Trailing spaces in env-entry-type elements

Hi,
We have been porting our EJB application from another app server over to Oracle iAS (9.0.3 Lite) and have encountered a rather frustrating problem.
We have an CMP (2.x) entity bean that has ejbSelect methods. There are corresponding <query> blocks in the ejb-jar.xml file for these methods. In the same ejb-jar.xml file there are <env-entry> blocks that setup a few things that are needed by the bean.
If the <env-entry-type> element is written as "<env-entry-type>java.lang.String </env-entry-type>" (note the trailing space after the type name) the following exception occurs during deployment of the ear file;
java.lang.InstantiationException: Failure to initialize EJBQL descriptors: com.sun.enterprise.deployment.xml.ContentTransformationException: java.lang.String is not an allowed property value type

Error during deployment: Failure to initialize EJBQL descriptors: com.sun.enterprise.deployment.xml.ContentTransformationException: java.lang.String is not an allowed property value type
Removing the trailing space and the deployment proceeds to completion without exceptions.
I should also add that if the ejbSelect methods are remove d from the application and the trailing space left in place the resulting ear file will deploy sucessfully.
It is trivial to reproduce this problem with the ORMAP demo that ships with 9.0.3.
This was a really subtle problem that is not present on the *3* other appserver implementations that our application runs on. It was very frustrating to locate and perhaps some consideration could be given to how PCDATA is handled when parsing <env-entry-type> blocks.
Cheers,
Mick.

Hi ,
Create two Characteristic InfoObjects in BW With length 60 Char and then in the Transfer Rules of this two InfoObjects write the Formula using Left() and right() function present in the Formula Builder .
That is First infoObject Contains the Left 60 Char and next one Contains the right 60 Char.

env-entry-mapping element is removed during deployment process

I overwrite the variable value defined in ejb-jar.xml by the one defined in orion-ejb-jar.xml using <env-entry-mapping> element. But after my appliocation has deployed I don't find this element in the application orion-ejb-jar.xml. Oracle AS just removes this element from the descriptor!
ejb-jar.xml:
<env-entry>
<env-entry-name>server</env-entry-name>
<env-entry-type>java.lang.String</env-entry-type>
<env-entry-value>172.38.48.12</env-entry-value>
</env-entry>
orion-ejb-jar.xml:
<session-deployment name="Inventory" max-instances="-1" location="Inventory">
<env-entry-mapping name="server">dummy</env-entry-mapping>
</session-deployment>
Can anybode help?

Avi!
Of course, I had tried it before I wrote the question. I put the modified xml file into the application area. After that AS restarts OC4J instance. And then I find my xml without any changes I made! I tried to do the same thing from the AS console. The same!

env-entry element in ejb-jar.xml

I just started to create my ejb-jar.xml (deployment descriptor file) manually so
that I won't depend on those generated by proprietary IDEs.
The ejb-jar_2_0.dtd specifies that env-entry is used in
entity, message-driven, and session elements.
My question is - When do we use the element <env-entry>? Under what
circumstances that ejb-jar_2_0.dtd necessitates its provision in the ejb-jar.xml
in relation to entity, message-driven, and session elements?

Hi,
I've same prob here
<env-entry>
<env-entry-name>config.file.location</env-entry-name>
<env-entry-type>java.lang.String</env-entry-type>
<env-entry-value>C:/bea/ITReportingConf.xml</env-entry-value>
</env-entry>
Right now config file is out side of my EAR, How can i put it within the EAR I tried with changing the
<env-entry-value>/ITReportingConf.xml</env-entry-value> Value
But i dont know which dir it is refering to and where should i put "ITReportingConf.xml" File
Thanks

Validation error when using env-entry in web.xml

I've added an env-entry element to my web.xml and it falls over at deploy time with a validation error. However, from what I can see, this is valid based on the schema.
And infact, it matches the example in the weblogic doco - http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs103/webapp/web_xml.html#wp1025195
The error I'm getting is:

Found a resolution to this in the end.
Unless you have the sub-elements in the order below, it will get validation errors.

About env-entry

Hi,
I am trying to develop a session bean. I have three environment
properties. I declared them in my ejb-jar.xml
file like this:
<enterprise-beans>
<session>
<env-entry> (this is line 11)
<env-entry-name>..... </env-entry-name>
<env-entry-type> ... ...</env-entry-type>
<env-entry-value> ... ...</env-entry-value>
</env-entry>
</session>
</enterprise-beans>
I jared this deployment descriptor and my ejb class files together. When I
tried to deploy them in the deployer tool, I got this parser error message:
"session" element does not allow "env-entry" here on line11.
Can somebody help me?
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards
Jeff

Each ejb component (defined by an ejb-name in its corresponding ejb-jar.xml) has its own private component namespace -- java:comp/env. If your ejb is processing an invocation in a business method, say foo(), any lookups to java:comp/env will resolve to that ejb's private namespace. This is also true if you call some utility class from the ejb class. What matters is which ejb is currently active on a particular thread. The lookup doesn't have to be performed from the ejb implementation class itself.

Accessing env-entry value from a java class

Hi,
I have my env-entry element declared in ejb-jar.xml like this
<env-entry>
<env-entry-name>ConfigFile</env-entry-name>
<env-entry-type>java.lang.String</env-entry-type>
<env-entry-value>centaur</env-entry-value>
</env-entry>
and if I access that value from the EJB of that ejb-jar.xml, it is giving the right value. But when I am trying to retrieve the same from a java class, that is throwing exception "javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: Unable to resolve 'ConfigFile' Resolved ; remaining name 'ConfigFile'"
I think this is because env-entry has access to only EJB to maintain security?
or can env-entry elemenets cab be accessed outside the EJB and some thing I am doing wrong here?
can some one help me here?

Hey Frank,
The JCo, DI API and DB are all on PL 18. I have found that the error only occurs for one business partner, and that business partner had a service contract added to it the day before the error started to occur. Also the business partner in question is the only business partner with a service contract which would explain why it is the only one experiencing these problems. It could be a coincidence but I will let you know what the outcome is.

          can some one help me here?

The java:comp/env namespace is local to the J2EE component (ie the EJB).
          You could certainly have a business method that returned the value and call the business method from a java class.
          Or your EJB could lookup the env-entry in JNDI and store it in another data structure.

Query Reg env-entry in ejb jar xml

Hi,
I have the following tag in the ejb-jar of my application:
<env-entry>
<env-entry-name>postingDate</env-entry-name>
<env-entry-type>java.lang.String</env-entry-type>
<env-entry-value>Request</env-entry-value>
</env-entry>
When a JNDI LookUp is done for this variable in the application, it doesn't pick up the value of the variable which is "Request" but it picks up the Value of the Posting Date.
I need to know how this works!
Just an Fyi, Posting Date is a date entered from the UI.

I feel it is like declaring global and local variables with the same name and trying to access that variable.

Use of env-entry in ejb-jar

In my ejb-jar.xml I have a Session bean with a env-entry:
<env-entry>

<env-entry-type>java.lang.String</env-entry-type>
<env-entry-value>pdftemplate.xsl</env-entry-value>
</env-entry>
In a class where I use the bean I make a lookup of this env-entry (using the same
context):
Context environment = (Context)ctx.lookup("java:comp/env/");
val = (String)environment.lookup("xslNameFile");
And I have the following Exception:
javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: Unable to resolve 'comp/env/xslNameFile' Reso
lved: 'comp/env' Unresolved:'xslNameFile' ; remaining name 'xslNameFile'
What I m doing wrong??
Could anyone help me?
Thanks

HI ,
The Primary Purpose of <env-entry> tag
is used to Customize your bean at Runtime
and to Make your bean as an DataDriven one.
( instead of Storing it in DataBase )

Env-entry-mapping in orion-application-client not available in JNDI lookup

I have an application client module in my EAR file that I've configured to auto-start.
It has a few env-entry defined in it's application-client.xml.
When I deploy the EAR file to OC4J 10.1.3, the application client module gets started and can access these env-entry properties from its JNDIContext.
Now, comes the problem. During the deployment process, I edit the Deployment Plan, and change the env-entry property values, and then deploy the application.
However, the application client module still gets the original values when it does the JNDI lookups of those env-entry names.
I have checked to see that OC4J creates an orion-application-client.xml during deployment and it shows the env-entry-mapping elements with the updated values.
Why is the JNDI lookup returning the values from application-client.xml and not the overriden values set in orion-application-client.xml?
I have tried this on OC4J 10.1.3, as well as 10.1.3.1.0 - got same behavior.
Is this a bug in OC4J? This seems to work fine with ejb modules, but not application client modules.
Thanks,
Kalpak

Avi!
Of course, I had tried it before I wrote the question. I put the modified xml file into the application area. After that AS restarts OC4J instance. And then I find my xml without any changes I made! I tried to do the same thing from the AS console. The same!

Move env-entry from web.xml into deployment plan

I have:
<env-entry>
<env-entry-name>USERNAME</env-entry-name>
<env-entry-value>someUser</env-entry-value>
<env-entry-type>java.lang.String</env-entry-type>
</env-entry>
and I'd like to move it from web.xml into my_app_plan.dat. Is it possible? How?
Thank you in advance!

Let me describe my case in few more words...
I have some kind of client-server app. Clients have OC4J installed and they download myApp.ear and myApp_plan.dat files and by using script (Windows CMD batch file) clients install those files with admin_client.jar, OC4J's admin utility. The problem is that I have 2 different types of clients and I have client specific settings set in web.xml file and each time I compile myApp.ear I have to uncomment/comment some lines in web.xml.
So, to make a long story short, I need a way to deploy those settings separated from (outside of) myApp.ear. By following you link, I have read that orion-web.xml should reside inside WEB-INF folder of myApp.ear, which is not good for me.

Naming exception when using env-entry

My ejb.jar.xml file contains:

<env-entry-type>java.lang.String</env-entry-type>
<env-entry-value>d:\\planadminserver.ior</env-entry-value>
</env-entry>
I use the following code to do a lookup:
InitialContext ic = new InitialContext();
String filename =
(String) ic.lookup("java:comp/env/iorFileName");
This works fine on my machine. But when we moved the code to
another machine, we get a NamingException. Any ideas as to why
this should be?

Env-entry from web.xml not in generated plan.xml
