OS x Serveradmin Web service - NIL_RESPONSE_ERR (*** -[NSCFArray objectAtIn

System was running. Web is the only service. Through the server admin UI I enabled logging and changed the site port from 8081 to 80, Save, and now I get his error when starting the service
mlmladmin$ sudo serveradmin stop web
web:state = "STOPPED"
web:status = 0
ap404:apache2 mlmladmin$ sudo serveradmin start web
web:state = "RUNNING"
web:status = 0
ap404:apache2 mlmladmin$ sudo serveradmin fullstatus web
2008-08-13 14:08:37.461 serveradmin[1428:a0b] Exception in doCommand: * -[NSCFArray objectAtIndex:]: index (0) beyond bounds (0)
web:error = "NILRESPONSEERR (* -[NSCFArray objectAtIndex:]: index (0) beyond bounds (0))"
ap404:apache2 mlmladmin$
All my sites are no longer displayed and I can not make any changes. Using apachectl -t the config file passes:
ap404:apache2 mlmladmin$ apachectl -t
Syntax OK
ap404:apache2 mlmladmin$
Thanks

I have the same problem. No response on the fix action for this.

It was something to do with DNS settings.
I had to revert to an older DNS settings of 'data.xxxxxxxx.com' as after reboot for a new DNS of 'server.aaaaaaaa.inhouse' www kept asking for 'data.xxxxxxxx.com' in the error log file.
Seems that OS X Server's DNS settings do not like being changed through the Server Admin application. Though isn't that why we have a Server Admin app and nice OS X front ends?!

Web Services crashing, whole server dies

About once a day now my the Web Services on my Xserve crash and all the sites go down. When this happens I am unable to restart the web services or even restart the machine from inside the OS. I have to physically hold down the power button to restart the server. Once it comes back up everything is running well until the next time it crashes. This is running the newest 10.6.4 with all the updates. I have 2 other servers that are identical that are not having this problem and there are no DNS problems from the outside.
Here are some things from the log that concerns me:

Hi
Is the Server an OD Master or Replica? How do you tell? Launch Terminal and issue:
sudo serveradmin status dirserv
Supply the server administrator's password when prompted. You won't see it being typed.

Web Sites GONE in 10.6.2 Update, Web Services

Installed the new 10.6.2 server update, now all of my web services site are gone. They still exists on the drive and in the folders, but web services will no longer configure or save due to errors stating null fields, even though fields are completed appropriately for setup. What happened?

Here is the error I am getting:
Uncaught exception raised in Web client-side plugin.
Sorry but the feature you tried to access cannot be used. Exception is:
In updateDescriptionFromConfigurationView: NSInvalidArgumentException * -[NSCFArray initWithObjects:count:]: attempt to insert nil object at objects[1] .

OSX Server Error (NIL_RESPONSE_ERR (** -[NSCFArray objectAtIndex:]: index

I would appreciate some help and guidance troubleshooting an OSX Server Admin problem. The error occurs when trying to access the "Web" service through Server Admin.
I'm okay using the GUI, but would need explicit instructions to work on the Command Line. The server has been well backed up, if restoring a file(s) is easier.
The following welcoming, happy message in Server Admin, running on Mac OSX Server 10.5.7 was received:
The Server has encountered an error. .... Report the problem to the administrator if it persists. (NILRESPONSEERR (** -[NSCFArray objectAtIndex:]: index:]: index (0) beyond bounds (0)))
I grabbed the following error message from the System Log:

Thanks in advance!

Managed to resolve the problem by restoring the folder from backup, and then restarting the machine.

Error while invoking a WS-Security secured web service from Oracle BPEL..

Hi ,
We are facing some error while invoking a WS-Security secured web service from our BPEL Process on the windows platform(SOA 10.1.3.3.0).
For the BPEL process we are following the same steps as given in an AMIS blog : - [http://technology.amis.nl/blog/1607/how-to-call-a-ws-security-secured-web-service-from-oracle-bpel]
but sttill,after deploying it and passing values in it,we are getting the following error on the console :-
“Header [http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2004/08/addressing:Action] for ultimate recipient is required but not present in the message”
Any pointers in this regard will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Saurabh

Hi James,
Thanks for the quick reply.
We've tried to call that web service from an HTML designed in Visual Studios with the same username and password and its working fine.
But on the BPEL console, we are getting the error as mentioned.
Also if you can tell me how to set the user name and password in the header of the parter link.I could not find how to do it.
Thanks,
Saurabh

Hi,
I have no problem with item :P15_EV_LCL this is having a value my probem here is i am using java script to display the value in different color based on the condtion case
eg:
select
case
TRUNC((
( (NVL(Z."AEWP",0) - NVL(Z."BEWP_Final",0) ) / DECODE(Z."BEWP_Final",0,NULL,Z."BEWP_Final") ) * 100
),2)
= :P15_EV_LCL
then
span style="background-color:lightgreen"
|| TRUNC((
( (NVL(Z."AEWP",0) - NVL(Z."BEWP_Final",0) ) / DECODE(Z."BEWP_Final",0,NULL,Z."BEWP_Final") ) * 100

end "Effort"
from actuals Z
If i dont use this <Span style="Background-color:color"> i am able to generate data in excel sheet if i use this color coding i am not able to get data in spread sheet.
Please suggest

Unable to capture return values in web services api

At the time of login to web services if my server is down ,
it returns following error :
java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: -1
        at java.lang.String.substring(String.java:1438)
        at java.lang.String.substring(String.java:1411)
I want to capture this error so that i can try another server to login. how do i capture this error
Another place where i want to capture the return Value is when i look for a report on the server
rh = boBIPlatform.get("path://InfoObjects/Root Folder/"src_folder"/" + reportName +
                           "@SI_SCHEDULEINFO,SI_PROCESSINFO" ,oGetOptions);
oInfoObjects = rh.getInfoObjects();
CrystalReport = (CrystalReport)oInfoObjects.getInfoObject(0);
Here if the report is not there on the server , it returns a null handler exception.
but if i try catching it by checking my responsehandler is null like rh == null it does not catch it.
Any help will be appreciated
thanks
Rakesh Gupta

Ted : i have two cases
1)   server = server_st.nextToken();
    providerURL = "http://"server"/dswsbobje/services";
    sessConnURL = new URL(providerURL + "/session");
   Connection boConnection = new Connection(sessConnURL);
   Session boSession = new Session(boConnection);
EnterpriseCredential boEnterpriseCredential = new    EnterpriseCredential();
              boEnterpriseCredential.setLogin(userid);
boEnterpriseCredential.setPassword(pwd);
boEnterpriseCredential.setAuthType(auth);
SessionInfo boSI = boSession.login(boEnterpriseCredential);
I have got a list of servers running web servcies stored in my tokens. when i pass the first server name say " test:8080" and that server is down , i want to catch somewhere in the code above that it did not get the connection so that i can loop back and try with the second server say test1:8080
This is for failover purposes.
at present when i was trying to capture return value of boSI it breaks giving the error
java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: -1
at java.lang.String.substring(String.java:1438)
at java.lang.String.substring(String.java:1411)
2nd case :
I am geeting reports from the server and scheduling them:
i run the following code which works fine if reports is there
rh = boBIPlatform.get("path://InfoObjects/Root Folder/"src_folder"/" + reportName +
"@SI_SCHEDULEINFO,SI_PROCESSINFO" ,oGetOptions);
oInfoObjects = rh.getInfoObjects();
CrystalReport = (CrystalReport)oInfoObjects.getInfoObject(0);
Here if the report is not there on the server then i should be able to catch from the response handle rh that it has got a null value.
but rh does not return a null value
the code ultimately throws a null handle at the following line
CrystalReport = (CrystalReport)oInfoObjects.getInfoObject(0);
i am not able to catch the null value there also.
hope you got my issue.

How to allow access to web service running under ApplicationPoolIdentity

Hi All,
I have a WCF web service hosted in IIS 7 (or maybe 7.5, whichever comes with Windows server 2008 R2) using DefaultAppPool running under ApplicationPoolIdentity per Microsoft's recommendation. The web service needs to call a stored procedure to insert data
to a db. The web server is on a different VM than the database server. The db server is running SQL 2008 R2. Both VMs run Windows server 2008 R2.
When the web service tries to connect to db, it encounters this exception:
Exception in InsertToDb()System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException (0x80131904): Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON'.
at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlInternalConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection)
Here's the connection string in web.config:
Application Name=somewebservice;Server=somewebserver;Integrated Security=SSPI;Database=somedatabase;Connection Timeout=60"
How should I configure SQL security to make this work?
Thanks in advanced.

Thanks for the link Dan. Maybe I'm the one who cause the confusion :)
If I understand you(and Erland) correctly, you suggest using a custom, domain account for application pool identity. However, if we do that, our IT will need to maintain those accounts, and they don't want that. So I'm choosing a built-in account called
ApplicationPoolIdentity as the application pool identity, but it's not working. Network Service, on the other hand, works, but my boss wants us to follow MS's best practice.
What's puzzling is that according to this: http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/624/application-pool-identities/, both Network Service and ApplicationPoolIdentity uses machine account to access network resource (like db in this case), but in my case, Network Service
works, but not ApplicationPoolIdentity.
Hallo Stephen,
with respect - it seems to me that only idiots are working at your IT ;)... It is absolutely useful to work with "service accounts" created within the domain. That's the only way to manage and control accounts!
If you want to "pass through" the identity of the web user (SSO) you have to check whether the app pool is set to "allow impersonate". As far as I understand the ApplicationPoolIdentity-function the app pool will create a unique user named as the service.
I assume that will not work with the connection to the sql server because this user is unknown.
Local Service will not work because it's restriction is located to the local machine.
Network Service will work because access to network resources will be available.
So my recommendation is to use a dedicated service account or impersonation:

Web Service deployed with admin_client is not working

Hi,
I'm usung SOA Suite 10.1.3.1 and Eclipse WTP 3.2.2.
The thing is that I developed a Web Service with Eclipse using the plugin for generating web services. Then I exported my project to a .war file from eclipse as well.
For deploy my web service in oc4j, I tried from the oc4j console in Applications --> Deploy and Next-Next wizard and using the .war file generated by Eclipse. I got the application deployed and I can check that the wsdl is working in http://localhost:8888/Hello_Web2/services/Hello?wsdl
But the main problem is when I try to deploy using the admin_client command tool running the command: java -jar admin_client.jar deployer:oc4j:opmn://localhost/home oc4jadmin welcome1 -deploy -file d:\TEMP\Hello_Web.war -deploymentName Web5 -contextRoot "/". Everything seems right, I can see the application created in the console, but when I try to access to the web service using "http://localhost:8888/Hello_Web2/services/Hello?wsdl" I get and Http 404.
What is wrong with the command method?
Many thanks in Advance,
Alberto

Hi,
As the custom web part works well in other browsers, the issue may be related to the IE itself.
Have you tried the methods below?
Use compatibility mode to check whether it works.
Open IE->Tools->Compatibility View Settings
Add the site into Trusted sites to check whether it works.
Open the IE->Internet Options->Security->Trusted Sites->add the site into the zone
What’s more, you can also switch the Document mode to IE 10 or lower to check whether it works.
Thanks & Regards,

Questions on using a SOAP web service's data in a Crystal Reports report

I'm attempting to create a report using CR 2008, accessing data from a SOAP web service. I've run into a few problems, and need some advice.
1) CR doesn't seem to support WSDL files that use relative URI imports (for example, I have a relatively complicated WSDL file that imports other WSDL files and schemas using relative URI locations). To solve this problem, I have downloaded all of the files to my local hard drive, and changed the "location" attributes to point to local files. Is there any other solution to this problem?
2) CR doesn't seem to support circular references within schema files. To solve this problem, I have removed circular references from my local schema files. Of course, my actual web service will still potentially return data structures with these circular dependencies. Is there any other solution to this problem?
3) CR doesn't seem to support request documents that allow for arrays of elements. For example, my schema allows the user to specify an array of Instruments that should be returned by the web service. In the meantime, I have changed the schema to only specify single instances of the Instrument element in the request. Is there any other solution to this problem?
4) CR doesn't seem to support empty values for optional attributes that are specified in the schema. So, when the "Enter Values" parameter form appears, I am required to enter values for these attributes, even though they are listed as optional in the schema. To avoid this problem, I have commented out the optional attribute values in the schema. Is there any other solution to this problem?
5) When the schema specifies that a value is based on a restricted simple (string) type, the CR parameter form shows a drop list with ellipses (...), but the drop list does not contain the enumerated types specified in my schema. Instead, I must manually enter a value. Do you know of any reason why the drop list is not populated?
6) The SOAP response document from my web service is relatively complicated. So, in the "Data" page of the Standard Report Creation Wizard, each and every XML element level of the response document listed in the schema is shown as a separate entry. If I choose just the top level element ("fetchInstrumentSetResponse"), then very little data is shown on the next page of the wizard (only the ID attribute). But, if I select each and every element type from the response document, CR prompts me for the request document parameters for each row I have selected (I see the same form 30+ times), even though there really should only be a single SOAP request to the web service to return this response document. It seems to be treating each of these elements as a separate "database table", with a different query string for each. Am I using this feature incorrectly?
If you can point me to somewhere in the documentation that handles this in more detail, that would be great (all I could find were the step-by-step instructions on how to connect to a web service as a data source).
Thanks!

Error while scheduling through web service

We have created Web service through WSDL of OBI Publisher. Also we created a web service proxy client to call the services offered by OBI Publisher. We actually want to "Automate the Scheduling of Reports" according to our requirement:
1. We used to schedule the reports manually by giving the parameters(used to populate data in reports) and other fields like select report name, report destination, format of reports ( .pdf, .docx,etc) through Oracle BI Publisher.
2. As there are thousands of permutations of report input parameters possible, so it is difficult to schedule them manually.
3.We also want to schedule report to a particular folder according to some parameter, for the ease of the user visibility.
Above requirements are not currently available with Oracle BI Publisher.
We are getting error while scheduling through ScheduleRequest class.
The client.java is as follows:
public class ScheduleServiceClient
@WebServiceRef
private static ScheduleService_Service scheduleService_Service;
public static void main(String [] args)
    scheduleService_Service = new ScheduleService_Service();
    ScheduleService scheduleService = scheduleService_Service.getScheduleService();
    // Add your code to call the desired methods.
    try {
                FTPDeliveryOption ftpdo =new FTPDeliveryOption();
                ftpdo.setFtpServerName("ServerName");
                ftpdo.setFtpUserName("Username");

                DeliveryChannels dc = new DeliveryChannels();
                dc.setFtpOptions(ar);
                ScheduleRequest scheduleRequest = new ScheduleRequest();

Error while deploying a web service whose return type is java.util.Date

Hi
I have written a simple web service which takes in a date input (java.util.Date) and returns the same date back to the client.
public interface Ping extends Remote
* A simple method that pings the server to test the webservice.
* It sends a datetime to the server which returns the datetime.
* @param pingDateRequest A datetime sent to the server
* @returns The original datetime
public Date ping(Date pingDateRequest) throws RemoteException;
The generation of the Web service related files goes smoothly in JDeveloper 10g. The problem arises when I try to deploy this web service on the Oracle 10g (10.0.3) OC4J standalone. it gives me the following error on the OC4J console :
E:\Oracle\oc4j1003\j2ee\home\application-deployments\Sachin-TradingEngineWS-WS\
WebServices\com\sachin\tradeengine\ws\Ping_Tie.java:57: ping(java.util.Date) in com.sachin.tradeengine.ws.Ping cannot be applied to (java.util.Calendar) _result = ((com.sachin.tradeengine.ws.Ping) getTarget()).ping

I read somewhere that the conversion between java to xml datatype and vice versa fails for java.util.Date, so it is better to use java.util.Calendar. When I change the code to return a java.util.Calendar then the JDeveloper prompts me the following failure:
Method Ping: the following parameter types do not have an XML Schema mapping and/or serializer specified : java.util.Calendar.
This forces me to return a String data.
I would appreciate if someone can help me out.

Hi
I got the web service working with some work around. But I am not sure it this approach would be right and good.
I started altogether afresh. I did the following step :
1. Created an Interface (Ping.java) for use in web Service as follows :
public interface Ping extends Remote{
public java.util.Date ping(java.util.Date pingDateRequest)
throws RemoteException;
2. Implemented the above interface in PingImpl.java as follows :
public class PingImpl implements Ping
public java.util.Date ping(java.util.Date pingDateRequest) throws RemoteException {
System.out.println("PingImpl: ping() return datetime = " + pingDateRequest.toString());
return pingDateRequest;
3. Compiled the above 2 java files.
4. Generated a Stateless Java Web Service with the help of JDeveloper. This time the generation was sucessful.(If I had "java.util.Calendar" in place of "java.util.Date" in the java code of the above mentioned files the web service generation would prompt me for error)
5. After the generation of Web Service, I made modification to the Ping interface and its implementing class. In both the files I replaced "java.util.Date" with "java.util.Calendar". The modified java will look as follows :
Ping.Java
=========
public interface Ping extends Remote{
public java.util.Calendar ping(java.util.Calendar pingDateRequest)
throws RemoteException;
PingImpl.Java
================
public class PingImpl implements Ping
public java.util.Calendar ping(java.util.Calendar pingDateRequest) throws RemoteException {
System.out.println("PingImpl: ping() return datetime = " + pingDateRequest.toString());
return pingDateRequest;
6. Now I recompile both the java files.
7. Withour regenerating the Web Service I deploy the Web Service on OC4j 10.0.3 from JDeveloper. This time the deployment was sucessful.(The Deployment fails if I don't follow the step 5.)
8. Now I generated a Stub from JDeveloper and accessed the stub from a client. It works fine. Here if you see the Stub code it takes java.util.Date as a parameter and returns a java.util.Date. (Mind you I am accepting a java.util.Calendar and returning the same in my Web Service interface. Step 5)
The confusing thing is the Serialization and Deserialization of Data from Client java data to Soap message and Soap message to Server java data.
From Client to SOAP :
java.util.Date to datetime
From SOAP to Server :
datetime to java.util.Calendar
From Server to SOAP :
java.util.Calendar to datetime
From SOAP to Client :
datetime to java.util.Date (I am not able to understand this part of the conversion)
Any help or inputs would be appreciated.
Thanks
