Linux Web Cache Standalone Documentation

Hello, I have downloaded the as_linux_x86_webcache_101202.cpio, however I am unable to find the installation documentation, it does not come with the download and I am also unable to find it on OTN. Can some direct me to where I may be able to locate this document? Regards Stephen

Again bit late comment but just in case if you haven't yet found the solution.
Yes, you can use this file (as_linux_x86_webcache_101202.cpio) to install Standalone Web Cache. You can also install it off of Oracle Application Server Companion CD.
I tried it and when I extract this file here is what I see:
$ ls -l
total 285780
-rw-r--r-- 1 oracle dba 292340224 Sep 17 15:14 as_linux_x86_webcache_101202.cpio
drwxr-xr-x 5 oracle dba 4096 Dec 1 2005 Disk1
$cd Disk1
$ls -l
total 20
drwxr-xr-x 4 oracle dba 4096 Dec 1 2005 install
-rwxr-xr-x 1 oracle dba 5189 Dec 1 2005 runInstaller
drwxr-xr-x 9 oracle dba 4096 Dec 1 2005 stage
drwxr-xr-x 4 oracle dba 4096 Dec 1 2005 utils
So there it (runInstaller) is under Disk1 directory.
Thanks

10g Web Cache standalone download file

The 10g (9.0.4) Web Cache standalone downloaded file is named webcache_9.0.4.0.0_linux.tar.tar.
When I run "tar xvf" on the file it gives the error "tar: directory checksum error".
Can someone at Oracle please provide a good file to download?
Thank you.

Help on Setting up Web Cache.

Hi,
I need help for setting up OAS Web Cache, whether the following setup is correct. I’m new to this.
When I login to http://server2.domain.com:8300/appname1/, the display URL is changed to http://server2.domain.com:7778/appname1/. However there is no activity in the Web Cache Statistics.
We have OAS Web Cache standalone installed on one server using port 80 (e.g. server1.domain.com) and OAS Application Server (HTTP & J2EE) installed on another server using port 7777 (e.g. server2.domain.com).
Currently, when our user login to the application, they use the following URLs:
http://server2.domain.com:8300/appname1/
http://server2.domain.com:19000/appname2/
I have setup OAS Web Cache as follows:
Listen Ports:
     Cache Name: server1.domain.com-WebCache
     IP Address: ANY
     Port: 7778
Origin Servers:
     Host: server2.domain.com
     Port: 7778
     Routing: enabled
     Ping URL: /
     Protocol: HTTP
Site definitions (two entries)
     Hostname: server1.domain.com
     Port: 80
     URL Path Prefix: (blank)
     Default: No
     Aliases (Host Name: None, Port: N/A, URL Path Prefix: N/A)
     Hostname: server2.domain.com
     Port: 7778
     URL Path Prefix: /
     Default: No
     Aliases (Host Name: None, Port: N/A, URL Path Prefix: N/A)
Site to Server Mapping:
     Site                    Origin Server
Priority Host Name     Port URL Path Prefix ESI Content Policy Host Name     Port
1 server2.domain.com 8300 /appname1/ Unrestricted      server2.domain.com     7778
2 server2.domain.com 19000 /appname2/ Unrestricted      server2.domain.com     7778
3 server2.domain.com 7777 Unrestricted      server2.domain.com     7778
4     *      7777 Exclude Fragments server2.domain.com     7778
5     *      *           Exclude Fragments server2.domain.com     7778
And in server2.domain.com, the following has been set in httpd.conf
ServerName server2.domain.com
UseCanonicalName On
Port 7777
Listen 7777
Listen 7778
Listen 19000
<VirtualHost server2.domain.com:8300>
     Port 7778
</VirtualHost>
Any advise is appreciated.
Thanks,
Lian

as mentioned above, All that you need is a optical cable (a toslink) and that will provide you with the 5.1 sound output. BUT and this is important, the Game or Movie must support 5.1 for you to get 5.1 sound (not a lot of Mac games have 5.1 output) also you will need to ensure that you setup the right settings on your sound Preference panel. You dont need any additional boxes or cables as long as your 5.1 speaker system accepts 5.1 audio via digital toslink (eg optical cable). the z5500 is suitable and will give you 5.1 sound if used with a game or movie that has 5.1 sound output.
Good luck and enjoy the sound

Standalone webcache or Web cache from Oracle Apps Server 10.1.2.0.2?

Hi
I am installing web cache on two servers in web tier and J2EE server (with OHS) on another two servers in apps tier. Should I use standalone webcache or install from Oracle Apps Server package? If I choose Oracle Apps Server package, I have to disable Home, HTTP components. But it is DCM managed. Any suggestions?
And should I deploy my OHS servers on web cache servers in the web tier? In future we want to expand J2EE installation, we will deploy Portal with SSO, OID etc.
Regards
Shen Jie

Shen Jie,
Please review the Enterprise Deployment to see what are the best architectures.
Hope this helps.

BIP Behind Standalone Web Cache

Hi,
I have installed BIP 10.1.3.2.1 behind a standalone web cache (10.1.2.2.0), and I am having redirect issues. Meaning, BIP redirects the client to the BIP server at login, and content is not returned through the web cache. Can BIP be configured to run behind a web cache? I couldn't find any info on this forum, the web cache forum, or the manuals. Thanks for the help
Thanks,
Greg

Hi Tim,
I also have created a TAR, 6285316.994, but I haven't gotten much feedback at this point. Thank you for looking into this.

Web cache documentation

Hi everyone,
I've installed Oracle9i Application Server(v1.0.2.2.2) for Windows NT/2000, on two single nodes with the repository on a Windows 2000 Cluster.
I would like to configure Web Cache for load balancing, where is it possible to find documentation about Administering Web Cache, considering that on OTN there is the one related to the last release of OAS?
Regards
Fabrizio

You can use webcache 902 with 9iAS r1, the later version of webcache is a preferrable option and works just fine.

FRM-92101: Load Balancing Forms 10g with Web Cache

Hi,
IÂ´m having some problems with Oracle Forms and Webcache 10g and I was wondering if you
could help.
Machines: (Pentium IV 2.6 GHz; 2GB RAM; 80GB HD)
A. Red Hat Linux AS 2.1
Oracle AS 10g - Infrastructure Installation
B. Windows 2000 Server - Service Pack 4
Oracle AS 10g - BI and Forms Installation (Using Infrastructure on machine A)
C. Windows 2000 Server - Service Pack 4
Oracle AS 10g - BI and Forms Installation (Using Infrastructure on machine A)
I didnÂ´t apply any Patchsets of Oracle AS 10g. My current version is 9.0.4.0 .
Goal:
Use Oracle Webcache 10g on machine B for Load Balancing an Oracle Forms Application
on machines B and C.
Facts:
The Oracle AS 10g installation on the 3 machines was made without problems.
The Forms Applications are running without problems on both Forms servers in machine B and C.
Symptoms:
IÂ´m getting the following error when I try to acces the forms application through Webcache:
FRM-92101: There was a failure in the forms server during startup.
This could happen due to invalid configuration.
Please look in the web-server log file for details.
But, this error happens ONLY when BOTH OC4J_BI_Forms instances (machines B and C) are
running.
When just one of the OC4J_BI_Forms is running everything works fine.
Webcache Configuration:
IÂ´ve followed Metalink note 207668.1: Configuring Web Cache as a Load Balancer for Application Servers
step by step to make the configuration of the following components:
1. Configuration of the origin servers
2. Configuration of Site definitions
3. Configuration of Site to server mapping
After that, IÂ´ve follwed the Metalink note 229900.1: Integrating and using Web Cache with Forms 9i for Load Balancing
step by step to make the configuration of the following components:
4. Session Binding
Then I try to test the Load Balancing and I got the error FRM-92101 when both OC4J_BI_Forms
instance were running.
IÂ´ve searched Metalink and found note 268830.1: Webcache Won't Load Balance 2 Forms Instances.
Following the note instructions I did the following changes:
Added these lines at the end of HTTPD.conf (machine B):
CookieTracking On
CookieName myformscookie1
Added these lines at the end of HTTPD.conf (machine C):
CookieTracking On
CookieName myformscookie2
In Webcache configuration:
IÂ´ve Changed the default session binding from JSESSIONID to "ANY SET COOKIE" for the
site's session binding.
But even after these changes IÂ´m getting FRM-92101 error on the same conditions.
How can I solve this problem ?
Thank you in advance.
Marcus Santos.

Just ran into this problem last Tuesday, Nov.30 and applied the changes today.
My configuration is similar to yours: 9.0.4 web cache on machine A, 9.0.4 10gAS forms and reports standalone on machine B and C (not a cluster, no infra).
I appended the Cookie lines you mentioned in httpd.conf located in $ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/conf in both machines B and C.
One important thing you may have missed. After changing httpd.conf in each 9iAS instance, you need to make the change known to dcmctl so issue:
dcmctl updateConfig -ct ohs
Then do the following for each 9iAS instance and it should be ready for webcache:
dcmctl stop
dcmctl start
Setup Any-set-Cookie in webcache instead of JSESSIONID and the whole thing should now work. You can run a form through machine A which will load balance to either machine B or C (which can both be up). Then, try shutting down 9iAS on machine B or C and run a form again. They now all work.
HTH,
Raffy

Recommended Hardware, OS for Web Cache

We are planning to implement web cache for our 9i AS (Sun Solaris) environment. The Web cache server will be running on its own box. Also, we would like to perform load balance on our web cache tier down the road.
Keeping all this in mind. Could someone provide us the recommended hardware (/w cofiguration) and OS for implementing web cache. Thanks,

Web Cache is designed to run on low-cost commodity hardware. You need at most 2 CPUs (the faster the better) to run
a Web Cache instance. A single CPU machine is OK, too -- again, the faster the better.
For the money, you can't beat a 2x933 Linux box.
Then there's memory. Most 32-bit OSs provide 2GB of addressable memory. You want to make sure there's enough
memory to cache all the content you want to cache. Usually, 2GB is more than enough. 500MB - 1GB is usually sufficient.
Depends on your app.
In a few days, I will post a paper on http://otn.oracle.com/products/ias/web_cache/
that covers the best practices for sizing and performance of Web Cache 2.0.0.x (9iAS 1.0.2.2). This will help you with
sizing.
The network may also be a consideration for performance, as the paper mentioned above discusses.
Readers shoud note that the information in this standalone paper has been moved to the Performance and Tuning Guide
for 9iAS release 2 (version 9.0.2) which is due out shortly. Some of the information will be different in Web Cache 9.0.2 than
it was in Web Cache 2.0.0.x.

IE browser and Web Cache and SSL - Internet Explorer cannot display the web page

When using IE8, IE9, or IE10 with Web Cache and SSL certain pages which display a lot of data returns the error - "Internet Explorer cannot display the web page."
if we eliminate SSL but continue to use Web Cache, the error does *not* reproduce & If we eliminate Web Cache altogether the error again does *not* reproduce. The error is only reproducible when we use SSL with Web Cache and if we use IE and we access *large* pages. The error is not reproducible with Firefox or Chrome. This is a Web Tier 11.1.1.7 installation with WebLogic 10.3.6 & Red Hat Enterprise 5 Linux x86-64

Configure Alternate access mapping-->Edit your web application zone and add your server name in Intranet zone. So default can be serverIP and intranet could be servername.
Workaround 2:
Might be there is some issue with DNS and try to check that WebApplication is pointing to correct IP or not.
Also try to access your Sharepoint site using ip Address .. If you still gets error Kindly share the logs ..

Problem in using OracleAS Web Cache as Load Balancer

I have two machines:
aimssrv.world.com and aimsrep.world.com.
Both of above machines are running Redhat Linux AS 4.
On both machines, I have installed Oracle Forms and Reports 10g Services. I have deployed my application on both machines.
I am able to access my application at aimssrv.world.com by doing:
http://aimssrv.world.com:7778/forms/frmservlet?config=aims
and I am also able to access my application at aimsrep.world.com by doing:
http://aimsrep.world.com:7778/forms/frmservlet?config=aims
I have implemented OracleAS Web Cache at machine aimssrv.world.com, and have enabled the Load Balancing.
In Origin Servers, its showing me two servers:
Host => aimssrv.world.com, PORT=> 7778, Routing=> Enabled, CAPACITY=>100, Failover Threshold=>5, PING URL=>/, PROTOCOL=>HTTP
Host => aimsrep.world.com, PORT=> 7778, Routing=> Enabled, CAPACITY=>100, Failover Threshold=>5, PING URL=>/, PROTOCOL=>HTTP
In Site Definition, I have following information:
Host Name=> aimssrv.world.com, PORT=>7777
In site-to-server mapping, I have following information:
Priority      Host Name      Port      ESI Content Policy      Host Name      Port      Proxy
1      aimssrv.world.com      7777      Unrestricted      aimssrv.world.com      7778      No
aimsrep.world.com      7778                                    No
2      *      7777           Exclude Fragments      aimssrv.world.com      7778      No
3      *      *           Exclude Fragments      aimssrv.world.com      7778      No
In Session Binding, I have selected "JSESSIONID" as session, and "OC4J-based" as session binding mechanism.
Now please guide me as how would I run my application by using the OracleAS Web Cache?
What would be the URL?
Do I need to make any changes in httpd.conf files of aimssrv.world.com and aimsrep.awc.com?
Please guide.
Thanks and regards

hi,
i hv recently configured webcache load-balancing for my 2 mid-tiers.I did not upgrade pre-requisite webcache upgrade patch 4569559 to my 10g rel 2 10.1.2.0.2 OAS and it still worked a bit but I do have some doubts why oracle recommends installing this patch before configuring webcache load-balancing.Have u?
btw u need to collapse all the features of webcache of caching to turn on http load-balancing.U need to add a parameter to internal.xml (LOADBALANCE ON="YES") and register origin servers of both servers with each other and map ur sites so that origin servers of both servers will cater sites of server1 and server2 at the same time.
what worked for me is i registered origin server of server1 at server2 and origin server of server2 at server1 and mapped site of server1 (http://server1:port/forms/frmservlet?config=something) to work with origin server of server2 as well at site-to-server page so that origin servers of both servers will load-balance my server1 site and vice-versa.
But still its not seamless.The initial site request was still being routed to the server which is DOWN first and not seamlessly routed to other server which is UP.Maybe webcache upgrade patch would hv done this seamlessly????

Unable to start web cache Service

Hi,
I have installed 9iAS-10200 version successfully on windows-2000
but in last when it started all the selected services then
It fail to start web cache Service....
In event_log file of web cache error msg is like this :-
0800 -- Information: Max Connect Count exceeds compile time limit - defaulting to connect limit: ( 744 )
What is this error ?//
Web Cache Admin service is running fine..
but cache service is not....
Any body know what may be the Problem...
Thanx in Advance
Akhil

Could be a file descriptor limit problem. But this is the least of your problems. The biggest issue is that the version of Web Cache you are using is over 3 years old. You should upgrade to the latest 9.0.x version or simply download the standalone install from OTN. The URL is http://otn.oracle.com/software/products/ias/devuse.html
This version is backward compatible with prior versions of iAS.

Unable to start Web Cache service on Win2000

Hi,
I am unable to start the Web Cache service.
On startup the service errors out with the error as follows
"The OracleiSuites_homeWebCache service failed to start due to the following error:
The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion."
I tried reinstalling 9iAS but still get the same error.
Please let me know how to resolve this.
Thanks,
Sudin

Hi Ken --
We are just about wrapped up with our Oracle9iAS Release 2 (9.0.3) version for Windows NT. As you've seen, we have released the 903 version for a number of Unix platforms (Solaris, HP-UX, HP-Tru64, Linux) already and the Windows platform will follow shortly.
For the moment, if you're running on Windows and want to use the J2EE 1.3 functionality, you can download the pure Java OC4J 903 distribution available from OTN. This is the same set of Java code that is the 9iAS distribution.
cheers

Oracle Web Cache Administration and Deployment Guide

Does anyone know where the Oracle Web Cache Administration and Deployment Guide is?
From Oracle9iAS Documentation Library CD-ROM,
it says this document is in OTN. However, I just can't find this document in OTN.
Any idea?

Rick -
try this link on for size:
http://technet.oracle.com/docs/products/ias/doc_library/1022doc_otn/caching.102/a90372/toc.htm
To get to the (iAS documentation, try this path through technet
Top Level
-> click documentation link on RHS
-> click Oracle9i Application Server link
-> click Generic Documentation Library link (HTML) or (PDF)
That should get you to the documentation library, from which you can view all the component doc, install guides, performance guides, etc.
