Flash Lite Server Redirect - best practice?

Hey all,
I work in a small creative department in Japan, and we are
starting to take orders for mobile Flash apps. We have, until
recently, only done inline Flash movies, but I've been put in
charge of our first full-Flash app. The only thing I'm not clear on
is this: How should I implement the switch on the server side that
a) redirects people trying to get to the content from a PC to a PC
page; and b) keeps people from being able to access the content
directly so they can download and decompile the Flash file?
Capcom, for example, is doing an excellent job at this, and
even if I spoof the server with a mobile user-agent, I still can't
get the mobile content to come up on my PC.
Anyway, I was hoping maybe somebody would know something
about this and would be able to advise on best practices: PHP?
.htaccess? JavaScript redirects? Also how do you hide the content
(no need to type up an example script - but what are the key
parameters that I should be testing against)?
Thanks in advance!
Ryoma

Kunerilite is free, but you can install only one sis
application at a time, for the Basic version.
Yeah, it does have plugins, etc, but then comes the pain,
register at symbiansigned, UID, etc.
For the simple choice and for a quick sis, nothing fancy,
swf2go might be good.
At least this is my initial thought. Haven't tested
yet.

Building complex flash game in Flash Builder 4 - Workflow/Best Practices

I'm investigating switching to Flash Builder 4 for building a complex game that currently lives purely inside Flash CS4. CS4 is a pretty terrible source code editor and debugger. It's also quite unstable. Many crashes caused by bad behavior in the SWF will take out the entire IDE so are almost impossible to debug. And I've heard other horror stories. To be clear, for this project I'm not interested in the Flex API, just the IDE.
Surprisingly, it seems Flash Builder 4 isn't really set up for this type of development. I was hoping for an "Import FLA" option that would import my Document Class, set it as the main entry point, and figure out where other assets live and construct a new project. What is the best workflow for developing a project like this?
What I tried:
-Create a new Actionscript Project in the same directory where my CS4 lives
-Set the primary source file to match the original project's source file and location
-Set my main FLA as "export to SWC", and added "SWC PATH" to my flash builder 4 project.
-Compile and run.. received many errors due to references to stage instance. I changed these to GetChildByName("stagename"). Instead, should I declare them as members of the main class? (this would mimic what flash CS4 does).
-My project already streams in several external SWF's. I set these to "Export SWC" to get compile-time access to classes and varaibles. This works fine in cs4, the loaded SWF's behave as if they were in the native project. Is the same recommended with FB4?
-Should I also be setting the primary FLA as "export to swc"? If not, how do I reference it from flex, and how does flex know which fla it should construct the main stage with?
Problems:
-I'm getting a crash inside a class that is compiled in one of the external SWF's (with SWC). I cannot see source code for the stack inside this class at all. I CAN see member variables of the class, so symbol information exists. And I do see the stack with correct function names. I even see local variables and function parameters in the watch window! But no source. Is this a known bug, or "by design"? Is there a workaround? The class is compiled into the main project, but I still cannot see source. If FLEX doesn't support source level debugging of SWC's, then it's pretty useless to me. The project cannot live as a single SWF. It needs to be streaming and modular for performance and also work flow. I can see source just fine when debugging the exact same SWC/SWF through CS4.
-What is the expected workflow with artists/designers working on the project? Currently they just have access to all the latest source, and to test changes they run right through flash. Will they be required to license Flash Builder as well so they can test changes? Or should I be distributing the main "engine" as a SWF, and having it reference other SWF files that artists can work on? They they compile their SWF in CS4, and to test the game, they can load the SWF I distribute.
A whitepaper on this would be awesome, since I think a lot of folks are trying to go this direction. I spent a long time searching the web and there is quite a bit of confusion on this issue, and various hacks/tricks to make things work. Most of the information is stale from old releases (AS2!).
If a clean workflow I would happily adopt Flash Builder 4 as the new development tool for all the programmers. It's a really impressive IDE with solid performance, functional intellisense, a rich and configurable interface, a responsive debugger..I could go on and on. One request is shipping with "visual studio keyboard layout" for us C++ nerds.
Thanks very much for reading this novel!

Flash builder debugging is a go! Boy, I feel a bit stupid, you nailed the problem Jason - I didn't have "Permit Debugging set". I didn't catch it because debugging worked fine in CS4 because, well, CS4 doesn't obey this flag, even for externally loaded SWF files (I think as long as it has direct access to the SWC). Ugh.
I can now run my entire, multi SWF, complex project through FB with minimal changes. One question I do have:
In order to instantiate stage instances and call the constructor of the document class, I currently load the SWF file with LoaderContext. I'm not even exporting an SWC for the main FLA (though I may, to get better intellisense). Is this the correct way of doing it? Or should I be using , or some other method to pull it into flex? They seem to do the same thing.
The one awful part about this workflow is that since almost all of my code is currently tied to symbols, and lives in the SWF, any change i make to code must first be recompiled in CS4, then I have to switch back to FB. I'm going to over time restructure the whole code base to remove the dependency of having library symbols derive from my own custom classes. It's just a terrible work flow for both programmers and artists alike. CS5 will make this better, but still not great. Having a clean code base and abstracted away assets that hold no dependencies on the code seems like the way to go with flash. Realistically, in a complex project, artists/designers don't know how to correctly set up symbols to drive from classes anyway, it must be done by a programmer. This will allow for tighter error checking and less guess work. Any thoughts on this?
Would love to beta test CS5 FYI seeing as it solves some of these issues.

Subject: Building complex flash game in Flash Builder 4 - Workflow/Best Practices
How are you launching the debug session from Flash Builder? Which SWF are you pointing to?
Here's what I did:
1) I imported your project (File > Import > General > Existing project...)
2) Create a launch configuration (Run > Debug Configuration) as a Web Application pointing to the FlexSwcBug project
3) In the launch config, under "URL or path to launch" I unchecked "use default" and selected the SWF you built (I assume from Flash Pro C:\Users\labuser\Documents\FLAs\FlexSwcBug\FlexSwcBugCopy\src\AdobeBugExample_M ain.swf)
4) Running that SWF, I get a warning "SWF Not Compiled for Debugging"
5) No problem here. I opened Flash Professional to re-publish the SWF with "Permit debugging" on
6) Back In Flash Builder, I re-ran my launch configuration and I hit the breakpoint just fine
It's possible that you launched the wrong SWF here. It looks like you setup DocumentClass as a runnable application. This creates a DocumentClass.swf in the bin-debug folder and by default, that's what Flash Builder will create a run config for. That's not the SWF you want.
In AdobeBugExample_Main.swc, I don't see where classCrashExternal is defined. I see that classCrashMainExample is the class and symbol name for the blue pentagon. Flash Builder reads the SWC fine for me. I'm able to get code hinting for both classes in the SWC.

Icmp redirects best practice

Is there a best practice for enabling or disabling icmp redirects? Looks like I have redirects enabled and that caused a problem for a host server the other night. A line went down, the 6500 sent a redirect that was not really a valid route and when the line came up, the host still cached the redirected route, causing a problem. Are there any pro's and con's, although I'm leaning towards disabling redirects?
as always, thanks for your ideas.

Failover cluster File Server role best practices

We recently implemented a Hyper-V Server Core 2012 R2 cluster with the sole purpose to run our server environment. I started with our file servers and decided to create multiple file servers and put them in a cluster for high
availability. So now I have a cluster of VMs, which I have now learned is called a guest cluster, and I added the File Server role to this cluster. It then struck me that I could have just as easily created the File Server role under my Hyper-V
Server cluster and removed this extra virtual layer.
I'm reaching out to this community to see if there are any best practices on using the File Server role. Are there any benefits to having a guest cluster provide file shares? Or am I making things overly complicated for no reason?
Just to be clear, I'm just trying to make a simple Windows file server with folder shares that have security enabled on them for users to access internally. I'm using Hyper-V Core server 2012 R2 on my physical servers and right now I have Windows
Server Standard 2012 R2 on the VMs in the guest cluster.
Thanks for any information you can provide.

Hi,
Generally with Hyper-V VMs available, we will install all roles into virtual machines as that will be easy for management purpose.
In your situation the host system is a server core, so it seems that manage file shares with a GUI is much better.
I cannot find an article specifically regarding "best practices of setting up failover cluster". Here are 2 articles regarding build guest cluster (you have already done) and steps to create a file server cluster.

Client on Server installation best practice

Hi all,
I wonder on this subject, searched and found nothing relevant, so I ask here :
Is there any best practice/state of the art when you have a client application installed on the same machine as the database ?
I know the client app use the server binaries, but must I avoid it ?
Should I install a Oracle client home and parameter the client app to use the client libraries ?
In 11g there is no more changeperm.sh anymore, doest-il prove Oracle agrees to have client apps using server libraries ?
Precision : I'm on AIX 6 (or 7) + Oracle 11g.
Client app will be an ETL tool - explaining why it is running on DB machine.

Given the premise "+*when*+ you have a client application installed on the same machine as the database", I'd say you are already violating "best practice".So I deduce from what you wrote, that you're absolutely against coexisting client app and DB server, which I understand, and usually agree.Then you deduce incorrectly. I'm not saying there can't be a justifiable reason for having the app live on the same box, but as a general rule, it should be avoided. It is generally not considered "best practice".
But in my case, should I load or extract 100s millions of rows, then GB flow through the network, with possible disconnection issues, although I could have done it locally ?Your potentially extenuating circumstances were not revealed until this architecture was questioned. We can only respond to what we see.
The answer I'm seeking is a bit more elaborate than "shouldn't do that".
By the way, CPU or Memory resources shouldn't be an issue, as we are running on a strong P780.

Storage Server 2012 best practices? Newbie to larger storage systems.

I have many years managing and planning smaller Windows server environments, however, my non-profit has recently purchased
two StoreEasy 1630 servers and we would like to set them up using best practices for networking and Windows storage technologies. The main goal is to build an infrastructure so we can provide SMB/CIFS services across our campus network to our 500+ end user
workstations, taking into account redundancy, backup and room for growth. The following describes our environment and vision. Any thoughts / guidance / white papers / directions would be appreciated.
Networking
The server closets all have Cisco 1000T switching equipment. What type of networking is desired/required? Do we
need switch-hardware based LACP or will the Windows 2012 nic-teaming options be sufficient across the 4 1000T ports on the Storeasy?
NAS Enclosures
There are 2 StoreEasy 1630 Windows Storage servers. One in Brooklyn and the other in Manhattan.
Hard Disk Configuration
Each of the StoreEasy servers has 14 3TB drives for a total RAW storage capacity of 42TB. By default the StoreEasy
servers were configured with 2 RAID 6 arrays with 1 hot standby disk in the first bay. One RAID 6 array is made up of disks 2-8 and is presenting two logical drives to the storage server. There is a 99.99GB OS partition and a 13872.32GB NTFS D: drive.The second
RAID 6 Array resides on Disks 9-14 and is partitioned as one 11177.83 NTFS drive.
Storage Pooling
In our deployment we would like to build in room for growth by implementing storage pooling that can be later
increased in size when we add additional disk enclosures to the rack. Do we want to create VHDX files on top of the logical NTFS drives? When physical disk enclosures, with disks, are added to the rack and present a logical drive to the OS, would we just create
additional VHDX files on the expansion enclosures and add them to the storage pool? If we do use VHDX virtual disks, what size virtual hard disks should we make? Is there a max capacity? 64TB? Please let us know what the best approach for storage pooling will
be for our environment.
Windows Sharing
We were thinking that we would create a single Share granting all users within the AD FullOrganization User group
read/write permission. Then within this share we were thinking of using NTFS permissioning to create subfolders with different permissions for each departmental group and subgroup. Is this the correct approach or do you suggest a different approach?
DFS
In order to provide high availability and redundancy we would like to use DFS replication on shared folders to
mirror storage01, located in our Brooklyn server closet and storage02, located in our Manhattan server closet. Presently there is a 10TB DFS replication limit in Windows 2012. Is this replicaiton limit per share, or total of all files under DFS. We have been
informed that HP will provide an upgrade to 2012 R2 Storage Server when it becomes available. In the meanwhile, how should we designing our storage and replication strategy around the limits?
Backup Strategy
I read that Windows Server backup can only backup disks up to 2TB in size. We were thinking that we would like
our 2 current StoreEasy servers to backup to each other (to an unreplicated portion of the disk space) nightly until we can purchase a third system for backup. What is the best approach for backup? Should we use Windows Server Backup to be capturing the data
volumes?
Should we use a third party backup software?

Hi,
Sorry for the delay in reply.
I'll try to reply each of your questions. However for the first one, you may have a try to post to Network forum for further information, or contact your device provider (HP) to see if there is any recommendation.
For Storage Pooling:
From your description you would like to create VHDX on RAID6 disks for increasment. It is fine and as you said it is 64TB limited. See:
Hyper-V Virtual Hard Disk Format Overview
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh831446.aspx
Another possiable solution is using Storage Space - new function in Windows Server 2012. See:
Storage Spaces Overview
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh831739.aspx
It could add hard disks to a storage pool and creating virtual disks from the pool. You can add disks later to this pool and creating new virtual disks if needed.
For Windows Sharing
Generally we will have different sharing folders later. Creating all shares in a root folder sounds good but actually we may not able to accomplish. So it actually depends on actual environment.
For DFS replication limitation
I assume the 10TB limitation comes from this link:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/csstwplatform/archive/2009/10/20/what-is-dfs-maximum-size-limit.aspx
I contacted DFSR department about the limitation. Actually DFS-R could replicate more data which do not have an exact limitation. As you can see the article is created in 2009.
For Backup
As you said there is a backup limitation (2GB - single backup). So if it cannot meet your requirement you will need to find a third party solution.

Report server setup best practice info needed -SOLVED-

Hello, I'm looking for some best practice info on how to set up the report server to handle multiple reports from multiple apps (hopefully in separate directories).
We are converting forms 5 apps to 10g. Currently reports live in the same dir as the form files, each in their own application directory. Moving to 10g, the report.conf file specifies a reports dir. It does not seem that there can be multiple directories listed in the sourceDir parameter, in order to handle mutiple directories where reports can live. Is it possible to set it up so it can find reports in any of our 20 application directories? Do we have to have only one directory where all reports are served from (if so we'll have an issue, as reports from different apps could be named the same)?
How have you folks solved this situation?
Thanks for any info,
Gary

Got it working! Thanks to all for your input! I found a reference on Metalink to a known issue with running on Sun Solaris, which was causing me problems.
Bottom line, here's what I did to get it all working:
1) Report server .conf file:
- Comment out sourceDir line in the engine entry.
- Add environment entries for each app before the </server> line at the end .
<environment id="prs">
<envVariable name="REPORTS_PATH" value="(path to dir where reports live for this app)"/>
</environment>
- Bounce the server (not sure if this is necessary)
2) $ORACLE_HOME/bin/reports.sh:
- Comment out line that sets REPORTS_PATH
This was necessary for Sun Solaris (the bug as mentioned on Metalink)
3) The app .fmb that calls the report:
- Set the report object property to specify the environment ID before calling
run_report_object():
set_report_object_property(rpt_id, REPORT_OTHER, 'ENVID="prs"');
Blue Skies,
Gary

Portal server deployment best practices

anyone out there knows what is the right way to deply portal server into production environment instead of manually copying all the folders and run the nessarily commands? Is there a better way to deploy portal server? Any best practices that i should follow for deploying portal server?

From the above what I understood is you would like to transfer your existing portal server configuration to the new one. I don't think there is an easy method to do it.
One way You can do is by taking the "ldif " back up from the existing portal server.
For that first you have to install the portal server in the new box and then take back up of existing portal server using
# /opt/netscape/directory4/slapd-<host>/ldif2db /tmp/profile.ldif
edit the "/tmp/profile.ldif " file and modify <hostname> and <Domain name> with the new system values.
copy this file to the new server using
# /opt/netscape/directory4/slapd-<host>/ldif2db -i /tmp/backdb.ldif
and also copy the file "slapd.user_at.conf " under /opt/netscape/directory4/slapd-<hostname>/config to the new system.
Restarting the server makes you to access the portal server with the confguration of the old one.

Mac Pro 10.7 Server DMZ best practice

The Mac Pro has 2 gigE, what is the best practice for lion server and DMZ?
Should I Ignor one and put the server in the DMZ and firewall from the LAN to the server (pain for file share), or use one port for the DMZ and one into the LAN.
I have been trying to use the two ports and LION SERVER seems to want to bind only to one address (10.1.1.1 DMZ or 192.168.1.1 LAN).
Does anyone have a best practice for this? I a using a Cisco ASA 5500 for the firewall.
Thank you

If you put your server in a DMZ all trafffic will be sent to it unfiltered, in which case the server firewall would be your only line of defense against attack.
For better security, set firewall rules in the Cisco that will pass trafffic to the ports you want open and deny traffic on all other ports. You can also restrict access to specific ports by allowing or denying specific IP addresses or address blocks in the firewall settings.

Java Server Faces best Practices

Hello,
I am starting to like JSF. But I want to know the following.
Where is the contoller in a JSF application, is it the Managed Bean???? or a Backing Bean?
Should I put my Business Delegate on a Managed Bean? or in a Backing Bean? What is the difference?
Can anyone tell?.
I would like to know JSF Best Practices? Blueprints?.
Thanks.

Hi Senthruan,
The documentation referenced by the following links is based on an older version of JavaServer Faces technology.
Backing Beans:

FUsing3.html
UI Components :
http://java.sun.com/webservices/docs/1.3/tutorial/doc/J
FUsing3.html (just as a visual example).You should instead use the J2EE tutorial (http://java.sun.com/j2ee/1.4/docs/tutorial/doc/index.html), which is based on version 1.1 of JavaServer Faces technology. The JavaSErver Faces material starts with chapter 17. The topics have moved around a bit, but the tutorial has a nice search engine, so you shouldn't have trouble finding the information you need.

Server Refresh - Best Practice

We are normally a Unix shop, but do have some Windows servers, notably a new installation of SAP Solution Manager, and upcoming Bex Broadcaster and SAP Portal. All of these systems will be on Windows for reasons of cost and available technologies.
We will be refreshing our hardware (on practice) every 3 years.
For a unix environment, this would not pose a problem, since the SAP installations and databases copy easily from system to system.
My question, to my learned peers, is what is the best approach to maintain a Windows installation over hardware generations?
1) Is it simply to re-install the application and environment, then copy the database?
2) Is it to use a 3rd party tool such as PowerConvert?

Thanks, Yaroslav. Resourcing is allways an issue with VMWare. I would like to keep this thread open longer. Windows has been the OS for many large companies. Hardware refresh (not to mention DRP) happens as a matter of course. My feeling is that the best practice is simply to re-install then copy the database. I am looking for an alternate solution. -alan

- Add a user defined table, containing an integer (id) and a string (description)
- Add an integer UDF to the object to store a reference to the role.
Would you advice to do it like this or would you even advice not to do it like this, but recommend another way?
Thanks for your time!

Hi Vincent,
I don't think there's a best practice as such but there are sometimes a few ways to set up the same solution. When making your choice of which configuration to use, it's best to consider aspects like data security, maintenance etc.
In your example, your solution would work fine. Using a UDT makes it very easy to add new roles and you can also add columns to your UDT to store other role-based data. However, it's harder to set the security to prevent users opening the UDT form, if that's a requirement. The other approach would be to add the roles as valid values in the UDF itself. This makes it easier to set basic security but it's not a good solution if the number of roles will change frequently as you need everyone out of the system to update the UDF valid values.
Also bear in mind that XL Reporter cannot read from UDTs.
Kind Regards,
Owen
