ASPE8 crippleware

I have downloaded ASPE8 to compare it with our current production application server, with a view to convincing the business to move from Orion (blech!).
I am having nothing but trouble trying to deploy a real-world app to this apparently crippled appserver.
Does anyone know if it is possible to configure IP virtual hosts (ie HTTP/S listeners on multiple virtual IPs) on PE? I can't and there is no Sun documentation mentioning any specific limitation of PE in this regard.
<rant>
I have gotten past the inability to create more than one server instance despite the lack of any mention of this fact in any of the included documentation and the contradictory asadmin help.
But it seems I cant even configure IP virtual hosts (an obvious necessity if your virtual hosts all listen on the same port numbers).
Sun pitched PE as a development platform - for what? ... HelloWorldEJB?
Tomcat5 is apparently the web container and yet I can't even accomplish simple configuration tasks which are trivial in the free Tomcat server.
I can appreciate the need to protect the relative value of the Standard Edition - but do it by adding value to the free components not subtracting it.
Having given up on PE I have downloaded the Standard Edition to my Debian box.
OH GREAT - seems if you don't use RatHead you're pretty well stuck.
Yes, I know Redhat is the only SUPPORTED linux distro - but guys, there is a difference between officially supporting a platform and making it impossible for someone to even try it on another linux distro without the support.
I'm not even anti-Sun. The point of this whole exercise was to convince my employer to use Sun's App server on our $1000,000+ Sun production hardware.
Sun please sort out your distribution model. Why can't I get SE as a tarball like PE? A tarball would be just fine - worked well for over 20 years. Why the sudden fascination with RPMs and vendor lock-in. The whole point of Java and Linux from the customer point of view is to avoid it.
</rant>

SE is actually available as "tar ball" (well, not exactly tar ball, but in the same non-RPM format as PE), so you should be able to try it out on Debian. This distribution is available on JES3 companion CD. To download go here:

and scroll down to "Accessory CD, Volume 1" and follow the download link.

  • Work-around for Mavericks USB-sync crippleware?

    Has anyone found one? Does reinstalling 10.8 work?
    I grudgingly started using iCloud when I had no choice. It is not reliable. Constant problems syncing calendars, contacts, mail accounts, etc. And I am currently in New York City, with excellent mobile data coverage and frequent access to Wifi. But I spend large parts of my life in places with no Internet. And still do not understand why Apple apps on two pieces of Apple hardware should not be able to talk to each other with the USB cord that Apple provided with purchase.
    So is there a work-around? Ideally one that does not involve wasting any more time uninstalling and reinstalling operating systems?

    Yes it's back! ( and works! ) Thank you Apple!
    Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you.

  • Crippleware

    Adobe reader is still broken - no goto page or way to bookmark page. Any PDF more than a dozen pages long is painful. I have hundreds of technical documents I can not use with the playbook.
    Kobo reader ONLY works with ebooks from their store. No sideload capability. No point in converting those PDFs to ePub because Kobo won't see them.
    Where are the 'kindle for playbook' or 'nook for playbook apps - either would be an acceptable solution.
    Really frustrated!

  • MySQL`s CEO labels Express Edition crippleware

    Martin Mickos, CEO of MySQL AB said "If a company gives out a version that's free of charge but closed-source, they stand to gain nothing until you upgrade to their very expensive versions."
    http://news.com.com/MySQL+CEO+offers+mixed+view+of+Oracle/2100-1012_3-6065375.html?tag=nefd.top

    It is part of the CEO's responsibility to ensure that the market value of a company continues to expand. Therefore, a CEOs should introduce doubt about the competition in such a way to distinguish the 'value' of the company's product. Even if it makes no sense at all, or totaly meaningless rhetoric.
    It's so popular, it even has a name - FUD (Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt).
    BTW - this observation is not a reflection on the product capability or quality. Just the marketing tactic.

  • So slow performance I can see bad code architecture!  Help!

    I've been a Mac user since 2002, I've resisted the dark side until then.   And I've never had the kinds of problems I am having for the past year and I can't figure it out at all.  I would really like to reinstall Mac OS X 10.7, but I have never used Timemachine to restore data and I'm not sure how the entire process works.  Can someone tell me or give me a relevant link for how to reinstall the entire OS cleanly, without keeping anything, and then to repopulate my home directory with the data from the most recent Timemachine backup.  Note that my backup sits on an external USB drive, which is partitioned so that the first 500GB is used by the Timemachine and the rest (about 1TB) is storage space I keep files on (which are obviously not backed up!).  So I'd need to restore from the first partition of the external drive.  I am really worried that I'll have to hunt down and reinstall all the other apps I have on the system, some of which may not be avilable for download any more perhaps?  Or maybe I'd lose some settings and preferences I like?  Does the Timemachine backup that type of stuff, too, along with the home folder?  I don't know..   I have relied on maybe 1-2 unix tools, too, but I think they are in my home directory, though I'm not sure! 
    The real solution is that I'd just like to speed things up a bit, and not have to go through the reinstall process.  It is a dual core 2ghz machine with 2GB ram.  It's a 13" Macbook mid-2006, so kinda old.  But it used to run flawlessly up unti labout a year ago!  I've run disk utility from Restore mode and it found no errors and there were no permissions to be fixed either.  Here is the break down of the symptoms this machine is suffering with.
    It takes 10 seconds for the hidden dock to appear when I move the mouse to the left edge of the screen, sometimes the beachball appears first.  The CPU monitor does not rise above 15% ever!
    Activating Expose by moving the mouse to the bottom left corner takes roughly 7 seconds or longer.  Beachball never appars, CPU never above 20% either!
    Double click on a desktop folder can take up to 10 seconds to highlight in blue the icon, and then a further 20-30 seconds to actually open the folder.  Sometimes beachball appears twice or three times, the CPU isn't above 15% ever either.
    Creating a new folder reveals a huge flaw in Apple's OS architecture due to the extreme latency of the system.  I can see the folder icon appear first, then a few seconds later the text to the right appears and it says "Untitled Folder", and then the text gets highlighted.  So they're wasting CPU time by showing it once and then highlighting it.  Then I type the new name and I press enter.  Instead of the new name appearing, I can see a further stupidity in design by Apple, because it reverts to "Untitled Folder" for about 5-10 seconds, and then the text is replaced with what I had typed.
    In iPhoto if I select Export and the dialog box is supposed to appear, it doesn't happen the first time I select Export, ever!  I always have to do it twice or three times, and then the dialog box appears.
    In TextEdit, when I select Save for an untitled document, the dialog box appears, but the "File Type" combo box is wrongly placed.  Half of it is on the modal dialog, and the other half is on the desktop.  If I resize the window, the jaggedly placed selection box remains attached at it's mid-point to the right edge of the dialog box, so always half of it is on the desktop!  This happens about 50% of the time.
    If I click on the TimeMachine menu icon (little circular arrow) I get the beachball and then after 15-20 seconds the menu appears!  If I click due to lack of patience many times, the clicks get queued up and then after 20 seconds they all get executed in rapid succession, so the menu opens and closes 3-4 times in a row! 
    The above happens for any menu bar icon, including WIFI, etc...
    Timemachine's "Preparing to backup" can take 10 minutes.  The actual backup takes about 15 minutes, even though it's only backing up 100MB.  And it's always backing up 100MB, every freaking hour (how stupid of Apple not to provide a human-friendly way to control the frequency!).  So for 30 minutes of every hour, Timemachine is backing up.
    I keep my iTunes library on my external drive on the storage partition.  When I'm playing music, all works fine.  When I stop playing music, the external driev spins down.  That's how it should be, to extend it's life.  But OS X insists on waking up the drive every 15 minutes or so even when no application is using it's data.  Unfortunately OS X is so terribly designed, that whenever an exteranl drive is being woken up the entire graphical interface completely and totally locks up for about 5-6 seconds.  Streaming music may continue to play, but nothing else reacts to user input.  Text typing freezes, mouse clicks don't work, things cannot be dragged, cannot switch apps, etc.  There are a ton of people affected by this problem all posting on various forums, so reformatting and reinstalling won't fix this... It's another Apple criplpling effect!  It's been present for at least 2 major versions now! 
    If I am typing an email in Chrome on gmail.com, occasionally the browser tab freezes and refuses to let me type anything for 10 seconds, and when this happens, iTunes starts chopping out for a second or two several times duirng the 10 codn period, as if it can't handle the load.  However CPU stays below 15% during this whole time, too!
    50% of the time when I wake the system from sleep it does not connect to WIFI.  I have to click on the menubar and select my network and then it connects.  My router is not flaky, my other computers do not have this problem, ever!  I have every OS imaginable, too
    Despite all these problems, I have no problems running music apps such as Reason or Garageband, with one caveat.  Garageband struggles to playback songs I've composed on a 17" Powerbook G4!!!!  They have maybe 20 tracks of instruments/audio files, and that ancient CPU could play them without stopping.  This duo core 2GHZ with 2GB of ram periodically reports an overload and stops playback.  The CPU does not even reach 70% during this problematic portion.  Reason never complains, it's always below 10% no matter what I'm doing, and never gives me any problems whatsoever.
    Launching any application takes a full minute, or longer.  Chrome takes 2 full minutes to stop bouncing!  Apple's Mail app takes a minute or a bit longer!
    A basic Google search (typing text into Chrome's bar and pressing enter) takes 25-45 seconds to return results, despite the fact that I can download and acecss streaming and other content instantly from Netflix and other places without any delays!! 
    ***?!?!?!?    Is this a virus or something?!?!?!?  I only install software I buy from the App Store or at a store (beleive it or not there still are boxed softwares, those are super expensive though, hehe!)
    HELP!! 
    p.s. the third option I am thinking of is creating another user account and moving everything over.  But I don't know how to do that safely.  For example, I think iTunes doesn't properly store it's data, and even though I've told it to keep the library on the external drive, the "library" files (XML or wahtever) are kept on the local disk in the home directory?  I don't know, cuz I have two sets of those files, one in my user's directory and one in the iTunes folder on the external drive..

    You are surprised that Mac OS X 10.7 is running on hardware that Apple officially supports and says it will run on?  I find your logic unbelievably falwed.
    Not a single problem I've mentioned would be caused by "slow" CPU or "little" RAM.  How does iPhoto not bringing up the file dialog box have anything even remotely to do with the speed of the CPU or the quantity of RAM?  If what you say is true, then yes, performance would be bad, but it wouldn't be selectively bad.  I stated that apps such as Reason 5 run perfectly fine, even really well.  I can load 30-50 racks and synths and not even reach 50% of CPU utilization, Reason never freezes, etc.  DVD playback never freezes as well!!  Your logic is horrendously flawed, it seems you don't know much about computer architecture   Thus, unfortunately, your reply was of absolutely no help, sorry.
    p.s. the external disk spin up problem freezing up the entire graphical interface also has nothing to do with either my CPU/RAM or the OS version I'm running.  It is a known crippleware factor of Mac OS X that at least a thousand people are complaining about online and Apple has done nothing about! 

  • Arch box appears to knock out wifi

    I have encountered an interesting problem with my home network. My arch box has been out for a while and during that time I and all others in my apartment have had no issues with wireless connectivity. Recently however, I was able to get my desktop running again and now the standalone wireless router/dsl modem is dropping all of the wireless users. My arch desktop is connected via an ethernet cord and does not experience a loss of connection. But my iPod, netbook(running Windows 7) and my GF's netbook (running Mint) all lose their connection to the router and their ability to reconnect. The router is still broadcasting and appears on lists but no connection seems to be possible to it.
    Before my arch box went down a few months back, this issue had been popping up but I had forgotten about it until I got it working again.
    Fixing the matter so far has been either physically switching the router on and off or going into the router's software by browser and shutting the wireless radio on and off.
    I have yet to figure out what might be causing this and I have found no instances of this in my googling. Any thoughts?

    Make sure you Arch Box is not trying to become the definitive DHCP server on the network.  In other words, ensure the dhcp server is not running.
    Is your wireless set to the correct regulatory environment? (I cheated and used my moderator privilege -- I see where you are, so this is probably not the issue)
    You have not "Optimized" your power output or anything, have you?
    Edit:  What is your router?  I had similar issues, re-flashing my Netgear default crippleware firmware with DD-WRT made things work like magic.

    crippleware. Before I just uninstall everything but Office from this machine, how do I point a problem resulting a kernelbase.dll faulting?
    Only clients "Starting..." screen is showing before the crash.

    Please check if Word, Excel work correctly.
    Check if Lync 2013 works on other computer installed using the same installation media.

  • How do I find and locate duplicate files?

    What is the process to find and remove duplicate files. The tab is grayed out.   I am using version 13 and have over 1000 files and many of them are duplicates

    In unix you can use a combination of ls and diff.
    Unfortunately Apple is notorious for creating crippleware, so they have only provided this function in iPhoto and maybe iTunes.  There is no easy Finder solution, such as would make sense as part of Smart Folders!

  • Why can't Apple make 'publish changes only' for non .mac users?

    The recent iWeb update to 1.1 and the now increasingly obvious differential between .mac and non .mac features has prompted me to post here today.
    I can understand comments, passwords and search facilities being a .mac only experience because it requires server side technology. I can also understand that .mac users get enhanced features like slideshows as well.
    But why is the fundamentally *basic* option to 'publish the changes only' not available to non .mac users?
    I know uploading to .mac uses a different protocol to uploading via FTP, but I don't think it is about that. Obviously the software engine in iWeb 1.1 can now track the pages that have changed, and flag those for uploading. So if the facility to do this is not available with non .mac uploading, is this some form of crippleware? Can any software engineers comment on this or am I talking off the top of my head? [And please mods, don't delete this post - I use the word 'crippleware' in its harshest form, clearly I can still use iWeb to make fantastic websites - I am asking a technical question here.]

    OK, from reading this thread:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=486335&tstart=0
    There is a pattern: An error occurred while publishing file “/blah/blah", while file "/blah/blah" seems to be random from one person to the next, but they all share one thing and that is communication protocol.
    For iWeb to be able to publish changes to .Mac, it has to:
    1. identify if the file exists
    2. do the following:
    2a. if not exists, copy it to .Mac
    2b. if exist, do some sort comparison - CRC checksum -
    2b1. if checksums match, don't copy
    2b2. if checksums don't match copy it to .Mac
    At least I think that's what going on, I don't have .Mac so that is best I can think of. Perhaps, some Apple SW engineers can jump in here.
    Now, the bad part is iWeb has to (and I'm assuming iWeb uses WebDAV):
    1. go thru each file locally
    2. crawl its way into .Mac (WebDAV is a slow protocol) to find the the counter part.
    3. when it finds a file that matches a client side file, it has to (some how) do checksum on-the-fly across the net work (which is slow and congested)
    #3 is I think where it failed, there are many factors here: 1) networks congestion 2) latency 3) protocol overhead 4) checksum calculation time etc...
    iWeb eventually times out because any/all of the above.
    It's nice that WebDAV can author to the host yada, yada, but it's so SLOOOOOW.
    What I would do is for every publishing, I would build a files and their checksums keep it on the host (or local, must be hidden).
    For subsequence publishing, I would (use a fast protocol like FTP) download this pre-built files/checksums list. Locally, do a full publishing, making checksum comparison, the result is delta changes; upload only those. Build a new files/checksums list upload that too.
    What I mean to say is offload everything that is possible to local machine, bandwidth is PREMIUM!

  • How to I locate and delete duplicate documents and files

    I am trying to clean up my macbook and want to find and delete duplicate documents and files.  How do I do this?

    Finding duplicate files is something a lot of people do.  I do not understand why Apple hasn't built it as part of Smart Folders?  It would have taken a good coder only 1 hour of work to do that!
    Pathetic of Apple, really pathetic!  A prime example of crippleware!

    Still does not work.Took your suggestions a few weeks ago. I am even using a different camera and have bene having corrupt previews.When I export them as .DNG or TIF files they are fine and not out of focus or pixelated but I can't be doing this for every single shoot I do.What's the point of paying for crippleware ?
    I think I will stick with the Canon software for now as LR4 has been nothing but a waste of time on my trial period which is up in a few days. LR3 won't open files from the new Canon G1X but LR4 does but I won't pay for an upgrade if I having issues with the Nikon D7000 and Canon compact.
    Anyone know of ACR will be availbale for the new Canon G1X for LR3 ?

  • Can't rename symlink

    I suspect this is more of just apple turned their products into crippleware instead of a real problem, but I'm tying to put a symlink to my documents folder in my dropbox...  But I can't renamed it.  Why?  And since I WILL rename it, even if I have to hack it, is there an offical way to do this?

    I actually have a solution to the problem.  I had to do it in terminal from the directory I already wanted to be in.  So it can be done, just not from the finder.  Since that is a little akward for a Mac, I still am wondering the correct way to do from the finder.

  • Can't print Word docs

    Just switched from Windows XP to iMac and had all my hard drive docs, pics, etc. transfered. But I can't print any of the docs, only e-mails and pics. And I can't print pages from recently installed Final Draft. Why?
    Also, why is the text on iMac so tiny, and how do I default enlarge it? Thanks.

    ...or, if anyone is a student in your household, like you or a child of yours, then you qualify for the student price of M$ Office, which is like $160, not too ugly for three apps. Plus, you get (or at least you used to get) three licenses. These licenses are meant for non-pecuniary use only, however.
    If you are a federal or state government employee or employed at an educational institution, the Apple webstore gives personal non-pecuniary use discount prices for people that fall into those categories, too (can't quote you a ballpark price estimate though).
    But, NeoOffice has the best price, although I can't attest to true 100% compatibility with M$ Office in all situations. But even if it's not 100% true across-the-board compatibility, the cost verus risk ratio is hard to ignore.
    It would appear that the trialware version of M$ Office is a crippleware product by design.
