have forgotten the Admin passwd also..HOw do i make it work ? But port 80 is
working. Any help would be deeply appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Mohan you password for admin server are stored in an encrypted format in \usr\iPlanet\Servers\https-admserv\config\admpw. For some reason Iplanet dosent document how to generate encrypted password file, if you have another admin instance that you know the password of please copy the \usr\iPlanet\Servers\https-admserv\config\admpw file to the instance you are having problems with.
You can also generate encrypted passwords with apache htpasswd tools.
For problems with the admin server not able to start look into your error log file and post the symptoms here.
You can contact me for further help at [email protected]

Migrate certificate 3.x to Oracle iPlanet Web Proxy Server 4.0.20

Hi
I try to migrate from Sun iPlanet Web Proxy Server(SPWPS) 3.6 to Oracle iPlanet Web Proxy Server(OPWPS) 4.0.20 and I have some problem.
I have an instance in SPWPS-3.6 with SSL certificate, when I migrate it to OPWPS-4.0.20 using the admin interface, the certificate
is not migrate with this error message :
Migrating Keys and Certificates...
[Error] The password entered for the key is not valid
Assimilation failed.
But I am sure to enter the right password.
After that I manage the new instance in administration interface, and in Security Panel, there is a choice to "Migrate 3.x certificate"
I try this, but I get this error message
Incorrect Usage
The password entered is not valide
Can somebody help me to resolve this problem ?
Thanks in advance.

Your proxy instance should start. The error you are seeing should only be for the admin server. Add the location of where your jvm.so is located to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH. The jvm.so is located under the JDK directory.

How do I fix configuration initialization failure on Iplanet 6 admin server?

Bug Report: JSSE 1.0.2 & iPlanet-Web-Proxy-Server/3.6

When tunneling through iPlanet-Web-Proxy-Server/3.6 we get a "Socket Closed" exception during the handshake (right after overlaying the tunnel). I got this problem with HP-UX. My browser works fine with that proxy so the problem isn't the proxy. And my code works fine with every other proxies. This proxy does return HTTP 1.0 so this well known issue isn't related.
Anyone from Sun can confirm this issue ?
Anyone else got this bug ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi all,
When you say tunnelling, are you referring to code similiar to the code in JavaWorld Tip 111?
I am currently trying to debug some issues with that code myself. I get similiar errors when tunnelling through a proxy.
The download works correctly when a HttpsURLConnection is used to connect directly to the same site.
I am using a squid-cache as my test proxy, so I am not sure if the proxy is the problem. (assuming we are talking about the same issue)
I have noticed that a V3 site certificate seems to be more likely to fail though. I have not found a site using a V1 certificate where the tunnelling has failed.
We are also discussing what I think is the same issue in the thread "HTTPS tunneling and V3 certificates".
I have been trying to get this stuff working for a few months now.

IPlanet Web Proxy Server 3.6 and emptying out the cache.

Hello.
I'm wanting to empty out our proxy server's cache in an attempt to resolve one of our users help desk problems - a web site they are accessing is not loading correctly when going through the proxy server, bypassing the proxy server works.
The problem is that the technician who implemented our iPlanet Web Proxy Server 3.6 has left the company and no one else is aware of how to do this. Can anyone advise of what has to be done to achieve it? Thank you.
Kind regards,
Jimmey.

Hi
This as per the HTTP/1.1 RFC (RFC2616)
The Connection general-header field allows the sender to specify options that are desired for that particular connection and MUST NOT be communicated by proxies over further connections.
The Connection header has the following grammar:
Connection = "Connection" ":" 1#(connection-token)
connection-token = token
HTTP/1.1 proxies MUST parse the Connection header field before a message is forwarded and, for each connection-token in this field, remove any header field(s) from the message with the same name as the connection-token. Connection options are signaled by the presence of a connection-token in the Connection header field, not by any corresponding additional header field(s), since the additional header field may not be sent if there are no parameters associated with that connection option.

IE 6.0 seems not compatible with iplanet web proxy server 3.6

We have Iplanet Web Proxy Server V3.6 on AIX 4.3.3, and is trying to roll out IE browser V6.0. And is experience following problem:
When first try to access an ACL controlled URL, after enter user name and passwed, it would say "page cannot be found", and user has to click on "Refresh" botton, then it is OK. Subsequent access are all fine.
It seems to be a bug to me with proxy server. Currently, there are only SP2 for V3.6 available on the download site. However, from the release notes, it does not say it is fixing this specific problem.
Anyone can advise on this ?

I think this one is fixed in SP3. Can you try to upgrade and see if the problem still persists.

'-1' bytes in log file - iPlanet Web Proxy Server 3.6

I'm running iPlanet Web Proxy Server 3.6, and getting strange results in log file using extended format. Where the number of bytes should be (c1 - the content-length sent to the client by the proxy).
I regularly get a '-1' instead of the number of bytes. Anyone tell me where this is coming from and how to stop it?

Someone in the Web Proxy Server forum might. I guess you accidentally posted in the Web Server forum. However, if your question is time- or business-critical, you should probably contact Sun directly: http://www.sun.com/support

IPlanet Web Proxy Server 3.6 SP 5 Persistent Connection doesn't work

I use iPlanet-Web-Proxy-Server/3.6-SP5 on Soloaris. and trying to use persistenet connection functions in forward proxy through setting keep alive to "ON". But I found this functions doesn't work at all. The following trace is the HTTP Header info i got from receiver.

Your proxy instance should start. The error you are seeing should only be for the admin server. Add the location of where your jvm.so is located to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH. The jvm.so is located under the JDK directory.

Safari 3.x (Leopard) and Web Proxy Server Problems:

I have a Squid proxy server running on Linux. Users web traffic is directed through it via WPAD server which hosts a simple PAC file. The PAC files is very clean and small. It basically points all external (Internet) web traffic to our Proxy server. All of our Windows, Linux and Tiger clients work fine. However, Leopard (Safari 3.x) doesn't work quite right. Here's what happens:
Mac user logs into a Leopard 10.5 Mac. User launches Safari and tries to go to an external (Internet) site. The WPAD server is contacted and the Mac User is prompted to authenticate to the Proxy server. This is totally normal behavior thus far. Then, however, every few minutes the Leopard Mac user will be prompted to authenticate again (sometimes 2 or 3 times in a row!). Firefox 2.0.x, when configured to use the WPAD/PAC server and Proxy server, works fine in Leopard. Only Safari 3 in Leopard is having the problem.
All the Macs (Tiger and Leopard) are configured to use the Proxy server via OS X's Network Pref Pane (using the "Automatic Proxy Configuaration"). Reminder: Tiger works fine (even with the Safari betas), but Leopard's doesnt not.
I have attached our PAC file inline below (some things edited for privacy):
// SIMR automatic configuration for Mozilla and friends
// $Id: wpad.dat,v 1.8 2005/12/14 20:18:23 dct Exp $
// Edit carefully, since many may be relying on this...
function FindProxyForURL(url, host) {
// Bypass the proxy for internal addresses
if (!url.match("http:")
|| url.match("http://127.0.")
|| url.match("http://10.")
|| url.match("http://192.168.")
|| isPlainHostName(host)
return "DIRECT";
// These are exceptions given in the IE config for Windows.
if (host == "www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov"
|| host == "chabry.caltech.edu"
|| host == "flybase.bio.indiana.edu"
|| host == "www.fedex.com"
|| host == "domain.org"
return "DIRECT";
return "PROXY <proxy server>:8080";
}

I think I have a similar problem. I am a Mac connecting to an otherwise all PC school network.
A new location with all correct proxies has been set up. However, Safari always crashes on first attempt to negotiate its way through our server to the internet. Internet explorer gets through because in its preferences it is possible to include the name of the school domain as well as my user name and password.
We have been unable to find any way of including the domain name into Location in Network or into Safari.
However, once Internet Explorer has negotiated with the server I can launch Safari and it works as normal.
Safari/Network seems to lack this option of including a domain name that my PC server requires.
Make sense to anyone?
Worth mentioning that my copy of Internet Explorer (5.2) often crashes, but usually it has done its job by then. I quite like the concept of Internet Explorer sacrificing itself to clear a path for Safari.

Admin server problem

Hi!
After restarting host, when I tried to log in through console but I received following error:
Cannot logon because of an incorrect password or Directory problem.
HTTP Exception
Response: http/1.1 500 Server error
status: 500

Could anyone help?
thanks in advance

It sounds like your Directory Service (under Global Settings) is not set up correctly.
If you are using an LDAP service, just include the proper strings.

Starting integrated web logic server problem

Hi,
I'm using JDeveloper 11g (11.1.1.3) in Windows 7 (64bit), i tried to run an example project which is StoreFrontUI , but jdeveloper fails to complete the start weblogic with this message.
The text in console is:
*** Using port 7101 ***
C:\Users\yusuf\AppData\Roaming\JDeveloper\system11.1.1.3.37.56.60\DefaultDomain\bin\startWebLogic.cmd
[waiting for the server to complete its initialization...]
\Adobe\Adobe was unexpected at this time.
Process exited.
Can anyone help me?

User,
Hopefully you are using a 32-bit JDK.
The only time I've seen this error is when the WLS domain has been extended for Oracle Reports and there is a right-parenthesis character - ")" - in the path. Is either of these true for you? If so, try starting JDev from a command-line prompt where you have changed the parts of the path with the parenthesis in it to have double-quotes around them. Something like "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Teleca Shared";c:\windows;
