How to get a thread dump from Weblogic 9.1

Hi All,
Can someone please walk me through how to configure a WLS9.1 server to generate thread dumps. Ideally I'd like to do this via the admin console. I read about the MagicThreadDumpFile property, but can't see where/how to set it.
Many Thanks
Stuart

I only know how to do this in WLS 8.1, but it will likely work in 9.1. On UNIX, you can send a kill -QUIT to the pid and it will dump threads to standard output for the server. You can also use weblogic.Admin THREAD_DUMP (http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs92/admin_ref/cli.html#wp1197887) or whatever is the equivalent in WLST now that weblogic.Admin is deprecated in 9.x. I'm guessing it is the threadDump() method documented at http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs92/config_scripting/reference.html#wp1104314.
I know of no way to do this through the console, unfortunately.

How to get a Thread Dump from Windows Service?

We're running WLS 8.1 as a Windows Service, but we can't seem to generate a Thread Dump when the server locks up (apparently).
Can anybody recommend a wrapper that will do this?
--Kurt

Hi,
Please refer to the following URL for more information http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs81/adminguide/winservice.html
To cause the WebLogic Server instance to print a thread dump to standard out, do either of the following:
Use the weblogic.Admin THREAD_DUMP command. For more information, refer to "THREAD_DUMP" in the WebLogic Server Command Reference.
Open a command prompt and enter the following command:
WL_HOME\bin\beasvc -dump -svcname:service-name
where WL_HOME is the directory in which you installed WebLogic Server and
service-name is the Windows service that is running a server instance.
For example:
D:\bea\weblogic81\server\bin\beasvc -dump -svcname:mydomain_myserver
Cheers

How to get a thread dump, in case of an IDE freeze

When you're working with the IDE and if it either freezes or becomes sluggish for no apparent reason, it's recommended to generate a thread dump, and report it to Studio feedback alias ([email protected]) with a description of what happened and attach the dump to it.
A thread dump is an invaluable source of information to IDE developers when investigating deadlocks and some performance issues. It is a textual dump of all active threads and monitors of Java apps running in a Virtual Machine.
The ways to generate a thread dump differ depending on the platform:
* Windows systems
Press Ctrl-Break in the command console you used to start the IDE.
You won't be able to see the console in case you started the IDE using the default desktop icon created by the IDE installer. To be able to generate the thread dump, you must launch the IDE using a console window (invoke Command Prompt, go to {studio-install-dir}/bin and type runide.exe), or configure the desktop shortcut properties to launch the runide.exe program instead of the default runidew.exe.
Note: You should increase the screen buffer size of the command prompt, so that it could retian the entire thread dump output. To do that, on the command prompt where IDE is running, open the properties dialog box by right clicking on the titlebar and selecting 'properties'. Then select the 'layout tab' and increase the 'screen buffer size' parameters to - width - 200, Height - 4000.
* Unix systems
Press Ctrl-\ in the terminal console you used to start the JSE.
Alternatively, you can also generate a thread dump by sending the QUIT signal to the Java VM running the JSE
kill -QUIT process_id
where process_id is the process number of the respective java process.
-------Here is a sample thread dump -------

You can get a thread dump (Windows only) whitout any preparation. Simply use the Stack Trace tool from this web site:

It works on Windows services too.

How to get the Database type from weblogic Db connection

I want to use database version control in my application . that means different database type use different Sql Statement. Such as in weblogic7.0 if I create SqlServer JDBC pool then I will use some special Sqlserver sql Statement . such as some join statement. If I create Oralce JDBC pool then I have to use different Sql statement . because these two database support different Sql statement.
What my question is how to get the database type from the connection.

For a normal jdbc driver you can use
Connection.getMetaData()
To get the meta data, in particular the getDatabase...() methods.
That might or might not work.
However, at the very least in the server you have access to the weblogic properties so you can parse the pool property to figure it out.

Get concurrent user amount from WebLogic Server 6.1

Does someone know how to get concurrent user amount from WebLogic Server 6.1
by writing AP.
thank for your help!

If each user in your system corresponds to an active session,
you can get a count of all the active session MBeans and that
will be your user count. I have used code like this:
import javax.management.*;
import weblogic.management.*;
import weblogic.management.runtime.*;
try {
//-- Get the domain's Admin MBean Home so we can ask it questions
weblogic.management.MBeanHome mbh =
weblogic.management.Helper.getAdminMBeanHome("system", "<password>",
"t3://localhost:7001");
//-- Get JUST the session runtime mbeans (one per active session)
Set sessionMBeans = mbh.getMBeansByType( "ServletSessionRuntime" ) ;
System.out.println( "Number ServletSessionRuntime MBeans: " +
sessionMBeans.size() );
} catch( Exception e ) {
System.out.println( "Exception: " + e);
e.printStackTrace();
Hope this helps!

Doing a thread dump from a script?

Weblogic 7Frank,
You can supply THREAD_DUMP as an option with weblogic.Admin and script
that out. When you say "and it will output it to standard output" I'm
a little confussed, the output goes to the server's stdout by default,
do you mean stdout from where the script is executed?
~RyanMy weblogic startup script >> outputs to another log file...when I use the THREAD_DUMP
option in the weblogic.Admin class, it dumps it to that...However...what I wanted
was to write a separate script to use weblogic.Admin and output to STDOUT of that
script....Is that possible.

How to monitor/examine threads usage in WebLogic Server?

Hi,
I need to monitor andd examine the usage of the threads (execute, non-blocking
execute, etc.) in my WebLogic Server (WLS) instance (5.1 SP10 on Solaris 2.6)
so that I can check that multi-threading is being used by WLS when executing methods
on some objects.
I have looked at the WLS Console but it does not seem to give any useful info
on this. I have used OptimizeIt during the development on NT and know that it
gives some info on threads usage but am not sure if it will do the job on a Solaris
box with 1000's of requests hitting WLS.
Has anybody done something similar and/or recommend any tips/tool?
Many thanks in advance.

On solaris, do
kill -3 <weblogic_process_id>
You will get a thread dump to standard error of the WebLogic process. Usually
this is all you need to know.

How to get auto proxy configuration from plugin?

I need to retrieve the name of the client's proxy server to pass it along to my signed applet (because it doesn't seem to be getting the information automatically despite the fact that the java plugin is set to the use the browser settings for proxies).
The Java Plugin loads the proxy server information based on the browser preferences, but I haven't figured out how to retrieve that proxy information from the Plugin itself. Sometimes the javaplugin.proxy.auto.url system property is null, even if the browser (MSIE) is configured to use an auto-configuration script/url for the proxy server configuration. I can see in the Java Console that the plugin knows the auto-config url, so how can I access that property from within my applet?
Even if javaplugin.proxy.auto.url is not null, I don't know how to call the javascript function at that URL from within the applet to get the proxy server host name and port.
Does anyone know how to get the proxy information from the plugin?

Thank you! Indeed, the answer was there, but I hadn't been able to find it earlier (I guess I was searching on the wrong forums). For those who might be interested, here's the thread that helped:

Getting a thread dump

Is there a way from within a java program to get a thread dump of the jvm? I want to write some code that watched for a certain condition, then immediatly halts the jvm and dumps all the thread state.
Thanks for your ideas...

Thanks, but... those methods are useful for getting a status of the current thread, or of other threads in your thread group, but that is not I'm after.
What I need is similar to the effect of sending a SIGQUIT signal to the JVM, causing it to stop and dump all the thread state. I want to trigger that from code running in the JVM.
Basically I am trying to track down a bug in a complex server application, where on a dual processor box (only!), the current time zone gets reset to GMT at some point. It happens at some non-deterministic point in the application's lifetime. The app is multithreaded. I was going to just write a watchdog thread that continually monitored the timezone, then when the timezone changed the watchdog would dump all thread states. After doing this a few times I was hoping to see a pattern in where the various threads were executing. Needless to say, I have examined all the code, and nothing is setting the timezone explicitly.

How to get all the values from the dropdown menu

How to get all the values from the dropdown menu
I need to be able to extract all values from the dropdown menu; I know how to get all those values as a string, but I need to be able to access each item; (the value in a dropdown menu will change dynamically)
How do I get number of item is selection dropdown?
How do I extract a ?name? for each value, one by one?
How do I change a selection by referring to particular index of the item in a dropdown menu?
Here is the Path to dropdown menu that I'm trying to access (form contains number of similar dropdowns)
RSWApp.om.GetElementByPath "window(index=0).form(id=""aspnetForm"" | action=""advancedsearch.aspx"" | index=0).formelement[SELECT](name=""ctl00$MainContent$hardwareBrand"" | id=""ctl00_MainContent_hardwareBrand"" | index=16)", element
Message was edited by: testtest

The findElement method allows various attributes to be used to search. Take the following two examples for the element below:
<Select Name=ProdType ID=testProd>
</Select>
I can find the element based on its name or any other attribute, I just need to specify what I am looking for. To find it by name I would do the following:
Set x = RSWApp.om.FindElement("ProdType","SELECT","Name")
If I want to search by id I could do the following:
Set x = RSWApp.om.FindElement("testProd","SELECT","ID")
Usually you will use whatever is available. Since the select element has no name or ID on the Empirix home page, I used the onChange attribute. You can use any attribute as long as you specify which one you are using (last argument in these examples)
You can use the FindElement to grab links, text boxes, etc.
The next example grabs from a link on a page
Home
Set x = RSWApp.om.FindElement("Home","A","innerText")
I hope this helps clear it up.

How to get the return values from a web page

Hi,
What kind of web page do you have? Do you have possibility to for example make RFCs? Then you could trigger events (with parameters that could "return" the values) and the workflow could react to those events. For example your task can have terminating events.
