Sun App Server 9.1 on Windows - Many TCP connections

Hi,
I have a problem with Sun Application Server 9.1 running on Windows (both XP and 2003). When I start a server I see in netstat many (about 50) TCP connections established within server process like this:
java.exe:3616 TCP localhost:1687 localhost:1688 ESTABLISHED
java.exe:3616 TCP localhost:1688 localhost:1687 ESTABLISHED
All these connections are in pairs (port and port + 1) like the example above.
What does it mean and why the server creates these connections? How can I decrease number of them?
(The server is without any application, it is pure installation.)
Thank you for your reply!
Jiri Vitinger

Yes, it works.
I suppose you are able to install, but can not start Access Manager?
There is a description at
http://wiki.java.net/bin/view/OpenPortal/PortalInstallInstructions#Install_Access_Manager_and_Direc
I had to follow the instructions for glassfish, although I'm using AppServer 9.1.
Replaced the values of the according lines in AMConfig.properties like this:
com.iplanet.security.SecureRandomFactoryImpl=com.iplanet.am.util.SecureRandomFactoryImpl com.iplanet.security.SSLSocketFactoryImpl=netscape.ldap.factory.JSSESocketFactory com.iplanet.security.encryptor=com.iplanet.services.util.JCEEncryption

Sun App Server 8 as a Windows Service

Is it possible to install Sun App Server 8 as a Windows Service so I could run it under Windows 2003 Server? If yes, how -- I could not find any information on it.
Sincerely,
Sergei Batiuk.

I received a reply from Paul Ko at Sun Microsystems.
Paul is the product line manager for Sun's Java application server.
>
Sean,
To run the AppServer as a Windows service, you need to use 3rd party
software to enable this. The AppServer is designed to run as a
Windows application, not as a service. You can do a Google search to
find a suitable 3rd party software to fulfill you needs.
Unfortunately, we do not publish which 3rd party software can be used
to do this -- as a policy, we don't endorse any particular vendor.

Exceptions trying to run JSF on Sun App Server

Hi!
I have downloaded the Sun App Server and am trying to run the JSF Sample on it. The first page comes up fine, and when I enter data, it processes but does not come back with the response. I get the following errors:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.sun.faces.application.StateManagerImpl$TreeNode
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.sun.faces.application.WebappLifecycleListener
java.lang.IllegalStateException: No FacesContext is available to process this request.
Not sure if this is the right forum..
Thanks

Make sure you started the default server. Try
http://localhost:8080. This will allow you to see if the appserver is running. The first page is a jsp an will run regardless of if the server is running. To start the defaul server look at you windows menu under Sun Microsystems.

Web Services with Sun App Server

We are load testing a simple web service running in SJSAS 8.0 Standard. With 1 or 2 users concurrent it seems OK, but once we move up to 5 concurrent users calling the WS, the domain in SJSAS crashes.
Does anyone have experience or information regarding the app server and load with web services? Are there some config options that we can tweak? Are there any numbers out there about how many simultaneous connections the server can handle?
A final note, things seem fine if we are just serving a simple web page from the server, its only when we try to call a WS that we run into these performance issues.
Thanks.

Are you connecting to any external resource using JNDI by any chance? If you're using Unix, check the number of file descriptors being opened on the Sun App server. "new dirContext(env)" creates OS file descriptors each time it's invoked (calling the web service for example).
use
$ps -ax
get the process number of sjas and try issuing a:
lsof -p <sjas_process_number> |wc -l
and keep invoking the web service. If this number keeps increasing then you've an "fd" leak (perhaps not closing the dirContext). Linux for example has a default max file limit of 1024 under "root" user and when depleted, sjas will hang.
Could this be the problem?
Cheers
Steve

Sun App server 8 update 1 as NT service ?

Hi !
I have installed Sun App server 8 update 1 on a Windows server 2003.
Is it possible to run the application server as a NT service ?
If so, how can I accomplish this ?
/Regards Krister

While this feature is not included in the product , it has been reported that it is possible to run application server as Windows service using 3rd party utilities. Please check this thread for more information:

Connecting to EJ bean in Sun App Server 8

I am working my way through the j2eetutorial14, and have successfully built the Converter app. However, I need to run the stand-alone client, connecting to the bean, in a server-independent way. So, as part of my exercise, I copied the client code in Eclipse, and made the following changes to the code:
from the original example:
Context initial = new InitialContext();
Context myEnv = (Context) initial.lookup("java:comp/env");
Object objref = myEnv.lookup("ejb/SimpleConverter");
ConverterHome home = (ConverterHome) PortableRemoteObject.narrow(objref, ConverterHome.class);to this:
Properties properties = new Properties();
properties.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "com.sun.jndi.cosnaming.CNCtxFactory");
properties.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "corbaloc:iiop:localhost:3700");
Context initial = new InitialContext(properties);
Object objref = initial.lookup("ConverterBean");
ConverterHome home = (ConverterHome) PortableRemoteObject.narrow(objref, ConverterHome.class);Now I am getting this exception in the narrow() method:
java.lang.ClassCastException
     at com.sun.corba.se.internal.javax.rmi.PortableRemoteObject.narrow(PortableRemoteObject.java:293)
     at javax.rmi.PortableRemoteObject.narrow(PortableRemoteObject.java:134)
     at ConverterClient.main(ConverterClient.java:27)When I run the client from the script:
appclient -client ConverterAppClient.jarit works as expected. I am obviously missing something in my Eclipse runtime environment, but the manual was of no help so far. (But j2ee.jar library from C:\Sun\AppServer\lib is in the classpath.)
If anyone successfully connected to the Sun App Server 8 EJB from a stand-alone client and can share their wisdom, I will appreciate it.
On a more general note, what are the pitfalls to watch for when writing, packaging and distributing an EJB app (bean and stand-alone client) in a server-independent way? Any pointers?
Thanks for any help.
Alex.

Did you have the EJB client JAR in your classpath? Yes, and I spent all day searching the Forums for the clues. I found the answer, and was going to post it here. The client JAR was missing the RMI stubs. The process of generating the stubs is quite cumbersome - at least, the one that I discovered. It involves deploying the EAR first, then going to the Admin Console and manually setting a number of options, then collecting the sought-for JAR from the Sun App Server's applications directory. The generated file will contain the stubs, and also the Home and Remote interface files, as well as the bean class (something that the client will never need). So, I may have to write a script to strip off the needless baggage from the client JAR.
I have been working with JBoss and its plugin for Eclipse for some time now, and grew spoiled by the ease of deployment there, including the fact that the JBoss/Eclipse combo took care of the RMI stubs and many other things that Sun's server exposes to the developer.
Anyway, here is my cookbook that I made as I was working through the process of generating the stubs:
====================================
Creating a stand-alone Client:
The stand-alone client need RMI stubs to communicate with the EJ bean on the server side. To create the stubs:
1. Start the Admin Console web page (Start > All Programs > Sun Microsystems > Application Server PE > Admin Console). In the left-hand frame select: Applications > Enterprise Applications.
2 In the right-hand frame, press Deploy button.
3 Select file to upoad (navigate to the application EAR). Press Next.
4. Set Application Name field (it should be preset), and check the Generate: RMIStubs checkbox. If this procedure was done before, check the Redeploy box to force generation of the file.
5. Press OK button.
The JAR file with stubs will be placed into C:\Sun\AppServer\domains\domain1\applications\j2ee-apps directory.
The stubs have format _name_Stub.class and _nameHome_Stub.class (e.g. for Converter app the files are ConverterStub.class and ConverterHomeStub.class). These files must be extracted and placed into the client's classpath. Alternatively, the entire JAR file can be made part of the client's classpath.
====================================
Thank you for the quick reply.
Alex.

Unable to Register Sun App Server 9 in Netbeans 5.5

Hi,
I used to work on netbeans 5.5 and bundled sun app server 9. Everything was going fine. Today in the middle of a deployment in app server through netbeans, my system got hanged. So I killed the java.exe process.
Now when I again attempted to open netbeans it showed me an error that some modules in sun app server could not be found and so sun app server could not be loaded. I tried registering sun app server again in netbeans but the server name was not even coming in the drop down list of app servers.
Impatiently I uninstalled the bundled app server + netbeans through the uninstaller, and again installed the server and netbeans in a different directory. But again the same problem is coming and it is not showing the sun app server. Netbeans is opening and Sun App Server 9 is also working in isolated mode but I cant seem to find the sun app server still in the server list of netbeans.
Kindly help. I am just too frustrated.

Hi,
I have installed J2EE 5 SDK on windows XP. When I installed NetBeans 5.5.1 and tried to register it with Application Server, it got registered automatically. I had to uninstall both due to some reasons, now when I installed both j2ee and netbeans again, i see D:/Sun/AppServer folder empty and not able to register NetBeans 5.5.1 with application server. I tried again and again by reintalling but AppServer folder remains empty and not able to register. Any help for this issue??????????

Deploying a WAR file to Sun App Server 8.1 PE

So I thought that if I downloaded Sun App Server PE 8.1 and put it on my soon-to-be production machine, it should be pretty easy right?
Nope. So I have JSC update 6 (which includes Sun Application Server 8.0) (God how I wish there was a catchy name like Tomcat or something)
And I have a machine running a good copy, installed and everything, of Sun Application Server 8.1 Platform Edition (another catchy name) up on the production target.
I create a WAR file in JSC, scp it up.
Then try to deploy it - so I get bit by the no DB connection thing.
Ok, but when I copy each of my connection's attributes (the driver (which I did copy up to the lib directory) is MySQL's Connector/J)
I copy the username, password, URL and DriverClass attributes to the connection pool.
I still get a
"Operation 'pingConnectionPool' failed in 'resources' Config Mbean. Target exception message: Class name is wrong or classpath is not set for : com.sun.sql.datasource.DriverAdapter"
when I try to Ping the ConnectionPool
I have javax.sql.DataSource as the resource type... (same as 8.0 uses)
what JAR file is DriverAdapter in? anyone know?
cheers,
Kris

Okay. mysql folks - this works......
here's what happened, on the production server, different from the dev machine....
mysql 4.1.9
sun application server platform edition PE 8.1
connector/j - latest
and on the dev machine: JSC Update 6 and the app works fine on the dev machine.
first, there is a JAR file in ~whatever/Create/SunAppServer/lib/ named
driveradaptor.jar
and it it comtains
com.sun.sql.datasource.DriverAdapter
which 8.1 ain't got
and should be copied up to
/installdir/SunAppServer/domains/domain1/lib/ext/driveradapter.jar
(domain1 is your app svr domain that runs your app.)
your Connector/J JAR needs to go here too. I used:
mysql-connector-java-3.2.0-alpha-bin.jar
downloaded from mysql.com.
and then there is the whole thing about Added Properties in the Connection Pool page inside the 8.1 Admin Console (which is nice work guys). Gawd, I added a bunch of properties and am, frankly, not sure which ones actually work (for the Ping, for the initial connection creation and the eventual successful connection all seem to use different combinations...)
and I found this in the domain's domain.xml once all the admin console page filling was done - but you'll need to add each one as a Property in the connection pool:
<jdbc-connection-pool connection-validation-method="auto-commit" datasource-classname="com.sun.sql.datasource.DriverAdapter" fail-all-connections="false" [blah...]
<property name="Username" value="root"/>
<property name="Password" value="secret"/>
<property name="ValidationQuery" value="SELECT 1"/>
<property name="DriverClassName" value="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"/>
<property name="LoginTimeout" value="0"/>
<property name="Url" value="jdbc:mysql://localhost/databasename?autoReconnect=true"/>
<property name="User" value="root"/>
<property name="password" value="secret"/>
<property name="PasswordCredential" value="secret"/>
</jdbc-connection-pool>
(and you see how User and Username and username are all the same thing? well, different parts of 8.1 seem to use different attributes...)
Just keep Adding Properties in the connection pool until you get them all....
Oh and, the two key class references for the pool are:
datasource class: com.sun.sql.datasource.DriverAdapter
resource type: javax.sql.ConnectionPoolDataSource
Finally: in the /installdir/SunAppServer/domains/domain1/applications/j2ee-modules/YourAppName/WEB-INF/
your 'sun-web.xml' (don't delete it, like some have advocated, I think that wrong) needs to look like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE sun-web-app PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Application Server 8.1 Servlet 2.4//EN" "http://www.sun.com/software/appserver/dtds/sun-web-app_2_4-1.dtd">
<sun-web-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee">
<context-root>/yourcontext</context-root>
<resource-ref>
<res-ref-name>jdbc/Yourname</res-ref-name>
<jndi-name>jdbc/Yourname</jndi-name>
<default-resource-principal>
<name>root</name>
<password>secret</password>
</default-resource-principal>
</resource-ref>
</sun-web-app>
and I think that's all of it. the only Bug I would I would say is that the sun-web.xml should have the right res-ref-name, but then I think the Creator Team knows this and will fix it sometime soon.
cheers,

How to install j2ee sun app server 8.0 in debain linux

hi guys
i am new to linux and i have downloaded the j2ee sun app server 8.0(linuxversion) from sun.java
in sun.java documentation says first we have to change the mode to excecutable
then he is saying to do this
1. To run the installation program that uses a graphical interface, at the command prompt type the name of the bundle file at the command prompt.
2.To run the installation program that uses the command-line interface, at the command prompt type the name of the bundle file followed by the -console option.
after chmod + x <bundle name >
the next step i am not able to do it
what to do next
any suggestions
regards
sandeep

Hi rlubke
Thanks for the suggestion
1.Change the permission of the bundle file so that you have execute access:
chmod +x <bundle-file-name>
2. To run the installation program that uses a graphical interface, at the command prompt type the name of the bundle file at the command prompt.
3.To run the installation program that uses the command-line interface, at the command prompt type the name of the bundle file followed by the -console option.
Step 1. After chmod + x <bundle name >
Step 2. sun/appserver/# <bundle name>
bash: <bundle name>: command not found
Step 3. sun/appserver# <bundle name>
bash: <bundle name#>: command not found
any suggestions
i have done what u have said now
Step 1. After chmod + x <bundle name >
Step 2. sun/appserver/#./ <bundle name>
Checking available disk space....

Fedora core 6 sun app server won't start

Sun app server 8.2 bundled with creator 2u1 doesn't start. This install was running fine under fc5. Among other things I get the following with pe-start -reset which I think might be the crust of the problem:
"Unable to read system environment. No system environment will be used."
Any help appreciated.

Exported projects to nb5.5 with visual-web pack and after fixing datasources and libraries things are working again. Could not find a solution for Creator2 on Fedora Core 6. Thanks anyway.

I have checked around about using parameter password but when running this I get an error saying this is not valid and that I should use passwordfile
Kelvin

You haven;t specified the exceptions you r getting ........while starting your default server.
if u r getting exception about InetClass then connect your system with LAN/Internet then your problem will be solved becoz i m using same location address as you specified, space doesn't matter at all - i think so, it is running fine........

Integrating Sun App Server with WebSphere MQ

Hi,
I am using Sun App server V8.1 . I also have a websphere MQ v5.3 installed in my system. I want to integrate this MQ with the App server.
I created a queueManager and a Queue in MQ and using the JMSAdmin console of the Mq, i created jndi lookup resources using INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY=com.sun.jndi.fscontext.RefFSContextFactory
In the application server side, i created a Resource adapter using the command:
create-resource-adapter-config --property SupportsXA=true:ProviderIntegrationMode=jndi:RMPolicy=OnePerPhysicalConnection:JndiProperties=java.naming.factory.url.pkgs\\=com.ibm.mq.jms.naming,java.naming.factory.initial\\=com.sun.jndi.fscontext.RefFSContextFactory,java.naming.provider.url\\=file\\:D\\:\\MQ:LogLevel=finest mqra
Then i deployed this resource adaptor using the command :
deploy name mqra target server "D:\Sun\AppServer\lib\addons\resourceadapters\genericjmsra\genericra.rar"
Using this resource adapter i created a connection pool, connector resource and an admin object using the commands
create-connector-connection-pool raname mqra connectiondefinition javax.jms.QueueConnectionFactory transactionsupport XATransaction property ConnectionFactoryJndiName=MQQCF mymqpool
create-connector-resource --poolname mymqpool jms/MyMqQCF
create-admin-object raname mqra restype javax.jms.Queue --property DestinationJndiName=RTQueue jms/MyMqQueue
After that, i wrote a java code to lookup these resources and put a message into the queue.
This is the snippet of my java code
InitialContext ic = new InitialContext();
QueueConnectionFactory cnxFact = (QueueConnectionFactory)ic.lookup("jms/MyMqQCF");
Queue qu = (Queue)ic.lookup("jms/MyMqQueue");
try {
QueueConnection qConn = cnxFact.createQueueConnection();
QueueSession qSess = qConn.createQueueSession(false,Session.AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE);
QueueSender qSend = qSess.createSender(qu);
TextMessage msg = qSess.createTextMessage();
msg.setText("1");
qSend.send(msg);
qConn.close();
I am getting an exception in the line, QueueConnection qConn = cnxFact.createQueueConnection();
here is the stack trace

Can anybody help???

bump
update:
So to avoid this problem I added spring.jar to the server classpath. that got rid of this message but then it started complaining that its missing struts2 core jar..i added that in server classpath as well...I did same for 4 other files and in the end it said 'bean for xwork has already been initialized' (because all these jars are in the application as well).
So I am stuck. if I add all jars to server classpath..it says beans have already been initialized. If I take out the jars from server classpath then it says that stuff is missing (eg. contextLoader.properties missing - orig post)
again, all this goes away when I restart the server..so i am just trying to avoid having to restart server every code change.

Can JSC support Sun App Server 9?

Does anyone know if JSC can support sun app server 9?
Last I heard was that 8.2 is the max version.
Along the same line, is there any word of another update to JSC
that will work with app server 9 and jdk 6???

Hi!
Actually You can deploy your application to Sun App Server 9.0, but probably not all features will work. But now You can download NetBeans 5.5 and Visual Web Pack for it (it's a next step of Creator's evolution) and this IDE supports GlassFish (opensourced Sun App Server 9.0).
Thanks,
Roman.

Is soap provider agent only available for Sun app server 9.1?

See the blue print on securing web services with soap provider agent. Is this agent embedded within the J2EE agent for sun app server 9.1? Is the same "soap provider agent" available for websphere 6.x or iis server?
Thanks

the agentadmin --install script does not seem to add all the required things to the server-classpath in the domain.xml
mine now looks like this:

AND, I've added a system property:
-Dcom.sun.identity.agents.config.location=/opt/j2ee_agents/appserver_v9_agent/Agent_001/config/AMAgent.properties
