Integration of a Java-based forum into an existing webapp (Single Sign On)

Hi all,
This is my first post, so apologies if it's in the wrong place. I couldn't find a board that seemed to fit this topic.
I am looking to integrate a forum into my Java based (Tapestry) webapp. After a couple of hours googling around, i'm struggling to find something that would suit my needs so i've come looking for suggestions. It needs the following features:
- Can be deployed as part of a Tapestry based WAR
- Integrates with my existing member base, hence Single Sign On
- Rich feature set including moderation, avatars etc.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Cheers,
Ben.

Look for possible older Jive Software forum application servers. This is what the Sun forums are based on. It used to be free anyway.

Is there a free java based forum that does NOT require disk write access ?

Hello,
I've been trying to set up mvnForum (www.mvnForum.com) on my site but I've had to give it up as the way the server is set up I can only give write access to Tomcat if I give write access to everyone !
I don't need my forum to have disk access as it can just use the mySQL database the whole time. So is there a good java based forum out there that does not require disk access ? I'm hoping to find one that has e-mail authentication for people who register and things like that.
I know a php forum that will do it already but as the rest of the site is written in jsp it would be nice to be able to integrate it properly. Any help greatly appreciated.

Please try mvnForum beta3, it doesnot require disk write. Since RC1 mvnForum use disk access to write Lucene search index and attachment file.

Automatically log into iChat server via Single Sign On

I'd like to set up our clients to automatically log into an iChat server (SL 10.6.6) when users log into their client Macs (single sign on). Catch is I'd like to set this up remotely...via WGM probably via an "always" or "once" Preference configuration...but can't remember details.
Anyone point me in the right direction.

Struts and JSF Integration in OPDk-java based portlet

Hi,
thanks in advance for your help.
I'm developing a PDK java based portlet. For some reasons I cannot use the JSF bridge but I would like to integrate Struts and Jsf in my portlet, using Struts to manage actions and navigation and JSF (with ADF Faces components) for the view. I'm using the Strus-Faces library.
When I try to submit my portlet form, I receive the error "request URL not found on this server". I'm posting some exstracts of my code.
It's made of three pages: the main one "Integration1ShowPage", "error" and "result". The MainAction.java displays my mainPage, where there's a form. To keep it easy, when the user submits this form, the ActionName returns "success" and the "result" page should be displayed.
The MainAction works properly: the portlet is displayed but when I tried to submit the form I receive
The requested URL /provaDeploy/htdocs/integration1/integration1ShowPage.do was not found on this server.Could you please suggest me something?
Many many thanks,
B.
<struts-config>
<action-mappings>
<action path = "/mainAction" type = "strutsjsfintegration1.MainAction">
    <forward name = "success" path = "/faces/htdocs/integration1/integration1ShowPage.faces"/>
</action>

Hi,
have a look at this whitepaper for how to use JavaScript in ADF.
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/jdev/1-2011-javascript-302460.pdf
This link here (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/adf/learnmore/index-101235.html --> see sample 71) shows an integration sample between a Java Applet and ADF. Its a similar use case to yours

CTI integration with Non-Java based Webclient

Can anybody help?
I need any documentation concerning the implementation/ configuration of the ICI/BCB with the IC Webclinet installed on a ABAP Stack (non-java version). All info seems to be based on Java based Webclient.
Any help greatly received
Rob

I had a OSS ticket created and from that, what i could understand was that the ICI/BCB version is linked to the version of the CRM software and the associated ABAP Stack. For example CRM 2007 has the ICI version 3.05 but what you get when you put http://javahost:javaport/bcb is the Java stacks ICI system information. WHich will be like 3.00. And I was asked to ignore that java info.
What I heard is that the abap stack is the one implements the ICI/BCB Version and from CRM's version you know the ici version behind. But I did not get any mapping of "CRM version to ICI"from the OSS though.
Hope it provides little more information to your question.

Elaya

[Integrated SOA Gateway] Publish Java based web service

Welcome!
Lately I have been trying to publish Java based web service through Integrated SOA Gateway. The documentation states that:
+"Custom interface definitions can be created for various interface types including custom interface definitions for XML Gateway Map, Business Event, PL/SQL, Concurrent Program, Business Service Object, Java (except for Java APIs for Forms subtype) and Composite Service for BPEL type."+ (Integrated SOA Gateway Developer's Guide Release 12.1, "Creating and Using Custom Integration Interfaces")
After familiarizing myself with $FND_TOP/bin/irep_parser.pl and $FND_TOP/bin/FNDLOAD tools, I have started coding my POJOs. Initially I have come up with three classes - request/response objects and service implementation. Service implementation has been annotated with "@rep:X" descriptors according to "Java Annotations" section of the documentation. While invoking $FND_TOP/bin/irep_parser.pl I have received errors about class resolution. My solution was to transform request and response types to static inner classes. This way I ended up with one *.java source file (see below).
* Sample ISG Service.
* @rep:scope public
* @rep:product AP
* @rep:displayname My Custom ISG Service.
public class MyService {
public static class Request {
private String id;
public void setId(String id) {
this.id = id;
public String getId() {
return id;
public static class Response {
private String data;
public void setData(String data) {
this.data = data;
public String getData() {
return data;
* Sample operation.
* @param request Request Object.
* @return Return Object.
* @rep:displayname Test operation.
* @rep:category BUSINESS_ENTITY SAMPLE_SERVICE
public MyService.Response testOperation(MyService.Request request) {
MyService.Response response = new MyService.Response();
response.setData("Some Data");
return response;
ILDT file has been successfully created and uploaded. However, I could not see the "Generate WSDL" button on Integrated Repository website. Is there any particular interface or superclass that my service implementation should extend? I have reviewed "PurchaseOrderSDO" example posted in the developer's guide (page 407), but I couldn't come up with a working solution. Could you provide me with more detailed tutorial/example? Which documentation sections should I read again?
After searching through forum, I have spotted $FND_TOP/bin/soagenerate.sh script, and thought that lack of "Generate WSDL" button was an EBS defect. After running the script, I have received an error:
Error in Service Generation.
ServiceGenerationError: Interface Type (JAVA) Interface SubType (null) is not supported.
oracle.apps.fnd.soa.util.SOAException: ServiceGenerationError: Interface Type (JAVA) Interface SubType (null) is not supported.

     at oracle.apps.fnd.soa.provider.wsdl.ServiceGenerator.main(ServiceGenerator.java:419)
I would be grateful for any suggestions. Has anyone published Java based web service through ISG?
Best regards,
Lukasz

I tried the following as per Oracle support and able to generate the wsdl though, but not invoke the webservices.
1. Applied the patch 8607523
2. Took the translator.jar file from the patch 8857799 and replaced the current translator.jar file
3. Deploy the adapters.

Integrating the PHP Based Forum Component in CQ5 Pages.

We have the requirement to integrate the Php based forum product (VBulletin) in our CQ5 pages. Have anyone already integrated the Php based prodcuts with CQ5? Especially i would like to know the feasibilty on the following point.
A. Do we need to implement the Wrapper Service to interact with Php based products / APIs?
Thanks,
Thyshiva.

There of course multiple ways to attempt to integrate with a service like this, the approriate approach will vary based on your requirements.
The first question I would ask is what functionality are you trying to integrate into you CQ5 pages. Are you just trying list summaries of posts - say the 3 most recent posts on topic X, or are you attempting to display the complete forum functionality in a CQ 5 page.
If you doing a light weight integration - for example displaying the most recent posts then I would explore the possiblity of a client side integration using AJAX to pull the data from your PHP system in JSON or XML format. This avoids any caching related issues and keeps the integration loosely coupled. There are of course variations on these methods that use CQ as a proxy to the PHP application, but then you end up having to write a OSGI wrapper service that talks to your PHP app over web services.
If your integration is more complicated and you are looking to enable all the forum functionality. If your PHP app is visually the same as you CQ5 site you can make use of a iframe to include it in a CQ page. This obviously have potential issue (security, layout issues if sizes or CSS aren't consistent). CQ5 includes a foundation component to help with this - the External component which leverages an iframe.
If an iframe or client side approach won't work then you would need to look at creating a set of OSGI wrapper services that communicate with your PHP application via web services. This obvious would be a singificant development effort, and depending on the capabilities of you PHP application may be difficult to implement. In particular user management and security integrations be complex (you can avoid these sorts of issues with a client side or iframe approach, especially if you can sub-domain the PHP app, or use the same apache server to host both dispatcher and you PHP app).

Integrating a Java web application into the SAP NetWeaver Portal

Hello experts,
We have a requirement to integrate a Java based web application into the SAP NetWeaver Portal using iView/iFrame technology. The Java based web application is completely independent from the SAP environment but should be displayed as part of the SAP Portal environment. The other requirement is the main navigation menu for the Java based web application should be configured and provided in the SAP Portal.
Any pointers on how exactly this can be done would be of great help.
Also how can the SSO (Single-Sign-On) to the Java application be implemented so that the user can logon to the java application through the portal without providing the user credentials again.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I think you can use URL iviews to integrate your java web application with EP. you have the option of doing SSO with the application as well.
Have a look at the sap help material

Searching for flash based forums, or a way to load forums into flash ?

Im searching for flash based forums, or a way to load forums into flash ? i found this
http://activeden.net/item/flash-forum/52576?page=1
Any ideas or recommendations would be greatly appreciated

You can load the raw html - if flash is told (e.g. via
flashvars) the url of the page that you want (its available in
flash as what you would think of as the browser's 'view source'
style plain text) with either as2 or as3.
But you can't do full browser-style rendering of the content
because flash just can't do all that. You could parse the raw html
(probably a custom parser as I think the internal xml parser might
choke on some of the tags in html that are not closed such as
<br> etc) and just pick out bits of text or images that you
could display but you can't achieve an embedded browser.
Adobe's AIR might be more what you want - it has embedded
browser support- but it doesn't run inside a browser like flash.

Projet : java based discussion forum

hi all,
i am planning to build a project based upon JAVA.
the base concept is to build a java based discussion forum.
this is my first independent project so can anyone please suggest answers to following questions :
(1) how to start building a project.
(2) for text editor in my project should i use any existing editor or should i create editor on my own.
thanks
pratz

and for the editor related question may be i was not clear with the question.
actually i wanted to ask about the editor that the end user will use in my application to post his thought but ill appreciate if you could have asked me that for which editor i am asking the question instead of directly saying that i am not ready to build a project, that is really discouraging.Well, I'm just giving you honest feedback. If you don't even know how to start a project, then a discussion forum is probably a bit out of your reach.
As for your question about the editor. I assume you're creating a web based discussion forum? Then the "editor" would be just a regular HTML textbox (most likely) that the user would fill with his text.
But maybe you'll want to start with something smaller. For a discussion forum you'll need to know how to use databases, create web user interfaces and handle all sorts of other things. Do you know how to do those or did you think (like so many others here) that you'll just pick those up along the way?

How to install a java based irc client into a hand...

I've tried to install a java-based irc-client, but all I get is a webpage thanking for downloading. Something is updated for a while, but no application nor any new files seem to have been stored into the handheld nor mem-card.
Is there a way to installa programs straight from the web other than Ovi-service. I dod not find any links nor feature to browse outside the OVI-store selection. Ovi however loaded with the installer in my phone, XpressMusic 5310.

Phones I have or used to have: ancient Ericsson, Nokia: 6510, 2610, 5310 XpressMusic

Hey you can create java client using Eclispe or WSAD or far that matter any other IDE. crate a project save the WSDLs in a package. Right click on WSDL goto webservice option. From there you can generate client.

Is it still open ?

Integrating a java based cart system with coldfusion

I have a friend who is creating a cart system for me in java
and I have not used java much so i was thinking if its possible to
create the application in java but include it as an applet/object
on a coldfusion page so it would be easier to maintain?
Apart from the cart system, everything else will be in
coldfusion inclding the admin control panel where admin will be
able to add/ delete or update data from within the mysql database
through the webpages. So if i update a product information from
within the control panel or through the database, the change will
not only have to take place in the database/backend but also at the
front end, the product listing. This would be simple if the cart
system is in coldfusion but it is in java.
Also when an order is placed using the java based cart system
then that order must be updated in the database and displayed on
the list of orders in the coldfusion admin control panel which is
the backend of the system. Here the cart system would be in java as
an applet or object but uses coldfusion to connect to the
database.

RE: Java-based Client for Forte/IIOP

We have deployed an application using JDK 1.1.6,
Swing 1.0.3, Visibroker 3.2, and Forte 3.0.G.2.
We are also using Forte's Java Interoperability
Service.
We have a closely-held client base (i.e. not a
million random yahoos off the internet), so we can
secure a Java port between client and server and
download a fairly significant client. The Java
client is deployed with Sun's JRE (to control the
environment) with the following configuration:
2.6 MB JRE
765 KB Forte.zip
2.0 MB swingall.jar
1.6 MB vbjtools.jar, vbjorb.jar
100 KB application classes
1) The Swing controls don't interoperate well
with the AWT and Symantec widgets, especially in
an internal frame. They paint slowly on top of
each other, move jerkily, and paint before moving
to the programmed coordinates so it looks silly.
100% Swing controls play well with other Swing
controls and are reasonably fast.
2) We used Symantec Cafe 2.5a to paint the
screens, and had some problems with the
setLayout(null) on things like the Swing tab
folder and split panel. Commenting out the line
fixed it, but I'm hoping Cafe 3.0 will fix it (I
have a person installing it but haven't gotten a
report...)
3) The initial search time to turn an IOR file
into a reference is an annoying 10 seconds, and
the first method call takes about 7 seconds, but
after that is less than a tenth of a second.
Haven't done any digging to find out why yet.
4) If we were deploying this as an applet, we
would probably use the IDL IIOP export--when using
the Java Interoperability service, any method call
seems to load the whole 765K across the
line...class by class. Ugly. IDL just gets what
it needs and is smaller.
5) Also, if deploying as an applet, we wouldn't
have to download the JRE or visibroker jar files,
and would only download the swing and Forte IDL
generated classes as needed, so it would be a much
smaller footprint than the 7MB above. (Note:
However, we would be at the mercy of the browser
being used by client.) Different strokes for
different folks...

My worry is that Swing, while eloquently designed,
represents an attempt to
write a totally new display system which, at least
in the case of my

the Java (or a Java-like
i.e. J++) language, but I feel safer using the
native MS widgets. It does
not seem that anyone on this forum has used Swing

Embedding java based application in portal

hi ,
I want to embedd a java based application..Iam giving the pageURL in provider file..will it work r any problem..
i want to display that application as portlet.is mentioning page url is enough..that is tomcat..
Second way:if i copy all jsps and source files to htdocs and create a war file and ear file..will it works..
how to mention in provider.xml file to show this application in portal.
is there any specific way..
plz mail me
regards,

Our expirience with these types of applications is that you will need to integrate your jsp files (to some degree) into Oracle's jpdk framework, which essentially means some of the functionality of your jsp files may not work properly unless you switch to use many of JSP files with the JPDK api (i.e. custom tags and custom api calls so that the portal can render your application as a java portlet provider).
I think there is also a way that you can deploy your web application in oc4j and possibly use the web clipping portlet to show this java based application, however, I am not familiar with this, and you should probably ask Oracle Support for more information

Jack
