Diffrence b/w webserver and application server

hi all
i am very confused about actual difference between application server and web server.also tell in witch category tomcat lie. please don't confuse me give more accurate answer

I think we'll have to leave it at that, because "Application Server",
despite a bevy of definitions is still not well-defined. When someone
says they need a "Java App Server", I ask if a "Web App Server" is enough
or if they need all the EJB stuff as well.
In the end, I'd let the Tomcat website speak for itself: http://tomcat.apache.org/
<quote>
Apache Tomcat is the servlet container that is used in the official Reference Implementation for the Java Servlet and JavaServer Pages technologies.
Apache Tomcat powers numerous large-scale, mission-critical web applications across a diverse range of industries and organizations.
</quote>
Nowhere on that page is the phrase "Application Server" used (versus
the weaker web applications).

Difference between webserver and Application server

Is there any way to stop the webserver but not the application server.
Do they run on the same port? How is that possible?

What is the diffrence between sap events and application events

Hi all,
what is the diffrence between sap events and application events.Can any one tell me with examples.
regards,

Hi,
Look at this,
System Events (Default)
The event is passed to the application server, but does not trigger the PAI. If you have registered an event handler method in your ABAP program for the event (using the SET HANDLER statement), this method is executed on the application server.
Within the event handler method, you can use the static method SET_NEW_OK_CODE of the global class CL_GUI_CFW to set a function code and trigger the PAI event yourself. After the PAI has been processed, the PBO event of the next screen is triggered.
The advantage of using this technique is that the event handler method is executed automatically and there are no conflicts with the automatic input checks associated with the screen. The disadvantage is that the contents of the screen fields are not transported to the program, which means that obsolete values could appear on the next screen. You can work around this by using the SET_NEW_OK_CODE method to trigger field transport and the PAI event after the event handler has finished.
Application Events
The event is passed to the application server, and triggers the PAI. The function code that you pass contains an internal identifier. You do not have to evaluate this in your ABAP program. Instead, if you want to handle the event, you must include a method call in a PAI dialog module for the static method DISPATCH of the global class CL_GUI_CFW. If you have defined an event handler method in your ABAP program for the event (using the SET HANDLER statement), the DISPATCH method calls it. After the event handler has been processed, control returns to the PAI event after the DISPATCH statement and PAI processing continues.
The advantage of this is that you can specify yourself the point at which the event is handled, and the contents of the screen fields are transported to the application server beforehand. The disadvantage is that this kind of event handling can lead to conflicts with the automatic input checks on the screen, causing events to be lost.
Hope u understood.
Thanks&Regards,

How to have one centeral management console for DB and Application server?

Hi
Thank you for reading my post
I read in several places that ORACLE provide facilitis that help developers to have one centeral console to manage Application server / Database and what ever oracle products.
I want to know that, when i have Oracle 10g r2 and Application server 10.1.3.1 installed, how i can use that centeral management console?
is it some other application that i should install ?
or it is just some more configuration?
thanks

What you are looking for is called Grid Control.
You will need the Grid Control Agent installed on each server that has products from Oracle's technology stack installed (database, web server, app server, etc). You will also need install the Grid Control software and repository.
You can download Grid Control from the following link:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/oem/index.html

Compatibility between Oracle Developer suit and application server

Hello
We are going to user oracle 10 to develop and deploy our application.
The tool that we were going to use are
Developer Suite 10g Release 2 (10.1.2) and
Oracle Application Server 10g Release 3 (10.1.3.2.0)
But i need to know whether this are compatible
Where can I find any documentation related to compatibilities between developer suit and application server ?
May thanks in advance

Hi Ana,
Compatible version of IAS is
10g Release 2 (10.1.2) or 10g Release 2 (10.1.2) with patch 1(10.1.2.1.0)
Also if u are using only forms and reports services there is a forms and reports standalone version is available. And hence u dont need to install infrastructre.
And this is a very compact product.
Even if you use forms 9i /developer suite 9i to develop the forms, when u compile them on IAS, it gets upgraded. There is not much diff between forms 9i and 10g

Starting and stopping 9ias Infrastructure and Application Server

I have Oracle9ias R2 Infrastucture and Application running on one machine (bad idea - I know) on Windows 2000. I had to restart the system and of course all the different instances from Infrastructure and Application Server started in the wrong order and now nothing operates at all. (It was fine yesterday - really, it was).
Could someone please give me a rough guideline on how to start these services, or instances in the right order.
Much obliged
William

Sir,
Can you help me to do the installation of 9ias rel. 2.
I installaed 9ias infrastructure on separate m/c.
But unable to do single sign-on on 9ias server side.

ARCHITECTURE OF SAP R/3 AND APPLICATION SERVER AND DATABASE SERVER IN ABAP

ARCHITECTURE OF SAP R/3 AND APPLICATION SERVER AND DATABASE SERVER IN ABAP?
PLEASE EXPLAIN

hi
Presentation Server
It is actually a program named sapgui.exe.
It usually installed in users workstation.
The interface accepts the input from the user in the form of keystrokes, mouse-clicks, and function keys, and sends these requests to the application server.
It receives and displays the result from the application server.
Application Server
An application server is a set of executables that collectively interpret the the ABAP/4 programs.
Each application server has a profile called application server profile, that specifies its characteristics when it starts up and while it is running. It specifies:
1. Number of processes and its types.
2.Amount of memory each process may use.
3. Length of time a user is inactive before being automatically logged off.
If your ABAP/4 program requests information from the database, the application server will format the request and send it to the database server
Database Server
The database server is a set of executables that accepts database requests from the application server.
These requests are passed on to the RDBMS (Relation Database Management System).
The RDBMS sends the data back to the application server.
The RDBMS may run on database servers computer or may be installed on its own computer.
The components of application server are dispatcher, dispatcher queue, work process.
All requests that come in from presentation servers are directed first to the dispatcher.
The dispatcher writes them to the dispatcher queue.
The dispatcher pulls the requests from the queue on a first-in, first-out basis.
Each request is then allocated to the first available work process.
A work process handles one request at a time.
The work process needs two memory areas, the user context and the roll area.
The user context is a memory area that contains the information about the user.
The roll area is a memory area that contains about the program execution.
User Context
User context is a memory area that contains the characteristics of a user that is logged on the R/3 system.
1)It holds, users current settings.
2. The users authorizations.
3. The names of the programs the user is currently running.
When a user logs on, the user context is allocated for that logon. When logs off, it is freed.
Roll Area 
A roll area is a memory that is allocated by a work process for an instance of a program.
It holds the information needed by R/3 about the program execution, such as: 1. The values of the variables
2. The dynamic memory allocations
3. The current program pointer.
Each time a user starts a program, a roll area is created for that instance of the program.
If two users are using the same program at the same time, two roll areas will exist-one for each user.
The roll area is freed when the program ends.
Both roll area and the user context play an important roll in dialog processing
pls reward points dor useful ans

New Blog for SOA and Application server,BPEL

Hi Everyone,
I have created a New Blog for SOA and Application server and BPEL and i would like everyone to have a look at it and give me some comments on it like what is the other information i can keep which can help us all etc....
You can visit it at http://oraclefusionmiddleware.blogspot.com

Oracle Application Server consists of Oracle HTTP and OC4J servers which deploys J2EE-based applications.
Integration server manages all communication, process interactions, Data Transactions among different systems and applications. Oracle integration server consists of all the SOA elements (BPEL, ESB, Business Rules, and OWSM)
when you want to deploy Java applications then you will deploy to Application Server.When you want to deploy BPEL,ESB Process you will use integraion server(BPEL Server,ESB Server).
Integration server is just the web server which connects to application server which helps in administrating and managing different applications as a whole

Hi there
The difference I know is the application servers provides the containers for the applications to run which is not provided by the web servers.
For example the containers can be an EJB container or JSP container etc

Hey Ravi,
After some reasearch and going through your posts, i am now able to atleast go to the first jsp page of the application.like thorugh the below link
http://192.168.206.128:8080/MyWebApp/First.jsp
But after reaching this page when i start navigating to get through a servlet then it says page is on available on this server. please help me what i need now..
i am also copying the httpd.conf file below:-
# This is the main Apache HTTP server configuration file. It contains the
# configuration directives that give the server its instructions.

# consult the online docs. You have been warned.
# Configuration and logfile names: If the filenames you specify for many
# of the server's control files begin with "/" (or "drive:/" for Win32), the
# server will use that explicit path. If the filenames do not begin
# with "/", the value of ServerRoot is prepended -- so "logs/foo_log"
# with ServerRoot set to "/usr/local/apache2" will be interpreted by the
# server as "/usr/local/apache2/logs/foo_log".
# ServerRoot: The top of the directory tree under which the server's
# configuration, error, and log files are kept.
# Do not add a slash at the end of the directory path. If you point
# ServerRoot at a non-local disk, be sure to point the LockFile directive
# at a local disk. If you wish to share the same ServerRoot for multiple
# httpd daemons, you will need to change at least LockFile and PidFile.

thanks for your help
If you want send me a mail, or talk with messenger or
likeI would in that case try to contact Sun. The error message seems a bit odd. The installation is trying to execute some command, tool or applications which can't be found by the OS. The error indicates that that command has a very odd name.

"MS Wants us to use powershell AND installation media AND be connected to the internet AND not have a WSUS server... "
Don't quite understand the rant, but that's okay.
I look as connectivity to the internet as a last resort - I don't know that I have ever used it and my labs tend to be completely isolated from the internet. Connectivity to the internet is not a requirement if you are using the -Source parameter.
Connectivity to the internet is in lieu of the -Source parameter. The installation will first check if the files are local - which they are for most cases as they are in the local SXS directory. If for whatever reason, e.g. they have
been deleted, the installation will look for an alternate location. If a -Source parameter is specified, it will look there. If none is specified, it looks to the internet.
If you plan on using the -Source parameter, it has to point to something and installation media is handy. But whenever I have needed it (the only time I have needed it is for .NET 3.5/2.0) I sometimes I use the media. Sometimes I have simply
copied the SXS directory from the media and used it without the rest of the media.
A WSUS server has absolutely nothing to do with this. A WSUS server does not provide 'connection' to the internet for the machine on which you are trying to install. Connection to the internet means that you can browse the internet from the machine.
The post that aperelli pointed you to did have a reply that may be germane. You don't mention if this is a core installation or a full installation. One of the options you have chosen in not valid on a core installation. Since we don't
know what your environment is, this is a shot in the dark.
Another point is that there could be some sort of conflict of options chosen. My personal preference would be to break the installation into smaller steps - maybe even a single feature per PowerShell cmdlet. I don't think you will see any difference
in the amount of time it takes. Then, if there is some sort of an issue, you would know exactly which feature is creating it.

Content-type: application/xml and Application server 9

I have a web service running on Application server 9, implemented using netbeans and JAX-WS.
When a client sends a request to it with:
Content-type: application/xml
the request is rejected because the server does not recognise the mime type.
Specifically, the response is:
HTTP/1.1 415 Unsupported Media Type
X-Powered-By: Servlet/2.5
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1
Date: Fri, 01 Sep 2006 14:49:04 GMT
Server: Sun Java System Application Server Platform Edition 9.0
Connection: close
Everything works fine when the request has:
Content-type: text/xml
Is there a way to make my web service accept content type of 'application/xml'?

I have fixed this for myself, i.e. decompile, replace in jar.
My problem was that most tools define the encoding but code was simply testing
if( contentType.equalsIgnoreCase( "text/xml" ) )
so sending xml from other tools that send contentType
"text/xml;encoding=UTF-8" or some such, like soap tools, would mean no XML was seen.
Is the proper source available for XSQL?
