Purging application logs automatically under Weblogic servers

Hi,
I am trying to explore purging options in Weblogic server.
Could someone help me in finding a setting(if there is one) under Weblogic properties files, which will purge Application logs automatically after 'n' number of days.
for example in D:\Hyperion\deployments\WebLogic9\servers\aas\logs directory, I see a lot of eas log files created with extensions from .log00001 to .log00427. Is there any way of removing these automatically without using any other windows scripts.
Thanks
Prasad

This is configured within each server's Logging tab ( Servers -> server_name -> Logging ). Set the rotation type to "Time", files to retain, and rotation interval ( default 24 hours ), etc. This will keep the files to a fixed count.

This works now after I did the change from WebLogic Administration comsole by going to each server's Logging tab ( Servers -> server_name -> Logging ). Set the rotation type to "Time", files to retain, and rotation interval ( default 24 hours ), etc. This will keep the files to a fixed count

Is there any way to automate purging Application Logging in azure storage account tables

is there any way to automate purging Application Logging in azure storage account tables
Rohit Pasrija

hi Rohit,
If you want to delete old data automatically, I think you need develop this feature by yourself. You could code the logic methods on your project, and set a timer to execute the methods to delete old data. Please refer to this thread (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13602629/is-it-possible-to-acces-a-table-storage-in-azure-from-an-azure-web-site
), you could operate table storage data using azure sdk or REST API.
Please try it.

Application Logging in Standalone weblogic - quick questions

Hi
In JDeveloper, we could write our application logging to logs for debugging and viewable from JDeveloper.
When we deploy to Standalone weblogic server, we cant find our logging.
Of the 3 loggers (Msg Catalog, nonCatalog, Commons log API),
Which logging mechanism is the best practice used logging for development environment ? Does it print to AdminServer.log ? If not, how can we accomplish that printing app log to AdminServer.log ?
Which logging mechanism is the best practice used logging for production environment ? Does it print to AdminServer.log ? If not, how can we accomplish that printing app log to AdminServer.log ?
Thanks

hi,
people commonly Log4J for their logging,Like Commons Logging, SLF4J, or the default Java Logging API. But if you're working with Oracle's Application Development Framework, there is another option as well: ADF Logging.
ADF Logging is a logging mechanism, embedded in the ADF framework. It wraps the Java Logging API, but throws in a few extra methods and some JDeveloper and (Weblogic) Enterprise Manager features.
the following one demo video from oracle site its very useful.

Best application hosting scenario for weblogic servers

Frankly speaking, it depends on the company interest, if you have a multi
environment, it is always better to standardize a single J2EE platform
server, Weblogic could be your choice, it can almost runs every type of
applications in this world. Check out some customers for BEA at BEA website
for different types of business from ViSA to AirFlight company.

Greetings...
What is the best/optimum application hosting scenario for weblogic serversat
an organization level? Assuming there are many applications to bedeployed, wd
the best solution be to create a managed server for each such applicationand
deploy the application on it?
What factors are critical to detemine the number of applications that canbe hosted
on a admin/managed server? Are any stats available?
Please also consider the monitoring view point for the servers.

Setting up OIM to start as a Windows Service running under Weblogic 10.3.2

Hi,
On recommendation from our Oracle Rep. we have begun migrating our existing OIM installation on Oracle AS to a Weblogic Application Server. As such we are looking for a way to get the OIM application to run as a service in windows - so we dont have to start it manually after a reboot and so that system monitoring can alert us if/when the application crashes for some reason.
I have asked Oracle support - which basically said that no such howto/documentation exists and that "One needs to debug on their own when face any issue." (whatever the h*** that means).
I was thinking that we werent the first customers trying to get the OIM webapplication to start automatically under weblogic and that someone must have figured out a way to accomplish this ?
Any advice on how to do this will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
/Jacob

Hi Jacob,
See this post that I answered few time ago. Re: Keeping Remote Manager running - Windows
Our OIM is running as a Windows Service.

Limit application LOg?

Is there any setting i can limit the size of application log size?i knew we can backup application log by copying & delete appliation log. Instead of this , any other setting we can do , it will delete application log automatically after reaching some size?

Mike, There is no functionality to limit the logfile size. but there are some other options.. 1.CLEARLOGFILE TRUE/FALSE - With this configuration file setting you can set the log file to clear whenever OLAP server is re-started. 2. Run MaxL script to periodically clear log file <alter system> command. hope this helps -Maneesh Hari

Application logging in weblogic 7.0

Just wanted to put a question out there as to how everyone else is doing application
logging. I want to provide a standardized error level logging capability to my
application developers, and I DO NOT want to use the weblogic logging as it appears
that it only can write to the server log - I worry about apps filling this filespace.
I tried ServletContext logging, and contrary to other implementations, it also
goes to the server log. According to the specs, it should go to a file that matches
up with the context name.
Is log4j the way to go?

Thanks for the feedback, anyone else that ones to chime in on log4j shoot.
Were looking now at how to leverage/intergate/avaliablate log4j within WLS.
Cheers

Hi Mark,
I am curious about how log4j didn't work in a cluster, and what about
weblogic's logging was superior to log4j?Well, I didn't exactly say that it didn't work in a cluster ;-) I
implied that it didn't work beautifully in a cluster :-)
These are the advantages that I see to WebLogic's logging:
a) Distributed logging is a no-brainer
b) Integration with WebLogic's own notifications
WL:If you want to log in a cluster, then using WebLogic's logging is
simple and effective - it all works out of the box. You get a nice
domain log and all the underlying distribution is done for you.
Log4J: If you want to log in a cluster using Log4J, then as far as I
know you have to do some work (not much, just some) - which you don't
have to do using WL. AFAIK, to get the same functionality you have to
use SocketAppenders, and then have your administration server (or
whichever server you want to hold the domain log) run a socketnode.
Advantages: You have lots of nifty log4j features, more portable.
Disadvantages: More setup, more administration, no integration with WL
notifications.
To me the greatest advantage is the integration with WebLogic's own
notifications. Logging is not just about debugging info, but also
manageability. I want to see all important information consolidated.
Of course, I can write code to get this - perhaps writinng a
notification listener for WL messages and converting them to Log4J
messages. Hmm, perhaps if WL let me write my own 'appender' instead of
their default 'send a JMX event' I could get nice clean integration.
The nice thing about Log4J is that it's feature set is far richer, and
its more 'portable' if you are willing to do the integration work with
each app server.

Jon

++++++
Now I want to pull the applications names and the version numbers associated with it and display to some kind of dashboard page like below.
| Application Name | Dev Environment | TEST Environment | PROD Environmnet |
google 1.4.5 1.4.5 1.4.5
web 4.514 4.514 4.514
Like this .....
can any one tell me the best way for achieving this task

View weblogic server logs and application logs

Hi All,
Is there any way to view log files of Weblogic Admin Server, managed server and application logs through OEM console. ( In text editor-- full file / tail -f output)..
Thanks | Kranthi

Thanks Rob.
Even from Weblogic Admin console we cannot view complete log file only some components are shown.
Just thinking will it be a good idea to execute shell script to view log file from Target-Execute Host Command.

Is application level logging possible in weblogic server 10.3.3

Hi,
I wanted to know whether application logging is possible or not. i.e. customer deploys an application, a log should be created that would contain the name of the application, size of it, timestamp etc.
Thanks
Edited by: user10196088 on Mar 24, 2011 6:17 AM

Hi Yesha,
Yes, you can do application level logging in weblogic server 10.3.3 using log4j . To get the steps how to do it do have a look at the below link.

Double submission problem in J2EE application under Weblogic 8.1 SP2 server

Hi,
We are facing double submission problem in our J2EE application which is running under Weblogic 8.1 SP2 and for the same we already implemented or added the below preventive solutions.
1. We disable the SUBMIT button once the user clicks it.
2. We preventated pressing 'F5' button and clicking 'Refresh' button in the browser.
3. Also we tried to prevent by declaring the idempotent is 'true' under weblogic-ejb-jar.xml as below.
<stateless-bean-methods-are-idempotent>true</stateless-bean-methods-are-idempotent>
So please somebody help us on this issue like how to prevent in some other way.
Regards,
Dinesh.

I have no idea why you would think changing your EJB configuration would have anything to do with preventing double submission at your servlet layer.
One technique I've seen for preventing double submission was first used in the Struts framework several years ago. When a page is "prepared" for display, a token value is created and stored in the session. The page is displayed with a hidden field containing that value. When the page is submitted, the value of the hidden field is compared with the value stored in the session. If they're not equal, the submission is ignored.

Debugger for Applet under WebLogic Application Server

Hello,
I was wondering if someone knows how can i configure a debugger for an applet running under WebLogic application server version 8.1.
This application server is running its debug mode in port 4000.
Thanks in advance.
Liav.

yeah, but appletviewer is not the solution, I am using jdeveloper 3 , OAS4081. I need to put the client on applet. The documentation says it will work. but the problem remains. I have lareday spent more then 40 hours to find a solution but it won't work.

Oracle Portal returns 500 error running under Weblogic 11g server

I've got Oracle Portal set up under Weblogic 11g.
SSO running, talking to OID 11g, also running under the same Weblogic 11g server. Tested SSO, it is working well.
After the install (no errors or issue on install), I go to http://<server>:8090/portal/pls/portal and geta Error 500 - Internal Server Error.
I traced down the problem to OHS - in ohs1.log:
