Re: JMS orion
I have a project to do which depends heavily on message driven beans. It also needs to be as high performance as possible, as we are expecting a lot of traffic. I had planned on using the IBM JDK for this, but apparently it may have some problems with MDB. The application needs only subscribe to a remote topic and process the messages. Is this a problem? What issues have been seen with orion and JMS? All issues may be related to RH7.1/JDK combination. If you don't use RH7.1 use may not have any problems at all. Armin Michel

Need original IP information with Loadbalancing
ok, after reading the lists it is becoming apparent that the Orion loadbalancer is not the best thing to be using. Mainly because i need the clients ip address for a form of authentication, and the loadbalancer.jar wont give it to my orions back ends. Therefore, can anyone suggest a resaonably priced hardware/software load balancer which i could use for my Orion clustering. Any reviews anywhere of load balancers? I would prefer suggestions/something which is straight forward rather than hacking things like Apache. Cheers Darren

Re: Aaarrrghhh!! CSS and Servlet again
Hi John, I see why you are doing that but I don't agree it is a good way to go, at least for me. It looks like you are a corporate developer who builds for an intranet that would benefit from the context paths. But, for me (internet development - each site unique), it works out better for the whole team when the dev (and qa) server is setup with virtual hosts (? I am not a sys admin, so...): Dev server dev-site1.workingdomain.com dev-site2.workingdomain.com QA server qa-site1.workingdomain.com qa-site2.workingdomain.com Live server(s) www.site1.com www.site2.com This way everyone is working (and qa'ing) out of the same environment as it will be when live. As for my personal development, I do work on local machines at home (not the dev box) whenever possible. We keep everything in sync with CVS. I also have the 5 static IPs and keep a machine/static IP for each project. It is easier for me (and everyone else on the team) to work without the context path. I do see the context path as a problem in these containers especially when working on large projects/groups with a variety of skills and needs. I feel it is better to keep the same environment through the site promotion process. of course there are other ways to do it... Thanks for the discussion, Rob - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Orion-Interest [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 21, 2001 3:34 PM Subject: Re: Aaarrrghhh!! CSS and Servlet again In a typical web application server, there can be applications deployed to several contexts within the container. Each context is differentiated using a URL prefix, e.g.: http://myhost/webstore http://myhost/benefits-admin Webstore and benefits-admin represent different Servlet contexts which are different applications served out of the same container. In most cases, these applications won't share resources, so the css files for the webstore application will be somewhere below the document root for webstore, and the css files for benefits-admin will be under it's document root, e.g.: /deploy/webapps/webstore/styles/main.css /deploy/webapps/benefits-admin/styles/main.css When you refer to the main.css file for the webstore app, it's URI is http://myhost/webstore/styles/main.css, or shortened to /webstore/styles/main.css. For benefits-admin, it's /benefits-admin/styles/main.css. The prefix part (/webstore, or /benefits-admin) is the context path and it is defined in your application deployment descriptor. This can be changed during deployment, so you don't want it hard coded in your HTML, JSP, or Servlets. It is possible to use relative paths to get to the URI, for example a servlet whose URL is /webstore/servlet/MyServlet can refer to the css file as ../styles/main.css, however that means that if you map a different URL to your servlet, the relative URL won't work anymore. Also, take an example of a JSP found at /webstore/cart.jsp. The relative URL of styles/main.css would work, but what happens if the cart.jsp is redirected to from a servlet using a RequestDispatcher? The browser thinks the URL is /webstore/servlet/DirectorServlet, so the relative URL breaks! Explicity referring to the context path and appending the absolute path to the resource within the deployed web application ensures that the reference will always work, so long as the resource is in the location specified by the absolute path. Obviously this is all irrelevant if you only have one context in your application server and it is deployed to the web site root. John H.

RE: Classpath and library path ERROR ??? -- PLEASE again ???
I am not sure this will help but here it goes. My problem was were to put classes shared by my web app and my ejbs. I wanted to jar them up and put them some where. I asked around and got various responses. The response I found most useful was to put the classes in the ejb.jar file. So, if you have a jar file with classes you want to use, you need to extract them some where. Then, when you build your ejb jar include them. The reason to do this is that Orion's ejb classloader will make these classes visible to your web app. I was also told that WebLogic's classloader behaves the same way. This seems like a clumsy solution but when you want to just distribute an ear file, this looks pretty good. And it works for me. Good Luck!

this tag works for me: library path=lib / then, everything in the lib directory is picked up, if it is a class or jar. The key bit is from where? if your ear build structure looks like this: /META-INF /mywar.war /myejbs.jar /lib /lib/com/somepackage/some.class The lib directory referred to in the library ... / tag is the same as the lib directory in the ear. You don't have to worry that people can navigate to this directory, because there is no web-app called lib in your files. We used this to put our own usermanager code in, and it worked fine.

Which orion-application.xml are you editing? The one in applications/yourapplication/META-INF or the one in application-deployments/yourapplication? I was having the same problem. I was modifying the applications/myapplication/META-INF/orion-application.xml but it wasn't copied to the application-deployments directory automaticaly, so I erased everything in the application-deployments directory to force Orion to redoploy the whole app. I also had to copy the application-deployments/myapplication/principals.xml to applications/myapplication/META-INF before deleting the mentioned directory or Orion would complain. After this, it worked. The problem is that it is Orion specific. I haven't found a J2EE standard way to share classes between modules. I tested this only in Windows though. Good luck.

Re: having prolems with CMP, PostgreSQL, and Serializable
Your problem is stemming from the fact that the Postgresql JDBC driver wants auto commit flag set to false before it can use setBinaryStream() method which is used to store the stream. Orion's entity bean wrapper seems to leave the flag alone and not set it to false explicitly. So, basicly, that's what causes it... but the proper solution to workaround or fix it is still something I'm playing around with. - Phillip --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I am trying to port an application that was running on JBOSS to orion.

Re: Aaarrrghhh!! CSS and Servlet again
The thing is, the specification you are working to defines the context path as a deployment decision. It is simply coincedence that the context path in all of your deployments is the same (root). Even in your situation, you should prefix ANY hard coded URLs with getContextPath, because that protects you. It is not a thing that ever fails, it will always work, and it will always protect you from different deployment issues. What happens it your www.site1.com decides to deploy the application as www.site1.com/app1...? The context path is set in the deployment descriptor, not in the code. You really should make your code independent of the deployment descriptor even if it just happens to be that your current deployment descriptors match your code. John H.

CSS and Servlet again Hi John, I see why you are doing that but I don't agree it is a good way to go, at least for me. It looks like you are a corporate developer who builds for an intranet that would benefit from the context paths. But, for me (internet development - each site unique), it works out better for the whole team when the dev (and qa) server is setup with virtual hosts (? I am not a sys admin, so...): Dev server dev-site1.workingdomain.com dev-site2.workingdomain.com QA server qa-site1.workingdomain.com qa-site2.workingdomain.com Live server(s) www.site1.com www.site2.com This way everyone is working (and qa'ing) out of the same environment as it will be when live. As for my personal development, I do work on local machines at home (not the dev box) whenever possible. We keep everything in sync with CVS. I also have the 5 static IPs and keep a machine/static IP for each project. It is easier for me (and everyone else on the team) to work without the context path. I do see the context path as a problem in these containers especially when working on large projects/groups with a variety of skills and needs. I feel it is better to keep the same environment through the site promotion process. of course there are other ways to do it...

CSS and Servlet again In a typical web application server, there can be applications deployed to several contexts within the container. Each context is differentiated using a URL prefix, e.g.: http://myhost/webstore http://myhost/benefits-admin Webstore and benefits-admin represent different Servlet contexts which are different applications served out of the same container. In most cases, these applications won't share resources, so the css files for the webstore application will be somewhere below the document root for webstore, and the css files for benefits-admin will be under it's document root, e.g.: /deploy/webapps/webstore/styles/main.css /deploy/webapps/benefits-admin/styles/main.css When you refer to the main.css file for the webstore app, it's URI is http://myhost/webstore/styles/main.css, or shortened to /webstore/styles/main.css. For benefits-admin, it's /benefits-admin/styles/main.css. The prefix part (/webstore, or /benefits-admin) is the context path and it is defined in your application deployment descriptor. This can be changed during deployment, so you don't want it hard coded in your HTML, JSP, or Servlets. It is possible to use relative paths to get to the URI, for example a servlet whose URL is /webstore/servlet/MyServlet can refer to the css file as ../styles/main.css, however that means that if you map a different URL to your servlet, the relative URL won't work anymore. Also, take an example of a JSP found at /webstore/cart.jsp. The relative URL of styles/main.css would work, but what happens if the cart.jsp is redirected to from a servlet using a RequestDispatcher? The browser thinks the URL is /webstore/servlet/DirectorServlet, so the relative URL breaks! Explicity referring to the context path and appending the absolute path to the resource within the deployed web application ensures that the reference will always work, so long as the resource is in the location specified by the absolute path. Obviously this is all irrelevant if you only have one context in your application server and it is deployed to the web site root. John H.

Re: Aaarrrghhh!! CSS and Servlet again
What happens it your www.site1.com decides to deploy the application as www.site1.com/app1...? The context path is set in the deployment descriptor, not in the code. You really should make your code independent of the deployment descriptor even if it just happens to be that your current deployment descriptors match your code. It is an upfront decision to go with a root-relative site (and site promotion process), like going with java as opposed to the many other technologies (what would happen if your site decides to use C on the backend?). It is something that needs to be agreed upon early for a large, multi-faceted site. Our sites are mostly built with XSL/XML ( perhaps 1 to 4 XSL guys working on a site at a time) and currently they are mostly separate from any backend processes (maybe 75% pregenerated to html). If I were to implement what you are talking about: (- there would need to be some way to dynamically generate the previously pre-generated pages, or - pre-generate on and with each particular machine's context, ) and - pass the approriate variable parameters to the XSL This could defeat the promotion process. Currently we are assured that what is seen on qa is what will be on live. The only variable in the promotion process between qa and live is the cost/type of machine. Since there are several resources (human and not) involved it is better to set the site structure early. It really clears things up for all invloved and allows for a clean separation from others.
