Hi,
well, you right I should have posted in the list my activity, but,
really, we are coming from a crazy week, and this one sound very similar to
the passed.
Ok, answering your question: I'm looking for a way to LEAVE jboss and
install WO on Linux, because I have too many problems with it and, of
course, I have no time to solve all of them, but I will wrote out some note
about my job for future help.
I can give you my opinion about the pros and cons to use JBoss.
*Pros*:
- JBoss is standalone, and, after adding an user jboss in a group jboss,
and config the run.sh with the path to you JRE, works without problems.
- You can alter the link where deploy your app changing the name of the
WAR package: for example I needed to obtain the url
http://{myhost}/cgi-bin/WebObjects/{MyApp}.woa,
but introducing a WAR file named {MyApp}.war I obtained
http://{MyApp}/WebObjects/{MyApp}.woa.
Then I changed the app name in cgi-bin.war then the path was correct.
- You can easily add balacer in Apache for accessing to the resources in
HTTP over port 80:
add mod_proxy, mod_proxy_ftp (probably not needed), mod_proxy_http,
mod_proxy_connect, mod_proxy_balancer to Apache2, and setup a virtual host
with:
<Proxy balancer://your-app>
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
BalancerMember
http://localhost:8080/your-path/WebObjects/Your-App.woa
</Proxy>
ProxyPass /your-path/WebObjects/Your-App.woa balancer://your-app
Then requesting the page http://{Your
Host}/your-path/WebObjects/Your-App.woa you get your app through port 80.
ATTENTION: you need to setup the SAME path in your-path, because WO
generate complete path in the links.
*Cons*:
- It's very slow to update package: I use Project Wonder, with Ajax,
Validation, JavaMail, Houdah and Postgresql (plus the defaults of a Wonder
App), so when I create the package is large 2 or 3 Mb of my App plus *66* Mb
of Frameworks, and upload that is very heavy (now it takes me 10 minutes,
but until last week we had a slow connection, then I needed 20 minutes to
upload a package). Every time I make a change is very slow to update the
version.
- WOLips has not a way to create WAR file for the Deployment (or at least
I did not find it): the web.xml, that WOLips creates, has the param
WOAppMode setted to Development (so the app work like you use
WODirectConnectEnabled=true) you have to change the file by hand and update
the WAR package.
- If you put in the deploy directory more than one WoApp the second one
does not start, because the WOServletAdaptor is not available (I don't
remember exactly the error, sorry. When I make some changes I will post it).
You have to change the load-on-startup vaue in the servlet element of the
web.xml file (for example, my first app has the default value, 5, then I
change the second app value to 6 and both start when I start the server).
The Problem occurs when I add 2 more apps, with the value of
load-on-startup to 7 and 8. The first, the third, the fouth start, but the
second does not. I thought was a name problem: the apps are called:
1st: cgi-bin
2nd: ticket
3rd: cims
4th: manutenzioni
then JBoss starts the app in the order 1 - 3 - 4 - 2, because it uses the
name order for the startup. I changed the load-on-startup value of the apps
in:
cgi-bin => 5
ticket => 8
cims => 6
manutenzioni => 7
but the ticket app still does not load, with the error WOServletAdaptor not
available.
The only way to make all the app working is: put cgi-bin and ticket apps
in the deploy directory, start the server, then, while working, add the cims
and the manutenzioni apps in the deploy directory. And I really have not
understood why it works in this way...
- Then I realized that if I start the server and then add the other two
apps without calling a first time cgi-bin and ticket, these ones lose the
localization default language (Italian) and use the standard (English).
- Last one, I still have the problem with the ERJavaMail that I posted
last week, even using the solution posted by Henrique the ERJavaMail try to
send mails to your.smtpserver.com, I thought it was a config of JBoss, but I
have not found this string in any configuration file.
With all of this problem, now I'm trying to install WO on linux, because
time for testing is finished and I have to put the apps working for
yesterday.
If someone have some advice for me, I really appreciate,
