Re: Why is ofbiz integrated with tomcat?
To complete Scott's explanation, if needed http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBTECH/Run+OFBiz+under+outside+Application+Servers Jacques From: "Scott Gray" Hi Ylan OFBiz is deployable as an EAR and the various app server deployment templates in the framework/appserver/ directory facilitate this. The main reasons as far as I am aware for using embedded tomcat is as follows: - Simple setup and deployment - Ability to change files on the fly without redeploying - I'm not sure if it is still the case, but there have been issues in the past where the EAR standard doesn't allow for the use of a shared classpath between the OFBiz applications and often requires the use of app server specific EAR extensions - Meets the vast majority of users' needs as is At the end of the day it is a fairly simple thing to upgrade tomcat (especially minor versions) when needed and our current deployment model is much easier to use and maintain. But as I mentioned above, if someone really wanted to go that route it is possible and there are some tools in OFBiz to assist with it.

Languages really used in OFBiz
Hi, I'd like to suggest something. OOTB we show all possible languages, could we not limit the list to the languages really used in OFBiz? Ie those with at least one label If you agree I will do it Jacques

Apache / Tomcat issue
Using Apache for web users, proxypass set to ajp://localhost:8109/ Every so often, at seemingly random times, the web site stops responding, and in the Apache logs, we see this: [Wed Feb 10 09:02:49 2010] [error] (70007)The timeout specified has expired: ajp_ilink_receive() can't receive header We'll see lots of these around that time, and, eventually, after 20 minutes or so, web site works again. Sometimes, it's during the day, other times, it's at low volume times at night. I've looked at various other sites referencing that message, and tried some of the suggestions, to no avail. So far, that includes upping some thread limits and specifying retry=0 or 2 on the ajp proxypass directive. Not sure if this might be a Tomcat problem since ofbiz is using an older 6.0.16 Tomcat. There are a lot of thread fixes since that version. Any thoughts on how to figure out what the problem is? What might be causing this, and, how to get around the problem? Steve
How to manage uom conversion
Hi guys. I've been testing oum conversion funcionality. 1) I created a product P with quantityUomId = WT_g 2) I asociated P to a supplier S with quantityUomId = WT_kg 3) I created a purchase order Supplier = S Product = P Quantity = 1 4) I approved and receipted the PO. So, the item inventory generated has: QOH = 1 ATP = 1 But, I thought that OFbiz convert 1 to 1000 when I receipted it. (table CONVERSION_UOM) QOH = 1000 ATP = 1000 I've seen that the table INVENTORY_ITEM not save the uom value in the field UOM_ID but I not have seen where ofbiz save the oum in purchase order. Finally, Somebody knows how to manage uom conversions?. Do I have to configure something? Help me please? Than you. -- Juan Pablo Cell 997204299

Re: credit card authorization + capture
Hi Mike, Its true when authorize + capture is performed in OFBiz an accounting transaction gets created. Now for performing any accounting transaction a user must be authorized to do so. In short user must be having that permission. As order has been placed from front end or we can say by the end user of the site so it will not be feasible that we give accounting transaction permission to this user who is just visiting your site for purchasing the product. Though I agree with the fact is that authorize + capture can be performed without commenting any eca of accounting.
