RE: Can't start Orion 1.5.1
Ciao Marcello :) It appears that you still have the old JAXP1.0 XML processor in the classpath. Check program files (win32) or whatever on linux for /Jaxp1.0.1. In particular, the old parser.jar and jaxp.jar. Once you take those out of the classpath, orion should start fine. If you're actually parsing XML in your web app, then take a look at what has changed at: http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxp-1.1/readme.html Hope this helps. -arnox -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, May 24, 2001 5:20 PM To: Orion-Interest Subject: Can't start Orion 1.5.1 Hello, I downloaded Orion 1.4.5 and it works fine out of the box.

Rephrasing persistence question... HELP
Would anybody dare to guess (or knows!) what criteria is used by Orion to determine what objects in a JSP page are saved when application shuts down? I have a few different objects in a JSP page. They all implement Serializable, but serialization is called only on one type. Why would it not get called on all of them? Consider these two objects both of which would implement Serializable: SomeClass A=new SomeClass (); SomeOtherClassB=new SomeOtherClass(); When you restart/shutdown the app, JSP page will call serialization on object B, but not A. Is it me, or is there a logical explanation for this? Thanks, -arnox P.S. This used to work in version 1.4.5 (all would get saved), but works as described in 1.5.1.
interesting singleton serialization issue (Java / JSP POSSIBLY ORION QUESTION)
ASSUMPTION: It appear that all objects in a JSP file get serialized. Q1: Is there an equivalent of TRANSIENT in JSP, ..since transient doesn't work? Q2: Is there any other way to control serialization? NOTE: I have the singleton class working nicely with a factory class. The problem is that I need a reference to the singleton in the JSP file, ..so it gets serialized twice (ONCE FROM BY THE FACTORY - ONCE BECAUSE IT'S IN JSP FILE, ..NOT SO GOOD). Current fix includes taking the implements Externalizable away from the singleton, but leaving the read/writeExternal functions in the class, so the factory can call them. The only problem is that JSP/Orion reports that the object is not Serializable, ..but in reality the object gets serialized elsewhere (not a bug, just looks wrong). Any suggestions? Thanks, -arnox

RE: Win2k Pro. is mess... choosing the right database product
It could be that Interbase is a very recent addition to the open source / freeware bunch. Also, prior to version 6, Interbase was missing some essential data types, which made it a bit less approchable. My company is still evaluating Interbase, but so far we haven't found any "issues" and are extremely pleased with the JDBC driver and the performance/features of this product. There appears to be an issue setting different character sets for the JDBC driver in data-sources.xml, but that is probably true for all JDBC drivers and setting their extended parameters (it could be a problem with Orion) and it's not a show stopper for us. At some point in time, we were also evaluating mySQL, but (AT THE TIME) it had no transaction support, JDBC drivers were in flux and no blobs. Personally, I believe that InterBase 6 offers more features then mySQL. Another FREE option appears to come from SAP (http://www.sap.com/solutions/technology/sapdb/) I know nothing about this product, but it comes with a type 4 JDBC driver and a bunch of tools. It would be nice to hear from somebody who know more about it. -arno -Original Message-From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Randahl Fink IsaksenSent: Friday, February 23, 2001 6:27 PMTo: Orion-InterestSubject: RE: Win2k Pro. is mess... choosing the right database product You are probably right in your asumptions.

Yes, we came to the near conclusion that it was not orion but it was postgresql. To tell the truth, I believe in orionbut not very much so in postgresql. As a matter of fact, we are using a CVS version of PostgreSQL because the released version of postgresql does not yet support the right join sql statement. To make matters worse, the Linux JDBC driver was not working properly on the timestamp field before I made a modification on the driver. We were totally forgetting all about this. Our Windows developershave had no problems with ODBC drivers so far, out of which we can guess it is not the DB itself but it is the Linux JDBC driver. What are your thoughts? Once again, thank you very much. Simon - Original Message - From: Randahl Fink Isaksen To: Orion-Interest Sent: Friday, February 23, 2001 1:07 AM Subject: RE: Win2k Pro. is messing up the DB I know this is a wild guess, but just to make sure, I would of course do a disk scan on that machine to make sure it is not a hardware problem - these things do happen, I am afraid. Another good thing would be to run the application on a _different_ Win2K Pro. machine to make sure it is not just something which is specific to only her single machine. BTW, I would doubt PostgreSQL more on Win2K than I would doubt Orion. Orion is a java application, which gives it a pretty good chance of running in the same way on different platforms. To the best of my knowledge PostgreSQL on Win2K is a port of the code from another platform, and from reading articles at PostgreSQL's web-site it seems it is not totally stable on Win2K. I have seen at least two posts on this list where people recommends *not* using PostgreSQL from Win NT based systems - not yet, anyway. I have used Orion on Win2K with no problems - but then again I do *not* use PostgreSQL Hope you find a solution Yours Randahl -Original Message-From: [EMAIL

You should be able to find it at www.borland.com/interbase, but there are nicer distributions out there (no need to fill out any questionnaires and get spammed by Borland). Unfortunately, I don't remember the links... (somebody may want to post these). A very helpful starting point is: http://www.ibphoenix.com/ibp_contrib_download.html just make sure you don't download any PRE-6.x stuff. Make sure you copy the InterClient JARs to orion\lib (these are interclient.jar, interclient-core.jar, interclient-res.jar, interclient-utils.jar and I believe RmiJdbc.jar). After looking into other JDBC drivers and problems that people were experiencing, I stuck with Borland's JDBC driver. They work fine. As a side note, you should be aware that Interbase uses triggers, so things like AutoNumbers need to be created (you can create you own types!). If you don't want to mess with that, you can use MS Access to design tables, and then use a utility like SQLtoGDB, to transfer the database schema. It is a bit rough, but it can save some time. Also, stick with UPPERCASE table and column names. IB6 can use mixed case, but then you'll have to enclose field names in quotes which severely limits your code portability and makes for some strange looking SQL strings.
