OC4J 9.0.4 and 9iAS 9.0.3

Hi,
I have an application which a vendor is designing for us which is ready to be deployed on OC4J. I have been asked to help set up an application server, and we are currently trying to set up 9iAS Release 2 (9.0.3)
I have been told by the vendor that they are running the application on standalone OC4J, and that version 9.0.4 is required. Will the application work on the full AS, (I am guessing not?) and if not, is there likely to be a release of AS with the 9.0.4 version of OC4J in it?
I have recently looked around the Oracle site to find a place to download 9.0.4 standalone, but all I seem to be able to find is 10g now. This is rather confusing, and I was wondering if anyone could clarify whether the bracketing numbering refers to the version of OC4J in the AS?
I am also wondering whether I can upgrade the OC4J component or not, or whether I should just ask our UNIX contractor to install OC4J stand alone?

AFAIK the release of OC4J in 9iASR2 has number 9.0.2 and doesn't fully support EJB 2.0 and Servlet 2.3 specification. Standalone OC4J relase 9.0.4 is available as a developer preview. I downloaded it a few days ago.

Michal

  • Can we replace oc4j 9.0.2 in 9iAS 9.0.2 infrastructure with oc4j 9.0.3 ?

    Hi all,
    We want to use OC4J 9.0.3 because of it support of JMS and new J2EE features. We want to use the complete 9ias 9.0.2 EE (which is infrastructure) because the OID and SSO support.
    I know the NOTE
    ** NOTE: OC4J Standalone is purely for standalone purposes. This version CANNOT be used to replace the OC4J running in ANY existing Oracle9iAS Installation.
    but, because of the business requirements, can we do so?
    what kind of issues we will have if we do so??
    I read some docs about creating new OC4J instances using dcmctl and OEM. Can I go through the same steps to create a OC4J 9.0.3 in 9ias???
    or is there any alternatives for this??
    thanks for any help...

    I asked this on Metalink and oracle said you cannot upgrade/replace it with the 903 version with any installs using BI or Portal/Wireless.

  • Diff between Oracle 9i database and 9ias application server.

    Can any one brief in detail the difference between Oracle 9i database and 9ias application server.

    Hi,
    Your question is the answer. Oracle9i Database manages all your eBusiness data and Oracle9iAS runs all your eBusiness
    applications. In a 3 tier architecture, Oracle9i Database fits in the Database tier where as Oracle9iAS fits in the middle
    tier. Oracle9iAS provides an infrastructure to run different types of applications(J2EE thru OC4J, Forms applns, Portal
    based applns, Wireless applns etc..)
    Cheers !

  • Can we install OC4J R3 on top of 9iAS R2 Enterprise Edition

    Can we install the OC4J R3 on top of 9iAS R2 Enterprise Edition?
    We were able to install the OC4J R3 on top 9iAS R1 EE, but not on 9iAS R2 EE, any clues on this?
    Thank you
    H.M.Mallik

    ummm I assume that we can not easily upgrade OC4J from 9.0.2 to 9.0.3 in an Oralce 9iAS App Server R2 Enterprise Edition, but is there any workaround for this? bcas we want to use the advanced features of OC4J 9.0.3 relese and want to use the JAAS/JAZN with SSO that is supported by 9iAS EE R2. Or can we use the JAZN/LDAP/OID just with plain OC4J ?
    Thank you
    H.M.Mallik
    OC4J is tightly integrated with Oracle9iAS and is also used internally Oracle9iAS to provide basic services e.g. EM, Portal, Wireless, etc. and is tested by Oracle and for that reason you can just upgrade the OC4J inside Oracle9iAS. There will be production of Oracle9iAS 9.0.3 (J2EE-Webcache edition) that will have production release of OC4J 9.0.3 and this will be sometime next month.

  • Can we install OC4J R3 on top of 9iAS Enterprise Edition R2 App Server?

    Can we install OC4J R3 on top of 9iAS Enterprise Edition R2 App server?
    We were able to get the OC4J R3 on top or 9iAS EE R1 , but could not configure OC4J R3 on top 9iAS EE R2 App Server, any clue on this?
    Thank you
    H.M.Mallik

    Are you talking about the "Developers Preview" (v 9.0.3)? That is a stand-alone version, and cannot be associated with Infrastructure. When the production version comes out, it will work with the infrastructure.

  • Oc4j 9.0.3 and j2sdk1.4.0

    Hi,
    I'm new to OC4J, even though I am an experient java programmer. I copied a file called test.jsp which is working with Tomcat to the j2ee\home\default-web-app directory and then I tried to access it through the following URL: http://localhost:8888/test.jsp
    I get the following error:

    I have j2sdk1.4.0 installed and working properly. I am using version 9.0.3 of OC4J. It seems to me that oc4j 9.0.3 and j2sdk1.4.0 cannot work together. Has anyone passed through this? Can anyone help me out?

  • 9i DB and 9iAS

    Need help in setting up 9iDB and 9iAS 1.0.2.2.1 on the same box
    running solaris 8.
    My question is, can I run these two on the same box, if so how?

    yes, you need to install infra and apps instance using same user account
    also, install infra and instance on the other servers, as it needs lot of memory.
    you may end up hanging your system

  • Installing Oracle 9i Database and 9iAS on the same machine

    I have read conflicting comments about this. Will Oracle 9i and 9iAS work if installed on the same server ?
    I have seen a note before that the ORACLE_HOME will conflict if done.
    However, for 8i it has been stated "the OAS does not seem to conflict with the Oracle 8i database, so select the default ORACLE_HOME to install".
    Can you give me the diffinitive answer for 9i for this.
    Many Thanks

    I performed the installation and used a different Oracle_Home and had no issues. Now configuring Portal was another story...

  • Forms6i and 9iAS

    I would appreciate if anyone can share their experiences with running web enabled forms. We are considering developing mission critical application for 70 users in Oracle Forms, but we want to make sure this is the way to go.
    If you could tell me your experience with Forms performance, CPU load, what type of network bandwith is required. Is it stable? Any other thoughts?
    Thank you
    Dragana Solarov

    Hi,
    That is really great!! We are now, in the process of migrating our earlier Forms3.0 based applications to 6i/9iAS. Thank you for giving this encouraging news, boosting our confidence. Though, we are still not that clear about the changes in the hardware configurations that our clients have to make, that Oracle paper about 6iscalability has really given more light to it. Could you please give additional suggestions..
    Again, thank you..
    Regards,
    Ranjith..
    hi there,
    i am currently working in Govt Dept in sydney and we have system supporting more than 250 users which is build around 6i and 9iAS .
    we had few issuses when we changed to 9iAS but mostly all sorted out now .

  • OC4J instance for OHW and Forms

    I have developed a application by using Oracle Forms9i and Oracle AS. Now I am creating a help system for this application and I am using OHW(I installed OHW bundle Demo 2.0.8). The problem is: when I run my application, I have to start OC4J for it, but it is not the same as for OHW, I cannot start OC4J for OHW at the same time, and vice versa.
    Is there any way to solve it? I think it should be. Please help. Thanks.

    The OHW demo bundle was designed to quickly get you up and running to test your helpset and sample various OHW features. In addition, it is a fine solution if you want a standalone server somewhere hosting OHW.
    If you have an application deployed to OC4J, then you will have to deploy OHW to that same app server. Thus, you would have a single OC4J running your application and OHW.

  • Linux and 9iAS Installation -  Some Effort Finding The Easy Way

    I'm reading forums and documention for days. During the past 12 months, I spent more time as administrator of 'my versions' of Portal and 9iAS then in development process. Now, I'm ready to start clean instalation on Linux, reather then another upgrade.
    I found that 9iAS 1.0.2.2.x is certified with 9i Database, but... Always there is some but...
    Also, I expirienced problems with diferent distributions / versions of Linux.
    Try start with hypotesis that:
    1. I have not any prefered LINUX distribution or version.
    2. Database 8.1.7.1 or 9i - no prejudice.
    What combination can satisfy one simple criteria - clean and quick instalation - no tricks, no cheating. Just simple StepByStep guide.
    Is RedHat7.2 + 9i + 9iAS 1.0.2.2.1 OK.?
    Or RedHat6.2 + 8.1.7 + 1.0.2.2.1 ?
    Or some Suse + ... ?
    ... anything that works ;)
    ciao
    ''''Srdjan

    OK. We made some progress :)
    It looks like Suse is more Oracle friendly than RH :)
    Damir, thanks for useful link.
    In this moment, we can assume that:
    - >>Suse7.2 + 9iAS 1.0.2.2.1<< will work fine.
    - >>9i database + RH or Suse 7.x<<, too (according to link provided by Damir, there is acceptable procedure to get these things together).
    BUT, what is with combination
    9iAS 1.0.2.2.1 + 9i Database (9.0.1)<<?Is there real compatibility within these two products, or there is just casual sharing of small italic i and some numbers in their names :)
    ciao

  • Which flavour of Linux to choose for database 9i Rel2 and 9iAS rel2

    I am getting the Oracle 9i rel2 and 9iAS rel2 from OTN (OTN Tracks) for Linux.
    I wih to know what flavour of Linux to choose (Red Hat or Suse).
    Again this is only for my own PC.
    Any suggestion?
    Thanks,

    Thank you! Do I need to apply any special O/S patches first?

  • OC4J 9.0.3 Standalone and 9iAS 9.0.2 mid-tier

    We are currently running Forms9i and Reports 9i services on a mid-tier installation of Oracle9iAS 9.0.2. (Solaris). We have also developed some JDeveloper 9.0.3 applications that need to be deployed onto the same server. I understand from previous discussions on both Metalink and OTN Discussion Forums that it is not possible to upgrade the OC4J components of the mid-tier installation to 9.0.3 as the Forms9i and Reports 9i services are only certified to work with 9iAS 9.0.2.
    My next question is can I install Oracle9iAS Release 2 OC4J 9.0.3 standalone components into a separate ORACLE_HOME from the mid-tier 9iAS 9.0.2 in order to deploy the JDeveloper 9.0.3 applications ?.
    Regards,
    Chris

    hello,
    i am not sure how you invoke report services from your java application. i assume you are using a URL to access the report. in that case your application will still be able to point back to the 902 servlet to access reports services.
    regarding the use of classes on the 903 application : reports services can only access classes that are in its classpath. so if you can put the classes you need in reports' classpath defined by the environment of the 902 instance you should be able to access it.
    you might also look into our Thin Client that is available here on OTN. http://otn-stage.us.oracle.com/products/reports/htdocs/getstart/examples/Tools/index.html

  • TopLink and 9iAS/OC4J 9.0.2

    We are working on project that have
    to work with 9iAS/OC4J 9.0.2, upgrade
    to OC4J 9.0.3 in NOT an option.
    Our J2EE application will only use
    Servlets/JSP (NO EJBs), we need
    to do O/R mapping from Servlets to db.
    How can we install / use TopLink (9.0.3
    or earlier version) from 9iAS/OC4J 9.0.2 ?
    Regards, Radomir.

    Hi Radomir,
    This shouldn't be a problem, the easiest way to set things up would be to place the TopLink.jar file in the \j2ee\home\lib folder of OC4J v9.0.2. If there is something specific that you would like answered in terms of application deployment or setup and configurations, just ask.
