Problem in SNMP monitoring of Sun One Webserver  on AIX

Hi,
I am trying to configure SNMP subagent configuration on Sun One Webserver 6.1 (sp2) running on Aix 5.3 system.
I am able to start the Agent & the Native agent. But I am not able to poll the values.
Can any one guide me how to debug the issue.
(The same works properly with snmp master agent provided as part of Webserver).
Also confirm which mib file should be used.
The document in Webserver still shows netscape oid to be added in smux of aix.

  • Sun One Webserver and JSP 2.0

    I have a customer running Sun One Webserver v 6.1 (newest) and I have no experience using that server. We are writing some JSP pages, and I am hoping to use JSP 2.0. It appears from what I have read that only JSP 1.2 is supported. Is that correct, or is there any way to use JSP 2 with the Sun One server.
    Any help greatly appreciated, I'm a total newbie to this server.
    Cheers

    Well, I don't have any problem running jsp pages on this server, just wanted to know if the server supports jsp 2.0 or if there is a way to add that support.
    What problems are you having getting your jsp files to run. I just moved some over from a tomcat install and they work fine. Had to modify the classpath in server.xml, etc, to pick up some jars for jdbc, but basically no problem with jsp.
    I'm kind of surprised that if this is the newest version of the Sun Web Server that it does not support jsp 2.0 out of the box. It's not exactly a new spec.

  • Enabling Network Security with Sun One webserver

    Hi experts
    I have a sun server with solaris and sun one webserver loaded
    now when i am connecting the web server from any of the client browser it is not asking for any paassword
    how can i enable the network password for webserver
    Damu

    I can't believe it, the problem was because I have formated the object definition element in obj.conf with a tab before Service. It seems Service needs to start from column 1, was sun webserver made is cobol?

  • META-INF & SUN ONE WebServer security

    Hi All,
    I am facing problem with SUN ONE WebServer 6.0. The SUN ONE WebServer is being used a Web-Proxy Server to parse all request for a particular URL to WebSphere application server.
    Unfortunately one of JAR files loaded in the WebSphere contaisn files in META-INF directory which needs to be accessed by the users. These files are mostly javascripts and image files.
    These files can be accessed if we connect directly to the WebSphere http port. But cannot be accessed when connecting through the SUN ONE WebServer.
    I get the following error,
    [13/Jun/2006:16:19:14] security (14832): for host 10.81.205.204 trying to GET /esott/faces/static/META-INF/common/script.js, deny-existence reports: denying existence of /opt/iplanet/iWS/docs/esott/faces/static/META-INF/common/script.js
    I am not sure why Iplanet is denying the existence of the files in the META-INF . Is there a way to turn off this behaviour?
    regards,
    Suresh

    Servlet spec. prohibits direct access to META-INF:
    9.5 Web Application Archive File
    Web applications can be packaged and signed, using the standard Java Archive tools, into a Web ARchive format (war) file. For example, an application for issue tracking could be distributed in an archive with the filename issuetrack.war.
    When packaged into such a form, a META-INF directory will be present which contains information useful to the Java Archive tools. If this directory is present, the servlet container must not allow it be served as content to a web client�s request.

  • Sun One Webserver

    We are currently working on Sun One Webserver 6.0 with Chilisoft 3.6.2
    Now with the new version 6.1 is there ...the question is can we simply upgrade to the new version or do we need to reinstall and reconfigure all the websites with the new version 6.1
    Also now that new version of webserver 6.1 has the ASP feature bundled with it ...do we still require Chilisoft?
    Please answer my queries ...by replying at the following email id : [email protected]
    thanks!

    You'll have to use S1ASP 4.0.1 (not 4.0) to work with S1WS 6.1.
    Downloads are available here at:
    ftp://ftp.chilisoft.com
    There's no licensing requirement with S1WS 6.1 for S1ASP.
    Make sure the previous version of S1ASP is uninstalled prior to installing the new version of S1ASP to S1WS 6.1

  • Sun ONE webserver crashes.....

    Hi
    I have installed Sun ONE webserver along with portal, directory and identity server. Suddenly the webserver crashes and gives me the following messages in the "Error" log.
    catastrophe (15171): CORE3260: Server crash detected (signal SIGSEGV)
    info (15171): CORE3262: Crash occurred in function res_freehostent from module /usr/lib/libresolv.so.2
    failure (15170): CORE3107: Child process closed admin channel
    Please let me know what shd be the reason for this.
    regards
    Mark

    Hi Mark,
    Do you have DNS turned on(check magnus.conf file for DNS settings)? If yes, test with DNS disabled. I suspect the crash is due to issues with DNS. Check to see if you have the latest libresolv OS patch?
    Thanks

  • Sun One Webserver Connection Pooling - javax.naming.NamingException

    I'm trying to configure a container managed datasource in Sun One Webserver. I've followed the steps given in the Sun One Webserver Administrator's Guide, however when I try to lookup the datasource I get a "javax.naming.NamingException: Cannot create resource instance" exception (full stack trace below). I have verified the database connection info (URL/user/password) is correct using Squirrel and I've appended the location of classes12.jar to the server's classpath in server.xml.

  • Sun one webserver 7.0 secured website asking userid password

    We have upgraded sun one webserver to 7.0 from 6.0, and installed the latest Verisign SSL certificate. Now the webserver asks authentication of userid/pwd instead of bringing the we page that should give login capability.

    Can anyone help me out.

    You don't have to call[i] FacesContext.responseComplete().
    There are several reasons for that error occurring.
    !) Low VM size memory
    2) The server went out of memory.
    3) etc...

  • Can I run the Servlet and Bean code on Sun ONE Webserver 6.1 SP5

    Hi all.
    My environment as below.
    1) Windows 2000 Server SP4
    2) Sun ONE Webserver 6.1 SP5
    3) JRE1.5.0
    The directory ( WEB-INF/classes) where is to create on. I have a Bean and Servlet code but I can't
    to run it on. Another code Jsp, HTML can run.
    How can I do?

    Your question is somewhat vague, but I'll presume that you are asking how you can invoke your servlets.
    If the servlet classes are correctly deployed, you can invoke them directly. i.e. http://host/<app>/servlet/<classname>. Or, you can create servlet mappings.
    Java beans cannot be invoked the same way a servlet can. You can access beans from within servlets.
    For more details, check out the servlet tutorials at http://java.sun.com

  • What is the latest Sun One webserver with SP #, which we can use it  in pro

    What is the latest Sun One webserver with SP #, which we can use it in production environment.
    thanks

    6.1 Service pack 5 is our latest release.
    you can get this software from
    http://www.sun.com/webserver
    hope this helps

  • Problem with maxprocs 1 on Sun One Web server 6.1

    I am using sun one web server on Unix with maxprocs set to 3.
    This means that there are 3 jvms running my application under 1 instance. However I have certain components like an application cache that I would like to share between these 3 processes.
    Additionally is there a way to configure the server so that requests from 1 session are served by 1 process only.
    I am really stuck here. Have searched in all the documentation, but in vain. Would really help if some one of the Sun Developers could answer this.
    Thanks

    Elving,
    It is great to hear that there is no predefined limit on number of sessions but if that's the case why the webserver always starts with 1000 allowed by default. Are there any potential performance reasons behind it?
    I have your link open in my browser for a few days now as a reference because I am experimenting with different Session Managers. I am trying to find a solution for BheegaChicken to be able to accomodate several thousand simultaneous sessions for his application.
    We use V6.0SP2 and SP6 and for BheegaChicken's app specifically V6.1SP2...
    I have spent some time in the past looking for the answers how to handle higher then 1000 sessions capacity on one instance and that was even before V6.1 was out. I have found the following reco that talks about optimal performance for sites using threads:
    http://docs.sun.com/source/816-5690-10/perf6.htm#17580
    *** start qoute
    Multi-Process Mode
    You can configure the server to handle requests using multiple processes with multiple threads in each process. This flexibility provides optimal performance for sites using threads, and also provides backward compatibility to sites running legacy applications that are not ready to run in a threaded environment. Because applications on Windows NT generally already take advantage of multi-thread considerations, this feature applies to Unix/Linux platforms.
    The advantage of multiple processes is that legacy applications that are not thread-aware or thread safe can be run more effectively in iPlanet Web Server. However, because all the Netscape/iPlanet extensions are built to support a single-process threaded environment, they may not run in the multi-process mode, and the Search plug-ins will fail on startup if the server is in multi-process mode.
    In the multi-process mode, the server spawns multiple server processes at startup. Each process contains one or more threads (depending on the configuration) which receive incoming requests. Since each process is completely independent, each one has its own copies of global variables, caches, and other resources. Using multiple processes requires more resources from your system. Also, if you try to install an application which requires shared state, it has to synchronize that state across multiple processes. NSAPI provides no helper functions for implementing cross-process synchronization.
    If you are not running any NSAPI in your server, you should use the default settings: one process and many threads. If you are running an application which is not scalable in a threaded environment, you should use a few processes and many threads, for example, 4 or 8 processes and 128 or 512 threads per process.
    MaxProcs (Unix/Linux)
    Use this directive to set your Unix/Linux server in multi-process mode, which may allow for higher scalability on multi-processor machines. If you set the value to less than 1, it will be ignored and the default value of 1 will be used.
    Tuning
    You can set the value for MaxProcs by:
    Editing the MaxProcs parameter in magnus.conf
    Setting or changing the MaxProcs value in the Magnus Editor of the Server Manager
    Note      You will receive duplicate startup messages when running your server in MaxProcs mode.

    If it is not relevant anymore please explane.
    I am still interested to understand which of the SessionManagers is recommended by Sun to have optimal performance for sites with high number of sessions and using threads. It is not really obvious from http://docs.sun.com/source/817-6251/pwasessn.html. On top of this that's documented just for V6.1. What about V6.0?
    Thank you very much for your cooperation!
