Runnig J2EE on Windows 98..(Urgent)

Hi Everybody,
Can anybody give me step - by - step instruction on how to install and run the j2ee platform on Windows 98.
Thanx in advance,
Shine Vijayan

Hi, Just install on your pc, and using edit from DOS rewrite the *.bat files, I mean... save again every file (I don't remember which version of j2ee have these files with unix style end of line) and follow the instructions of the install file.
Good Luck!!!

Can I install J2EE in windows 98?

Hello everyone,
Is it possible for me to download J2EE on windows 98 platform or will I be able to download only older version? Can someone help me out here. thnks.

No, at this time it is not possible to install J2EE 1.4 SDK on Windows 98. You should be able to install J2EE 1.3 SDK, though, but getting it to run does require some further tweaking of system environment. Please check this thread for more details:

Can i run J2EE on windows 98 platform?

Hi all,
this is a question i want to ask all of your help. Cos i couldnt run J2EE on windows 98 platform. Is it because J2EE does not support Windows 98? Is there a way to run them on windows 98? If yes, could anyone pls tell mi how to run it. Thanks

The J2EE Version 1.3.1 batch files need to be tweaked to run on Windows 98 and Windows Me. They're included with J2EETools plus a lot more. See

J2ee on windows 2000 home edition ? installation problems.

(i) I am trying to install j2ee on windows 2000 home edition. It simply does not install. On careful look at the download website I find that j2ee is meant for 2000 pro only. Is there a way I can install j2ee on home edition ? or it is simply not supported by Java Tech.
(ii) I am actually trying to run an application (.jar). Is there a way I can run that application is j2ee is not supported on home edition ?
(iii) There is no error message when I try to install j2ee. I have downloaded the self extracting file meant for windows (j2eesdk-1_4-dr-windows-eval.exe). I double-click the icon for this file. It launches a small popup and displays... extracting...installing....deleting temp files....Thats all.... Nothing more. When I do the same process on 2000 pro........ it does exactly the same, but at the end it pops up a new window asking my preference for installation directory, and displays a lengthy procedure for installation.
Any help.
Thanks in advance,
Vivek Ranjan

You are most likely hitting this problem:
http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/bugParade/bugs/4887990.html
One way to workaround this would be to rename your distribution to .zip file, extract it using Winzip or similar utility into some temporary directory. Then run this from command prompt (you must first go to the directory where you unzipped the distribution):
package\jre\bin\java -cp .;package\PackageFormat.jar -Duser.home=<writable_temp_dir> -Xmx256m appserv
This will start install wizard - once you get past the installation bootstrap problem, J2EE SDK should run on Windows XP Home Edition.

J2EE on Windows App server wont start after JSPM patching

Hi,
I've patched an ECC6 system on DB2 V5R4 to SP16 level on ABAP side, and Enhancement pack 3, and then did an update to JSPM and installed new SP16 levels of the Java components.
Now my Windows App server starts only the ABAP Work processes, not the J2EE side. I get a yellow light and the message
J2EE Status info unavailable.
On the Windows work directory for Dialog instance D00, I see that the dev_server0 has only messages about the last shutdown 2 days ago.
The dev_jcontrol has errors in it abot Unknown property and
JStartupICheckFrameworkPackage: can't find framework package U:\usr\sap\WFD\D00\exe\jvmx.jar
see below.
Any ideas?
regards
Michael.

I hadn't done any changes to UME, but I have got a JSPM support package (EP-PSERV SP16) in status of ERROR that seems to be at the bottom of the problem.
Apparently, JSPM is not able to cope with any flavour of IBM DB2 (Windows, AIX, or i) at a point in this support package. There is a note 1156313 and it matches the error which is in the sdm log file:

Oracle 8i Installation with Windows XP - Urgent

Hi!!
I wanted to know if anyone can help me. I have Oracle 8i and I want to install it on Windows XP professionl version, The installation goes fine and the database is installed and runs fine until
Once I restart the computer, The database service fails to start, I have tried a number of things like starting it mannualy and starting oracle from command prompt. This is urgent can any one help me please, This is urgent.
I would appriciate if you could email me the solution. my email address is [email protected], [email protected]
Thanks in advance
regards
Kanhai Chhugani

This should be a workaround for your problem. Let me know if it works or not.
1. Create a temporary directory on your server.
2. Copy the contents of the Oracle RDBMS Server CD to the temporary directory created in step 1.
3. Search the directory structure created in step 1 for the existence of the filename symcjit.dll.
4. Rename each copy of the symcjit.dll to symcjit.old.
5. Run the setup.exe from the \install\win32 directory and install Oracle 8.1.x.

Authentication using database in j2ee ri server? URGENT!!

Hello I have installed j2sdkee1.3.1 and I use the web and ejb server that it includes. I start it with j2ee.bat and I create a application with jsp and ejb, and I use deploytool to deploy it. I don't have problem, but now I would like to use a form-based autentication. I config it in deploytool but I want that the j2ee server access to a database to check if a user have the role that he need to access. I do this with the option of deploytool in which you can add users and roles, but I don't know how to config it for a database.
In tomcat4.1 you can do this adding the next lines to server.xml:
<Realm className="org.apache.catalina.realm.MemoryRealm" />
<Realm className="org.apache.catalina.realm.JDBCRealm" debug="99"
driverName="com.jnetdirect.jsql.JSQLDriver"
connectionURL="jdbc:JSQLConnect://localhost/database=name"
connectionName="user" connectionPassword="pass"
userTable="user" userNameCol="usuario" userCredCol="clave"
userRoleTable="userRol" roleNameCol="rol" />
I want to use only the j2ee server. I config it in j2sdkee1.3.1\conf\server.xml adding the next lines, as I do with Tomcat but here in j2ee it isn't.
I don't know why j2ee server doesn't use this file, or how I have to config it to use a database to autenticate.
It's very urgent.
Thanks for all and sorry for my english I'm spanish.

Hi Moi,
j2ee1.3.1 is not supported any more. Please try j2ee1.4beta2.

Unable to compile J2EE in Windows XP

I have installed successiful J2EE 1.4 in my computer but i couldin't able to compile.
J2EE is in D:/programfiles/sun/appserver/
tutorial is in C:/unzipped/
I don't know how to add JAVA-HOME/bin ,J2EE_HOME/bin and J2EE_HOME/share/bin ON FRONT OF MY PATH.
How coul i set my PATH?
For examole my program that i what to compile is in C:/dubo.java what can i do to compile it.

I will just hope that Windows XP does not have different navigation for environment setup, this is how
PATH can be set on Windows 2000:
Start->Settings->Control Panel
Double click System, select Advanced tab
Select Environment Variables button
Find variable called PATH in user variable section. If it exists, then select its row and click edit. Write necessary entries at the very beginning - in your case, this should look something like:
D:\programfiles\sun\appserver\jdk\bin;d:\programfiles\sun\appserver\bin;<whatever was already there>
If there is no variable called PATH, then click New button, in Variable Name field specify PATH, in variable value specify:
D:\programfiles\sun\appserver\jdk\bin;d:\programfiles\sun\appserver\bin
Click OK to exit the environment setup. If you are compiling from command line, you'll have to open fresh command prompt to get these changes.

Newbie question J2EE and Windows ME

hi i am a young student trying to learn about j2ee.
i have installed the j2ee package and set the environment variable JAVA_HOME, J2EE_HOME and ANT_HOME and PATH and CLASSPATH as the documentation says.
If I type on the command line j2ee -verbose to make a test, i got this message:
invalid command or file name

no more environment space
no more environment space
no more environment space
syntax error
syntax error

(sorry for bad translation...i am not using an english operative system)
i am using windows Millennium Edition and i have tried to give the j2ee.bat the more environment memory as possible..but it doesn't work.
Is it possible using and working with the j2ee package under Millenium Edition or i must strongly install e.g. Windows 2000 Professional? What about Windows 98?
I need help. please.
Thank you in advance.

how about j2ee.bat?

J2EE on Windows 98

Hi
I have manged to install J2EE Windows 98 with the help of the topics posted on this forum and grateful thanks to all for that.
However when I try and build the examples using ant, the process seems to hang and none of the subdirectories or code gets created
Can anybody suggest why this might be?
Thanks

The ant build scripts do not handle long filenames correctly and will not work if your ant installation is in a directory with a long filename. Try installing ant to C:\Ant and remember to change the ANT_HOME environment variable accordingly before trying to build.

J2EE For Windows ME

Does anyone know where I can get a version of J2EE that runs under Windows ME? I would like to experiment with it and see what it's like. However, the Sun site doesn't have a version I can use.
Thanks
MistWing SilverTail

Hallo,
I think that the answer to your question is that such a version does not exist! According to the Sun web site, J2EE is only available with Windows for NT, 2000, and XP. You could, of course always try it with ME, and wait for the bangs. Alternatively, why not upgrade from ME?

9ias on Windows XP(Urgent )

Dear All,
I am facing a very strange problem.
Our application is running on Oracle 9ias installed on Windows2000.
When I access this from a WindowsXP M/C with browser(IE 6.0) privacy settings as medium(which is by default medium)and without IP address of 9ias m/c.(Which is infact not required),I do not get the menu of my application generated.
I some how did some hit and trial and now when I put
the IP in proxy settings of my client Browser, I am able to get the menus.
Can anyone give some hint or somebody has faced the

Recovering windows XP -Urgent help needed

I am new to Toshiba. I hav a 60 GB hard disk with no partition and windows XP home installed. I want to partition the hard disk now. Now after formatting the hard disk do i lose Windows XP HE completely or is there chance to recover it and reinstall it. Urgent help needed.

Hi
You can reinstall your notebook using Recovery CD. It is easiest and fastest way to reinstall OS, all necessary drivers and tools. Put Recovery CD into DVD-ROM, start notebook and press down C button. At the beginning there is choice between two kinds of installation (Standard mode and expert mode).
If you choose the first one whole HDD will be formatted and used for OS installation. With second one (expert mode) it is possible to install OS on first partition. It is also possible to define how big the partition should be.
Try it. It is very simple to do it.
Good luck

Ipod not recognised by Windows - need urgent help!

Just bought my Ipod Mini. Found out that Ipod is not recognised by Windows because Ipod is configured for Mac...
Restoring to factory settings not possible because Windows does not see the Ipod. What can I do?

First, make sure that the iPod is fully charged.
iPods come pre-formatted for Mac, so you will need to format it for Windows.
See this article to verify its format: How to determine iPod's hard disk format.
Make sure that you have the latest iPod Updater software
- Download the Update Installer to your PC (do not run it from the web site).
- Place the file on the Desktop, or in a Folder you can remember/find.
- You also need to install the Updater software by double-clicking on the file that downloads.
- After you install the Updater to your PC, reboot your computer.
- After rebooting, run the Updater.
--- Go to: Start ==> Programs ==> iPod.
- It should initialize then ask you to connect an iPod.
- Connect the iPod when asked (not before) and you should have two options available: Update or Restore.
--- Choose the Restore option and it will update your iPod's firmware to the latest version and format (erase) your iPod's hard drive.
