Changing Weblogic Server properties without restarting Weblogic Server

I have an application that requires a few things to be set at the start of the
Weblogic server (email addresses,criteria settings, etc.). These are contained
in a properties file that is referenced in the Weblogic properties file. The
problem is when I want to make a change in the application property file (change
an email address, increment a criteria) I have to "reboot" the Weblogic server.
These defeats the whole purpose of property files. Is there anyway to get Weblogic
to "recache" the properties files without a Weblogic server "reboot"?
Thanks,
Bryan

I very much doubt that you would be able to refresh the WebLogic properties
file at run-time (is this WebLogic 5.1 or 6.0 you are talking a about?).
If you want to be able to update properties run-time (as opposed to
boot-time) then don't use WebLogic's property file - use either your own
properties file or store the properties elsewhere such as in the database or
in JNDI. You will of course have to implement your own refresh algorithm.
If you are using EJBs then a simple READ-ONLY entity bean with a refresh
period of a few seconds may suffice.

How to modify JSP on Weblogic without restarting a server

Hello,
Could someone explain how to modify JSP on Weblogic without restarting a server?
We use WL 10.2.
I search and modify required jsp on a server, but nothing happens on a Web Browser. I run in Development mode.
Please advice,
Thanks,
Yuri

Hi Yuri,
As you are in Development mode you have one options to use the Auto Deploy folder which can be found in the following path (domain_name/autodeploy).
More information on Auto Deployment check the below link:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11035_01/wls100/deployment/autodeploy.html#wp1021626
Other option is to use the following parameter "*page-check-seconds*" in your weblogic.xml file
For more information check out the below link

Modify JSP file without restarting the server

Hi guys,
I need to do small change in the JSP in the production.
How can I do it without restarting the server?
I have deployed the application as an EAR file.
I use WLP8.1 SP3
IS there any way?
Ananth

You can try expanding (use jar util) that ear into temp dir, then make the change, use jar util again to create the ear. try redepolying it. Make sure change the jsp recheck and hit that page. see if it works. Incase if it works put the jsp recheck back to -1.
Note: This is just an idea, I never done.
Thanks

Programming Weblogic with jmx without using weblogic api?

Hi,
I want to know if it is possible to program weblogic management service without
using weblogic api but just rely on standard JMX interface and methods.
Currently, I am relying on weblogic api weblogic.jndi.Environment and weblogic.management.MBeanHome
interface to get the context and access the MBean Server subsystem. Can I find
the equivalent using jmx?
My code is as follows:
Environment env = new Environment();
env.setProviderUrl(url);
env.setSecurityPrincipal(username);
env.setSecurityCredentials(password);
Context ctx = env.getInitialContext();
MBeanHome home = (MBeanHome) ctx.lookup(MBeanHome.ADMIN_JNDI_NAME);
String domain = home.getDomainName();
homeServer = home.getMBeanServer();
Thank you.

Hi Ryan,
I have looked through the documentation.
It told me that I need to use weblogic.management.MBeanHome interface to get MBeanHome
and from there then I can only use jmx interface.
I presume it is not possible not to use weblogic.jar if I want to establish the
initial connection with Weblogic server?
Thanks.

Can dw cs3 connect directly to sql server database without a testing server?

I'm new to dreamweaver but have used script tools that link
directly to my sql server database.
Not in dw, so far. As of this early stage, I don't have or
want to use a web server, and it's blocking me
without one. I just want to prototype without a testing
server, directly to my database. And while I'll try php
later, I didn't want to have to get into it or cold fusion,
etc. right away.
Can dw connect directly to sql server database without a
testing server?
I'm running XP sp 3 at this point, and don't see IIS. There's
probably some security issues
I'll have to tangle with. The goal is for my website to end
up on the company intRAnet, not the www.
fwiw, I can Build in Data Link Properties and get a
successful test to my sql server database via
Microsoft Data Link, but once I go back and try the test in
OLE DB Connection it balks on the testing server,
as I don't have one locally or otherwise. Isn't there a way
to link to db without a testing server?
Thanks for any insights.

Yes, you can. However, Dreamweaver's PHP server behaviors
work only with
MySQL. To connect to any other database, you need to hand
code
everything yourself.

How to make changes effect in log4j.xml without restarting weblogic server

Hi ,
I have successfully configured log4j in my weblogic server 8.1.
Everytime i made a change in log4j.xml i need to restart the server
is there any configuration or parameter to set without restarting server??
Thanks in advance,
CK

I don't think you need to restart the server, atleast I never needed to when making changes to jsp pages. You only need to restart when you make changes to java classes. Some might argue jsp is converted to servlet which is a java class.....
Try refreshing the page when you make any changes. This works for me, if it doesn't work try turning reloadable="true" in your context path in tomcat's server.xml

Hi Robert,
Thank you for your answer. I´m trying to deploy new webapplications at the

reserves Weblogic a great amount of memory for each null entry, even when

Update server classes without restarting sun one web server 6.1

hi,
I'm facing a problem in updating server classes on sun one web server 6.1. i did not deploy any application and we are using simple jdbc+jsp approach.i write a class for db connections and now whenever i made some changes in it i must have to restart web server for changes to take effect. I also delete class files from classcache folder but it doesn't work.
my class is placed on /opt/ and this path is also placed in web server class paths.
i do not want to restart web server again and again. can some one tell me how to solve this problem.
Regards,
Kashif.

if you just change your jsp files, you don't need to restart WebServer. WS will automatically recompile your jsps when it find the changes.
You may also use reconfig command to reload server.

How do I turn on -XverboseTimeStamp without restarting the server?

The execute method on the getDiagnosticCommand seems pretty handy for invoking things programatically. I can turn on verbose GC with this command, but how can I turn on the verbose timestamps so I know when the gc occured (without restarting)?
Thanks

Try the "decorations" parameter to the "verbosity" command. Something like this:
bq. verbosity change=memory=info decorations=timestamp
See [http://e-docs.bea.com/jrockit/jrdocs/refman/optionX.html#wp1001095] for possible decorations.

After all the Errors, When I am restarting the SQL Server its working correctly.
Whats the problem it is clearing itself after restarting of SQL Server. Why ?. I can't find anything regarding this in SQL Server .

Can you suggest me a solution for this issue. Every time i don't want to restart SQL Server Services as it effects other jobs and Processes.
Thank you.

Cannot install exchange server 2010 without small business server 2011

we purchased Windows Small Business server 2011 for one of our servers and installed the software and setup exchange server for the office. We had some 3rd party software that would not work with small business server so we had to install windows
2008 r2 server. we still need exchange server 2010. Is there anyway to install without small business server? When I entered the key in exchange server for the small business server it is saying that it is an invalid key. We have a
genuine version of windows small business server. is it all or nothing for the software. Thanks

SBS is indeed all or nothing. Breaking apart the individual components is not allowed. That includes exchange. If you want exchange without SBS, you'll need to buy exchange separately and exchange CALs. If you only have SBS CALs and aren't going to run
SBS, you'll need Windows CALs as well.

Can firefox change audio device preference without restarting?

I use my PC as a home theatre as well as for day to day usage, and have multiple audio devices.
For most usage, I route the sound through on-board audio (realtek) but for watching movies, I run it through the ATI HDMI output to the TV.
Currently, in order to watch a movie, I have to shut down Firefox, change windows prefered audio device, then restart Firefox.
Can I change the device preferences somehow within Firefox without restarting it?

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
