PS 7.1 (JES 5u1-Linux) - Can't deploy psconsole

Hi,
I've installed Portal 7.1 for Redhat Linux (JES 5 u1) using the Application Server as the web container. I know from reading the forums that the installer doesn't install the PSconsole and that it needs to be deployed manually after installation. The problem is that I can't deploy it.
Note: After trying this, I then applied the patch 124303-11 (ps71u2), and tried again but it produced the same errors.
Here's how I try to deploy the psconsole.war:
/opt/sun/portal/bin/psadmin deploy-portlet -u amadmin -f /opt/sun/passfile -p portal1 -g /opt/sun/portal/admin/psconsole.war
Invalid Portlet war file. Possible reason can be error reading WEB-INF/portlet.xml from portlet war file,
please check the cli debug logs or MBean debug logs for more details.

Does anybody have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Kevin

I believe you are simply using the incorrect port number. Port 4849 is the port reserved for use by the App Server Domain Administration Server console. A default installation of Sun App Server creates another instance using ports 8080/8181 for HTTP/S respectively. You should be able to reach psconsole with:
http://host.domain:8080/psconsole
https://host.domain:8181/psconsoleLog in using the amadmin account credentials that were configured for Access Manager.
You can also run psadmin list-portals to see where the portal was deployed.

Problem installing Sun JES 5u1 on OpenSolaris (snv_b77 x86)

We have a new X4600 server dedicated to tests of the latest Sun-related software stack we could get our hands on to build a demo-installation of "the newest" for a customer, so we installed it with OpenSolaris (snv_b77 was the most recent back then).
After doing the needed tests, we decided to see how the Sun JES behaves with a recent Solaris. We have many Sun JES projects (dating back from Portal 6.0 and JES 2003Q4, JES 4 and 5/5u1); and since Solaris 10u2 (6/06) we host them in zones of a "minimalistically" configured server (approx 270 packages).
When I tried to repeat a similar approach with OpenSolaris (snv_b77) and Sun JES 5u1, the Orion(?) installer behaved differently than on Solaris 10u3 or 10u4. In particular, there are less choice options in Directory Server (i.e. no Directory Proxy Server at all), and a dozen lines in High Availability services (HA for this and HA for that, albeit "Unsupported in zones").
The bigger problem is that the installer doesn't succeed in installing some packages (Cacao, mfwk, jdmk) and configuring the products. I could manually register some of the CACAO components and get a working pair of Directory Server and DPS, now I'm fighting with the Application Server.
What's sad, I don't have to do these tricks with any recent Solaris 10 server we've had set up.
The root of the problem seems to be that the system identifies as "SunOS 5.11" and the installer doesn't seem to support that (installation goes on with a stacktrace that classes for 5_11 could not be found). Example:
PSPERR:++++++++++++++++++++++++++ {Missing Resource Exception in the loading of the PkgRelativePaths{Can't find bundle for base name com.sun.entsys.installer.common.resources.PkgRelativePaths5_11, locale en}}
I made a wrapper script for /sbin/uname which replaces "5.11" with "5.10" and linked "Solaris_11" to "Solaris_10" directories in the unpacked distribution, but these steps did not help.
Does anybody know of tricks required to fool the installer to work in "Solaris_10" mode regardless of the system? Changing programs to wrappers, or replacing /etc/release and similar files are okay - the setup is in a zone dedicated to one task.
Or is there a newer Sun JES beta release which does not need such fooling? :)

I had the same problem this evening on b81, and have had the problem in the past but didn't care long enough to look at it. I do care tonight because I need to use B81 with Crossbow, so as I have VNIC support.
I've spent some time figuring it out (thanks to truss + find) and I've found a way that sorts the issue. You need not rename directories (in fact, this will break it in my experience).
NOTE: Seeing as you've mucked around with directories and so on, unzip a fresh copy of JES.
NOTE: Sun probably don't want you to do this and it is unsupported, do so at your own peril.
Run the installer (I've used text mode):
Unable to access a usable display on the remote system. Continue in command-line mode?(Y/N)
Y
Once you say "Y", I've found it goes off creates a directory called /tmp/.entsys_CaChE
Inside this directory you will find the following seemingly relevant files:
./Solaris_x86/.install/config/PPXMLS/Clusters/EntsysCluster_SUNOS_SPARC_5_10.xml
./Solaris_x86/.install/config/PPXMLS/Clusters/EntsysCluster_SUNOS_X86_5_10.xml
./Solaris_x86/.install/config/PPXMLS/Clusters/OrionCluster_SUNOS_SPARC_5_10.xml
./Solaris_x86/.install/config/PPXMLS/Clusters/OrionCluster_SUNOS_X86_5_10.xml
./Solaris_x86/.install/config/com/sun/entsys/installer/common/resources/PkgRelativePaths5_10.properties
In another terminal window, copy the relevant files for your platform to the same file but with 5_11 instead of 5_10
cd /tmp/.entsys_CaChE
cp ./Solaris_x86/.install/config/PPXMLS/Clusters/EntsysCluster_SUNOS_X86_5_10.xml ./Solaris_x86/.install/config/PPXMLS/Clusters/EntsysCluster_SUNOS_X86_5_11.xml
cp ./Solaris_x86/.install/config/PPXMLS/Clusters/OrionCluster_SUNOS_X86_5_10.xml ./Solaris_x86/.install/config/PPXMLS/Clusters/OrionCluster_SUNOS_X86_5_11.xml
cp ./Solaris_x86/.install/config/com/sun/entsys/installer/common/resources/PkgRelativePaths5_10.properties ./Solaris_x86/.install/config/com/sun/entsys/installer/common/resources/PkgRelativePaths5_11.properties
Then continue the installer as normal.
Then you should get to here:
1. Install
2. Start Over
3. Exit Installation
What would you like to do [1] {"<" goes back, "!" exits}?
And if you continue now things are happy:
Java Enterprise System 5

Which version of Unbreakable Linux can I use with XE 10g 32-bit

I have to do an installation of XE 10g 32-bit, and I'm looking in to using Unbreakable Linux.
The simple question is which version of Linux can I use 5.?? or 6.?? ??
thanks,

The system requirements page is somewhat dated, but maybe 5 will work.

Can't deploy - application server has ping problems 4848

hi,
i can't deploy a web cause after every try i get the following error-msg:
"started server deployer: sun: app server:: localhost: 4848: but ping failed"
but this is no wonder cause my app-server was configured from the creator-installer to run on 14848 and not on 4848!
when i start the app-srv manually (calling the "startsrv"-script) then the app-srv starts without any problems on port 14848 and i can login in the app-srv-adminweb with "http:/localhost:14848/asadmin". but the creator will always connect to port 4848!
so how can i configure the creator that he should use the port 14848? or how to configure the app-srv to run on port 4848?
thx for help

ok, i' ve completely removed and newly installed creator (inkl. deleting all directories, aso.) and ...
.... IT WORKS AND DOESN'T WORK !!!!
better said it works only if u run creator as ROOT. it's not possible to start the app-server as a normal USER!!!! if u do this u will get always the 4848-error-msg!
so i've thought it's maybe only a question of the configuration/profiles. so i've copied the /.Creator from the root-home to my user-home-directory (incl. changing the rights) but it does work. so it's a question of the rights.
what a joke!
"solution" (under linux/kde):
create on the desktop of your "normal" user-account a new program-icon with a link to "/opt/Creator/bin/runide.sh" and setup in this prog-icon the "run as" to "root". then u'll get by every start of this application the dialog for the root-password but it works.
BUT
especially SUN as an isv of unix/solaris-systems should know that it's terrible/unbelievable and what ever else to run normal apps as root! so pls, correct this so fast as poss!

How can I deploy my AAMEE without Apple Remote Desktop?

Hi everyone,
I created a build for Adobe CS6 Production Premium for Mac with the serial number embedded, along with the current updates. All is well with that; however, this is the issue that I am having:
I have tried to test the build on a local machine (the computer I created the build on) and was able to install the package with no issues; however, when I try to deploy build onto a networked machine, it doesn't work.
I have read through the AAMEE Reference Guide and have read (if I am not mistaken) that for CS6, you can only deploy an AAMEE build through Apple Remote Desktop onto multiple machines. I have also read that you would need Apple Remote Desktop on all of the machines you want the build to deploy on.
If that is case, if I have read the guide correctly, what is the point of deploying the build through a network if you have to still install ARD onto all the machines you want the software one? How can you get around this to be able to deploy your AAMEE successfully onto a network on machines?
When I tried it last night on one network Mac with ARD, I received the error message for "Validating packages...". I'm not sure what that means because the build works perfectly on local machine.
Any ideas would help as far as deploying the build on a network without using ARD, or really, just a simpler alternative that works?
PLEASE HELP.
Thanks.

Hi,
You can deploy package using any of these tools - ARD, SSH, Casper suite, Absolute manage, Land desk..and may be more but we have only tried these.
We have mentioned ARD as an example, but other standard tools can be very well used for deploying package. and there is no need to have ARD installed on all machines where you want to deploy the package, but only on admin machine.
can you please let me know - which client OS are you trying to deploy the package and whether the client machine is logged or logged in? please forward install.log if you are facing the error.
thanks,

How Can I deploy a .WDA file into MSS

Hi Everybody,
We have a problem with leave issue and SAP has provided a new EAR file i.e. sap.commssato.ear.
They said that we need to take a back up of existing mss~ato before we deploy this new .EAR file. But when we checked in the portal server, we can see only a .WDA file, but not an .EAR file. Now, i don't know how to deploy a .wda file using SDM. If some thing goes wrong with the new file(.ear file supplied by SAP), we have to re deploy the old file. I learnt that we can only deploy EAR, SCA and SDA file files to the server using SDM. Please explain me what should i do now.
Thank so much in Advance.
Kind Regards,

in help of eclipse they given as, whole webapplication deployement, but that is also giving me a error, the procedure they given is, once we created a .war file for our servlet project we need to refer this to a .Ear file, and then this Ear can be deployed in to the server. Is it the same and only procedure to deploy a servlet with eclipse, or if there is any other method,please give me the steps also.
when i am deploying with the .Ear file, it is giving the error as,

Can I deploy ADF outside IAS & Oracle RDBMS ?

Hi all,
We are exploring JDev 10g to be our standard J2EE IDE.
But I am wondering whether ADF can be deployed outside IAS (e.g : Tomcat, JBoss) ? for production ?
Also what If ADF on SQL Server 2000 as backends ?
We need to make sure about this because we are not dedicated to Oracle RDBMS and IAS. We just look for an best J2EE IDE to speed up development.
Thank you for any help,
Krist

Yes both are possible.
In the JDeveloper tools menu the ADF Runtime installer has options to be installed on JBoss and Tomcat and Weblogic with a single click.
We also know of people using other application servers.
ADF is also database independent - for example in the how-to section of JDeveloper on OTN you'll find instructions for using ADF BC with MySQL.
Toplink (another ADF persistence option) can also work with multiple databases.

Can not deploy a report using JDBC connection on CR2008 Server

Hi Group,
I have a report created with JDBC connection. When I tried to add it to CR2008 server, it gives an error - "An unexpected error has occurred ". Basically I want to add a report to a public folder via CMC. I am using adminstrator account.
Then I thought I need to add JDBC driver into CR2008 server. so I put oracle jdbc jar into CR2008 server classpath and add JDBC connection info into CRConfig.xml. but I still got the same error.
I also tried:
- Change the report to use native Oracle driver rather than JDBC. The deployment succeeded (but this is not what I want)
- Add a data source connection via Business View Manager, but no luck.
I know how to use/change jdbc connection with programtic way, but I just want to know if I want to use built-in components in CR2008 server without any coding the reports can be deployed and managed.
Thanks in advance.
Dennis

Hello Will,
Crystal Reports supports connections to JDBC/JNDI out of the box, and have done so for a while, whether stand-alone or published to Enterprise.
To specify where the server would search for the JDBC driver jar files, you'd change the classpath tag found in the CRConfig.xml file found on the machine where the Crystal Reports Page or Job Server is running.
For early Crystal Enterprise 10 and before, it used Java Native Interface (JNI) to start the Java process to retrieve the data from the JDBC connection.
For later Crystal Enterprise 10 and later, it starts off a "Java Server" process, and communicates to the Crystal Reports process via CORBA TCP/IP connection.
Commonissues that may arise: (1) CRConfig.xml not configured properly, (2) unable to start or communicate to the "Java Server" because of permissions or firewall.
Note that this is a separate connectivity map from using ADO or ADO.NET.
Sincerely,
Ted Ueda

Can a Deployment Plan Modify Values in a .properties file?

I'm using JDeveloper 11.1.1.6.0 and Weblogic 10.3
I am currently in the process of creating a plan.xml file for our application, but we have a few properties files that contain configuration information. This information needs to change depending on the environment that we are deploying to. Is it possible to do this through a plan.xml or would we have to use some other method?
Example:
File: conf.properties
------start file-----
A=1
B=2
C=3
-----end file-----
We would need to be able to change the value of B to be 5 instead of 2 if we are deploying to our test environment.

As far as I can tell, what you linked is just using the deployment plan's XPath to update a value in the web.xml which is standard procedure. However, I am curious of being able to update values in a .properties file which is not an XML file, and thus can't be read by XPath. Is this possible or can the deployment plans only modify XML documents?
[EDIT] From what I've been finding it seems I've confirmed that it can only override XML files, or atleast I've found no indications that it can do anything other than XML files. Though now I'm having issues of it overriding custom XML files. EG: I have a wf_client_config.xml file in the WAR's class path that I need to update depending on the environment, but have not been able to have the deployments recognize the override that I have listed in the plan.xml.
So I guess now my question is, do I ened to do anything special to get it to recognize an XML file on the class path vs a standard xml file such as web.xml? Or should I make this a new topic?

[EDIT 2] Marking this as resolved, it appears as though the plan.xml will only modify settings that could be modified by Weblogic naturally and it is not able to modify items that are on the classpath of the application.

How can i deploy adf-richclient-demo.war to tomcat?

how can i deploy adf-richclient-demo.war to tomcat or
how can i use adf faces 11G in tomcat or
how long will the next version out?
thank you!

Hi,
the demo is a WAR file. So if you have a tomcat version that supports JSF 1.2 then you should be able to deploy it like any other JEE WAR file

Can I deploy the IDS applications to Weblogic?

Can I deploy the IDS(Form 10g) applications to Weblogic?
thanks!

I'm not sure that's entirely correct.
Personally I run both EJBs and servlets/JSP in OC4J. OC4J has all the 'web' features of IAS, including full SSL support.
From a speed perspective, running the EJBs and web components in the same container will give you a huge benefit.
Also I'm not sure what you mean by "you can't deploy EJBs into OC4J yet" - I do it daily? ;)

How can i deploy macbooks and 802.1x authentication using PEAP/MSChap version 2

How can i deploy macbooks and 802.1x authentication for wireless connectivity using PEAP/MSChap version 2. The Cert is generated by a 2008 Windows CA authority. I am trying to get to join but the MAC doesnt seem to want to accecpt the cert. Can i not validate the cert and still have it join the 802.1x wireless netqwotk? The wireless netwotk is using a Cisco 5508 wireless controller and Cisco 1142 access points. All works fine with Windows devices.

Hi Tarik,
Thanks for your answers,
I've attached my configured AuthZ rules and AuthZ profile for provisioning,
I want the process to be the same for iPhone, Android and Windows.
1) Connect to the SSID
2) Login using your AD credentials PEAP-MS-CHAP-v2
3) Redirect to device registration portal (So I can set a limit of 3 devices per employee)
4) As soon as the client click "register" no more redirects and PERMIT-ALL
I think that I don't need to rely on profiling because In terms of AuthZ policies it should be something like this:
1) if WIRELESS802.1x and PEAP-MS-CHAPV2 and BYODREGISTRATION=!YES(Unknown or not reg) then "Redirect to device registration(that is NSP right?)"
2) if WIRELESS802.1x and PEAP-MS-CHAPV2 then PERMIT-ALL(no redirection)
3) everything else = DENY-ALL
But the NSP looks for Client Provisioning policies, so if I don't configure any policy it should Allow Network Access(See attachment photo3.png) but as I said on the post it shows that cannot retrieve the MAC-Address so the client can't register his device and don't have access to the network. (To grant access I've configured provisioning policies, that way the clients can register their devices but they are redirected to google play or are forced to install the profile at iOS and this is what I don't want because it is not necessary)
What screenshoot do you need after the registration? the Auth report?
Thank you very much for your time!

NWDS can't deploy and cant' search

Hi Everyone,
I need you help:: my NWDS has 2 major problems now:
1) Can't Deploy: when goto J2EE DC Explorer - right click on my custom project I don't get dropdown menu anymore, so I can't seleect Development component / Deploy
2) Can't Search: I got error "No Search Extensions plugged into workbench or all search pages disabled" when select Search.
I reinstalled NWDS but the same problems still occur. Seems Package Explorer is still working (I can Edit files and DC/build...).
Any advises / suggestions? Please HELP.
Thanks alot, Jin

Hi Jin,
Although you need not to save anything but to be more safe side, take a backup copy of your complete workspace.
Make this above change and let us know if it works.
