Controlling your web applications starting order

Hello,
Is there a way to control the start up order of the web applications deployed on tomcat? Right now Tomcat is starting them alphabetically, but I want to change that order.
Regards,
Erwin.

You'll probably get better answers on the Tomcat forums. This forum deals with the J2EE SDK, which uses the Sun Java System Application Server.

How to detect Edit controls on web application in Firefox?

I'm making a Coded UI Test with VS 2012 Update 4 for testing a web application.
On one of the web pages are two buttons for generating new entries.
These buttons are looking like that:
    <section class="well well-lg" id="sectionAddVorbe">
        <fieldset id="fieldsetAddVorbe" name="fieldsetAddVorbe">
            <legend translate="bewerbung.lebenslauf.Titel"></legend>
            <div class="form-group" id="fgAddVorbe">
                <button type="button" id="addVorbe" name="addVorbe" class="btn btn-default" ng-click="vm.addVorbeschaeftigung()">
                    <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-plus" aria-hidden="true"></span>
                    <span translate="global.EintragHinzufuegen" id="spanAddVorbe"></span>
                </button>
            </div>
        </fieldset>
    </section>
    <section class="well well-lg" id="sectionAddSkills">
        <fieldset id="fieldsetAddSkills" name="fieldsetAddSkills">
            <legend translate="bewerbung.skills.Titel"></legend>
            <p translate="bewerbung.skills.Erklaerung"></p>
            <div class="form-group" id="fgAddSkill">
                <button type="button" id="addSkill" name="addSkill" class="btn btn-default" ng-click="vm.addSkill()">
                    <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-plus" aria-hidden="true"></span>
                    <span translate="global.EintragHinzufuegen" id="spanAddSkill"></span>
                </button>
            </div>
        </fieldset>
    </section>
Because there was a leak with IDs and names i added these, whereever it was necessary.
Before the adding of the IDs and names Coded UI detected the buttons just by the text (defined by global.EintragHinzufuegen), so once one of the buttons was detected the other one couldn't be added as a seperate control to the UI-controllist of UIMap.test.
Internet Explorer just needs the ID and name in the button-tag, to detect the two buttons as different controls - in that case as Pane controls.
But when i make the same test with Firefox and click on the buttons while recording the test, the buttons are still detected by the text (global.EintragHinzufuegen).
So Coded UI registers a mouseclick on the Edit control (which contains the text) and in the controlslist of UIMap.test a hierarchy of Button and Edit is added.
Which changes have to be done in the HTML-code to make Coded UI detect the controls correctly while recording the test with Firefox?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Patrick Pirzer,
>>Which changes have to be done in the HTML-code to make Coded UI detect the controls correctly while recording the test with Firefox?
Just to make this issue clearly, did you use this extension tool "Selenium components for Coded UI Cross Browser Testing"?
To find the controls, the coded UI test use the unique properties as the search properties, so if there are controls which have the same properties, I suggest you not use them as the search properties. Or you could custom a coded UI test with code or
use unique properties as the search properties.

I have had the same issue while using BEA Weblogic behind a heavy duty firewall for a large company. What we did was made use of the IIS Proxy DLL and routed all the incoming requests from port 80 on IIS to a specified port on the BEA Weblogic.
To add more complexity to this, the request on port 80 to IIS was being filtered from port 443 from the corporate firewalls.
The user accessed the site from "https" which was routed to port 80 as we were using IIS as the Web Server(Gosh.. I think why we did that), the requests were then in turn funneled to Weblogic to a different port. So the user was unawrae as to where the exact processing is happening. He assumed that it was all good on port 443.
Hope this helps to some extent.

Adjust Quicktime Volume Control when the application starts

3Apr07
I have a problem streaming program. Microsoft stopped supporting Widows Media Player for the Mac.
Micosoft has a application FLIP4MAC-MWV which will either open a window in Safari or has the option of opening a window in Quicktime.
My problem is: The volume level in Quicktime is too high when the stream begins. I use Wiretap Pro to record radio streams while I am at work. The default high volume distorts the recording.
I have tried and tried again to change the default volume level to a middle level, but the stream starts at max volume. How do I change that?
I also have the same problem with the Safari window level.
Can anyone tell me how to adjust the default volume in Quicktime and Safari?
Thank you for reading this post and greater thanks for any recommendations.
Regards,
Craig H. Henden

Thank you for you help. I actually don't use Quicktime-formated files or steams. I used to use Windows Media Player until the Wiretap Pro custormer support recommended I use Flip4Mac WMV to convert Media Player streams to Quicktime compatible. However, the volume is too high.
I did try adjusting the Midi Sound controller. It did not have the effect when Quicktime starts-up.
Most of the time I record using Windows Media Player or Flip4Mac, I am not home to adjust the volume.
I will try adjusting the Midi control again. I wish Flip4Mac converted Media Player formated streams to Itunes. Wiretap pro works very well with itunes.

Running a control on application start up

Hi,
I am using Weblogic workshop with the netui and controls framework.
Does anyone know if there is a way to be able to access a control when the application starts. I need to initialise some static data on application startup.
Normally I would just use a struts plugin to run some init routine, but because we are using DBControls to access the database I can't do this because I am unable to access controls from a POJO.
Thanks for your help,
Adrian

Well two ideas (if ur on windows) u could try are -
one, if you had a class file you could simply create a
batch file on windows that says java <class> and then
put that batch file in your startup so that the class
is run at startup or else you could think of modifying
the registry keys on windows to run this class at
startup - whichever works for you.Or you could just jar the program up, adding a Main-Class indicator in the manifest, and then add a shortcut to the jar to the startup folder, as someone else stated. Theres little need to go messing around with DOS batch in modern windows.

Facing Problem while adding Azure Project to existing C# web application

Hi,
I have a web application with 5 projects under one Solution. I want to publish this web application on Windows Azure, for that I have tried to add Windows Azure Cloud Service Project but this option is not appear in option list. But when I create new web
application add Windows Azure Cloud Service Project option appeared. I didn't understand why this happened. I have also tried to migrate old code to new project but having error
" The type or namespace name 'DataAnnotations' does not exist in the namespace 'System.ComponentModel' (are you missing an assembly reference?)"
If I add this dll then more than 18000 error occures like control not found(The name 'lnkbtnNew' does not exist in the current context).
Please help me out, I am struggling since couple of days.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Please try the following steps, see if it helps.
1. create new azure cloud service project (it is better to choose the same version of .netframework with your web application );
2. right click the solution, add your web application as Existing Project
3. Right click on the “Roles” node in the Cloud Service project and select “Add | Web Role Project in solution…”
Please try to set the “Copy Local” to “True” in order to avoid assembly missing issue, see more at:

Passing Parameters via Post Method from Webdynpro Java to a web application

Hello Experts,
I want to pass few parameters from a web dynpro application to an external web application.
In order to achieve this, I am referring to the below thread:
HTTP Post
As mentioned in the thread, I am trying to create an additional Suspend Plug parameter (besides 'Url' of type String) with name 'postParams' and of type Map.
But when I build my DC, I am getting the same error which most of the people in the thread have mentioned:
Controller XXXCompInterfaceView [Suspend]: Outbound plug (of type 'Suspend') 'Suspend' may have at most two parameters: 'Url' of type 'string' and 'postParams' of type 'Map'.
I am using SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio Version: 7.01.00
Kindly suggest if this is the NWDS version issue or is it something else that I am missing out.
Also, if it is the NWDS version issue please let me know the NWDS version that I can use to avoid this error.
Any other suggestion/alternative approach to pass the parameters via POST method from webdynpro java to an external web application apart from the one which is mentioned in the above thread is most welcome.
Thanks & Regards,
Anurag

Hi,
This is purely a java approach, even you can try this for your requirement.
There are two types of http calls synchronous call or Asynchronous call. So you have to choose the way to pass parameters in post method based on the http call.
if it is synchronous means, collect all the values from users/parameters using UI element eg: form and pass all the values via form to the next page is nothing but your web application url.
If it is Asynchronous means, write a http client in java and integrate the same with your custom code and you can find an option for sending parameters in post method.
here you go and find the way to implement Asynchronous scenario,

Hi Michael,
I am having the same problem. can you provide more information. I was not
able to find out the answer in the servlet 2.2 specification.

How to distribute html component between different web applications?

Hello. I have a project which consists of several modules. Each module is a separate web-application which can be deployed on a separate application server. All modules must have one menu. The problem is how to implement the menu.
It would be good to maintain it as a separate project and to distribute it between modules as a jar archive. I have an idea to create a custom tag library which will generate and insert html code where it is necessary. But modules can look different, they can use jsf, richfaces or jsp for the page rendering and the menu must suit the page. So I think that the data and the rendering mechanism should be separated somehow.
Thanks.

Starting with Servlet Spec 2.3 (I think) the push has been towards complete web applications; even if it means duplicate files in each (disc space is exponentially cheaper than it was a decade ago).
The easiest way to manage duplicate files is to keep a single copy for development and use build tools like ANT, Maven, etc.. to assemble your web applications at build time.

ADF Web applications give error when parent is set to "orabpel"

Hi all,
i use the application server 10.1.3.1 of the SOA 10.1.3,
i try to deploy an ADF web application that uses the BPEL APIs,
in the server.xml, i set the application parent to 'orabpel',
when i start the application by launching the first jspx page i got the following error
that i found in the 'global-application.log':
07/01/04 08:34:30.750 defaultWebApp: JspServlet: unable to dispatch to
requested page: Exception:java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\product\10.1.3.1
\OracleAS_1\j2ee\home\default-web-app\TAFFirstPage-ViewController-context-
root\faces\loginPage.jspx (The system cannot find the path specified)
i tried to set the application parent to 'default' again and added the bpel apis libs (bpm-services.jar, bpm-infra.jar and orabpel.jar) to the applib folder in j2ee/home and now all the adf web applications deployed to the server give the same error.
i have a normal web application with jsps pages (not jspx) with parent set to orabpel and it's working great.
please i am stuck on this it's been 2 days does anybody have any clue?
thanks

Hi ,
Firstly, let’s verify the followings:
Please create a new library at the site, then add three managed columns into it, test again, compare the result.
Whether this issue occurred in other sites with the same site collection.
Please test in another site collection, check if this issue occurs.
In addition, please make sure Managed Metadata web service is started in Mange services on server.
And also make sure the managed metadata service is connected to the web application that you used as CA->Application management->manage web application->your web application->Service Connections.

Web application restarts when JSP or .class files on disk change

Hello,
I am deploying a Spring enabled web application into WLS 12 using IntelliJ11.
I am building an exploded war in a target directory and have my WLS domain's config.xml set up to pick up the application from that directory directly. I am not using a staging approach.
The application starts up fine in debug mode in IntelliJ 11. I am able to make changes to Java classes, hit Ctrl+F9 to "Make the Project" and changed Java classes get reloaded and I see the changes I have made.
All this happens without WLS reloading the web application, which is as it should be.
When I try to make changes to JSPs, I start seeing a different behavior. This is how I'm changing my JSPs:
1) I edit the file in IntelliJ.
2) I hit Ctrl+F9....nothing happens, I don't see my changes in the JSP, I don't see any web application restarts. This is because with a Ctrl+F9, IntelliJ does not update the JSP in the target directory.
3) When I hit Ctrl+F10 instead, i.e. "Update application", IntelliJ presents me with a choice to "Update resources", "Update classes & resources", "redeploy", "restart the server".
I choose "Update resources"
When I do this, I see on the file system that IntelliJ has changed the JSP in the target directory. As it should. WLS is also using this directory, so it should see the changed JSP and recompile and show me my changes.
Now when I access the application, I see varying behavior.
Sometimes I see my JSP changes just fine and sometimes instead of seeing my changes, my entire web application starts shutting down and attempts to restart. Note, I said the web application and not the WLS server.
It's almost as if I've hit a Redeploy.
I have disabled "Fast Swap", as I cannot get my Spring application context to load when this is enabled. So, I'm just using Hot Swap.
Why is WLS restarting my web application once in a while when my JSPs change?
And this is not restricted to JSP files only. If I choose the option to "Update classes & resources", any Java classes I've changed get updated on the disk in the target directory. Now WLS once in a while decides that it needs to restart my web application. I can get away with hitting Ctrl+F9, which does not update the .class on the disk and only in the JVM, and see my changes.
But I have no such option for JSPs. So hot swap essentially is erratic for JSPs in my deployment in WLS 12.

There is a workaround for this. Not pretty, but it works for me.
Instead of having IntelliJ update the exploded war when I do a Make (Ctrl+F9), I tell IntelliJ to NOT do any updates to the artifact on the disk.
That is, just compile. As explained before, that works for changes to Java classes. IntelliJ/Java does a hot swap in memory, so your Java changes are seen.
Now for JSPs. Write an ant target that copies the JSPs into the deployed exploded war.
For some reason, when ant does the copying, WLS doesn't freak out and decide to restart the web application. I have no idea why. I did a directory compare when IntelliJ did the copying, and the only thing that had changed was the JSP I had modified.
Anyways that's one solution.
The other is, as my colleague tested out, run in Production mode, and have the jsp reload check parameter set to 0, which means check the JSPs always. This is needed because in Production mode, -1 is the default value, which means never check for JSP changes.

Binary file support for web application in 10.3?

There is such paragraph in Release notes for Flash Player 10.3:
Binary file support
Add more power to your web application with direct byte access to binary data. Control and access data in new ways, such as adding support for new file and data types or manipulating sound data in real time to create new sound effects.
Does anyone know what do they mean by this exactly?

Real programmers do it in binary!! ;-)

Calling IPC from a third party web application

ISA, IPC experts,
We have CRM 4.0 with IPC 4.0. We are developing an in house web application in jsp/java for dealer orders. Our office staff uses CRM Online for Order Entry.
We want to use the existing pricing procedures in the IPC to derive the pricing for the web project so our user can see the price for a given product prior to placing the order in CRM.
How can we call IPC from a third party order software in java? prefereably without installing a standalone IPC (heard that IPC 5.0 may not support standalone mode)?
Can you help us with ways to call the IPC from our in house web application, or point us to some documentation about the ipc client layer?
Your help in this regard is highly appreciated.
Yanhui Yu

Hi Yanjui,
if you have a CRM installation, an IPC is part of that installation. Connect your web application to that IPC. The IPC comes with its own web applications, which base on a package com.sap.spc.remote.client.object. These are APIs that you might consider using in your web application. The package should be documented with the API docs that come with your web apps, but I'm not sure about how this is delivered (sorry).
Concerning upgradability to CRM 5.0: The IPC there does not come as its own server anymore, but offers ABAP RFC functions that are actually implemented in Java using new Netweaver technology. The 5.0 RFCs are similar, but not identical to the old IPC commands / RFCs, so an upgrade is no problem, but some changes are required. The same applies for com.sap.spc.remote.client.object, which has changed a bit as a result of the changes in the IPC APIs below.
Alternatively to using com.sap.spc.remote.client.object, you might also try to directly call the RFC functions of the IPC server. Finding out what the various parameters that you have to pass do is not too tricky:
- in your IPC installation, a file <ipc>/lib/properties/servercommands.xml contains all RFCs that the IPC knows.
- for the RFC you want to use check the respective javaname in that file.
- for that javaname check class com.sap.spc.remote.server.command.<javaname> in the javadoc API Documentation that is part of your IPC installation. This will contain rather technical details on how to call the RFCs.
Please be aware that it's not an easy job providing all the data that IPC needs to do pricing.
I would recommend using the E-Commerce application which has done this job for you already.
Best regards,
Karlheinz
