How to check process is running for an application pool on remote server

Hi,
I am creating console application which will check whether WCF is up and running. I am thinking of the approach whether w3wp prcoess is running for a particular application pool using some .net API. We have different website with different application pool.
I know we can use metatdata or any operation inside WCF service to test svcutil or proxy methods but i don't want that. Please help.
Thanks,
Dhanaji

I assume your goal is to simply provide a heartbeat to periodically make sure that a service is running? There is no real guarantee that a service will be available until you actually try to call it.
Also please realize that you're going to impact the server's performance by doing this. IIS is set up to idle out apps that aren't being used. If you periodically poll the service then you will prevent IIS from doing this. The result will be
that you'll see a WCF service running even if nobody every uses it. Is this really what you want? Hence if you have a lot of WCF services being checked then the server is wasting resources on services that might not be needed.
IIS doesn't work like a normal application. It hosts your WCF service. You should let IIS handle the lifetime of your service rather than using a heartbeat. It would take a catastrophic failure for IIS to be unable to start a service when
a request comes in. The app pool itself may be running even without the WCF app running. An app pool is a collection of apps so if any app is running then the pool is running. Checking the pool tells you nothing about the apps in it.
You mentioned that you don't want to use IIS metadata or a proxy but that is the only 2 options you have. Personally I would just hit the endpoint with a HttpWebRequest and verify you get a response but the IIS metadata would be a close second.

How to check plan line items for plan cost at network activity level?

Dear all,
How to check plan line items for plan cost at network activity level? The plan cost is done in network activity in CJ20N.
I am not able to check using CJI4 or CJI9 report.
Kindly advise.
Thanks and regards,
Jessie

Hi Jess,
Have you checked the navigation part which is being displayed on left hand side of report S_ALR_87013565 and S_ALR_87013533.? There you have option to check transaction currency and object currency when you double click on it.
In case if it is not being displayed under navigation. Then you can bring them on from transaction code CJE2. For eg: Report group for S_ALR_87013533 is 12KST1C. Double click on it and it will open up to do changes in report layout and many more. There you also have options to bring on transaction currency too. Similarly, you can check for other report groups as well just by checking the report description.
But I am not sure if suits your requirements. Wait for other experts to comment on this.

Amit

Go to Solution.

Hi Hookso,
You can do it using the different loops like While loop and For Loop. Roderic has already stated how to do it using a for loop. I have illustrated in the attached vi how to do it using a while loop and Elapsed Time function. Take a look.

HOw to create a Batch file for java application and whats the use of this ?

HI,
How to create a Batch file for java application ?
And whats the use of creating batch file ?
Thanks in advance

First of all, you're OT.
Second, you can find this everywhere in the net.
If you got a manifest declaring main class (an classpath if needed), just create a file named whatever.bat, within same directory of jar file, containing:
javaw -jar ./WhateverTheNameOfYourJarIs.jar %*By the way, assuming a Windows OS, you can just double click the jar file (no batch is needed).
Otherwise use:
javaw -cp listOfJarsAndDirectoriesSeparedBySemiColon country/company/application/package/className %*Where 'country/company/application/package/' just stands for a package path using '/' as separator instead of '.'
Don't specify the .class extension.
Javaw only works on Windows (you asked for batch, I assumed .BAT, no .sh), in Linux please use java.exe (path may be needed, Windows doesn't need it 'cause java's executables are copied to system32 folder in order to be always available, see PATH environment variable if you don't know what I'm talking about) and use ':' as classpath (cp) separator.
The '%***' tail is there in order to pass all parameters, it only works on Windows, refer to your shell docs for other OSs (something like $* may work).
This way you have a command you can call to launch your code (instead of opening NetBeans just to see your app working). You could schedule tasks on it or just call it in any command prompt (hope you know what it is 'cause there have been people in this very same forum with no clue about it, if not just hold the 'Windows button' and press 'R', then type 'cmd' and run it).
Finally add dukes and give 'hem away.
Bye.

How to create the exe files for java application

How to create the exe file for java application?
got any software to do that?
Thanks

In terms of converting java applications into exe files, there are 3 schools of thought:
1) Instead of converting it to an exe, convert it to a jar file. Jar files are more portable than exe files because they can be double-clicked on any operating system. The caveat is that a Java interpreter must be installed on the target computer for the double-clicking to work.
http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/Books/javaprogramming/JAR/
2) Create an exe launcher that, when double-clicked, attempts to find a Java interpreter on the local computer and launches the Java application. The exe file is still double-clickable but whether your java application runs depends on whether a Java interpretor is installed on the target computer.

http://www.rolemaker.dk/nonRoleMaker/javalauncher/
http://www.jelude.cjb.net/
http://thor.prohosting.com/~dfolly/java/index.html
3) Create an exe launcher that bundles a Java interpretor. Same as above but when the exe file is double-clicked, it searches for a Java interpreter and if one is not found, it installs one on the target computer. The caveat is that the exe file would have an overhead of 10 MB in size for the interpreter.
http://www.excelsior-usa.com/jet.html (evaluation version available)
4) Convert the Java application into a native exe file. The caveat is that if you use Swing for your GUI, it won't be converted. Also this option is still somewhat experimental.
Can't think of any free options right now.

How sharepoint understand when user requests for web applications by their DNS names

HI
I configured Alternate access mapping in my sharepoint farm for default ,intranet zones
and spt farm has two web front end servers and they load balancing by F5 device
in WFE servers there are different web applications are running on different ports
so here I want to know how load balancing works, load balancing configured in F5 device.
when users request a webapplication from browser (ex http://cms) where this request will go
1)when I ping cms and other web applicaations it returns me a loadbalancer server IP for all web applications;
ping cms : it returns 10.xxx.0.80 , same ip returns when I ping for other web app
but ex CMS web application run on the 10.xxx.1.26:81 port in sharepoint server
2) and these sharepoint web applications running on different ports in sharepoint web servers , so here how sharepoint understand when user requests for web applications by their DNS names
http://cms and http://products etc
adil

I'm not sure if the F5 can add a port number (I'm not an expert on load balancers). But in general if you design the SharePoint site to run on port 81 then you need to have port 81 appended to the request or it won't work. http://cms in your
example would take you to http://cms:80 not http://cms:81. But in general DNS will resolve the address back to the F5 load balancer. The load balancer will look at the header of the HTTP request (which contains the original address you requested)
and forward the request to the appropriate web front end IP address. If your web front end is using one IP address for multiple sites then those sites need to be differntiated by using a custom port like 81 (which must be included in the original request)
or because a host header was bound to the web application when it was created. If they are running on different port numbers then the request must include the port number by the time it gets to the SharePoint server.

How can i use this color for my Application Background ?? Screen Shot Attached

Hi ,
I can find only plain colors on to Color Picker , but this is line mixed color
How can use this attached Color for my Applications Background Color .
Please find the Screen Shot attached .
please see the background color

Are you trying to apply a gradient background?
In Flex 3 in Application tag:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
backgroundColor="#666666"
backgroundGradientColors="[#333333, #666666]">
</mx:Application>
In Flex 4 you need to set the backgroundColor and apply a skin for the gradient:
-------------- mySkins/MyAppSkin.mxml -------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<s:Skin xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
        xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"
        xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark">
<fx:Metadata>
    [HostComponent("spark.components.Application")]
</fx:Metadata>
<s:states>
    <s:State name="normal" />
    <s:State name="disabled" />
</s:states>

<s:Rect id="backgroundRect" left="0" right="0" top="0" bottom="0">
    <s:fill>
      <s:LinearGradient rotation="90">
        <s:entries>
          <s:GradientEntry color="0x333333" ratio="0" alpha="1"/>
          <s:GradientEntry color="0x666666" ratio=".66" alpha="1"/>
        </s:entries>

    <s:layout>
      <s:VerticalLayout/>
    </s:layout>
</s:Group>
</s:Skin>
-------------- test.mxml -------------
<?xml version="1.0"?>

<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"

How to set the stack size for alchemy application?

Anybody know how to set the stack size for alchemy application?
If you know, please tell me how to adjust the stack size for alchemy application?

Hi,
The stack size is set as public const gstackSize in the alchemy generated code. You can see this if you build with ACHACKS_TMPS set. The default is one megabyte.
One way to change the stack size is to use llvm-dis to disassemble avm2-libc/lib/avm2-libc.l.bc, generating avm2-libc.l.ll, modify the constant, and then use llvm-as to recompile your modified library and overwrite the old one. These utilities should be in your path if alchemy is set up.

How can I disable the Keychain for an application?

How can I disable the Keychain for an application? A window pops up every time I open a page in Safari asking me for a password. I'm using a student laptop, so while I'm an administrator I lack access to a few things, such as the Keychain Access application. Is there any way to deal with this?

It's possible you may be able to trick it by creating an Applications folder in your Home directory and moving Safari to it.
I can't test this but it might work. The problem is that you would miss Safari updates, so you'd have to keep an eye out for them. Another solution may be to download another Safari and install in yourname/Applications.
