Oas vs weblogic

Hello All
1. what are differences betwenn oas and weblogic?
2. can be multiple Weblogic deployments on a single server, thus allowing WLS(webloc server) clustering on a single multi-threaded box. Doing this will save hardware? is it a standard pratice?
3. What are the technical benefits with weblogic?
4. Can VM configuration done through weblogic?
Thanks in advance
Regards
Snini

1)
OAS is the old application server from oracle which only supports JEE 1.4 where as WLS is the new Oracle application server which supports JEE 1.5 and coming.
WLS is base no the well known BEA Weblogic server.
2)
sure you can deploy multiple apps on one server or build a cluster and deploy to the cluster (multiple deployments of one app). If this saves hardware is a different question, I personally can't answer right now.
3)
WLS is the future actual and future application server from oracle. In a couple of years (>5-10) oas will be history. I'm not even sure the oracle will develop anything new for oas.
4)
Yes you can configure the VM using the WLS admin onsole. In my opinion you can configurate WLS better then oas.

Upgrade from OAS to weblogic server - Oracle reports impact

Hi Team,
We have quite lot reports are created in oracle reports 10g and used in production environment. We have plan to upgrade systems and i would like to know the impact in reports which are created using oracle reports 10g.
Currently, we are using
Oracle Database 10g
Oracle reports 10g
OAS 10g
and we are planning to migrate to
Oracle Database 11g
OAS -- > Weblogic application server.
Will my existing reports work in weblogic application server without any change? OR Do i need to change the existing reports.
Could somebody help me on this.
Thanks,

Let me tell you, brother, it can be a real headache, starting with the upgrade process.
For example, I've Got x86 Solaris running on an old Dell box. Created a Boot Environment for my existing setup.
Now I'm trying to clone the Boot Environment so that I can do the Live Upgrade. However I'm getting an error when I use the lucreate command.

OAS vs Weblogic vs Websphere

Hello
Any one have any advantages/disadvantages of using OAS instead of Weblogic or Weblogic instead ? We are currently implementing an OS390 DB2 GL and looking to push OAS (unless I shouldn't).
Regards,
Steve

I find that an Application Server consists of 2 parts:
1) the J2EE engine and services
2) the kitchen sink
The first part is pretty much standard across the board. A few minor changes, mostly in the administration areas, between the listed ones.
The second part is the differentiator. You basically need to evaluate what you are trying to accomplish and then decide how much you want to write on your own, how much you want to purchase.
If you look at 'the rest' in Oracle's offerings, there are a LOT of services that are included at each of the progressively larger editions - a number of which come as separately priced add-on products, third-party products or extrapriced options in other app server environments. (The same is true in any direction - Oracle has extra priced options as well.)
One surprise that often comes up is that Oracle provides services that your org may already have purchased or reviewed. If looked at carefully, there may be a way of recovering some cost from this scenario, but it takes careful review.
There is also a religious side to the discussion as well - some people have figured out the deficiencies to their favorite product and the workarounds. In some cases that marriage is so tight they would rather throw more money at licenses for product 'x' than switch to a suite that has an integrated solution.
SO my bold statement is : very little [dis]advantage at the core J2EE level between them. For the rest, it depends on the level of use and integration you need from the kitchen sink.

Should I do AIA on OAS or WebLogic?

A product-related kind of question on the AIA product:
I see that the Installation Instructions for AIA 2.4 come with full details for OAS (OC4J) while the WebLogic installation instructions are totally missing from the Installation Guide.
As a result a newcomer to the AIA product (who is free on choosing any App Server, and at the same time is not very knowledgable on performing "workaround installations") would most likely give priority in choosing the OC4J server for his AIA installation.
On the other hand, my understanding was that choosing the WebLogic server is more advantageous in terms of its superior capabilities and the emphasis that Oracle is giving to it for long-term supportability, etc.
Thus, this is why I'm having this dilemma and I thought of bringing it up to this forum for some helpful insight:
1. If I had the option of starting a totally new AIA environment today, should I choose it to run on OAS (OC4J) or on WebLogic app server?
2. Does the absense of WebLogic server AIA installation instructions in the AIA Installation Guide relays the message that AIA should preferrably be installed with OC4J? and if so, why WebLogic shouldn't be preferred?
Hope you have some insight on the "philosophical" questions above and thank you very much for joining in advance,
Alex.

Hi Alex,
1) AIA on OAS is easy to setup comparing to AIA on Weblogic
2) PIPs are available only for OC4J, So you can't use PIP if you did Weblogic setup.
My suggestion is, as you are new to AIA please go ahead with AIA on OAS setup.
Friends please post your comments.
Thanks & Regards,

Special Character in Web Service using OAS and Weblogic

In the project, we are using OAS be the app server, all the "<" in the context of xml in web service are converted to "<" automatically.
However, when we deploy it to weblogic, the "<" was converted to "&<;&"
Then another app try to unmarshalling it, but the app cannot handle the < the throw the exception. Do you know why the how to change it back to "<"?

Ha Ha,
I found that one of the Spring WS lib we were using is 1.5.4.
It seems OAS ship with WS lib and the app use the OAS lib.
But weblogic did not have WS lib, then app need to use it's own lib. Then problem occur.
After change to version 1.5.8, the problem solved.

Migration from OAS 10g to Weblogic 10.3

Hello,
I migrate large app from OAS 10g to Weblogic 10.3.
1.
The main part of the job was to prepare descriptors for Weblogic. Unfortunatelly I don't find any tool that could do the job:( There are some problems with descriptors namespaces. This schema and namespaces given in 10.3 docs are not working (not available):
http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs103/ejb/DD_defs_reference.html
So I use the one from 10 release in weblogic-ejb-jar.xml:
weblogic-ejb-jar xmlns="http://www.bea.com/ns/weblogic/10.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.bea.com/ns/weblogic/10.0 http://www.bea.com/ns/weblogic/10.0/weblogic-ejb-jar.xsd">
and form 9 release in weblogic-cmp-rdbms-jar.xml:
<weblogic-rdbms-jar xmlns="http://www.bea.com/ns/weblogic/90" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.bea.com/ns/weblogic/90 http://www.bea.com/ns/weblogic/90/weblogic-rdbms20-persistence.xsd">
There are also some bugs in docs about ejb relations.
After fixing some schema compliance exc this step success.
2. Next the EJBComplianceChecker - its much more restrictive than OAS verification. So updates in ejb interfaces are necessary. It is not a problem with small app but when there ale a lot of code/branches to migrate it's become a problem. I have been looking for some switch that could help with this but with no result/
EJBComplianceChecker - Spec veryfication level
3. Now after EJB compliance checker done its job with success I have an exception that I do not understand:
An error occurred during activation of changes, please see the log for details.
Exception
preparing module: EJBModule(corpo_ejb.jar)
Unable to deploy EJB: corpo_ejb.jar from corpo_ejb.jar:
There are 1 nested errors:

at
weblogic.ejb.container.ejbc.EJBCompiler.doCompile(EJBCompiler.java:357)
at

Could you please give me some point where the problem could be? I don't have any idea where to start looking for..
What are your experiences with migrations from OAS to Weblogic 10?

Hi Stoigniew Sztank,
I am working on migrating Enterpirse application developed using Struts, Ejb2.0, JMS. Its been deployed on OAS 10G and Websphere, but I need to deploy the application on Weblogic 10.3. It seems you have migrated a J2ee application from OAS 10G to Weblogic 10.3. Please can you list me the steps that you followed to migrate the application.
As per my understanding follwing things needsto be taken care of:-
1) Weblogic Descriptor files:
1.1 Weblogic.xml:- we added security roles and ejb-reference-description for the ejbs.
1.2 Weblogic-ejb-jar.xml for all the ejbs used in the application.
1.3 Weblogic-application.xml
1.4 Resource Adapter
2) JMS queue set up
3) JDBC set up
It would be a great help if you can let me know what are the steps to migrate the application.
Thanks and Regards
Deepak Dani

Migrate from OAS 10 to Weblogic 11

Hi !!!
I need to migrate from OAS 10 to Weblogic 11, is there some tutorials you could suggets me about it ?
Thanks.

In this forum we commonly cover foreign database to Oracle migrations. To get an answer for your question about migration OAS to Weblogic you should post your question in the weblogic/OAS forum.

OBIEE web server - OAS or Oracle Weblogic

Hi,
I want to know which web server is better for deploying OBIEE (OAS or Weblogic).
What is the difference between them?
Thanks,
Vino

no problems using stand alone OC4J.... looks like you are fishing for the server still.. i thought u had couple of servers and was confused what to use....
>
Any specfic Oracle Site where we can see about licensing and product prices
Thanks
VinoHello Sir! LOL! Are you new to Oracle? :-)
just for overview of the prices.......https://shop.oracle.com/pls/ostore/f?p=ostore:home:0

Diferences between OAS & WebLogic

Whats the diference between OAS and WebLogic? I'm DBA and never pay attention about this products.
Thanks.

I'd like to know the advantages one has over the other. Like what WebLogic does well that OAS does not and what OAS does well that WebLogic does not. or maybe they're both the same. It's a little confusing since Oracle kept both of them around.

OAS10g to Weblogic 11gR1

We have a JSF application completely developed in JDeveloper 10.1.3 with ADF and Toplink, which is developed on OAS 10gR3 in oc4j. We will soon start working on migrating this to Oracle WebLogic Server 11g R1.
With the OAS and Weblogic merge I am a little unsure of the best approach to this migration.
Would the current project deploy into the weblogic server, or would we need to rebuild it completely in JDeveloper 11?
Does oc4j work in Oracle WebLogic Server 11g R1?
Does anyone have any lessoned learned that they would care to share?
I saw that Toplink is supported in the Oracle WebLogic Server 11g R1, has anyone had any problems migrating from 10g?
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thank is advance for the info.

I think "JDeveloper 10.1.3 uses an older version of JSF that WebLogic 11g. You would be best upgrading your app with JDeveloper 11g and then re-deploying".
OC4J does not works in Oracle WebLogic 11g, WebLogic provides its own j2ee container.
Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g introduces a new architecture, based on Oracle WebLogic Server. You should get familiar with the new 11g features before starting your upgrade. Please check:

LDAP authenticator setting in Weblogic 10

Hi there,
I am a newbie to weblogic. I am migrating an application from OAS to Weblogic 10. The application is using LDAP for login. I am havng a trouble to set up those users in weblogic console.
Here is what I did:
in web.xml:
<security-constraint>
<display-name>Example Security Constraint</display-name>
<web-resource-collection>
<web-resource-name>Protected Area</web-resource-name>
<url-pattern>*</url-pattern>
<http-method>*</http-method>
</web-resource-collection>
<auth-constraint>
<role-name>UserRole</role-name>
</auth-constraint>
</security-constraint>
<security-role>
<login-config>
<auth-method>FORM</auth-method>
<realm-name>RegularUser</realm-name>
<form-login-config>
<form-login-page>/login.jsp</form-login-page>
<form-error-page>/loginerror.jsp</form-error-page>
</form-login-config>
</login-config>
<role-name>UserRole</role-name>
</security-role>
In Weblogic.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252"?>
<weblogic-web-app xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.bea.com/ns/weblogic/weblogic-web-app http://www.bea.com/ns/weblogic/weblogic-web-app/1.0/weblogic-web-app.xsd" xmlns="http://www.bea.com/ns/weblogic/weblogic-web-app">
<security-role-assignment>
<role-name>UserRole</role-name>
<externally-defined/>
</security-role-assignment>
</weblogic-web-app>
In Weblogic console, I created a new realm called RegularUser and setup LDAP authenticator. User Base DN is ou=axxx,dc=bxxx,dc=cxx. I can see those users already in the user list.
Did I miss any step?
Thanks

Thanks, Faisal.
Here is my config.xml. Do I need to select Custom Roles at the time of deployment? I manually deployed the application in console.

Hello all,
I've moved my web-application from weblogic 10.0.0 to the new platform with Weblogic 10.3.3. After this I had some JMSEceptions (unable to run JMS methods inside of servlet or EJB) and they were fixed. For now I got new exception:

Seems that it happened due to updating weblogic version (changes in jee, jms, ejb, jpa versions?). Could you please advice me how to fix this issue?
Thanks, Ilya

I belive there is no problems for this change, because the versions are the same for java at least for OaS, for weblogic you should see documentation. I think you can try deploying you app to new environment if you get any noclassdeffound error or something like it then you could have problems for versions.

Deploying Hyperion 9.3.1 to 64-bit WebLogic. Is it supported?

Hi Guys,
We have the following Hyperion components (9.3.1) running on a 64-bit AIX server. We are using Oracle Application server (OAS) 10.1.3.1 as the applicatiom server.
(1) HSS
(2) Workspace
(3) Financial Reporting
(4) Planning
(5) EAS
(6) APS
(7) Essbase
We are thinkg of migrating from OAS to WebLogic 9.2 (64-bit). However, we are not sure whether it is supported or not. Does anyone can share his/her experience on this? Thank you very much.
Regards,
nww

Check out the Support Matrix for Java Application Servers and Web Servers. Looks like Only 32-bit application servers are supported.

BO XI3.1 SP3 to SP6.3 Upgrade

Hi,
We have BOXI3.1 SP3 FP3.1 with Oracle Application Server on Solaris.
We have planned to upgrade to FP6.3 and the path will be SP4 + SP6 + FP6.3.
Also in SP6 OAS is not supported, so we will use weblogic server.
Could you please suggest the sequence of action that I will be following.
Below steps I am thinking not sure if they are correct or is there any short steps.
Stop all services except CMS
Apply SP4
<what actions needed ? Do I need to deploy war files and start BO and keep only CMS up?>
Apply SP6 <Do I need to take any special care here ? CMS database is in Oracle 11gR2>
<Do I need to deploy in weblogic ?><What else I need to take care ?>
Apply FP6.3
Generate war files and deploy
<Any other thing I need to take care>
<Any special consideration for weblogic>
currently the server java is 1.5. Do I need to upgrade the server jav ? If yes then at what stage of upgrade ?
It will be great help if you advise me on this.
Regards,
Amaresh

Hello,
first of all, are you aware that already SP7 is available for XI 3.1?! If you need to update anyhow you should consider update to SP7.
I would procced as follows (My assumption is that XI 3.1 is on the same Host as the OAS and WebLogic):
1. Stop all Services
2. Make a Backup of the CMS DB and the FRS
3. Start only CMS, IFRS and OFRS
4. Update to SP4
5. Update to SP6
6. Update to SP6 Fix Pack 3
7. Configure the WebLogic to JDK 7 (JDK 6 is out of support by Oracle)
8. Re- deploy Web Applications
9. Start everything

PDF printing by Apache FOP : what are the prerequisites ?

Hello,
I'm actually looking for a way to print reports, and I've 2 questions :
1) If I'm not wrong there are three means : BI Publisher, Apache FOP and an other XSL-FO like Cocoon...
-> For budgetary reasons, we can't use BI Publisher.
-> Besides, my company owns the Oracle Standard Edition, so I'm not even sure we can use Apache FOP : in every documentation FOP is deployed in App Server or Enterprise Manager, and we don't have those. OC4J seems installed on our server but it may not work without Application Server...
-> So is Cocoon the solution ?
2) We're about installing Apex 4.0. We want to be able to print interactive reports, with aggregations and sums. Does it possible and are there differences between report engines ?
Thanks a lot !

Hi Fanny,
I stand to be corrected, but my understanding regarding OC4J licensing is this.
OC4J can be downloaded and installed in standalone configuration from OTN under the OTN license, which is fairly restrictive and means that it cannot be used for production or commercial purposes. This applies whether it is installed on the database server or on a separate server. In order to license it you need to buy an OAS or Weblogic license. This is in contrast to Oracle's HTTP server, which can be installed standalone and is included in the database server license provided it is installed on the same server as the database. If the HTTP server is installed on a separate server to the database then it too requires an OAS or Weblogic license.
My guess for this anomally is that the HTTP server is based on Apache, an open source product and it was originally installed as part of the database up until version 9i. After that it was separated out as a companion product. Where as OC4J is based on a proprietary product called Onion, which Oracle acquired. Commercially going forward, Oracle is pushing Weblogic. If you want a free app server then you can opt for the free version of Glassfish, an Oracle product or Tomcat.
If you do need a supported environment you can also get Standard One versions of Weblogic and OAS which are considerably cheaper than the Enterprise versions and you can get a supported version of Glasfish for around the same cost.
You should also note that Oracle BI plus OAS or Weblogic is a complete development and deployment product for business intelligence reporting, whereas Apache FOP and an app server is purely a deployment environment. If you wish to do something more sophisticated than the standard PDF option available in Apex, which is pretty basic, you will need to acquire some sort of XSL-FO production tool. As alluded to previously, Java4less produce a minimally priced one, but there are others in the market place.
