Any IPlanet API to modify virtual server entry in server.XML?

Hi All,

Hi Manuel,
If you want to modify search results, you should develop a search post-operation plugin.

Can I use the search engine and run a web application under the same iPlanet 6.0 virtual server?

I've got an iPlanet 6.0 SP2 virtual server with the search engine enabled, which was tested and working. I then deployed a web application to it (mapped to "/"), and the web application works fine but now the search functionality is completely broken. Browsing to /search results in a directory index being displayed. Is there some trick to getting the two working together? I tried shuffling NameTrans directives around, but can only get either the search or the web app working, not both.

Ok, I'm going to answer my own question now...
The issue has been resolved after some additional experimentation on my part. There were two causes for my problem:
1. The NameTrans directives in obj.conf are in the wrong order when Java and Search are enabled from the administration interface.
Here's the admin server generated obj.conf I started with initially, when the web application was working, but requests to the URI "/search" returning a 404 error:
<Object name="default">
NameTrans fn="NSServletNameTrans" name="servlet"
NameTrans fn="pfx2dir" from="/search-ui" dir="/usr/local/iWS-6.0/plugins/search/ui" name="es-internal"
NameTrans fn="pfx2dir" from="/mc-icons" dir="/usr/local/iWS-6.0/ns-icons" name="es-internal"
NameTrans fn="pfx2dir" from="/manual" dir="/usr/local/iWS-6.0/manual/https" name="es-internal"
NameTrans fn="es-search-nametrans" from="/search"
NameTrans fn="NSServletNameTrans" name="servlet"
NameTrans fn="document-root" root="$docroot"
</Object>
Here's my obj.conf now, which works perfectly:
<Object name="default">
NameTrans fn="pfx2dir" from="/search-ui" dir="/usr/local/iWS-6.0/plugins/search/ui" name="es-internal"
NameTrans fn="pfx2dir" from="/mc-icons" dir="/usr/local/iWS-6.0/ns-icons" name="es-internal"
NameTrans fn="pfx2dir" from="/manual" dir="/usr/local/iWS-6.0/manual/https" name="es-internal"
NameTrans fn="es-search-nametrans" from="/search"
NameTrans fn="NSServletNameTrans" name="servlet"
NameTrans fn="document-root" root="$docroot"
</Object>
The "servlet" NameTrans directive needs to go below all others which map a URI to a function or directory (but before "document-root"), or they break. This is consistent with the iPlanet documentation on NameTrans, but the admin server doesn't get it right!
2. The developer who wrote the web application uploaded a directory named "search" in the root of his application, which caused the server to display a directory index of "/search", instead of executing the search function. I believe this issue is covered in an iPlanet knowledge base article.

How to Modify Server.xml and web.xml inTomcat

Hii
i am very new to tomcat..and using servlets..so plx tell me hw i can modify the server.xml and web.xml....
if my installables are in c:\program files\apache group\tomcat4.1
ok...i have my servlets file in c:\program files\apache group\tomcat4.1\webapps\ap1\WEB-INF\classes..so plz advice me on modifying the server.xml and web.xml....also tell me how and what we do in mapping
Plz tell me soon...
thanking u in advance.
rahul
Take care.:)

for web.xml you need something like this, i took this from the web.xml under the examples directory in tomcat:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app
PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd">
<web-app>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>
servletToJsp
</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>
servletToJsp
</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>
CompressionFilterTestServlet
</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>
compressionFilters.CompressionFilterTestServlet
</servlet-class>
</servlet>
</web-app>
basically you need to map the servlet with a class, for servlet-name call it whatever you like, you'll be using this name in the url to access you servlet, for the class give it the name of the class, java complied class, that's it.
server.xml is used to configure tomcat.

Configuring virtual server using iplanet.

is it possible to have a virtual server which do not have an entry in DNS server but have entry in etc/host file?
i am using iplanet for configuring a virtual server

The inbound port is the port that is used on the Internet side. It is the port that the outside world will use when accessing your service.
The private port is the port that the router sends it to on your local network. It is the port where your computer is expecting the information.
Many times you will set both ports to the same value.

Is there any Java API to interact/integrate with Adobe LiveCycle Policy Server

Hi,
We are already using Adobe LiveCycle Policy server & has manual process in place to send documents to clients.
Going forward we want to automate this document generation process. We are using Java, JEE in our application.
We are planning to use below steps to automate this process.
1) Administrator will create a Template in Adobe Policy Server and will map users intended to receive mails with this template
2) Our application will interact with Adobe Policy Server and use Template ID to generate PDF document and send mails to client.
Can anyone please let me know if there is any Java API which can be used to perform the above second step.
Thanks a lot for your help.

How to restart a virtual server in WS7

Does anybody know host restart a virtual server without restarting the whole instance?
Thanks.

you can run 'bin/reconfig' - this will make any changes (that does not require a restart) available to the running server (this includes all virtual servers configured within this server instance) without requiring a restart - i mean without any downtime
no, there is no way to make dynamic reconfig work only for a single virtual server. but i guess, what you care most is - ability to modify a setting for a virtual server without disturbing other virtual servers - 'bin/reconfig' is probably what u r looking for.

Need help in creating virtual server

Hi
I have configured the sun ONE portal server to run on a domain p1.test.com. A default virtual server with the listen socket is existing for this virtual server. But now I need to access the portal with another domain name p1.test.co.in. I have tried creating another virtual server but it is not working. Please help me in creating the virtual server. For the "urlhost", whether I have to specify the original machine name or new domain name. Please help me in this issue.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply. Actually I need the same content for both the url's. The DNS entries are already for the two urls's. It is getting the login page. But after giving the credentials it dosent brings the portal desktop page (seems to be going in a loop).
I have my Sun ONE LDAP server configured with the domain "test.com". Is there any changes that I have to make in the LDAP. Please help me in this issue.
Thank You.

Hi Chris,
thanks for your reply! Pilot Extended Listener; Pilot Listener; WWW and JBOSS are running and I started Pilot Extended Listener before Jboss, but it doesn't work.
It tries to open http://localhost/pilot/scriptmain.pw?userinfo=/pilot/pipadmin/adminstart4.htm but there isn't a file "scriptmain.pw" in the pilot directory, only the file "scriptmain.pip". Maybe it is missing?!

Having trouble restricting access to virtual multihosting entry

Hi,
I've created a new proxy instance with all default settings. I'm trying to use virtual multihosting with an ACL to restrict access to this virtual multihost. I'm having troubles and am not able to block it. I thought I could use a template to impose this, but perhaps I'm wrong. Here's how I've done it:
I've created a single template called "testing-access", containing:
http://testing\.mydomain\.com/.*
I've then added a single Virtual Multihost entry as follows:
Source Hostname (alias): testing
Source Domain Name: mydomain.com
Destination URL Prefix: http://testing2.mydomain.com
Use This Template: testing-access
At this stage, the virtual multihost works. I can access testing2.mydomain.com via testing.mydomain.com.
Now I go to implement the ACL to, for testing purposes only, Deny all access to this virtual multihost. Remember this just testing to learn how to apply an ACL to a virtual multihost. Later, my intention is to block all http access (by way of Deny applied to http://.* resource ACL) via the proxy, except for the virtual multihosts. These virtual multihosts will also include access control based on different IP addresses. The thought is to have a different template for each virtual multihost then apply a set of ACE Allow conditions for the template's ACL.
I go into Administer Access Control, select the "The template 'testing-access'" resource. I then click on Edit and add the ACL as follows:
Action: Deny
Users/Groups: anyone
From Host: anyplace
Rights: all
Extra: N/A
Continue: enabled
I restart the server instance then attempt to access the virtual multihost, which I can. I cannot understand why this is not being blocked.
I've tried changing Continue to be disabled but that hasn't helped either. It seems as though the ACL for http://.* (which incidentally by default has no ACL) is taking precedence. I've also tried adding to the template without success: http://testing2\.mydomain\.com/.*
If I were to add an ACL to http://.* resource to Deny it blocks all http://.* requests. This is no good because effectively what I would like to do is block all http://.* access EXCEPT for those virtual multihosts I add. Each virtual multihost will need to have its own ACL to restrict based on IP. This is why I created a template for the one above. The objective would be to add several Allow ACEs depending on host, such that only those who are on this ACL can access the URL in the template (a virtual multihost, remember), anything else is blocked via the http://.*
I only did the test at the top to learn how to successfully implement an ACL on a reverse multihost, by applying a Deny for everyone via the template ACL.
Any ideas?

In the case structure you can replace the 'success' button with the vi that you want to run. If you set the properties of the vi to 'show front panel when called' it will open and run when a log-in is successful.
There are other ways to do this, this is one of the more simple ways.

Problem with virtual Server

We are trying to fix a problem where a URL is only supposed to be visible from the company intranet, not the internet as a whole.
We have created a virtual server on the same system that is listening on a different port (1443 instead of 443) . However despite various changes to the server.xml such as changing the docroot, disabling or removing WEBAPP entries etc, the server behaves exactly the same on port 1443 as it does on port 443.
If I could make it display ANYTHING differently it would be a start. Any assistance is appreciated.

Re: [iPlanet-JATO] Tomcat 3.2 serving images and html?

First of all David you are faster responding to email than I am. Thanks.
We tried your scheme with no luck. You are using "ROOT" as your war file
name ROOT, correct? Are you sure the jsp would reference
"/images/MyProject/nppnback.gif"? Why is "MyProject" in there? Where is
the directory "images" defined to Tomcat? Is it a default?
Here's another try at explaining:
In my JSP I have;
<IMG SRC="/images/ef.gif" ALT=People Banner">
My application is in webapps/EformsAppWar
(jsps in EformsAppWar/EformsApp/eforms/*.jsp)
(classes in EformsAppWar/WEB-INF/classes)
so images are in webapps/EformsAppWar/images
and there is, indeed a ef.gif there.
However with no server.xml changes (everything default), Tomcat 3.2
gives a 404 in his log and states in the 404 message that context is
null (CTX < >) and ca't find /images/ef.gif + NULL.
By the way I just noticed that in Tomcat 3.1 I have the images directory
directly under webapps.

This works:
If the doc root is webapps\ROOT --
Using defaults...jsp's would be put in
webapps\ROOT\MyProjectApp\MyProject\*.jsp
and images would be put in webapps\ROOT\images\*.gif
Then in your jsp...use the following reference:

That will work just using defaults and not playing with any of the

ie. webapps\ROOT\WEB-INF gets updated as well (with required

Need to create a virtual server and give its access to another admin

Dear Sir,
I am a new admin and have 5 Blade server "HP ProLiant BL660c Gen8".
I access these servers through HP enclosure.
I have to install Hyper-V on server 1 which consisted of the OS windows server 2012 R2 Datacenter edition.
I created a plan to create 5 Hyper-V VM's on the physical server and I requested the IT department network Admin that I want these 5 VM's to able to connect to each other.
The network Admin created a Trunking configuration on the physical server and after this setup he provided me Hyper-v node IP address and 5 more IP addresses for the 5 Hyper-v VM's.
Now it was left to me to Add the Hyper-v role and create 5 VM's.
While Adding the Hyper-V role, I was asked in the middle of the setup to add the network adapter for
connecting to external network.
I went inside the network connection settings and I see one network adapter "Microsoft Multiplexer"
which had the IP address of the Hyper-V node which was given to be me by Network Admin.
Besides this I found following Network Adapter: (Mgmt,Trunk):(Mgmt A, Trunk A);(Mgmt B, Trunk B) =Total
6 Network Adapter out of which only "Mgmt" was configured with the IP address of the Hyper-v node given by my Network Admin. Remaining all other Network adapters IPV4 configuration
was unchecked except "Mgmt"
So I selected the "Mgmt" connection while Installing the Hyper-v role
SO I chose this Network connection for adding the Hyper-V role.
My question: Did I chose the correct Network Adapter.
After doing this I created a VM-1 and tried to assign the IP address given by the Network Admin. But the network Admin did not provide me the default gateway so I used the deafult gateway according to the IP address and used the last digit as "1"
like a general installation.
Now my question is: 1.How can I use this VM to be used as a Virtual server?
2. I would like to open this VM through my browser by entering the IP address of this VM-1. How can I do this?
Because I access my physical server through the IP address. SO in the similar way I want to access this VM-1 through the IP address
OR is there any alternate way to access this VM-1 separately.
My Requirement: I need to give VM-1 access to another admin to Install his application on it. SO how to give him to access this VM directly?
This is my main query.
Waiting for your reply.
Thanks & Regards,
Ahmed

Jawin, Jacob, etc.. are fine for creating COM clients but COM servers is a totally different story. I suspect you'll either have to write your own JNI or get out your C/C++ compiler.

The admin server is owned by root but the instance that I want to create should be owned by webservd - like the other instance that is installed.
this error shows that web server is unable to create a directory under SUNWwbsvr folder. Any hints pls?
thanks!

sorry this error is while creating a new server instance - not a new virtual server.
File System Error: Could not create directory /opt/SUNWwbsvr/https-web-content (permission denied)

Any IPlanet API to modify virtual server entry in server.XML?
