J2EE APPLICATION ON OAS10G AND J2EE APPLICATION ON IBM Websphere

Hi All,
As you all know that there are many application servers in the market for deploying the application so I just want to know why we all choose Oracle Application Server 10g for deploying J2ee application and why some choose IBM Websphere for deploying J2ee application. Is there any doc which specifies that Deployng J2ee application on Websphere is better than OAS 10g.
Regards
Kumar

If you have to choose an architecture now, I would advice not to choose Oracle Application Server, but BEA WebLogic. On Oracle Open World I learned that Oracle will stop developing on OC4J, so WebLogic seems the smarter choise.
To either choose weblogic or websphere has to do with a lot more then just the J2EE specs. It also has to do with knowledge of your collegues (who have to support either of these products), company strategy, etc. Therefore this question cannot be answered that easy.
Personally I think an all Oracle stack is just fine, WebLogic has a richer featureset then WebSphere (AFAIK). WebSphere is not a bad product though.

Reports 9i/10g J2EE Thin Client for Websphere Application Server 5.x /6.x

We are having Reports developed in 6i which needs to be migrated to Reports 9i/10G and we want to deploy these reports in web using Websphere Application Server 5.x /6.x without Oracle iAS.
Do we have Reports 9i/10g J2EE Thin Client for Websphere Application Server 5.x /6.x and if so please let me know.
Also if anybody has the configuration details please let me know?
Thanks in Advance.

No there is not. I don't think you can use reports services with Websphere - besides as far as I know it is not supported by Oracle (not anywhere in their support matrix).

Reports9i J2EE thin client for WebSphere

Hi,
I need to deploy Oracle Reports9i rwservlet in IBM WebSphere 4.0 Application Server.
I have seen the J2EE thin client for WebLogic available for download on OTN. How about one for WebSphere? Is it available? If not, is the Oracle Reports Team working on it and when would it be ready for download?
Thanks,
Bharat

Hi Bharat,
We are working on j2ee thin client for WebSphere. Most of the issues on WebSphere has been addressed, we are finalizing the work and it should be available soon.
Thanks,

J2EE replaces BEA Weblogic, IBM WebSphere, Orion or JRun

BEA Weblogic, IBM WebSphere absolutely provide stronger ability to support enterprise applications.
I want to know whether J2EE can be used in deploying a commercial web site with multi-tier architecture. For example, to handle hundreds concurrent requests, to balance work load to some extent.
Thanks.

J2EE is a platform specification. And WebLogic, WebSphere, JRun etc. are vendor specific products that implement APIs from that platform standard.
It seems you are talking about the refrence implementation of J2EE that comes with J2EE SDK.
See http://java.sun.com/j2ee/faq.html Especially the answers therein to the two questions...
1. What is the purpose of the Reference Implementation?
2. Why don't you allow the binary Reference Implementation to be deployed or redistributed?

We use:
<%@ include file="../WEB-INF/jspf/head.jspf" %>where the head.jspf is a jsp fragment like:
<% response.addHeader("Cache-Control", "no-cache"); %>
<% response.addHeader("Pragma", "no-cache"); %>
<% response.addIntHeader("Expires", -1); %>
<html>

JSP on IBM WebSphere Application Server 3.5.4

Hi, Could pls. someone suggest what is required to be done to get a JSP working on IBM WebSphere Application Server.
This is what I have tried so far:
One of the directories on the app server is
C:\WebServer\AppServer\hosts\default_host\examples\web
When I place a JSP in the above path, it works fine (http://localhost/webapp/examples/xyz.jsp in the browser).
Question:
Where is webapp (as it appears in the URL) defined?
Then, I go on to create new directories as follows
C:\WebServer\AppServer\hosts\default_host\MyApps
C:\WebServer\AppServer\hosts\default_host\MyApps\web
Place a working JSP in C:\WebServer\AppServer\hosts\default_host\MyApps\web. And when I enter http://localhost/webapp/MyApps/xyz.jsp or http://localhost/MyApps/xyz.jsp in the browser, the JSP can't be located.
What is required to be done (from mapping point of view) and where? Does anything pertaining to JSP need to be defined on the HTTP Web Server (not for JSP's I think). Where should I put the JSP file so that everything for the application could be grouped together and it will work as well.
I have gone through other postings on this issue on this forum but they have been of little help.
Any thoughts on how to get this working.
Thanks

I use IBM Visual Age 3.5 & 4 which contains a scaled down vesion of Websphere for running servlet and JSPs. I am very familiar with the intricacies of running web apps in in this scaled down environment. What I'm about to tell you may or may not apply to WAS but it should help you.
You can't simply add a directory under default_hosts and expect a new web app to appear. Websphere only recognizes web apps that are set up properly in the servlet_engine file. Each server has it on servlet_engine file located in the properties directory. For the default server, the file is named default.servlet_engine. In that file you must add a new <webspher-webgroup> element as a child element to <websphere-servelet-host name="default_host">. I added a web app to my server and it looks like this.
<websphere-webgroup name="second_app">
       <description>The second app</description>
       <document-root>$approot$/web</document-root>
       <classpath>$approot$/servlets$psep$$server_root$/servlets</classpath>
       <root-uri>/</root-uri>
       <auto-reload enabled="true" polling-interval="3000"/>
       <shared-context>false</shared-context>
</websphere-webgroup>I can't remember if it automatically creates the directory structure for you now or not, but at any rate, this web app will be stored in c:\WebServer\AppServer\hosts\default_host\second_app with the enclosed web direrectory as your location for JSPs.
One more thing to mention. For every web-app you create, there is a descriptor file similiar to the web.xml deployment descriptor you see in /WEB-INF for the servlet 2.2+ spec. In my case the file is name second_app/servlets/second_app.web_app. In the descriptor you would probably want to configure some settings specific to your web app such as servet registration, init parameters and which version of the jsp compiler to use.
Since IBM came out with WAS 3.5 before the Servlet 2.2 spec went mainstream for Servlet Containers, WAS's configuration is quite unconventional. But, I found that the documentation that comes with WAS explained all these configuration quirks quite well.
Hope this helps

Installing Demantra 7.2.0.2 with IBM Websphere as the application server

Can anybody share the documentation / insight into installing Demantra 7.2.0.2 using IBM Websphere 6.1 (OS-Windows) ?
Can we install the Demantra on the same machine on which Websphere is installed or we need another box.
Which steps we need to follow ? Any setting on the Websphere for this ?
Suppose Websphere is installed on http://webmac.xxx.com (machine name) - is this the web address we need to specify even if we are installing on the same machine.
Thx for your help.
Pankaj

Hi Pankaj,
If the other users are on the same network as the machine on which Tomcat is running, they can access demantra web applications directly. Only measure to be taken is that the url should contain either IP address or the network m/c name of the server machine alongwith the port no.
e.g.
http://10.32.142.123:8080/....
http://mymachine:8080/....
If the other users are on some different network and wanted to access Demantra web applications through Internet, then you will have to ask your networking team to open the port no (e.g. 8080) of the Tomcat server machine through the firewall of your environment. This will allow the users outside of your environment to access the application running on your specific machine through the specific port only.
And the users who want to access these applications might also have to put host entries as suggested by Shekhar depending on the internet access policies of their organization.

From your description, since the agent installs file with a different JRE, I would suspect it has something to do with the availability of JCE provider in the first JRE. By default, WebSphere's JRE is equipped with IBM JCE provider which is what the agent uses to encrypt the necessary
information. If this provider is not configured correctly it could result in the error that you are seeing. Please check the WebSphere installation and make sure that the JRE used by it has the necessary IBM JCE provider configured. The java.security file for this should contain something like:
security.provider.1=sun.security.provider.Sun
security.provider.2=com.ibm.crypto.provider.IBMJCE
security.provider.3=com.ibm.jsse.IBMJSSEProvider
security.provider.4=com.ibm.security.cert.IBMCertPath
security.provider.5=com.ibm.crypto.pkcs11.provider.IBMPKCS11
Also, make sure that when you are installing the agent you specify the Java Home as prompted by the agent to point to the location where this JRE is installed. Typically this is under WebSphere/AppServer/java directory. HTH, Jerry

Cannot run any report in oas10g and db 11g

Hi,
I have a trouble with OAS Reports Services 10gR2 (in Windows server) when I connect to Database 11g (in Oracle Linux server), because I can't run any report.
This issue not exist when I connect to another database server with 9i, all reports run fine!
Exist any restriction or compatibility issue with OAS10g and DB11g?
Can be an special configuration in $ORACLE_HOME/reports/conf/<report server>.conf?

I found the problem I forget to run rw_server.sql in 11g.
Please not consider this post.

VisualAge RPG and crystal report + IBM Websphere Studio Dveloper client

Hi friends
My doubt is with regard to VisualAge RPG an alternative of java for AS400 servers yet iam posting here
I am trying to call Crystal report using VARPG The IDE used is IBM Websphere studio developer for iseries 6.0.
In VARPG GUI based windows application i am able to add Crystal Report Viewer (CRviewer.dll) to the ACtivex control object. I have to set the Report source and activate the Activex. The control has a property named ReportSource which is of numeric type. I tried to set the report source by calling openReport methox of Craxdrt.dll. I get a error as follows
0211 Error occurred while calling program or procedure OpenReport.
Cause . . . . . : The program attempted to call program or
procedure OpenReport, but was unable to access the program or procedure. If
the name is *N, the call was a bound call by procedure pointer.
Recovery . . . : Check the error log file FVDCERRS.LOG for more
information on the cause of the error. If the call was to a local
program, then the program could not be found, or the accumulated
parameters exceeded 1024 bytes in length. If not found, either specify
the full path name or make sure the program resides in a directory
listed in the PATH environment variable. Verify that the file
extension is correct. If no extension is specified, .EXE is assumed.
Is my way of calling crystal report is correct or i have to set the report source by any other way.
Thanks in advance
Ashokans

Vamsi
You ned to specify the location of the reports in the RAS server.
Follow these steps.
1. Go to the crystal configuration manager.
2. Click Crystal Report Application Server and stop the service.
3. Click the properties button.
4. Go to the parameters tab and from the option type select Server.
5. In the report directory text box, specify the director in which the reports are located.
6. Click ok and Start the Crystal Report Application Server
thats about it

WebDynpro and IBM WebSphere

Hi everyone,
I've got the following scenario. We have a bunch of WD4A applications that we'd like to integrate with IBM WebSphere.
If we deploy them through portal, there won't be any WSRP support from the portal side and integration cannot be achieved.
What are the options then?
If we integrate them as simple iFrame, what happens to the theme? And what if we have multiple WD views interacting one another? Is the deployment of SAP Portal best practice?
Thank you.
Cheers

That's my point too.
However I'd like to know whether there's some official docs from SAP stating what the best practice would be.
In fact, if SAP portal isn't deployed, the only way integration can be done is via iFrame.
- What happens to the theme then? I think that there will be a discrepancy between SAP's and IBM's themes unless SAP's theme is tweaked manually to look like IBM's.
- What happens to inter-communicating WDynpros? I mean if we have two (or more) WebDynpro apps that need to exchange data and no SAP portal is in place?
- On the other hand, if we deploy SAP Portal and want to integrate SAP Portal with IBM WebSphere, I guess we'll be having tough time later on, because BSPs, WebDynpros, Pages, etc. don't support WSRP and cannot be consumed by WebSphere. Can anybody confirm this? Has anyone ever tried this scenario?
Thank you.

How to Set Up SSO Between IBM WebSphere and SAP EP Using JAAS

Hi
I have read the article on SDN called "How to Set Up SSO Between IBM WebSphere and SAP EP Using JAAS", which is also the name of my posting.
The reason why I post this is that I've tried to follow the links in the PDF to get the file WebsphereEpSsoLib.zip but I get an error 403, which tells me that the file is not there.
Does anybody know where this file went or can somebody tell me an alternative place to get this file?
Jacob

Please open the associated whitepaper, and you can find the download link to the .ZIP file on page 4.
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/library/ibm/how to set up single sign-on between an ibm websphere portal and the sap enterprise portal using jaas.pdf
