Force Java Activation (override)

I am looking for a way to override the Firefox's blocking of Java for security reasons. I understand the risks and generally have Java disabled for my own protection. My problem now is that Firefox will not let me access some Java-enabled pages that I need to.
If I visit the a particular site (most common ones do not cause a problem), it automatically detects that Java is not available and re-directs me to another page. When I get re-directed, I don't have access to the Click-To-Play prompt, because Java is not in use on the new page. How can I disable the new BlockList or Click-To-Play (not sure what term) so that Java will just run as it always has. I will take my chances. I would like to toggle new feature off temporarily while I access site and then, I can have it go back to Mozilla's default behavior when I have finished using my particular site.
Only fix I can see at this point would be go back to an older version of Firefox or use a different browser.
January 31, 2013 - using current (non-beta) versions:
Firefox for Windows 18.0.1
Java Platform SE 7 U11 1.7.0.11

Yes, I had already read the [[How to use Java if it's been blocked]] page. Problem with my situation is that those 2 "activate" screens flash by quickly while the page determines that Java is unavailable and proceeds to another page that does not have any Java code and at that point I no longer have access to the "activate" links.
In past versions of Firefox, I would just make sure Java was enabled before accessing the page. Now, I cannot access the Java page with the current version of Firefox and Java.

How can I force Firefox to override javascript when opening links with ctrl+click?

There are certain sites that always open up a link in the active window despite said links being opened by ctrl+clicking it. Basically what happens is that a java script on the site forces the active window to load the link while at the same time Firefox follows the ctrl+click command and loads it in a new tab. You end up with two tabs with the same information and always have to go back in your original tab to be able to open other links.
Usually you can open the link the way you want by right-clicking and selecting 'Open Link in New Tab' but for some reason ctrl+click is treated as if it was a regular click. How can I stop this from happening and force Firefox to ONLY load the new tab?
This problem is not specific to the version of Firefox I'm using or the operating system, but seems to be caused by java script on the site. Disabling java scripts makes the problem go away but sometimes it also disables the sites.

If you're trying to protect your browser from hackers, I'd recommend setting up a master password for your saved passwords. Other than that, your anti-virus and firewall are responsible for keeping your computer safe.
If you're trying to protect your browser from someone else (i.e. somebody who can physically use the computer) just lock your entire computer with a password. If someone else has to use it, you could try letting them use the guest account.

Third party application forcing java stack to restart when logged in through SSO

Hi
We have APW Third party application installed on Enterprise portal 7.4.
When we tried to login APW portal through SSO it forces Java stack services to restart.If we use APW directly without SSO it works fine.
Can you help me tto resolve the issue.

Hi Manish,
Please check the configuration once agian about the third party connection and the portal.
Also provide the "dev_server0" which under in directory /usr/sap/SID/J00/work and default trace which under in “/usr/sap/SID/J00/j2ee/cluster/server0/log" to analyze the issue. There is some other tool as well to check the issue using "httpwatch" log tool. But, mostly issue can be identified in dev_server0 or defalut trace".
Thanks,

Problem calling a EJB Java Client from Java Activity Agent

Hi,
We have a wrapper java class that calls to an EJB through a JNDI lookup. The wrapper class is called from a workflow. The problem is that the call fail with the following message error:
Error : getRemoteHome Lugar: ServiceLocator NamingException Mensaje Error: Receive timed out
Mon Jan 09 15:32:13 EST 2006 Enqueuing VIC/97513 com.tallion.tax.workflow.assessment.Update

The wrapper class has in their classpath a jndi.properties as follows:

java.naming.provider.url=69.0.137.120:1099
java.naming.factory.url.pkgs=org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces
The call just works fine when we restart the Java Activity Agent and then, after a while it fails again with the same error.
Any ideas/workaround?
Thanks.

I have a situation that is a bit similar. I have successfully used beans for storing methods used in JSPs and used by other methods in the same class as was suggested above. Now I would like to break some methods into another (utility) class since they are lower level and can be used by lots of things. They are for database operations (given a String query and String dbname, it queries and returns ResultSet for example). I want to have them in a separate class for reusability and OOP.
I am having problems calling those public static methods in the public class from my bean that communicates with the JSP. I can't compile the class that calls the method in the database ops class. I get an error like :
loginHelper.java:45: cannot find symbol
symbol : variable sqlHelper
location: class dbHelperBean.loginHelper
and when I include the package name in the call I get
loginHelper.java:45: cannot find symbol
symbol : class sqlHelper
location: package dbHelperBean
That's strange since the package of both classes is dbHelperBean and the class is indeed called sqlHelper. I tried to compile it in the same directory as sqlHelper as well. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks for any help.

Hi ,
In your java project frm jdev..right click and choose general and then choose deployment profiles and then choose Jar ..and then give some appropriate name(abc) and then click ok.
Then under resources file u get a abc.deploy file right click and say deploy to jar ..u will find the jar in that director.Now include this jar in your prjct libraries.

Wait for Java Activity

Hi All,
I have a Java Activity inside the BPEL.
Now, this Java Activity gives a call to an external Web service using Apache Axis and it takes approximately around 30 seconds for the webservice to complete and return the response.
However, in the meantime by BPEL flow doesn't wait for the java response and goes ahead.
Any idea how can I make my BPEL flow wait until the java activity is completed and hence, return the response back to the BPEL.
TIA.

Hi,
Java Activity gives a call to an external Web service using Apache AxisAny particular reason to not use the regular BPEL web service call?
However, in the meantime by BPEL flow doesn't wait for the java response and goes ahead.AFAIK, this is not BPEL normal behaviour, so I imagine that this "fire-and-forget" behaviour is actually inside the java code...
If that's the case, you either should change the way Axis is calling this external WS into the java code, or use a BPEL external web service call.
Cheers,
Vlad

Force wait activity to stop and continue flow

Dear,
Is it possible to force an active wait activity (that is scheduled to expire a couple of hours later) to stop and to continue the flow with the next activity?
Thanks in advance for your feedback,
Veerle Antonissen

How would you like to force the wait activity prematurely? AFAIK this is only possible with by setting an alarm on a reveive activity, i.e. waiting for a maximum time (comparable to wait) and at the same time waiting for a message (receive activity), whatever happens first. If you send a message to the receive, it will continue before the alarm times out.
Does this solve your problem?

Hi,
I am using integrated web logic server. Do I have to create JDBC connection in Integrated Weblogic Server? If yes, then how come it was working earlier and stopped working suddenly.
Just to try out, I have created JDBC with a name soademo (As mentioned in bc4j.xml) in Integrated Weblogic Server but didn't worked.
I will send you sample java class for your reference.
public class TestClient {

        String amDef = "com.moj.model.AM.AppModule";
        String config = "AppModuleLocal";
        ApplicationModule am =
            Configuration.createRootApplicationModule(amDef, config);
        ViewObject emplist = am.findViewObject("EmployeesView1");
        emplist.setWhereClause("first_name = :p_firstname");
        emplist.defineNamedWhereClauseParam("p_firstname", null, null);

Force Quitting active Application

When holding down Shift & clicking the Apple menu whilst having an Application active, "Force Quit..." becomes "Force Quit xxx" whereby xxx is the current Application.
I'm having trouble using the keyboard shortcut for this command, Option + Shift + Apple + Esc (as listed next to the item) don't work.
Must I enable something to allow the use of this?

Nah mate, not that.
I can open the Force Quit window just fine.
I'd like to use the Force Quit <active application> keyboard command you are given when holding Shift & viewing the Apple menu.
"Click the Apple menu, keep your eyes fixed on the "Force Quit..." command, and press Shift. You'll see "Force Quit..." change into "Force Quit Safari" (or whatever app you have selected).
You'll also notice the key command beside it adds a Shift, although pressing the given key combination doesn't work as it should. "
http://img137.imageshack.us/img137/1247/fqaa1pd.png
See what I mean?
"Keyboard shortcut is commandoptionesc. You've been adding the shift key which doesn't do anything. "
That's the point, adding Shift SHOULD do something.

View Compilation Errors in Embedded Java Activity

Hi,
Is there any way to see the compilation errors in the Embedded Java Activity in the BPEL.
Thanks,
Ajay

Hi,
Exceptions are automatically converted to BPEL faults and thrown back in BPEL.
But to see some errors , one can use try catch block with audit trail entry in catch block like :
try {
catch (Exception e){
addAuditTrailEntry(e);
I have not used this so not sure if this will work.

Fast return from Java Activity Agent

Hello,
long ago I had defined some workflows using the Java Activity Agent. But now I have to create a new flow with a lot of very short activities, and I want to return control to the workflow engine as fast as possible when they complete, without waiting for the next call to background processing. Is there any known best practice to achieve this? I have tried to enqueue calls to the background engine in my java classes, but this doesn't seem a solution.
Thank you in advance,
Antonio

Hello,
I didn't post my solution because it's very hackish, though it has dramatically improved my execution time.
But to answer your curiosity...
I have added a listener to the inbound queue, thus replacing the loop to call the background engine with calls synchronized with inbound messages. Additionally I call the background engine every 30 seconds, just in case, and so that the loop exit condition is checked.
So, here's my basic listener/background handler:
DECLARE
        q_agent sys.aq$_agent;
        wf_agent sys.aq$_agent := sys.aq$_agent(NULL,'OWF_MGR.WF_INBOUND_QUEUE',0);
        v_tab_agents DBMS_AQ.aq$_agent_list_t;
BEGIN
        v_tab_agents(1) := wf_agent;
       WHILE( < ANY CONDITION TO STOP PROCESSING ... > ) LOOP
         dbms_aq.listen(
         agent_list => v_tab_agents,
         WAIT => 30, /* in seconds, may be   DBMS_AQ.FOREVER */
         agent => q_agent
         owf_mgr.wf_engine.background;
     --    DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Date: ' || TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'yyyy/mm/dd hh24:mi:ss' );
          END LOOP;
END;
