Evaluating boot start applications

Hi,
I have a Macbook 5.1 with 10.5.8, 2.4Ghz Core 2 with 2GB and experiencing extremely long start-up times. I previously posted a message on performance, but I'm hoping I'll receive more of a response with a more narrow focus. I'm trying to tune this for a friend of mine.
Is there something I can do to specifically monitor the applications run at system start-up?
Even after the system boots, the mouse cursor is just the spinning wheel for at least seven minutes afterwards. In the meantime, the system is pretty muich unusable.
How can I determine what applications/processes are causing this delay?
I'd like to be able to run the System Monitor, but it won't let me start it until the system is more responsive.
Thanks for any ideas.

Hello gosssamer
Start with the articles below to troubleshoot issues with the slow startup. You may want to verify the hard drive to make sure that there are no issues with it. If you want to see the process that are running when you boot up just hold Command and V. Another thing to keep in mind is to make sure that you are backed up and have a safe copy of your data so you will not loose anything during your troubleshooting.

Java Web Start application failing on my user account

Hi All,
I've been tearing my hair out over this for a while and haven't been able to get anywhere wiht it. I've finally cracked and decided to post a plea for help in here.
Basically, I have a web start application that will not start under my user profile but will under a new account I created. If I try and start it from the terminal with javaws I get "Bus Error" and that's all. Double clicking it gives me a crash dialoge box and the details can be seen here:
http://pastebin.com/m77b1111f
As I said before, running it in the other account works fine as does "sudo javaws /path/to/app.jnlp" but I really don't want to have to do that every single time.
I've deleted the JavaCache folder as well as any ~/Library/Preferences/java.plist all without any joy. Also, I'd like to add that there are a number of other Web Start apps that run without any problems.
Any ideas?

Thing is, if there was corruption of something that was system wide, it wouldn't work under a different profile, right?
Unpredictable as to how lomg it would work on a new account.
Is this usually the case for a safe boot?
Yes, it runs fsck_hfs -fy on the whole drive, dumps several caches & so on, the next boot will also take longer than usual as it rebuilds caches & so on.

Starting application server from IDE

I'm trying to start the application server from an evaluation copy of
Visual Cafe 4.5 Enterprise Edition. When I choose Project -> Start
Application Server from the menu, a window briefly opens with "Start
Application Server" as its title and a logo of a spinning W. After
the W spins about one time the window close, with no error message
reported.
I would like to know what I should do in order to start the
application server (A developer's license of WebLogic is included)
from the IDE.

Look at the weblogic.log file
(%BEA_HOME%\wlserver6.0\config\mydomain\logs\weblogic.log) to see if
there are any error messages printed there. If not, it is probably a
license issue in that the license.bea file must be in the CLASSPATH used
to start the app server.

Security Evaluation of Oracle Application Server

Are there any published documents on security evaluation of Oracle Application Server?
Is it secure as a tool against some attacks, for example, are following vulnerabilities when applicable to the server dealt with or should be handled by application? :
failure to restrict url access,
broken authentication and session management
insecure cryptographic storage,
injection flaws
failure to restrict directory browsing
Are there available document that we can refer to on these issues?
Regards
Farbod

Thank you again.
Can you advise on this part of my message also?
"Also I see in oracle recommended architectures that there is a firewall between each http server and application server. Does the built in OHS in OAS provide the firewall? or I need to install another firewall?"
I am going to explain it but I think it is completely inconsistent with the thread title which I got some of my answers in, so let me start a new thread here:
Application Server Recommended Deployment Architectures, How to?
Thanks for your useful inputs.

This message means that your NWDS can not access the SLD server.
Please check the server that you have entered in the preferences of the NWDS. You need to enter the SLD server (not NWDI server) there.
Another possibility might be that your SLD server is down.

Check your web server's access logs to see how many requests web start is sending for each jar. After you've loaded the application the first time, for each subsequent launch, if you've got everything configured right, you should only see requests for the JNLP file and maybe some gifs because web start should load everything else out of the cache (if you're using the version-based download protocol). Or if you're using the basic download protocol, then you might see requests for each jar file, but even in this case, if your web server is prepared to evaluate the last-updated attribute for each jar request and for jars that have not changed, respond with no actual payload and a header value of Not-Modified, then that should run almost as fast.
You might also want to consider changing the "check" attribute of the "update" element from "always" to "background" for a couple of reasons. It should allow your app to start sooner (but this means that you might have to launch once or twice after an update is applied to the web server before the update shows up on the workstation). Also, my impression is that "always" is broken and prevents web start from ever checking to see if your jnlp file has been updated if you launch your app from a web start shortcut - launching from a browser is less likely to have this problem, depending on how often your browser is configured to check for updated resources.

I did checked the names again and I found that the makeJar.bat had an "issue".
It missed the del *.jar and I had 2 uppercase letters like ConvertorValutar, instead of convertorvalutar.jar.
After that I rebuild the war and deployed and it works :)
Thanks.

Java Web Start 1.6 fails to start application without Java Consol on Vista

Hi All,
I've faced with problem related to starting my application in IE 7 on Vista SP1 using Java Web Start (JRE 1.6.0_12 and 1.6.0_13). I suppose that issue appears after 11th update of JRE 1.6 since it works fine before.
There were set settings to indicate initial and maximal size of the Java heap in the JNLP file.
Application consist of 2 JAR files and they are signed with the same certificate.
When user tried to start application there is no any activity after accepting certificate. After starting application javaw.exe just disappeared from processes list without any message or error.
When I changed default setting in Java Control Panel to show Java Console, I noticed that the application began to start. But it's not a solution of the issue, since all customers cannot be required to turn on Java console.
I believe this is a bug in JRE as the application starts with Java console and doesn't without it.
When I browsed the web looking for the solution or an advice I found Release notes for 1.6.0_014 where it was said that 6u14 Java Web Start failed to launch and notifies that JARs were not signed, if an insecure Java system property was specified in a sandbox JNLP file. In spite of that 14th updated wasn't used and there was no notification I tried to start application without settings for the Java heap and it worked.
Could someone help me with advice, since the application cannot be started with default heap size settings.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
as the 6u15 just arrived and the above mentioned bug should've been fixed (though I was unable to verify through the release notes), the error is still in there.
We have no timestamped jars, neither ours nor the bouncy castle ones, all certs are valid, ours is self signed.
6u13 runs, 6u14/6u15 won't.
I followed the instructions here: http://bouncycastle.org/devmailarchive/msg10415.html to no avail.
The bcprov.jar is wrapped in its own jnlp and referred as extension from the "main" jnlp.
The interesting parts of the stack trace are these:
Caused by (via getCause): java.lang.SecurityException: JCE cannot authenticate the provider BC
     at javax.crypto.Cipher.getInstance(DashoA13*..)
     at javax.crypto.Cipher.getInstance(DashoA13*..)
Caused by (via getCause): java.util.jar.JarException: Cannot parse https://localhost:8443/deploy/bcprov.jar
     at javax.crypto.SunJCE_c.a(DashoA13*..)
     at javax.crypto.SunJCE_b.b(DashoA13*..)
     at javax.crypto.SunJCE_b.a(DashoA13*..)
     at javax.crypto.Cipher.getInstance(DashoA13*..)
     at javax.crypto.Cipher.getInstance(DashoA13*..)
For me it seems there's a problem with resolving the url of the bcprov.jar, which would explain the lack of a delay which normally occurs when JCE verifies the signature of the bcprov provider classes. The error pops up almost instantly.
I'm clueless what to do now. Did Sun really achieve to completely destroy JCE provider functionality in Javaws, forcing us to use an alternative implementation?

Unable to launch web start application

Hi Please can any one help me.
I have a problem in launching the web start application.
As i am the beginner i need help from you people.
I have created three class files as below.
Aeon_PManager.java
SimpleSerial.java
SimpleSerialNative.java.
We have to create a SimpleSerialNative.dll in the same folder where we are saving all the class files.
The jnlp file that i have written is as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<jnlp spec="1.0+" codebase="http://zycomm:8080" href="Aeon.jnlp">
<information>
<title>Aeon HHBM Manager</title>
<vendor>ME</vendor>
<description>Aeon HHBM Manager</description>
</information>
<offline_allowed/>
<resources>
<j2se version="1.4+"/>

<jar href="lib/Aeon_PManger.jar"/>
<jar href="lib/simpleSerialNative.jar"/>
<jar href="lib/simpleSerialNatived.jar"/>
<jar href="lib/simpleSerial.jar"/>
</resources>
<application-desc main-class="Aeon_PManager.Main" />
<component-desc/>
</jnlp>
I am using Tomact6.0 server.
I am saving the jnlp file and jar files in the path below
tomcat6.0/webapps/root
Is it wrong to do so. If it is then what should i do to launch the application.
Is it necessary for me to create jar files for all classes seperately.
should i create jar file for simpleSerialNative.dll also.
These are the error messages that I am getting:

1) I totally agree with Andrew
2) You have 3 classes and 5 jars, how's that?
3) Either you don't respect naming conventions and have uppercase packages or you don't know the difference between a jar and a package. Are you really a Java programmer?
4) You jnlp names out lib/Aeon_PManger.jar while your stack trace claims not to find http://zycomm:8080/Aeon_PManager.jar (the lib path is missing and Manager is not missing any 'a'). How badly did you mess pasting?
5) You're asking if you should package simpleSerialNative.dll without giving out any detail, do you suppose we have a universal knowledge of all existing APIs? Anyway you already got an answer to this in your other post.
6) You're a lucky man, 'cause I really love dukes, so I'll tell you what you should do (and I expect to give out 10 dukes on both posts): have a single jar within everything in it and execute it as stand alone app. Command: *java -jar YourJar.jar* (if you declare main class in manifest), or *java -cp YourJar.jar YourClassFullName*. Once you get it working you'll be ready for JWS deploy issues. If you can't get even there, take this advice: give up java (and maybe the all programming staff)!
Bye.

Hi,
Thanks for your answer friend. My admin has successfully killed my session forcebully. And he doubted that i may not have enough rights to Stop/Start application and he provided me the required rights. After that also the error is repeating as below. we two are not getting where we went wrong.

Rmi remote reference lookup very slow in web start application

I have a little problem with the RMI communication in a web start test application.
It is a very simple program in which the client calls a remote object that returns a String.
Everything seems to be working fine when i'm running/debugging the client app in eclipse, but when i package my client project into a jar file and run it as a web start application (i'm providing the jnlp on a local webserver) the remote reference lookup takes about 15 seconds.
basically, what my client does is this:
Registry registry = LocateRegistry.getRegistry(address);
ServerTransaction st= (ServerTransaction) registry.lookup(name);
String result = st.test();
The server code looks like this:
String name = "ServerTransaction";
ServerTransaction engine = new DefaultServerTransaction();
ServerTransaction stub = (ServerTransaction) UnicastRemoteObject.exportObject(engine, 0);
Registry registry = LocateRegistry.createRegistry(Registry.REGISTRY_PORT);
registry.rebind(name, stub);
The server runs as a normal stand alone java application on my local machine as well.
And here the content of the jnlp file for the client application:
<resources>
     <jar href="WSTest.jar"/>
     <jar href="WSTestServer.jar"/>
     <j2se version="1.6+" href="http://java.sun.com/products/autodl/j2se"/>
     <property name="serverAddress" value="127.0.0.1" />
</resources>
<security>
     <all-permissions/>
</security>
<application-desc main-class="test.WSTest"/>
As i said, the whole thing works when run as a normal java application as well as with web start, with the difference that the remote reference lookup takes about 15 seconds with web start.
Can anyone tell me how i could go about this?

Meanwhile, i tried the same thing at home on my xp machine (i use vista at work), and even though my test at home basically does the same thing (invoking a simple remote method that just returns "hello world") it worked pretty fast, contary to the 15 second hang on vista.
So i can't really say where the problem is...
I also found these two rmi properties
sun.rmi.transport.connectionTimeout (1.1.6 and later)
The value of this property represents the period (in milliseconds) for which socket connections may reside in an "unused" state, before the Java RMI runtime will allow those connections to be freed (closed). The default value is 15000 milliseconds (15 seconds).
and
sun.rmi.transport.proxy.connectTimeout (1.1 and later)
The value of this property represents the maximum length of time (in milliseconds) that the Java RMI runtime will wait for a connection attempt (createSocket) to complete, before attempting to contact the server using HTTP. This property is only used when the http.proxyHost property is set and the value of java.rmi.server.disableHttp is false. The default value is 15000 milliseconds (15 seconds).
Hoping it would help (totally clueless) i tried to set these as system properties via System.setProperty(...) to a lower value (if that even works this was - please correct me if i am totally wrong here) but it didn't help.

My Mac OS Lion 10.7 FileVaulted HD does not boot, prohibitory sign, stop sign appears some minutes after boot starts. Disk Utility repair shows four error messages:
Unable to bootstrap transaction group 2517: inconsistent crosscheck
No valid commit checkpoint found
The volume xxxxxxxxxxxxxx(here it shows physical volume number) was found corrupt and can not be repaired.
Problems were encountered during repair of the partition map
Error: Storage system verify or repair failed.
(the same with 2518, 2519 and 2520 transaction group)
I suppose it is serious bug in Mac OS Lion managing FileVault and wonder what the help could be?

Most likely culprit is your Lacie drives which are notorious for flaky power supplies which cause just the sort of erratic behaviour that you describe. Have had similar issues myself. Lacie has been good about replacing my power converter-- twice. If you have seven of them, good luck finding the bad one or more. Like I said, the behaviour is erratic. Sometimes it'll work sometimes not. I can't comment on Samsung drives because I've never used them and have never heard anything about them. Same with Softraid. Why not just use Disk Utility. Sounds like you're ready for an external hardware raid. This will be much faster, much more reliable, and may even be cheaper than seven firewire drives. Check out G Tech, and Maxx Digital for starters.
Best of luck
