Fantastic! Thank you WS team.
What is the schedule for the bug fixes and enhancements to be integrated into Open Web Server?
Also - It is Dec 18. the online shopping rush is on and many web sites are in lock-down (regarding software changes) until after the Christmas rush. Is there any way for these sites to apply JUST the NSS changes and Xerxes changes so that the vulnerabilities in SSL renegotiation and XML parsing are addressed, but everything else (as much as possible) remains unchanged? Applying an über-patch during the final week of Christmas shopping is not going to be an option for many administrators.
Thanks!

Deploy .war or .ear file to sun java web server 7.0 update 4

Hi
This could be a very daft question, but still I would like to get a clarification.
My clients are a financial organisation, and for security and various other reasons they accept only .ear files. But this time the development and deployment would be done on Sun Java Web Server 7.0 update 4 . Now since its a web server I don't think I can deploy an .ear file.
But sure I would like to get an answer from the experts here, is it possible to deploy and .ear file to Sun Java Web Server 7.0 before I can go back to my clients.
Please help me here as I'm in a real big confusion here. Your help would be highly valuable to me.
Thanks
Jagdish

Hi
Thanks for the reply and I appreciate your help. Well I tried deploying an .ear file directly and web server 7 complains that it doesn't have a .war extension, understandably so.
And then ripping apart the .ear file and deploying the .war file does work, as is expected of a web server.
Well, about my customer is a bank and they have a very tight security policy, and why they need an .ear file is beyond my understanding. Well as far as this issue is concerned, I need a strong point so that I can get back to them that we need to comply to the third party software.
But I didn't wan't to get back to them saying we can only provide a .war file and then later find out an .ear file could have done the job. And being seen as the technical experts we can't afford to make any mistake.
Thanks
Jagdish

I did not understand very well what you told me.
The directory server is on another machine ex(m1).
I have other web server on another machine ex(m2). This web server working properly (solaris 10). And when I access to application, ldap error does not appear.
This web server (windows, SP11), is installed on my PC.
The ldap configuration on this instance is the same as another web instance (dbswitch.conf):
directory default ldap://m1:port/<base dn>
default:binddn <bind dn>
default:encoded bindpw <passwd>
From my PC I can communicate well with the server ldap, I used a ldap administration program, and users and groups tab of my web server (windows).
I open a browser on my PC, and if I access the other web server works fine.
if I access to my web server, the ldap error appear...
There are commands to diagnose problems with ldap, something about the character encoding windows-unix?
Thanks in advance

what i need how to find out what exact version i am using in my webserver 7.0 is it update 6 or update 7 or update 8
how to find out what exact version i am using in web server 7.0.....
thanks and regards
tiger

Web Server tells you specifically which Update release in the string you quote (in your string you are running the original release of Web Server 7.0).
My server is currently running Web Server 7.0 Update 7. The startup string looks like:
[19/Jan/2010:11:18:27] info (15407): CORE1116: Sun Java System Web Server 7.0U7 B12/14/2009 22:58

Installation issue: Sun one web server 6.1 SP5 with JDK1.6 on Windows XP

Hi,
I am trying to install sun one webserver 6.1 SP5 on my system which has windows XP operating system for the development work. the JDK version i am using is JDK1.6.
While installing sun one webserver at step where i can use custom java development kit i am providing path for the JDK1.6 in "JDK Path" text box as "C:\Java\jdk1.6.0_11".
while clicking next it throws me error "The version of selected JDK is too old". i don;t have any other version of JDK installed on my system.
Can any one tell me what can be the problem here?
Regards,
Nemish

Can you try Web Server 7.0 update 6?
BTW JDK version you are using has security vulnerabilities. Please upgrade to the latest JDK
as per [http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-66-263489-1]
This issue is addressed in the following Java SE and Java SE for Business releases for Windows, Solaris, and Linux:
* JDK and JRE 6 Update 15 or later
* JDK and JRE 5.0 Update 20 or later

Install certifcate on sun java web server 7.0

we just moved away from IIS and servlet exec because of issues we are having with the speed. sun java web server was like 4 times faster. we had the web app up and running, but for some reason we couldnt figure out how to install a certificate. i went through the request wizard and got the code and sent it to digicert and got my code for the certificate. i then installed it by pasting it, after i finish i get this error (unknown option 'by'). can someone point me in the right direction.
my only guess so far was i am using *.domain.com in the domain field, when you request the certificate.

I can't see anything wrong with the steps you followed to install the certificate. Are you using Web Server 7.0 or Web Server 7.0 update 1? As far as I remember, in Web Server 7.0, wildcard characters like * were not allowed in the "Server Name(cn)" field of request certificate wizard. This got fixed in 7.0 update1 release.
Can you post you server logs so that we can figure out what is wrong? You can as well try certutil command as been suggested by mv and let us know if you could manage to install the certificate.

How do I use Sun Web Server 7.0u1 reverse proxy to change public URLs?

Some of our installations use the Sun Web Server 7.0 (update 1, usually)
for hosting some of the public resource and reverse-proxying other parts
of the URI namespace from other backend servers (content, application
and other types of servers).
So far every type of backend server served a unique part of the namespace
and there was no collision of names, and the backend resources were
published in a one-to-one manner. That is, a backend resource like, say,
http://appserver:8080/content/page.html would be published in the internet
as http://www.publicsite.com/content/page.html
I was recently asked to research whether we can rename some parts of
the public URI namespace, to publish some or all resources as, say,
http://www.publicsite.com/data/page.html while using the same backend
resources.
Another quest, possibly related in solution, was to make a tidy url for the
first page the user opens of the site. That is, in the current solution when
a visitor types the url "www.publicsite.com" in his or her browser, our web
server returns an HTTP-302 redirect to the actual first page URL, so the
browser sends a second request (and changes the URL in its location bar).
One customer said that it is not "tidy". They don't want the URL to change
right upon first rendering the page. They want the root page to be rendered
instantly i the first HTTP request.
So far I found that I can't solve these problems. I believe these problems
share a solution because it relies on ability to control the actual URI strings
requested by Sun Web Server from backend servers.
Some details follow, now:
It seems that the reverse proxy (Service fn="service-passthrough") takes
only the $uri value which was originally requested by the browser. I didn't
yet manage to override this value while processing a request, not even if
I "restart" a request. Turning the error log up to "finest" I see that even
when making the "service-passthrough" operation, the Sun Web Server
still remembers that the request was for "/test" (in my test case below);
it does indeed ask the backend server for an URI "/test" and that fails.
[04/Mar/2009:21:45:34] finest (25095) www.publicsite.com: for host xx.xx.xx.83
trying to GET /content/MainPage.html while trying to GET /test, func_exec reports:

servers="http://10.16.2.127:8080" Directive="Service" DaemonPool="2b1348"
returned 0 (REQ_PROCEED)My obj.conf file currently has simple clauses like this:
# this causes /content/* to be taken from another (backend) server
NameTrans fn="assign-name" from="/content" name="content-test" nostat="/content"
# this causes requests to site root to be HTTP-redirected to a certain page URI
<If $uri =~ '^/$'>
    NameTrans fn="redirect"
        url="http://www.publicsite.com/content/MainPage.html"
</If>
<Object name="content-test">
### This maps http://public/content/* to http://10.16.2.127:8080/content/*
### Somehow the desired solution should instead map http://public/data/* to http://10.16.2.127:8080/content/*

I have also tried "restart"ing the request like this:
    NameTrans fn="restart" uri="/data"or desperately trying to set the new request uri like this:
    Service fn="set-variable" uri="/magnoliaPublic/Main.html"Thanks for any ideas (including a statement whether this can be done at all
in some version of Sun Web Server 7.0 or its opensourced siblings) ;)
//Jim

Some of our installations use the Sun Web Server 7.0 (update 1, usually)please plan on installing the latest service pack - 7.0 Update 4. these updates addresses potentially critical bug fixes.
I was recently asked to research whether we can rename some parts of
the public URI namespace, to publish some or all resources as, say,
http://www.publicsite.com/data/page.html while using the same backend
resources.> now, if all the resources are under say /data, then how will you know which pages need to be sent to which back end resources. i guess, you probably meant to check for /data/page.html should go to <back-end>/content/page.html
yes, you could do something like
- edit your corresponding obj.conf (<hostname>-obj.conf or obj.conf depending on your configuration)
<Object name=¨default¨>
<If $uri = ¨/page/¨>
#move this nametrans SAF (for map directive - which is for reverse proxy within <if> clause)
NameTrans.. fn=map
</If
</Object>
and you could do https-<hostname>/bin/reconfig (dynamic reconfiguration) to check out if this is what you wanted. also, you might want to move config/server.xml <log-level> to finest and do your configuration . this way, you would get enough information on what is going on within your server logs.
finally,when you are satisfied, you might have to run the following command to make your manual change into admin config repository.
<install-root>/bin/wadm pull-config user=admin config=<hostname> <hostname>
<install-root>/bin/wadm deploy-config --user=admin <hostname>
you might want to check out this for more info on how you could use <if> else condition to handle your requirement.
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-6599/gdaer?a=view
finally, you might want to refer to this doc - which explains on ws7 request processing overview. this should provide you with some pointers as to what these different directives mean
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-6599/gbysz?a=view
>
One customer said that it is not "tidy". They don't want the URL to change
right upon first rendering the page. They want the root page to be rendered
instantly i the first HTTP request.
please check out the rewrite / restart SAF. this should help you.
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-6599/gdada?a=view
pl. understand that - like with more web servers - ordering of directives is very important within obj.conf. so, you might want to make sure that you verify the obj.conf directive ordering is what you want it to do..
It seems that the reverse proxy (Service fn="service-passthrough") takes
only the $uri value which was originally requested by the browser. I didn't
yet manage to override this value while processing a request, not even if
I "restart" a request. Turning the error log up to "finest" I see that even
when making the "service-passthrough" operation, the Sun Web Server
still remembers that the request was for "/test" (in my test case below);
it does indeed ask the backend server for an URI "/test" and that fails.
now, you are in the totally wrong direction. web server 7 includes a highly integrated reverse proxy solution compared to 6.1. unlike 6.1, you don´t have to download a separate plugin . however, you will need to manually migrate your 6.1 based reverse proxy settings into 7.0. please check out this blog link on how to set up a reverse proxy
http://blogs.sun.com/amit/entry/setting_up_a_reverse_proxy
feel free to post to us if you need any futher help
you are probably better off - starting fresh
- install ws7u4
- use gui or CLI to create a reverse proxy and map one on one - say content
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-6601/create-reverse-proxy-1?a=view
if you don´t plan on using ws7 integrated web container (ability to process jsp/servlet), then you could disable java support as well. this should reduce your server memory footprint
<install-root>/bin/wadm disable-java user=admin config=<hostname>
<install-root>/bin/wadm create-reverse-proxy user=admin uri-prefix=/content server=<http://your back end server/ config=<hostname> --vs=<hostname>
<install-root>/bin/wadm deploy-config --user=admin <hostname>
now, you can check out the regular express processing and <if> syntax from our docs and try it out within <https-<hostname>/config/<hostname>-obj.conf> file and restart the server. pl. note that once you disable java, ws7 admin server creates <vs>-obj.conf and you need to edit this file and not default obj.conf for your changes to be read by server.
>
I have also tried "restart"ing the request like this:
NameTrans fn="restart" uri="/data"
ordering is very important here... you need to do this some thing like
<Object name=default>
<If not $restarted>
NameTrans fn=restart uri from=/¨ uri=/foo.
</If>

How to disable OPTIONS in sun java web server 7.1

I found TRACE in one of meena web log seems good. But I did not find service the OPTIONS in obj.conf. Is there any way to disable this service as it is showing vulnerabilities in one of our scanning report?

In Web Server 7.0 Update 5 disabling TRACE and OPTIONS was trivial with:
<If $method="TRACE" or
    $method="OPTIONS">
   AuthTrans fn="set-variable"
        error="501"
</If>Place that near the top of your default object in the obj.conf. It should come before any NameTrans statements just to interrupt the request as early as possible.

Reverse Proxy with Sun Web Server 7 update 4

Hi All,
I've just migrating to Sun Java System Web Server 7.0U4 B12/02/2008 from Sun Java System Web Server 7.0-Technology-Preview-3 B09/13/2006. I've have the two web servers running side by side on separate machines. Both have a VS configured as a reverse proxy pointing to the same apache tomcat web server.
The Tech Preview 3 server works fine and has been doing since it was installed. However the Update 4 server doesn't. I can access the tomcat app via the U4 server in a browser, but not with the app on my mobile (sync ML). Snooping the traffic show me that the U4 server is sending a different response that the Tech Preview server. I'm thinking it may have to do with Transfer Encoding: chunked. I've looked around the web to see if I can turn this off in the U4 server, as I seem to recall having to do so at some point in my life, though I can't remember when and with what.
Does anybody have any clues they can throw at me?? Or anybody know what has change in the reverse proxy part of the web server from Tech Preview 3 to U4??
Both VS reverse proxies are congfigured exactly the same.
Thanks,
Stuart.

well, technology preview is what the name says .. i am surprised that u decided to stick with a technology preview release all these days.. in any case, there should not have any feature change between technology preview build and U4. but , there has been lot of bug fixes - so, unless we know the exact problem - we can't easily narrow down the change between tp3 build with U4 and find out how it is affecting u.
here is a related article on how to use chunked encoding within web server 7
http://developers.sun.com/webtier/reference/techart/chunked_req.html
now, to help you more appropriately, you need to provide us with errors (probably with log level set to finest within server.xml) and let us know with the error reported by web server when it is unable to send those requests to back end tomcat
you can set log level to finest by running the following command
/sun/webserver7/bin/wadm set-config-prop -user=admin --config=<hostname> log-level=finest
/sun/webserver7/bin/wadm deploy-config --user=admin <hostname>
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-4842/set-config-prop-1?a=view
(once you have identified the problem, you might want to set log level to info as setting to finest will cause your logs to grow humongous and also hurt performance

The solution is to apply vold patch [138130-01|http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-21-138130-01-1].
Solaris 10 10/08 DVD Media Might Not be Automatically Mounted by vold (6712352)
The Solaris 10 10/08 DVD does not mount by default during runtime. No error message is displayed.
Workaround: Perform the following steps:
   1. Become superuser.
   2. Disable vold:
      * On Solaris 10 Systems:
            # svcadm disable -t volfs
      * On Solaris 8 and Solaris 9 systems:
            /etc/init.d/volmgt stop
   3. Mount the media manually by using the # mount -F hsfs path to block device path to mount point command. For example:
      # mount -F hsfs /dev/rdsk/c0t2d0s2 /mnt

I don't see any way of configuring a web server in 10.9; this was always present in previous releases. How to I set up a website on OSX 10.9.1?

I upgraded from Snow Leopard, where performance was great on my Mac Mini, to Mountain Lion, where performance is so bad that I'm now attempting a clean-install of Mavericks. But, I don't see any way to set up my local website. I don't see a Sites directory or any control in System Preferences to set up the web site. How is this done in Mavericks?

Yes, the functionality has departed System Preferences. Here is an updated guide to jump start your solution. It deals with the Terminal solution below.
There are two approaches to launching a web server in Mavericks.
Terminalsudo apachectl {start|stop|restart}
System Preferences solutions
Web Sharing Preference Pane (free, originally for Mt. Lion)
VirtualHostX ($)
