Re: FW: Bean to remote bean communication... (2nd try)
You should use RMIInitialContextFactory. ApplicationClientInitialContextFactory is only for application clients. Also - you cannot look up java:comp/env/ from outside the container. Don't bother prepending it. If you are using remote=true for your ejbs, you do not need to look up the remote server yourself - this is done by the container.

Re: classpath problem with ear file
This document is a good overview of classloaders in Orion. http://kb.atlassian.com/content/atlassian/howto/classloaders.jsp What Alex says is basically correct - for classes that need to be accessed by your EJBs - either package them in the same jar, or use manifest classloading. You can optionally use a lib include, but that is not portable across application servers. Cheers, Scott Alex Paransky wrote: Roxanne: I am not quite sure that this was the correct solution. Ideally, you should not have to configure ANY path's in your orion-application.xml file. The .ear is capable of configuring any dependency you wish. In general, if you have classes which are used only by your EJB's you have 2 options: 1. Package them into the same .JAR file as your EJBs 2. Package them into a separate file and use the classpath in the manifest for your EJB.jar To understand why you are having a problem, you need to read a little about how classloaders are used and what is their hierarchy. (Honestly, I don't remember where I found this information). At the base of it all is the system classloader. This is the one which uses CLASSPATH environment to identify location of classes. On top of it is your EJB-ClassLoader for a particular application. On top of the EJB-class loader is a WEB-ClassLoader for every web application you deploy. Thus if you put something into WEB-INF/lib your EJB-ClassLoader will not be able to find it. This is why you are getting this error. Re-evaluate your packaging scheme to avoid ANY library path configuration settings in orion-application.xml I have developed an application which uses .EAR with a number of .WAR's and a number of EJB .JARs without having to configure any additional paths.

The error is thrown immediately after the ejbPassivate is called. This suggests that during passivation the parent record is deleted and recreated.

Re: BMP Entity Bean Performance Problem
Tim,
As I am not sure of the exact nature of your entity beans, I can't give
you any detailed suggestions, but many people impement a 'dirty' flag in
their code.
eg:
void setName(String name)
{
dirty=true;
this.name = name;
}
ejbStore()
{
if (!dirty)
return;
else
{
doUpdate();
dirty=false;
}
}
This limits the number of updates that you are doing.
I assume that you have a very good reason for using BMP, but I would
suggest that you use CMP where possible. The performance benefits are
quite large.
Cheers,
Scott

Re: Integrating LOG4J into Orion...
Further to what Mike has said, I'll just give you a little update on the status of the Log4j 1.2 release. The 1.2 code base is largely different to the 1.1 base, and has features that when finished, will be useful for using in application servers, and make it a lot easier to configure. The features that I talk about are: - Different LogManagers. This will allow Orion to provide a logmanager *per application*, or if it can't find one, use the default logmanager. This means that you will be able to specify a configuration file per application, and not have to manually configure it. - Configuration files will be reloaded The watchers code is being rewritten. When it is finished, you will most likely have code that allows you to configure how often the config files are reloaded (and stop / restart the watcher thread). So what does this mean for you, if you are using log4j in your application now? - Use the 1.2 code. Although in alpha, it is quite stable. - If you have specific requirements (apart from the above two), suggest them on the log4j email list, or email me with your suggestions. Lastly - congratulations on using log4j. Logging is very important in enterprise applications! Cheers, Scott -- Scott Farquhar :: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Atlassian :: http://www.atlassian.com Supporting YOUR J2EE World Mike Cannon-Brookes wrote: This is one possible scenario - but as Jeff says it's server specific logging (not application specific) - which can often be non-optimal. We have a document coming out on this (check http://kb.atlassian.com) soon, but until it's finished here's what we usually do: - use the latest log4j from CVS (which has the capability to define which is the default log loading class - there is now one which loads log4j.xml from classpath, and watches it) - I believe it's done via system properties (selecting automated file loader and watch time) - add a library path=config / to your orion-application.xml for each application - add config/log4j.xml to your application You're done! this means you now have : - automatic log configuration (no more need for servlet listeners, application clients or servlets to configure logging!) - dynamic logging (you can just change the log4j.xml file and your changes are picked up without redeployment) - logging _per application_ (rather than per server) As I said, see if the above directions work for you and please email me off list if they don't (so we can adjust the document in progress).

RMIContextFactory with the next code:
Context context = null;

env.put(java.naming.provider.url, ormi://localhost:rmi

If you don't change the values of rmi.xml in the Orion config you don't
need
specify the rmi port. The applicacion name is the name that appear in
server.xml and identify the application. Is possible that you need
especify
a username and password for connect to applicacion, I don't need it. For
specify these parametrers you need to put the next:
env.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, admin);
env.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, password);

Subject: JDBC error
Has anyone experienced instability when using Orion together with Oracle
9i? I am currently running an Orion 1.5.2 server on a Tru64 platform
against a 9i database using the OCI driver. Everything works fine
initially, but after a few hours of sending HTTP requests to Orion I
find that performance degrades. Eventually, I start getting database
errors. I have seen Oracle go into a state where it returns an SQL
exception:
java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments:
[kksfbc-new-child-thresh-exceeded], [], [], [], [], [], [], []
I have also experienced the OCI driver core dumping when executing the
same test:
OCI-21503: program terminated by fatal error
OCI-04030: out of process memory when trying to allocate 30056 bytes
(Alloc environm,eoj_stmt_malloc)
Obviously, I am running out of resources. The thing I don't understand
is where! I have run Orion setting the JDBC debug parameters
jdbc.connection.debug, datasource.verbose and jdbc.debug to true, and it
seems as though the connections are being created and returned correctly
(no connections leaked).
Has this problem got anything to do with me running it on Tru64? The

Re: design question: one to many relationship
Morten, Putting a collection of games attached to each person suggests a many-to-many relationship. Why don't you have each game have an owner? Game (Id, Owner, Name) Owner (Id, Name) Then you have a one-many relationship.

This creates a many-to-many table with a personid and a gameid. My database design knowledge tells me this is wrong, and that what i need is a foreign key to the person table in the game table. also, i would like to be able to both see what games a person owns, and who owns a certain game. i cant seem to do that without creating redundant data in the database... i would like to think i could make a sensible ejblayer on a sensible database design. So in conclusion: how do i make this one-to-many relationship so i can read it both ways without creating redundant data, and without making a many-to-many table between the person and the game table? hope any of this makes any sense sincerely Morten Wilken
Re: CMP Entity Bean Craziness
Aaron, The idea is that one application may be deployed on many servers, and therefore the deployment descriptor is *per app, per server*. The deployment descriptors are used to customise a deployment on that server. This notion fits in with sun's idea of J2EE roles (ppl who help develop the application.) Read about roles here: http://java.sun.com/j2ee/tutorial/1_3-fcs/doc/Overview5.html#65592 If you had your deployment files working, and then you upgraded the application (ie installed a newer version - perhaps a web-app version of your ejbs) you would not want the deployment descriptors overridden except where they dont exist (for the new parts of the application). If in development you feel that this is a problem - then add another ant target to delete the deployment descriptors from the deployment directory. Cheers, Scott -- Scott Farquhar :: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Atlassian :: http://www.atlassian.com Supporting YOUR J2EE World Aaron Tavistock wrote: Mike - Since this is a generated file in a deployment directory shouldn't it always be overwritten if there is a change in one of the package deployment descriptors? The only reason it would be a pain in the ass is if you changed the generated file to suit your needs and did not change the one you bundle with your package. If this is intended behavior, IMHO it is significantly less intuitive. Its kind of like saying a class should only be recompiled if you delete the class before recompiling, where one would expect that changing the source would be enough. Just my two cents. Aaron Tavistock -Original Message- From: Mike Cannon-Brookes [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, December 21, 2001 2:13 AM To: Orion-Interest Subject: Re: CMP Entity Bean Craziness You're not special at all (well you may be - but that's a different story ;)) - what you describe is exactly the intended behaviour of the server. You're editing the deployment files in your EAR which are only used _IF AND ONLY IF_ there is no existing deployment file. Otherwise the existing deployment file is used, and the one in the EAR ignored. This behaviour is as it should be because otherwise you'd end up overwriting your deployment settings all the time which would be a royal pain in the ass. HOWEVER to do what you want, simply delete the deployment directory and your edited files will be copied and used. You will see a message on the console telling you that the deployment file has been copied. Hope this helps clear things up. Cheers, Mike

Re: orion xml's
Morten, What you ask for already exists. You can create your own orion-ejb-jar.xml files, and place them next to your ejb-jar.xml files, and they will be automatically deployed. The reason that most people edit the deployed ones is that they don't care to remember the syntax. If you let orion generate them, then you can just edit the file. Also, if you create an orion-ejb-jar.xml file, you do not need to specify all the parameters, orion will fill them in if you have missed some. One other point to watch out for, is that once an orion-ejb-jar.xml file is deployed, it will not be overwritten. So you will need to delete the existing one for it to be redeployed.

The parameters to these tags are as follows: default-web-app application=default name=defaultWebApp / web-app application=EJBDemo name=ejbdemo-web root=/ejbdemo / web-app application=taglib-test name=sitemesh-example root=/sitemesh / application:the application as defined in server.xml (tag in server.xml is application, and the parameter is name). ie. from above I have an application named EJBDemo in server.xml name: the web application's name as defined in that particular application. ie. Inside my application.xml for EJBDemo, there is a web-application named ejbdemo-web. root: where you web-app is rooted on the tree. From the above localhost/ejbdemo/ would correspond with the web-app ejbdemo-web in application EJBDemo. Server.xml ++ There is only one of these per server, so it is the root point for all the other files. Of particular note are the lines: web-site path=./default-web-site.xml / application name=EJBDemo path=c:\scott\javadev\ejbdemo\build\ejbdemo.ear / These lines show me what websites and what applications I have running. You would only need multiple web-site's if you are serving multiple domains. On the other hand, you may have many applications. If you have many web-applications you will need to add them into your websites as listed above. Application.xml +++ If you are creating a full-blown application, you are best to create a separate one of these for each application. Inside here you define modules. These can be web modules, ejb modules, or java modules. If they are web modules, you will want to add them to a website in order to view them. Creating a quick and dirty jsp ++ However - many people have asked about quickly deploying a jsp in a default way. In this case you are probably best to modify the file application.xml that resides in /config/ with the other xml files. Simply add a web module to this file, and then add that particular web module to your default-web-site.xml eg. You want to create a web-app called jsp-test that will be show at localhost/jsp-test/ + Create the directory jsp-test under orion - ie orion/jsp-test + add the following line to orion/config/application.xml web-module id=jsp-test path=../jsp-test / + add the following line to orion/config/default-web-site.xml web-app application=default name=jsp-test root=/jsp-test / + create the directory web-inf under jsp-test - ie orion/jsp-test/web-inf + copy the file web.xml from orion/default-web-app/web-inf/web.xml to +orion/jsp-test/web-inf/web.xml + if you wish to add anything (ie servlets), add them to the file +orion/jsp-test/web-inf/web.xml + start the server. You should be able to view jsp's that are put in orion/jsp-test now at localhost/jsp-test.

It's all pretty bewildering to a newbie, and nowhere on orion site do i see a straightforward explanation/primer of the above. AFTER I grasp this, i'm less likely to ask dumb config questions or make things worse. thanks to anyone who can point me in the right direction. j
Re: broken default web app - not found
orion/config/default-web-site.xml: default-web-app application=default name=defaultWebApp / -- default-web-app application=pussycat name=defaultWebApp / You may also have problems as you are running two websites that are both listening on port 80 to all hosts: web-site path=./pussycat-web-site.xml / web-site path=./default-web-site.xml / You may need to change orion/config/default-web-site.xml: web-site host=[all] port=80 display-name=Default Orion WebSite - web-site host=[all] port=8080 display-name=Default Orion WebSite All you examples should then be available on port 8080. I think this is right. What you should have done is left the default-application as default in server.xml, and then don't worry about the extra web-site. You can then add extra web-apps in default-web-site.xml If I haven't explained things properly, let me know and I'll write a full example.

Stateless Session Beans
I'm hoping that someone can help me with this. Can you have a stateless session bean that actually has class variables?

RE: Building an application
Two things that might be of interest: !-- The default web-app for this site, bound to the root -- default-web-app application="default" name="defaultWebApp" / in default-web-site.xml .

Re: SecurityAdapter for Orion
I haven't looked at the petstore demo, but from the error I would say that the class: com.sun.j2ee.blueprints.petstore.control.ejb.ModelUpdateManager does not implement serializable, and when Orion tries to serialise it (to marshall for RMI, or save to DB), then it throws an error.

This is what you must inform orion of Application.xml contains references to your modules. eg. application display-nameTag Tutorial/display-name module web web-uritaglib-test-web/web-uri context-root//context-root /web /module module ejbejbdemo-ejb/ejb /module /application And the directory structure / /meta-inf/ /meta-inf/application.xml /taglib-test-web/ /taglib-test-web/web-inf/ /taglib-test-web/web-inf/web.xml /ejbdemo-ejb/ /ejbdemo-ejb/meta-inf/ /ejbdemo-ejb/meta-inf/ejb-jar.xml This is a quick overview (and may contain errors and omissions) Try the tutorials on orionsupport and jollem.

Re: Uploading class file from application client
I would imagine that you would need to upload the class to somewhere where the classloader can find them. I'm not sure where this is in orion. If orion can load classes dynamically, then all you would have to do is to save them into the correct directory. If you want to save them to a database, you may have to write your own version of classloader. Not sure how hard this would be. Scott PS - Read the above at your own risk - i'm purely speculating. [EMAIL PROTECTED] 03/09/01 07:48am Hello, This is not an Orion specific question, but since I'm using Orion 1.4.7 I thought I'd try here. Is it possible to upload a class file from an application client? I want users to be able to implement a serializable interface, say X, and upload it to the server. The server will manage the interface and other users should be able to use that interface. I can model this as an Entity bean that has an attribute which is of type Class. However, the server would not have the implementation class on its classpath. How can I achieve this result? Or am I looking at the problem the wrong way? Thanks, Vidur

Re: JSP Session setting
AFAIK the session object is implicit to the page, such as request, response etc. It is part of the spec. [EMAIL PROTECTED] 03/07/01 01:43am I'm not sure if this is the correct place to ask this question but is there a way to turn off the session tracking in the jsp compiling in orion? Currently, no matter how you set the session-tracking tag in the configuration, when jsps are compiled the following line are ALWAYS there: HttpSession session; session = request.getSession(true); It seems that this will hinder performance in a clustered environment where only some of the applications require sessions. Is there a way to turn this off at a page or application level? Thanks Jim
RE: HTML/WML from JSP
Try looking at filters to parse the output using the user-agent info.
You could use a servlet / jsp to produce xml, and then a filter using a different XSL
transformation to parse send back to the client.
It depends on how many pages you are going to produce whether it is worth the hassle.
Scott
[EMAIL PROTECTED] 03/07/01 08:41am
If you want to determine the client and apply an appropriate xsl transformation from
the same .jsp you can request.getHeader("USER-AGENT") and parse the result - this is
handy for formatting wap content for different phones.
I
don't know if there's an orion specific easier way to do this as there is with
cocoon (the 'user agents' section of cocoon.properties) - does anyone else know?
As an aside this isn't always the best way to do it as you incur the overhead of the
transformation for every hit. See http://java.sun.com/products/jsp/html/JSPXML.html
for more on this.

RE: error instantiating web-app JNDI-context, JSP - EJB -- solved!
I'm sort of new to all this, but I will try and do my best to explain.
Think in terms of a packed application (ie application.ear)
Server files:
Server.xml = this defines the location of the ear file so that orion
can find it.
default-web-app.xml = this defines the web-server side of orion, where to
root applications at. So if you had multiple applications then you can root
them at different positions in the directory structure
Client files:
application.xml = this defines all the components of the application. You
will most probably have an EJB component(*.jar), web component (*.war), and
client component (*.jar). Once orion has looked at server.xml and found a
path to this file, it will look for components to deploy (extract). You may
have multiple web components in an application.
Web.xml = this sets up parameters for this particular web, such as welcome
file lists, and tag libraries. AFAIK there is one web.xml file for each web
application.
I hope that explains it.

Subject: Re: error instantiating web-app JNDI-context, JSP - EJB
-- solved!
Finally! I just now found the problem. I needed to add the following
line in
the Orion web-site.xml file:
web-app application="myApplication" name="web" root="/" /
My test JSP page worked, and since I was calling from within the
container I
just need to use InitialContext() without setting properties.
Now, can someone explain to me why there appear to be *four*
redundant
references to the same application path? They are:
1. In Orion's server.xml file (doctype: application-server):
application name="myApplication" path="../myApplication/" /
2. Orion's application.xml (doctype: orion-application):
web-module id="defaultWebApp" path="../myApplication/web/" /
3. Orion's web-site.xml file (doctype: web-site):
web-app application="myApplication" name="web" root="/" /
4. The J2EE application.xml file (doctype: application):
modulewebweb-uriweb/web-uri/web/module
Why do these four elements point to the same directory? And why did
I need
to have all four defined before my test would work?
Perhaps I don't fully understand the purpose of each of these; I
would
*love* an explanation.
Thanks for everyone who responded to my original question.

believe this question has been asked before on the list, but I

any responses.) Specifically, when calling context.lookup() from
