How to create a setup to install our app to WLS 7.0 SP2?

My application will be released to our customers. We want to create a setup by
InstallAnywhere to install our application to Weblogic Server.
The tasks that the setup should accomplish are:
(1)add an authectication provider to WLS.
(2)create the datasource according to the user selectoin of the db servers(SQL
Server, Oracle etc.)
(3)deploy the ear into WLS.
We don't know that whether the setup should modify the config.xml to accomplish
the task, or WLS provides the APIs for the setup to accomplish the tasks. Which
is a better choice?
Thanks for the help!

While this is not the sole of your answer, check out medrec in 8.1 and the
ant scripts in the setup directory.

    Hi,
    Consider the above scenario,I suggest you to use the SQL Server Compact+ ClickOnce Deployment, A Compact SQL database is a file that can be bundled with your application installation. Below is a link guiding you through the creation process of a SQL Compact
    database.
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms173009.aspx
    The following link discusses setting up the necessary dependencies and prerequisites for SQL Server Compact. (Note, you will need to scroll to the section entitled Private File–Based Deployment.)
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa983326(v=VS.100).aspx
    A ClickOnce Deployment can help you publish your application attach compact SQL database into client machine.

  • How to create new folders while installing the VI in some other PC

    Hi,
         I want to create a folder while installing the VI to some other maching using installer/setup.exe and also i want to copy some excel file to the c: drive of installing PC while installing is their anyway to do this. Please help me in this regards
    Regards
    Shivakumar Singh

    Hi
    If you are installing vi from CD, then you might use the first approach with application builder.
    If you just want to use any CD, than I think you should consider some interactive script with the user.
    You can easily creat one with the windows commands, by means of *.cmd files. You can read about it by typing "help cmd" and/or "help" in the RUN in Windows. Then I propose to search the web for some examples on how to write the cmd scripts. If you know TCL there will be no problem for you.
    You can also try to ask some dudes on the WinNT newsgroup. They will write it in no time.
    Unfortunatelly I have now no time to write the script for you.
    good luck

  • How to "Create a Windows 7 install disk" on Mountian Lion w/Bootcamp 5

    It's basically the same way you create one with previous Bootcamp & OS verisons.
    Finder -> Applications -> Utilities -> Select Bootcamp -> Show Package Contents
    Open "Info.plist"
    Scroll until you see whats listed below.
    <key>PreUSBBootSupportedModels</key>
              <array>
                        <string>MacBook7,1</string>
                        <string>MacBookAir3,2</string>
                        <string>MacBookPro8,3</string>
                        <string>MacPro5,1</string>
                        <string>Macmini4,1</string>
                        <string>iMac12,2</string>
                        <string>iMac11,2</string>
              </array>
    Remove the "Pre" in "PreUSBBootSupportedModels"
    Then it will ask if you want to make a copy of the file, click yes.
    Now in the new "plist" file cut out "MacBook7,1" in the top line and replace with your Model Identifier (Can be found in "System Information" under "Hardware Overview")
    Save this file as "Info.plist"
    After save the old "Info.plist" file as "Old.Info.plist" and move to the trash can (May as for log in info to do so)
    Then after that file is in the trash move the NEW "Info.plist" (The one you edited) to the Bootcamp Content folder in place of the other one.
    If everything is done right you should now be able to "select/disselect" the "Create a Windows 7 install disk" in bootcamp.
    You're welcome,

    I recently bought my Mac MIni 2010 Model, yes i know, 2010 Model?! But that's what i can afford for now since i already have an Apple Cinema display, an Apple Wireless keyboard and a Magic Mouse.
    When i tried opening the Boot camp assistant, since my Mac has an optical drive, only two options were shown and the "Create Windows USB install disk" option wasn't there at all.
    So i searched the net for help and i found only one that answers my query (http://forums.atomicmpc.com.au/index.php?showtopic=51873), however, after following the tutorial, it didn't work and my Boot Camp assistant ended up crashing (quit unexpectedly). So i reverted the process and my Boot camp assistant went back, up and running but still no third option.
    So disappointed, i went back to the "info.plist" that i was working on (using Xcode) and tried to mess around with the contents.
    Then after over an hour of trial and error, i decided to just revert the changes that i did and quit. As i was clicking on the , and because i was a noob, i deleted by mistake the entire array of strings containing "Boot ROM Versions" that allows some mac models to boot windows using usb and when i click cmd+z, it just won't undo it.
    So i guess, i was screwd! So nervous that i thought i killed the app, i closed the "info.plist" and checked if the Boot Camp assistant would still launch.
    To my surprise, it actually opened! And to my astonishment, it even shows the third option! I guess, no one has ever did this, as we speak!
    So you can call me an Accidental Hacker LOL! To all of you who understands fully the function of "info.plist" - any thoughts?

  • How to create a single login for multiple apps on tomcat server?

    Hello,
    I am running the most recent versions of apache and tomcat on several dells with XP pro.
    When I login to an app I have created, a session variable is set, but when I browse to one of the other apps on the same computer, it does not recognize that the session variable has been set and I have to login again.
    Can somebody please suggest how, or where I can find docs, to configure tomcat to pass the session variables to other apps?
    Thank you very much.
    Or, can anybody suggest the most effective strategy for creating single-logon functionality for multiple apps with tomcat and apache running on one computer? and with tomcat and apache running on multiple computers? (i.e., each computer has tomcat and apache integrated).
    The database is Oracle 10g running on each computer.
    Thank you again.

    A good place to start is http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/javatips/jw-javatip34.html
    Also, do a search in this forum on HttpURLConnection. That class allows you to use POST method to send form data to a web server.
    "Hidden" variables are only hidden in HTML. The HTTP that gets POSTed to the web server doesn't distinguish between hidden and not hidden. That is, the content you would write to the HttpURLConnection.getOutputStream() would be something like:
    hidden=1&submit=ok(Of course, the variable names would depend on what the web server was expecting from the form.)
    Also, be sure to set the Content-Type request parameter to "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"

  • How long does it take to install the app Garageband for iPad?

    I installed the app garageband but it took very long I installed it from about 7:45 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Is this a problem with my iPad or computer or is this normal?

    That is an extraordinarily long time to download a 369MB app - IMO. However there are other factors to consider - your Internet connection speed, how busy the server is, how many others are trying to download it. But even with all of those factors taken into consideration, that is way too long - at least compared to my experiences.
    I downloaded and installed the iOS 5 update - restored the iPad and all of the content - signed up for my icloud.com account - all in about 90 minutes - on the evening that the update was released.
    Maybe I have been spoiled by my ISP and the fast connection that I have at home.

  • How to create a setup.exe from a pure java program

    i have some program using pure Java Swing.... i already created jar files to make it executable everytime you click on the icon... but i want to create a installer type like setup.exe just like in VB....
    How on earth can I do that?!?
    Thanks!

    This is one...

    And there are a lot more like jexe n stuff.
    But look out. Only some convert it to pure native

    need a JRE to run yer program.
    extremely sorry. Didnt read the post properly .Sorry

  • How To By-Pass Setup after Install?

    Is it possible to by-pass Setup after an Erase and Install and how would I do this?

    You can do this:
    1. First, boot from your Installer DVD, select your language and click on the Continue button, then select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu, select your boot hard drive, go to the First Aid tab, and click the button for Repair Disk. Repeat this until no trouble is found. Then click on the Repair Permissions button. Then quit DU, return to the installer and shutdown the computer for a couple of minutes.
    This will assure that the drive is OK and permissions are OK.
    2. Next, boot to single user mode by restarting and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-S keys until a black screen with white type appears.
    3. At the prompt, type the following commands pressing return after each command line:
    /sbin/fsck -yf
    mount -uw /
    rm /private/var/db/.AppleSetupDone
    shutdown -r now
    The second-to-last command above will cause OS X to think that the operating system is newly installed, and when you reboot, it will send you to the startup wizard where you can start a new user without reinstalling.

  • How to create a more general install package for an AIR app?

    Hi,
    I have been using the ADT to compile an exe of my AIR app along with some other files I want to distribute. Problem is, I would like to do more general install actions (e.g. copy a bunch of files to the users Documents directory, copy a file to the local store, install fonts etc). Right now I achieve some of these by copying stuff from the application directory on the first run, but that is rather kludgy. Currently I am looking at using InstallShield or InstallAnywhere to do what I want out of the can, but I thought I'd see if anyone has some more AIR-friendly suggestions...
    Thanks!

    In my case I managed to work around the issues we were having by doing a configuration pass on the first run of the app. That means I had to basically put all the data I needed in my assets directory using the ADT compiler, then determine if it is a first run as follows:
    var locationPrefsObj:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("PrefsObj");
    if ( !locationPrefsObj.data.hasOwnProperty("appCreatedDate")
    || ( locationPrefsObj.data.appCreatedDate != File.applicationDirectory.creationDate.toString() ) )
         firstRun();
    else {
         initConfig();
    // initialize an existing config
    The firstRun function will obviously be very bespoke, but you need to set the SharedObject at the end of it to make sure it doesn't get called every time.
    // this function is only run straight after an install
    private function firstRun():void {
         var success:Boolean = false;
         // do your first run stuff here and mark success=true if you are happy   
         if ( success ) {
              // set the appCreatedDate - then a future install can identify dirt left by the previous install
              var locationPrefsObj:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("PrefsObj");
              locationPrefsObj.data.appCreatedDate = File.applicationDirectory.creationDate.toString();
              locationPrefsObj.flush();
    Other gotchas I hit:
    (1) You can copy things from the assets folder no problem, but to move or delete anything (so as not to leave lots of extra stuff hanging around), you need to (a) run with administrator privileges on Vista and w7 (the elevation happens automatically if you leave the "Run after install" box checked on an ADT install), and (b) work around the Flash security model that says you can't delete anything from a subdirectory of Program Files under any circumstances. I got around this by something like:
    // delete a file
    new File(File.applicationDirectory.resolvePath("assets/fileToBeDeleted").nativePath).deleteFi le();
    It's a bit nasty as it violates the security model, but until ADT lets you put stuff in two install locations I can't see another way to clean up the install properly.
    (2) I tried to install fonts (using VB and other stuff), but it is a real mess - the models in all different flavours of Windows seem to be different. I gave up as our software could get around it another way ...
    Hope that helps!

  • How to create file form servlet in our virtual directory

    hi....
    I want to create a file form my servlet in my virtual directory..
    my directory name ia vps
    it cconatin vps -> WEB-INF -> classes-> servTest
    servTest is servlet....
    and i want to create file from servTest in vps directory..
    actually i am trying to create file but it by default saved in windows/system32 directory.

    You need to give the absolute path to create the file, if you just give the filename, the file will be created in the working directory which is system32 for Windows.
    You could either hardcode it, or you can use ServletContext.getRealPath("/") ( http://java.sun.com/j2ee/sdk_1.3/techdocs/api/javax/servlet/ServletContext.html#getRealPath(java.lang.String) ) This will return the path on the server's filesystem where your application folder ( under webapps for Tomcat) is located.
    NOTE: If you application is in the form of a .war file, this may not work! The server may return a null.
    "/" specifies the root i.e., your application's highest level directory. If your application is webapps/vps then getRealPath("/") will return something like C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat 4.1\webapps\vps

  • How to create a authority group for our customer table(se54)?

    Hi,everyone:
          I found a problem when I create a authority group for my customer table,I can't write the creation
    to a request no(can't assign to a package),I want to know whether the authority group I created can be
    transport to the PRD when I realse the request no.
    Thanks!!!

    Auth Group is nothing but a table entry so for sure it can be transported to any environment, before Assigning any Auth group create one in SE54 when you try saving it it would ask you the TR number which you can transport to PROD.
