Best Linux Distribution for WebLogic 8.1

Which Linux distribution is best for running Weblogic 8.1 on. We are thinking about SuSe?

In terms of supported configurations, you're basically down to Red Hat Enterprise or SUSE Enterprise. If you want to run JRockit, both of those platforms are also officially supported. I don't have a direct comparison to share about running WLS on both OS's, but I'd probably go with SUSE as well. Of course, it shouldn't be too much trouble to set up one of each for evaluation running in your environment with your apps...

Linux distribution for Java?

Does anyone know where I can find a Linux distribution that is packaged solely to run Java? I.e., with all the bells and whistles removed such as text editors, web browsers, etc. but without missing libraries and dependent files. Something that doesn't need to be configured too much after installation.

You mean a "Java-only" set of a Linux-OS based system? Well, if you know Linux really well, you can try your hand a minimal Debian or Slackware install, but you'll still get more than you think you want. Or you can try one of the more "commercial" variants and keep trying to pare it down to the size you think you want. But I'll be you a nickle (US 5 cents) that you'll crash the computer because you eliminated something that is needed.
If you don't know Linux really, really well - you are Out Of Luck. I guarantee you'd remove something that'll cause a crash. OS's are complex things and not for the faint of heart. (I gave up kernel hacking around 1.2)

Yeah, I'd like to see an average Ubuntu user staring at the console of Arch install cd with his/her mouth wide open, wondering where's the mouse cursor.
Ouch. Well at least they're not on Windows. Or MacOS, god forbid.
I came from Ubuntu a few days ago and I'm extremely pleased with Arch, though. A bit of publicity can't hurt. Arch isn't a cult, is it?

Linux distributions supported on Oracle 8i and 9i

Hello,
Can you please provide me with the web page which compiles certification information on Linux distributions for 8i and 9i, I cannot seem to find a page which does such a compilation.
Also, this is to the responder - do you work for Oracle?
Thanks in advance.

Yeah I saw that but...
Which version of Oracle can I install?
I have RH 9.0 basic version ($30.00 from best buy).
I am interested in learning Oracle with Linux for my own personal use at home.
ie
I used to have Oracle Personal 8i on my Windows 98 SE machine. Now I see Oracle Server for RH AS 9.0 (or something) and no Oracle 9i or 8i for RH 9.0 most basic edition.
Sorry... Linux begginner and I forgot my version of RH 9.0.
I am a C++ developer on Windows and use the OCI 7 and 8 wih MSVC 6.0 (at work). I would like to use same OCI wrapper with C at home on Linux.
Thanks

Linux distribution

Hello,
i start to work with Flex Data Service and i also have to
install a server under linux. I wonder if there is a linux
distribution for which we know that FDS works well.
Thanks!

Fedora 20 is newly released and is having troubles while being installed in normal process
so go ahead install it in basic graphics mode which u can find in troubleshooting.
after the installation download and install amd catalyst driver from the official amd site it's a run file so just chmod 777 it and ./execute it in super user mode
you might find the driver installed with errors without restarting the system simply follow the steps
so follow these steps
open up a terminal in super user mode and
$ cd /lib/modules/fglrx
$ vi /build_mod/kcl_acpi.c
              press - esc button and " :set number "
              go to line 999 edit the data type in the line
         from     ((acpi_table_handler)handler)(hdr);      to   ((acpi_tbl_table_handler)handler)(hdr);
         now execute the following commands to remove file by driver execution earlier
$ rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
$ rm /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-fglrx.conf
the next two are optional if in case u execute them please make sure it is lib64 or lib86 basing on which bit os u are using in the /usr folder
$ rm /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/amdxmm.so
$ rm /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/fglrx_drv.so
and now follow these instructions
$ cd /lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod
$ ./make.sh
$ cd..
$ ./make_install_sh
this is it now reboot your system and search for amd catalyst control center and adjust setting so as to maximize your battery...
same steps even with fedora 19 which is what i am on right now
pass on the info around as i got this information after putting together many research points i found out to tackle this problem in goolgle search

Supported Linux Distributions

I am wandering if there is a recommended/preferred Linux distribution for my 450 G1.

Thank you PeerOne for your response.
I have asked the question: What are you doing that Windows itself can't provide for you? Answer: In short. I have found Linux to give me more freedom of flexibility and security. It has also opened a door to technical learning that was not there before.
As for the drivers. That was the primary basis of the posted question. It looks like the distro would be Suse according to the drivers from HP. However I prefer to use Ubuntu and wanted to see if it would be supported. I believe I may be able to use the driver no matter what distribution I go with. I just wanted to see if I could get manufacture confirmation.
Unforunately for your flexibility and security is limited to not being supported by major software or hardware support and will be limited since they will support O/S that can provide them a source of income for R&D for both Windows and Apple. Until Linux become one O/S that can go up against Windows or Apple it will be always be last place. For Servers Unix has more Control and Command overall and that is where it holds sway and has Hardware and Software support for. For Linux having to many distro will insure it never is a Consumer Friendly O/S that consumer can rally behind one O/S that can complete with Windows or Apple market shares. Most everyday Computer users want to turn on and start using their computer and turn off when done not like the savvy computer users they know the ins and out but they are far in the minority compared to the major of computer users. So that is the real story why Linux never fully took off or could compete on the scale of Windows or Apple.

Is there a general strategy/best practices howto for keeping linux current?

We are an hpux shop currently thinking about oracle databases on linux.
If we do that ... well for me at the moment the strategy and tactics for applying software maintenance on a linux server is unclear at the best.
There are some hints from the linux oracle site about using up2date and yum repositories but ( probably missing several good sources ) I don't see a step by step discussion about goals ( how to keep system current and runable and patched appropriately without jeopardizing oracle database stability ) and tactics.
Could someone please point me in the right direction or steer me toward docs I have missed so far?
Thanks John

I do not see any difference in keeping an HPUX and a Linux environment in a healthy state. Oracle Enterprise Linux is not a linux distribution specially designed to host Oracle databases or run Oracle software in general.
As soon as Linux updates/patches are available, they can be downloaded from the Oracle Enterprise Linux up2date/yum server. Which patches to install etc is up to sysadmin and dba,
and which package versions/updates/patches should be installed and which shouldn't with respect to run Oracle software is to be found in port specific Oracle Documentation

Best/Easiest Practice for Distribution of Webhelp files for Fat(ish) Client Application

So another in my long line of questions in trying to change the implementation of the help systems at my new employer.
So, the pressure is to convince the existing guard to toss out the old method and go with a new method... One of the issues has come up for CSH Webhelp (via RH10)...
Apparently, in the old method (where every help topic was it's own CHM - no, I'm not kidding). They kept it that way so that any time a help file was updated, they could just send out that one chm to update that one topic.
Now they are worried that if we switch to webhelp using topics in one single big project that we can't just send out a single updated file any more...
So I'm trying to get ammunition as to how updates to the help can be distributed without it being a big hassle...
We do have small updates that go out about every week, and they are afraid that going to the webhelp (1 project with lots of topics) method will require more time and effort for the techs because they will have to complete the update of a huge help system every time.
One solution we have suggested is that we only update help files on major releases and add any changes to help procedures in the Release Notes or in a separate PDF and also include a note that the help files "will be updated to reflect this change in the XX/2015 XYZ Release).
Does ANYONE have any other ideas of how distribution could be done efficiently so that we don't have to continue this "project per topic" fiasco?
HELP!!! PLEASE!!!!

Amebr - you hit the nail on the head... i want to apologize to everyone for all this mass hysteria...but this has been a freaking rollercoaster... one day they are happy with the plan, the next day they decided they want to complicate it more... So now my job is to find out how viable and how tricky and perhaps how dangerous it will be to send out JUST the files that have been changed. Especially for CSH!
Anyone have any experience with this or have any advice? Peter? I suspect you might know how this might work... are they any pitfalls to watch out for.. I just have this fear of sending out a few files from an entire project... Altho, it appears when I publish, ONLY the files that have been edited in some way show a new date.. that includes non-topic files - so i'm assuming sending all those will keep the TOC, Index, and Search features working properly... as well as incoming and outgoing links from an edited topic?
Another question would be how to handle new images in a project... as the image folder tends to be the largest, i don't want to have to send the entire image folder... Thoughts...???? Advice? Jeff? Peter? Amebr? Bueller? Bueller? Bueller....?
THANKS!Best/Easiest Practice for Distribution of Webhelp files for Fat(ish) Client Application
OH... and Jeff... my apologies for the misnomer of using the term "Fat-ish" client in reference to this... I totally misspoke and should have said Mobile App... but in my mind, any time you have to download something to use it, it's a fat client... sorry! :-/

Oracle support for Weblogic 7 under LINUX

Hi,
Does anyone know what happened to oracle support in weblogic 7.0 for linux platform,
as it seems that the drivers are not included? Are there any discussions on that
topic anywhere?
thanks.
Zlatko

It DOES appear that there is support for WebLogic jDriver for Oracle on Linux:
see http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/certifications/certifications/redhat_linux.html#39532
The strange thing here is that, apparently, the Oracle drivers located @ lib/linux/i686/oci817_8/libweblogicoci38.so
and lib/linux/i686/oci817_8/libweblogicoxa38.so are "Type 2" ODBC drivers which
require an Oracle client to be installed on the WebLogic machine, but Oracle doesn't
support installation of the client on RedHat 7.2, which is required (according
BEA's doc) for installation of WebLogic 7.0. Can someone reconcile this apparent
conflict?

Need to write start up scrits for weblogic admin server on Linux

Hi,
I am new to weblogic i have Installed wls1035 on Linux Created Managed servers,but i want write start up and stop scripts for weblogic admin server please let me know how to write.
My weblogic server is Running on Linux..please help me its very urgent for me.....

Put something like this into a startAll.py file (excluding the ---):
startNodeManager(verbose='false',NodeManagerHome=localWlsHome + '/common/nodemanager',ListenPort=5556,ListenAddress=localhost)
nmConnect('weblogic','password','localhost','5556','domain_name')
nmStart('AdminServer','/path-to-domain-dir')
nmStart('my_server_1','/path-to-domain-dir')
nmStart('my_server_2','/path-to-domain-dir')
nmDisconnect()
exit()
source /path-to-domain-dir/bin/setDomainEnv.sh
$JAVA_HOME/bin/java weblogic.WLST startAll.py
Similar for stop (stopAll.py):
nmConnect('weblogic','password','localhost','5556','domain_name')
nmKill('my_server_1')
nmKill('my_server_2')
nmKill('AdminServer')
stopNodeManager()
exit()
source /path-to-domain-dir/bin/setDomainEnv.sh
$JAVA_HOME/bin/java weblogic.WLST stopAll.py
You might have issues with the Nodemanager having an autogenerated username and password. That can be fixed like this:
In the AdminServer console, click on Lock & Edit
In the AdminServer console, go to <domain> -> Security -> General -> Advanced and update the Node Manager username and password to use the same values as the WebLogic server.
In the AdminServer console, apply the changes.
Start WLST: $WL_HOME/common/bin/wlst.sh
Connect to the AdminServer: connect('weblogic','password','t3://<adminserver-hostname>:<adminserver-port>')
Enroll: nmEnroll('/path-to-domain-dir')
Exit WLST: CTRL^D
You might also look into customizing the nodemanager's property file:
Edit $WL_HOME/common/nodemanager/nodemanager.properties
StopScriptEnabled=true
CrashRecoveryEnabled=true
StartScriptEnabled=true

Platform best suited for Weblogic

Which platform is best suited for Weblogic? Is it Windows or Unix? and why? Please give reasons.

I think that either will work fine so pick the one you are most
comfortable with...

An Idea for a linux distribution

Basically, I had my grandma in mind when I came up with this idea. I thought about entitling this thread "linux distro for grandmas" but decided against it, because it might be offensive to some (I'm pretty sure that somewhere in this great big world there is a grandma who is a great linux admin). Besides, I know a number of people that aren't my grandma that this would be perfect for.
Basically, there is usually a trade off between power and ease of use amongst Linux distributions. On one end of the spectrum you have umm... ubuntu and xandros(?) and on the other you have Linux from Scratch. Anyway, my grandma would have a tough time with even the simplest distributions unless it was set up by a very patient and thoughtful admin.
So my idea is to make a distribution that offers virtually no options to confuse the user. Once the computer is booted, the user is confronted with a graphical login where they simply click (user1). From there, they are presented with a few icons with titles such as "surf the internet", "check email", etc. (maybe this is too patronizing?)
I think that by default, their should be two users, one for the primary user, and one for guests, just to prevent guests from messing things up by screwing with configurations, or looking up pornography. I think that there are programs that convert linux boxes into dummy terminals which might help in such a distribution. (maybe we can make certain config files read only)
This distribution should run on just about anything by default, and be a dream come true for any admin who wants to quickly and easily setup a computer for a friend or loved one (or fellow employees). The installation process should be as simple as clicking "yes you're sure and you understand that by installing you will erase everything on the harddrive". (ok, maybe we could include a few more options than that)
This distribution would be unsuitable for anyone who would want to install or upgrade their own software, or play 3d games etc. It should include support for playing music, surfing the internet, reading email, and all of the basics that many many people want to use their computer for.(without understanding ANYTHING about it) I'd also like to make it unnecessary for end users to know any passwords, or commands period.
No one wants grandma to get hacked, but it would be nice to remotely admin these installations (although ideally, the need for administer's intervention would be absolutely minimal). So I was thinking that in addition to the two end user login accounts, we would need a login account meant exclusively for logging in via ssh, and, of course root. the ssh specific login name and password would have to be chosen during installation, and this would be the only account that is accessible by ssh. This user would be the only member of the wheel group. Root... well root is root.
Anyway, a quick google around didn't reveal any projects that had these goals in mind. I just dreamed this up an hour ago, so it is not even well developed as a concept yet.
Is this interesting to anyone else?

It's not just Grannies that could use this. Just yesterday I had some windows using friends touting the benefits of Xandros Presto. Essentially what you are talking about is a similar concept. I like the idea too, and even better would be if a very few applications could be customised as packages that are available for download as extensions. Rather than every GNU app packaged with scarce descriptions it would be great to select a main tool for each category and document it, make it installable into the chosen GUI, even have pretty little logo graphics for each app. Really user friendly. You'd have to look seriously into the Gui layout of the main selections screen as well as each individual app so that it was uniform across the board. I've always thought it would be better for this type of thing to limit the way things can be done also. Most interfaces give numerous ways of completing the same task. It'd be much simpler if there were only one primary way (even if the others were there but hidden, like keyboard shortcuts), so there is still room for advanced users to speed things up a bit.
Being able to trim it all down to single option answers to basic operational questions would be fantastic. There would also have to be no update manager, or if there was it should be designed to ship updates once a month tops. No kernel updates, no nvidia updates. Just a perfectly working balance of good apps that can't be broken easily.
"Fantastic" would also be a great distro name
The only thing I find wrong with this way of thinking though is that it seem like everyone can create a new distro but no-one seems to work on the interface of the applications, or the total system. i.e. Making a distro you can only use what applications are available and if you choose openoffice for your office suite and there is an issue with it, you can't fix it, therefore you can't control the stability of the system. It can only all come together properly when the applications can be simplified in conjunction with the OS UI and the authors have enough control to fix both the distro, and the applications.
Cheers,
Arkay.

Best Hardware for WebLogic 10.3 Installation?

Hi All,
I would like to know about the best Server on which WebLogic 10.3 can be installed. My client requires an application, which can process 100 million transactions per day. Since I am new to WebLogic and I don't have much idea about the hardware part, your suggestions would help me. Thanks a ton in advance..
Regards,
Anoop.

Depending on your requirements, you can choose any of the h/w from supported configurations. There are many factors that could
influence your decision. Like for an example only IBM JDK is supported on IBM h/w with weblogic server. No of CPU's , RAM and storage
are another factors.
