How a J2EE web application access CR reports stored on the CR Server XI?

Hi,
I'll be working on some crystal report templates that will eventually be hosted/publish on the CR Server XI.
My questions are:
1. How my J2EE web application access those reports?
2. Do my web application uses some CR API for the connectivity and integration?
3. What will happen to the database connectivity of the report template? since the report are created locally.
4. Can the report template be edited/updated on the server?
5. How the CR XI login functionality be involve in the integration (web application ---> CR Server XI)?
6. Is the J2EE web application be deployed on similar web/application server where the CR Server XI resides?
7. What is the role of RAS, Universe, Business View Manager to this whole CR integration?
I hope you can provide some guidance on this journey to Crystal Report world

1) Your application connects via the Java SDK using the appropriate JAR files.
2) It can. You can set the database information at runtime or use the already populated information from Enterprise.
3) Same as 2. Typically when you save the report to Enterprise you set up the database information there so that it runs against the database you want without prompting. You can change this via code to hit whatever equivalent database you want.
4) Yes. You would have to use RAS and the RCAPI to accomplish this via code. You can also make changes in the designer and overwrite the existing report template.
5) You will log in via code. The information on how to do so is in the SDK documentation, which I will link.
6) It can be deployed to the same machine as CR Server, though we recommend against that. Typically you will want to deploy it to a seperate web server and allow it to connect to the CR Server across the network.
7) RAS can be used to run reports, as well as the page server. The universe and business view manager are not directly used in code. If a report runs against a universe or business view then it will use them for data, but you wouldnt do anything with them directly.

How to access deployed J2EE Web application ?

Hi,
I am new to J2EE Web Application. I have created a Web Module project and in that I have created a servlet. I did a build for WAR file. I have created an Enterprise Application Project and included this WAR file. I built the EAP and deployed it to J2EE engine. I am successful till here.
I am not sure how to access this deployed application and thus this servlet.
I tried to access the following way :
http://<hostname>:<portnumber>/<EAPName>/<ServletName>
However, I receive the error no such location.
In the web.xml file, in the servlet-mapping section, I have mentioned the servletname and urlpattern.
I have mentioned the urlpattern as MyServlet and not /MyServlet. Notice the 'backslash'.
Could this be an issue ?

Oracle forms to j2ee/web application

Hello all,
I need help with converting "oracle forms" to j2ee/web application. There are only 2-3 forms. But I needed to know how to do it from scratch. I looked at some softwares available to do it. But its costly.
Basically the company I am working with, needed all the forms online, so that they can access it using a browser. As part of the development, I am using jdeveloper 10g.
could some help me out
Thanks a lot
san

Well if you need your Forms accesible from a browser you don't need to convert them to Java - you just use Forms on the Web - http://otn.oracle.com/formsupgrade
If you still want to convert to Java have a look at the Forms page for more info:

and also here:

Deploying a J2EE web application in Oracle 10g

Hi friends,
 
I had worked with Oracle9i 9.0.3 . But it's my first experience with Oracle 10g . I have installed Oracle 10g Infrastructure , Metadata Repository and one Middle tier - Forms and i hope i have followed The Oracle 10g installation guide Properly. Anyway installation is successful.
The problem is a J2EE web application which is deployed properly on Oracle9i 9.0.3 doesn't get deployed in Oracle 10g. The following is the exception :
 
Deployment failed: Nested exception
Root Cause: deploy failed!: ; nested exception is:
oracle.oc4j.admin.internal.DeployerException: Error initializing ejb-module; Exception Error in application Spom_Apps: Error loading package at file:/C:/Oracle/Ora9iASForms/j2ee/home/applications/Spom_Apps/JmsSubscriberMdb.jar, Error deploying file:/C:/Oracle/Ora9iASForms/j2ee/home/applications/Spom_Apps/JmsSubscriberMdb.jar homes: No location set for Topic resource MessageDrivenBean JmsReceiverMdb
 
 
where JmsReceiverMdb is the deployment file containing the message driven beans.
 
Thanks in advance,
paskal

Hi,
Thanks for responding . I am sending the file contents of ejb-jar.xml, orion-ejb-jar.xml, jms.xml.
Could you also check whether dtds versions of 10g and 9i in these xmls are conflicting? If you can specify your email-id i can send these file as attachments.
Hope you could strike the right spot.

How to get web application to use Tuscany without conflicting with SAP SDO

Hi,
We are attempting to run a web application on SAP NetWeaver CE 7.1 SP1 which uses Tuscany SDO. As it now stands We must use Tuscany because the web application will not run with the SAP SDO implementation provided by Netweaver. To ensure that Tuscany is loaded with priority, we have packaged the Tuscany JAR files and their dependencies as a heavy resource, as described here:
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/60642a88-95fe-2b10-d387-a245d48fc257?overridelayout=true
The final check showed that Tuscany was correctly deployed as a heavy resource and included the following JAR files:
common-2.2.3.jar
ecore-2.2.3.jar
ecore-change-2.2.3.jar
ecore-xmi-2.2.3.jar
tuscany-sdo-impl-1.1.1.jar
tuscany-sdo-lib-1.1.1.jar
tuscany-sdo-tools-1.1.1.jar
xsd-2.2.3.jar
We also verified that the web application using Tuscany has a hard reference to the Tuscany heavy resource.
However, when we try to run the web application, the following error is logged: java.lang.LinkageError: Class commonj/sdo/DataGraph violates loader constraints
The issue is definitely due to some kind of classloading conflict with the SAP SDO library, as the application runs normally when SAP SDO is manually removed from the classpath. Doing this on a production system is unfortunately not an option, though.
So the question is: how to get web application to use Tuscany without conflicting with SAP SDO?

I took a look at the "printerReady" example. Looks like I may be able to use the InetPing (...) function to ping through a range of IP addresses looking for a response.
Any ideas on how to find the MAC address associated with the IP addresses that respond?
We may have multiple units responding and the MAC address will allow the operator to determing which unit to connect to.
I'll try the InetPing to see how it works,
Kirk

How does PeopleSoft ( web application) connect to DB ?

Hi,
How does PeopleSoft ( web application) connect to its Oracle database, does it use JDBC or OCI or else ?
Thank you.

The webserver is connecting to the application server through the Jolt port, and the application server is connecting to the database within a database client installation (runtime).
Nicolas.

I have configure remote access feature web application proxy but not configure give the error. The remote name could not be resolved.

I have configure remote access feature web application proxy but not configure give the error. The remote name could not be resolved in server 2012 R2.
I have configure Ad and ADFS different server and try to configure web application proxy different server. what setting are required for connect web application proxy to Ad and ADFS.

Hi,
In addition, please make sure that the port 443 is not blocked by the firewall.
Web Application Proxy requires internal name resolution to resolve the names of backend servers, and AD FS servers. When publishing web applications via Web Application Proxy, every web application you publish requires an external URL. For clients to reach
these web applications, a public DNS server must be able to resolve each external URL that you configure. Note that the external URL must resolve to the same IP address as the Web Application Proxy server, or the external IP address of a firewall or load-balancer
placed in front of the Web Application Proxy server.

Susie

How to deploy web application to Weblogic?

I do not want to make changes in 'web.xml' file as it worked in other container. I guess I miss something that is special, probably basic, to WebLogic, but I do not know what it is.
Bye the way, who know how to reward points to other people? I cannot find the 'assign points icon'.
Thanks hoos. Your answer give me confidence that a web application could be deployed by copy war file to some directory (I guess from my experience of other containers).

Consume Portal Service from J2EE web application

hi, i am a newbie to portal content development. My team have developed a J2EE web application to be run on the portal. Is it possible to consume a Portal Service from J2EE web application? If possible, deeply appreciate if you could provide some guidelines. Kindly advise. Thanks.

Hi Theodore Yu,
You need to expose your portal service as a webservice to consume it in a j2ee web application.
For exposing a portal service to webservice check this link

Difference Between Web application design and Report Designer

Hi,
I have searched in the forum as well i Google it but still i am not clear the difference between Web application Designer and report Designer , why especially we go for WAD ? and what is not possible in Report designer which we can do in WAD Please some one explain me that would be great helpful to me. i am having lot of confusion in this issue.
thanks,
Gal

Hi,
The Report designer is completely for formating of your query and results. Here you have the flexibility to design your query(one/more) results in your own way.
The WAD is for displaying various web items at one short for a single/multiple query. And here you have the flexibility to do the XML coding on the web items, but not as much you have the flexibility on Report Designer.
But, Report designer will have more performance issues than WAD. So, generally it helps when you need extreme formating of your reports.
Hope this clears your doubt.
Regards,
Srinivas.

Calling a java application from j2ee web application

Hi,
I have a j2ee application in which i am making a call to a jar file which is a java application.
Runtime a4 = Runtime.getRuntime();
Runtime a = Runtime.getRuntime();
String cmd[] = new String[14];
cmd[0] = "cmd";
cmd[1] = "/c";
cmd[2] = "start";
cmd[3] = "javaw";
cmd[4] = "-jar";
cmd[5] = CATALINA_HOME+"\\webapps\\AveksaTesting\\AveksaTestingJava\\dist\\AveksaTestingJava.jar";
cmd[6] = SERVER_TESTS;
cmd[7] = COLLECTOR_TESTS;
cmd[8] = SYSTEM_TESTS;
cmd[9] = CREATE_ORACLE;
cmd[10] = DB_NAME;
cmd[11] = DB_DUMP;
cmd[12] = email;
cmd[13] = isMIGRATE;
try{
java.lang.Process p = a.exec(cmd);
Now in the called java application, i am first shutting down the tomcat server by calling shutdown.bat script and then starting it using startup.bat. But the problem i am facing is when i restart the server from java application, it says address already in use(i.e. port 8445 on which tomcat is runninng).
Id i just call the java application and do the same operation it works fine. I guess when i am calling java from j2ee application, j2ee still has some threads holding java and not shutting down tomcat properly.
Can anyone suggest me what can be done in this case. I have to call a java application from j2ee and restart the tomcat server many times.
Thanks in advance

You can't technically. iPads cannot directly read HDDs like a computer can.
You will need an app liie FileBrowser to do this. Of course all file operations will be done through the App itself.
