Oracle ifs and BEA weblogic

Oracle ifs and BEA weblogic
We have one application server with weblogic and and ifs 1.0.9 , and one db server with Oracle 8.1.7.
with the following configuration:
Web server
appl server with weblogic 6.0 and ifs 1.1.9
Oracle 8i Enterprise with interMedia text
We need to use the iFS API call for our application.
As I know, weblogic 6.0 support JDK1.3 but ifs 1.1.9 supports up to JDK1.2.
Is this configuration possible?
Any conflict if two version JDK co-exist inside same machine?
Any suggestion?
If I separate the appl. server into two machines, that is,
one server installed with weblogic, the other one installed with ifs.
How could I make use the ifs API call from appl. server?
Is there any configuration guides for this setting?
Thanks a lot.

The iFS API is 100% pure Java. You can use it from any other Java application, be it JSP, EJB, or a standalone application.
So it really comes down to the CLASSPATH. The iFS API is split among a set of .jar files, and some of the configuration information is stored in .properties files that are outside of these .jar files. All of this stuff needs to be in the CLASSPATH of whatever JVM is calling the iFS API.
The iFS API uses the Oracle JDBC driver to communicate with the Oracle database. This is another requirement. You can't use another JDBC driver; you have to use ours.
So again, it's all about configuration.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Would you mind to share more detail on configurating weblogic to integrate the iFS API?

  • XSQL and BEA Weblogic 6.1

    I spent a lot of time trying to figure out how to configure
    the XSQL servlet to run on BEA Weblogic 6.1
    It is really simple once you understand that you should work
    off expanded directory instead of trying to get a .war or .ear
    file uploaded.
    I decided to give my explanation to help others...
    This works with the current XDK (9.0.2.0.0D) on OTN and I got it
    running on Windows 2000 and/or Solaris.
    I based these instructions on Steve Muench for
    "ANN Deploy Oracle XSQL Pages to OC4J" off the OTN web site.
    1) get the latest xdk_java off the OTN web site.
    2) create a directory (or subdirectory) named xsql (to hold the entire application
    3) create /xsql/META-INF
    /xsql/WEB-INF
    /xsql/WEB-INF/lib
    /xsql/WEB-INF/classes
    structure to hold the XSQL servlet
    4) create a /xsql/META-INF/application.xml with the following code:
    <!DOCTYPE application PUBLIC '-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD J2EE Application 1.2//EN'
    'http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/application_1_2.dtd'>
    <application>
    <display-name>Oracle XSQL Servlet</display-name>
    <description>Oracle XSQL Servlet</description>
    <module>
    <web>
    <web-uri>xsql.war</web-uri>
    <context-root>xsql</context-root>
    </web>
    </module>
    </application>
    5) create the file /xsql/WEB-INF/web.xml with the following content
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
    <!DOCTYPE web-app
    PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.2//EN"
    "http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2.2.dtd">
    <web-app>
    <servlet>
    <servlet-name>oracle-xsql-servlet</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>oracle.xml.xsql.XSQLServlet</servlet-class>
    </servlet>
    <servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>oracle-xsql-servlet</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>*.xsql</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>oracle-xsql-servlet</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/xsql/*</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>
    </web-app>
    6)extract the xdk_java (that you copied from the OTN) on a temporary directory. (/otn)
    7) copy the following files (they are in the /otn/lib subdirectory) into /xsql/WEB-INF/lib
    oraclexsql.jar
    xsqlserializers.jar
    xmlparserv2.jar
    xsu12.jar
    8) copy /otn/xdk/admin/XSQLConfig.xml to xsql/WEB-INF/classes
    9) copy the entire directory and subdir /otn/xdk/demo/java/xsql to /xsql/demo
    10) no need to create a war or ear file as Weblogic will work better from the expanded directory
    anyway and it is simpler to implement.
    11) Now you need to copy that entire directory structure /xsql over to the Weblogic Application Server
    config/domain-name/applications area so in my case it is
    /bea/wlserver6.1/config/your_domain/applications/xsql
    12) If Weblogic is running in development mode, it should deploy and load the servlet automatically.
    If it is running in production mode, then we would need to restart it.
    13) You should be able to test this with http://your_host:7001/xsql/demo/index.html
    Any URL that specifies the /xsql will then be treated by the
    XSQL Servlet.
    It works for me...

    Hi Denis,
    I followed your procedure to deploy XSQL Servlet on WebLogic 6.1. First I deployed as expanded directory structure although I turned 'Auto Deployed Enabled' flag to on for my domain, WebLogic couldn't pick up the application. Then I tried to create ear application and deployed it (In your message you are saying that don't need to create ear or war, you mean this is not just a necessity or it never could be deployed as ear/war files). I saw on the as deployed on console but when I tried the http://myhost:7001/xsql/demo/index.html, I got the following error message.
    Oracle XDK Java 9.2.0.2.0 Production
    XSQL-013: XSQL Page URI is null or has an invalid format.
    Oracle XDK Java 9.2.0.2.0 Production
    XSQL-013: XSQL Page URI is null or has an invalid format.
    Can you help me to trouble shoot this problem? Thank you very much

  • Deploying MDB on BEA WebLogic 7.0 to listen to Oracle AQ

    Hello All:
    I have been tasked to create a MDB that will listen to a queue in AQ. What I am curious about, however, is if anyone has ever had any experience in configuring the WebLogic server so it can interface with, and listen to, AQ?
    I am going to create a concrete sender class to handle the transmission of messages inside the network, but the design goal, for scalability purposes, is to use a MDB to listen to the queue. We cannot use any Oracle Application Server or Web Server per my client's directives.
    Please help. Thanks.

    I am very interested in viewing your information on Oracle AQ and BEA 8.1 but the link you provided,
    http://marvel.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=17000:8:25148205767784132
    displays an error page with the following message:
    ORA-01400: cannot insert NULL into ("DEVTRENDS"."WWC_ASK_QUESTION_ACCESS_LOG$"."DISPLAYID")
    I would really appreciate some help I have been hunting for documentation on how to access AQ from a Java. I am trying to write a JCA adapter for BEA WLS 8.1 to access the AQ for integration purposes.

  • XMLSPY Special Edition for BEA WebLogic 8.1 and WLS 8.1 sp2

    Hi,
    I'm a newbie for WebLogic Server. I started with WLS 8.1 sp2 since I got the book "J2EE Applications and BEA WebLogic Server 2nd Edition" which was written for WLS 8.1.
    While XMLSPY Special Edition for BEA WebLogic (version 5.4 something, built in 2003) is indeed packaged with WLS 8.1 sp2 and can be installed, but it'll pop up a window (ALTOVA License Manager) everytime when I try to use it. This window pops up because the license key is not installed during the installation and therefore can't be used unless a valid key is provided.
    I wonder whether I really need to get XMLSPY Special Edition for BEA WebLogic 8.1 working in order to use WLS 8.1 just for the purpose of learning. If so, can someone share with me the the key-code for XMLSPY Special Edition for BEA WebLogic 8.1 please?
    BTW, I tried to find something useful to this question/problem at ALTOVA website, no luck at all.
    Thank you very much.
    JF

    Hi Ravi,
    Thanks very much for your very helpful reply.
    I got into the problem with xmlspy while I was trying to figure out why the WLS admin console missing the left pane/sidebar. There was only one non-expandable dot sign at the lefttop in the admin console. When I right-click on that little dot icon, the pulldown menu shows one option is to use XMLSPY to check (something along that line). Also, I see the XMLSPY button at the left bottom of my W2003 windows (just next to IE button). So, either way when I invoked XMLSPY I would get that pop up window which tells me there choices: type in a key-code, request for a trial key, or buy a license key. But eventually, I figured out the way to fix my problem - installing a newer version of j2sdk code. However, I wasn't sure whether the xmlspy issue would a hidden problem further down the road for me to learn WLS 8.1.
    You're absoluately right commenting on the the right version of WLS to use at the beginning of learning WLS.
    I have been VMWare Workstation for several months. I've created a CentOS 5.4 VM with WLS 11g installed. I played with with WLS 11g for a while and even followed through an Oracle online tutorial for that version. But I'm just used to learn something with a hard copy of book and I happen to have this old book on WLS 8.1 which seems to be highly rated before. I may continue to go through this book quickly if I can. However, if I experience too many hard problems down the road, I won't waste too much more time on this path. My long term goal is of course to learn more and better about WLS 11g and other Oracle related framework and tools. There is too much to learn. But the good thing is that Oracle provides everything free to learn. Also, I'm very encouraged by the quality of the Oracle tech group where I can turn for very useful help.
    Thanks again and best regards,

  • Problems with Download of Oracle IFS /IFS Devkit for NT

    I am having problems with download of Oracle IFS and Oracle IFS Devkit for NT.
    When I ran the ifsdevkit.bat file the last four files did not get copied over. Subsequently when I ran the upload_ifsdevkit batch file as indicated in document I got error message saying
    'System cannot find the path specified'.
    When I opened the batch file it is looking for BIN directory under the C:\OraHome1\ifs directory but none exists. I wonder if this is the cause of problem. This would mean that the ifs1081.zip file has a bug in that it did not create the BIN directory and files under C:\OraHome1\ifs
    Would appreciate if somebody can help. Thanks
    null

    Is C:\OraHome1 your ORACLE_HOME directory? (Usually, it's C:\Oracle\Ora81)
    Also, have you installed iFS (successfully) in that ORACLE_HOME? If so, you are guaranteed to have an %ORACLE_HOME%\ifs\bin directory.
    Finally, did you enter the correct directory as the parameter to the DEVKIT script?

  • How to install oracle xsql servlet on bea weblogic 5.1

              Hi there,
              I tried to install oracles xsql servlet (1.0.4.1) on bea weblogic 5.1 without
              any success.
              in weblogic.properties I started with:
              weblogic.httpd.webApp.xsql=c:\\weblogic\\myserver\\servletclasses\\xsql
              And in this dir I have WEB-INF with the following web.xml:
              <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
              <!DOCTYPE web-app
              PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.2//EN"
              "http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2.2.dtd">
              <web-app>
              <servlet>
              <servlet-name>oracle-xsql-servlet</servlet-name>

              <url-pattern> *.xsql </url-pattern>
              </servlet-mapping>
              </web-app>
              So the xsql extension is mapped to the named servlet which is found in a jar file
              contained in subdirectory lib.
              The problem is that the general mapping of *.xsql extension to specified class
              does not work at all. And there are no errors...
              Application server just presents me with the content of the xsql file instead
              of executing servlet whith the xsql file as input.
              Any ideas??
              Thanx in advance.
              JK
              

    What kind of problem do you have?
    If it's not connected with JDBC, you'd better post your question

  • Difference between oracle and BEA JDBC Drivers

    One of our application plan to move from BEA JDBC drives to Oracle drivers.
    We use Weblogic 9.2 as application server and Oracle 10g as the database.
    Questions
    =======
    1. What is the basic difference between these drivers and how do we decide which one to use.
    2. What can be the impact of moving to Oracle drives from BEA on the overall application...?
    3. Other than change in the jdbc.datasource.url = jdbc:oracle:thin:@, do we need to take anything else into consideration.
    Pls. let me know in case any further details are required.
    Thanks in advance.

    "1. What is the basic difference between these drivers and how do we decide which one to use."
    They are totally different products made independently by different companies.
    "2. What can be the impact of moving to Oracle drives from BEA on the overall application...?"
    As long as your application uses standard JDBC APIs, the impacts will be minimized, and
    unpredictable, some running faster, some slower... Any bug list for one driver will be
    different than for the other. If you use any driver-specific extension APIs, they won't
    be in the other driver.
    "3. Other than change in the jdbc.datasource.url = jdbc:oracle:thin:@, do we need to take anything else into consideration."
    Also changing the diver/datasource class name, and reviewing any arguments/driver properties.
    Property names and functions are usually driver-specific.

    What are the Steps to UTF-8 Encoding with Oracle 8i and Weblogic

  • Problem integrating Oracle 9i and Weblogic 7 with MDBs

    All:
    I would really appreciate an answer to this question.
    Background:
    - We are using Oracle 9i and Weblogic 7
    - I have an MDB that receives a message, then in the onMessage(Message) method
    performs a findByPrimaryKey(String).
    Problem:
    The deployment descriptors and the MDB all work fine when I set them up to query
    against a Pointbase database and deploy to Weblogic. Everything worked fine. But
    this was only a test to see if everything would work.
    I now need to query against an Oracle database. I got the updated version of the
    Oracle Thin Driver and put it in the WL_HOME/server/lib/classes12.zip file. I
    even added it to the beginning of the classpath in the startWeblogic.cmd file.
    But am still having problems.
    To test the just the Oracle connection I double checked the user, password, URL,
    and driver settings in a java file using JDBC connections - and they worked fine.
    They just aren't working when integrated into Weblogic.
    The problem lies in the Weblogic 7 server integration with Oracle 9i. The software
    integrated fine when tables from a Pointbase database were queried. The only changes
    made have been to make the connectivity to Oracle.
    My errors are in the attached myserver.log file. If anyone knows if this is a
    known problem or what the problem is please let me know.
    Just FYI my settings are as follows:
    Driver: oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
    URL=jdbc:oracle:thin:@192.168.6.10:1521:proType1
    user=protype1
    password=protype1
    Any advice is welcomed! I've tried everything I can think of.

  • Compatibility between oracle 9i and WebLogic AS 6.1

    Can the WebLogic Server 6.1 supports the Oracle 9i database in Solaris 8?

    Huh? BEA WebLogic Server 6.1 supports any Database that has a JDBC compliant
    driver...
    If you use the Oracle Thin Driver than comes with Oracle 9i, it should work
    fine. You will not be able to use the WebLogic jDriver but then you really
    don't want to use this driver anyway since the Oracle Thin Driver is much
    faster...
    Thanks,

    Greetings...!
    How are you doing?.
    Weblogic Server 6.1(SP1) doesn't supports the Oracle 9i database at all. You
    might expect in the next release of weblogic 6.1, that is weblogic 6.1 with
    SP2(Service Pack 2).
