Running weblogic with Vcafe 3

Question

Hello,
Using visual cafe 3 (enterprise), I've got a class which run Weblogic in
order to debug EJB, so I had to insert weblogic classes in VC classpath
(sc.ini) to debug EJB (which uses weblogic classes like weblogic.rmi,...)
and run WL.
It works fine with weblogic 3.1 (no java and wl distinct classpaths) but
not with newer versions (4.5.2, 5.1) because WL refuse to run coz of
weblogicaux.jar in java classpath !!!!
So how can I do ?
Thx,
Matt

Answer 1

You should upgrade to VCafe Enterprise 3.1a. I believe there's no charge. Check out the WebGain
website.
WebLogic 4.5.x and 5.1.x use dynamic class loading to enable runtime replacement of servlets, jsps,
and ejbs.
The server should be started with the standard class libraries and directories given by -classpath
and the weblogic\classes and weblogicaux.jar on the -Dweblogic.class.path.
The Server can be started with everthing on the classpath in what's called static mode. In this
case, the important thing is to make sure that weblogic\classes\boot appears BEFORE
weblogic\classes.
For 5.1.x, also make sure that the parameter -Dweblogic.system.disableWeblogicClassPath=true is
added.
But the automated EJB features in VCafe 3.1a won't work with 5.1.x. For that you'll need to update
to VCafe 4.0 Enterprise (and I believe there is an upgrade cost there.)
