploy, replace the config files, and put the package
files in orion\applications.

Have fun with that!
Let me know how you go and if you have any questions.

 Well,

 I have some partially good news: There is a way around that using
 Apache. I'm also using it as a proxy, to concentrate all the services on
 the standard HTTP port while keeping different Orion instances running,
 and as some of our security requirements take into account the IP from
 the client, so  I run onto the same problem. I queried the mod_proxy
 list and I got a patch that includes, as an extra HTTP header, the
 client original IP. This solves the problem for our own custom
 authentication, as we check first if this header is available or not, if
 it is, then we check the IP agains this value.
 The problem here would be if you use some authentication mechanism that
 you cannot modify so it checks for this extra header.
 Here it is, the URL I was given and from where you can download the
 patch: http://develooper.com/code/mpaf/
 I hope this helps,

Problem wit Orion 1.4.5 and PostgreSQL 7.1.1

2001-06-06 Thread Armin Rauch

I have a problem with a specific CMP EJB. It is occuring with only one
of many CMP EJBs in my application and only with PostgreSQL. Oracle is
working fine here and PostgreSQL table is containing all data.
If retrieved with a generated finer method, I get the following error
while accessing the result:
java.lang.NullPointerException

at com.evermind.util.f.run(JAX)

When accessed with the JDBC approach, I have no problems in getting the
data. The funny thing is that this behaviour has a nice pattern:

- Writing the data and reading it works fine
- Stopping and restarting Orion
- First access gives NullPointerException
- Next access retrives rows but all fields are null

Anyone has an idea what's happening here?

Sure, no problem.  You could also just send a JMS message to a queue and

 My workaround is to build an 'ear' and in the root 'META-INF' I put an

 The library path is 'the_unpacked_war/WEB-INF/lib'. But IMHO I think

Access Log Format with Cookies

2001-06-06 Thread Stephen M Hellman

I am in need of formatting our access log files in a
similar vein to the ways Apache does for WebTrends
analysis specifically with regard to recording cookie
information.
In Apache, I would add the tag, \%{Cookie}i\ , to
the LogFormat for use with a CustomLog directive.

In Orion, I know that in the web-site.xml file, I can
add the directive
$cookie:CookieID1
to the access-log format to write a single cookie
value to the access log.

Unfortunately, this does not satisfy WebTrends needs. 
I need a cookie directive for the access log format
that displays all the cookies as key-value pairs (ie.
CookieID1=CookieValue1) similar to Apache, which also
displays a - when no cookies are found.  
Our access-log format as been
format=$ip - - [$time] quot;$requestquot; $status
$size quot;$refererquot;
 quot;$agentquot;
quot;COOKIE_ID1=$cookie:COOKIE_ID1quot;

Hardcoding the COOKIE_ID1= in the access log format
is no longer a viable option.

Does anyone know the access log directive I am looking
for or where I can find it or if it exists?

There is no way to get a listing of all cookies in your log. You will have

There are actually two more format vars available:

message I got either within JDeveloper or Orion. I
have noticed some of you had already encountered this
problem, and I am not sure if it was resolved by now
(1.5.2)

Thanks,
Mustafa

NEWBIE: Default HTTP Content-Type

2001-06-06 Thread Norbert Papke

I have just started to play around with the Orion server and am very
impressed by it.  Installation and configuration was a snap, performance
and footprint are great.  I have, however, noticed one ideosyncracy that I
hope somebody will be able to help me with.

I have some text files on my site that are part of a knowledge base.
These files contain only ASCII characters, the excute permissions are not
set, and the files do not have an extension.  The Orion server delivers
these files with an HTTP content type set to application/octet-stream.
Apache delivers these same files with a content type of text/plain.  The
latter is preferable to me as it allows browsers to render the files.  Is
there any way to change the content type that Orion uses to deliver these
files?

Please note that changing the files (either by converting them to html or
adding a file extension) is not really an option.

Best regard,

-- Norbert Papke.

RE: Serious problem with Orion transaction processing: multiple c onnecti

2001-06-06 Thread Eduardo Estefano


For now, we have solved our blocking problems by turning off some foreign
keys. This is ok, but we would like to put them back in the database. The
good thing is that I know orion is considering both calls part of the same
transaction because if I set the context to rollbackOnly it will rollback
both statements. But they do block each other if we have the foreign key:

Statement 1: Via JDBC: lookup(jdbc/CitySolutionsDS) and use the connection
to delete child
Statement 2: findByPrimaryKey and call bean.remove()

My Session bean is declared with the following resource for the datasource

resource-ref
res-ref-namejdbc/CitySolutionsDS/res-ref-name
res-typejavax.sql.DataSource/res-type
res-authContainer/res-auth
/resource-ref

The entity bean uses jdbc/CitySolutionsDS for the datasource (declared in
orion-ejb-jar.xml)

And the datasource is declared as:

data-source
class=com.evermind.sql.ConnectionDataSource
name=CitySolutionsDataSource
location=jdbc/CitySolutionsCoreDS
ejb-location=jdbc/CitySolutionsDS
xa-location=jdbc/xa/CitySolutionsXADS
connection-driver=oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
username=CITYSOLUTIONS
password=none
url=jdbc:oracle:thin:@172.16.66.151:1521:ORCL
inactivity-timeout=120
max-connections=10
min-connections=5
/

Is there something wrong (or not good) in this declaration?

Thanks

Eduardo

I just read about Orion being used as the base

deal? Specifically I wanted to know what version of Orion they are 
using, and if there would be any benefit to future versions of Orion.

What I am interested in is what are the future implications for Orion?
We are about to purchase a license for Orion, but if development on Orion
isn't going to be the main focus, where does that leave customers?

I've been told Oracle's oc4j is orion 1.5.0.  And I've also been told that
it's
confidental as to how/when/if ironflare will continue to push newer builds
of
orion to Oracle or what.

Re: Oracle deal

2001-06-06 Thread Jay Armstrong

Some of you may recall that, back in April, for about a week, we had a
heated, sometimes humorous discussion with the subject A Swedish Idea
(for Ironflare to call their fellow Swedes at MySQL).  Someone made the
comment: 
**
...they (Magnus and Karl) are just 2 guys, who wanna code (translation:
they are in java guy heaven!) and have no interest in the complexities and
distractions inherent in 'Big International Business^TM' (Trademark,
Microsoft and the World Intellectual Property Organization, all rights
reserved, ALL YOUR THOUGHTS ARE BELONG TO US!^TM).  'Chap' and Magnus are
geeks.  They are in Java geek heaven.  THIS IS A GOOD THING!  We should not
be distracting them with anything other than their continuing to code the
best damn Java appserver there is!  Anything else is a waste of time.  
**

Some may also recall that my reply was as follows:
**
They're big boys -- and business-savy enough to come down from geek heaven
and actually charge money for production.  I'll bet they can even decide
for themselves whether or not to speak with MySQL.  If they've gotten 1,000
Orion customers to belly-up $1,500 each, then a mill-and-a-half should
cover the phone call to MySQL.
**

Excuse me, but I'd like to say, I TOLD YOU SO!!!  I like Orion, but while
we've been asking, Any news from Orion yet?? (Jan 13, 2001), and
functioning as free testers, they've been working on the version for
Oracle.  Why pay for the cow when you can get the milk for free?  That's
why they rarely answer our questions directly anymore.

Now, I'm not complaining, because I like Orion and I will continue to use
it.  Ironflare has never said they were in it just as an academic exercise.
 I admire the way they've managed to build a decent product without having
to hire testers.  If Oracle is smart, they'll look for those of us who have
helped find Orion's bugs (Magnus and Karl, are you listening?) and have
experience with it.

But, as I said before, they're not just Java guys in geek heaven -- they
are clearly in it for the money, too.

RE: Oracle deal

2001-06-06 Thread Mike Cannon-Brookes

I'm fairly sure it's Orion 1.5.1 but anyone with an Oracle license can
download it and check for us by running java -jar orion.jar -version (yes,
it is still called orion.jar ;))

Also see
http://technet.oracle.com:89/cgi-bin/forumdisplay.cgi?action=topicsforum=Or
acle9iAS+J2EEnumber=99 (may wrap) for discussion about OC4J/Orion.

I'd imagine that the deal will help current Orion users by providing greater
visibility / enterprise usage of the software, as well as Oracle
contributing back bug fixes etc which will no doubt be rolled into the
general code base. Whether it helps documentation or not is to be seen.

RE: Oracle deal

2001-06-06 Thread Mike Cannon-Brookes

It leaves customers in the same position they were in before. Orion still
sells an app server, and a damned good one at that. The Oracle app server is
the same (now) but only comes bundled with a $50,000+ database - so they're
in slightly different price brackets.
