Using Astaro with SL Server Tools

Is there anyone using the Astaro security software/hardware with SL or Leopard Server? If so have you been able to find what ports need to be open so Admins can use the Admin tools outside of the LAN that the Astaro is protecting. We have been able to get most ports open in Astaro to have mail work and for other web services to be seen. But something is blocking use of Server Admin and Workgroup Manager outside of the LAN. We are not sure how these tools are accessing SL Server but we must be missing an undocumented apple port that needs to be open.
Thanks

Port 311 looks to be the one you want. There may be another port you need to open?
Tony
We got that port, also ports 660 (MacOS Server Admin) and 687 (Ad server admin to uses). We have most (all?) ports on the support list open but since we added Astaro we cannot do Server Admin tool outside the LAN. Seems there is some other port not on list we have missed.
Russ
Ok we got it. it was port 660, I thought we had it open. You need both 660, and 311, also for screen share you need 5900. 687 is not needed.

Using log4j with portal server

Hi,
I am trying to use log4j with Portal server 6.1 using log taglibs from jakarta.
Here is what i've done:
1. copy taglibs-log.jar in /etc/opt/SUNWps/desktop/classes
2. copy taglibs-log.tld in /etc/opt/SUNWps/desktop/default/tld
3. put log statements in JSPs
for example:
<log:debug>This is body content.</log:debug>
<log:debug message="This is attribute content." />

Use GetNewObjectKey with DI Server?

HI
I'm converting from DI API to DI Server and want to know if there is a way to use GetNewObjectKey with DI Server?
Thanks

Hi Avish!
You don't need to use GetNewObjectKey when using the DI Server. When you add/update/close/remove an object, you get the new key in the reply of the command.
For example, the following request:
<dis:AddObject xmlns:dis="http://www.sap.com/SBO/DIS">
<BOM>
<BO>
   <AdmInfo>
    <Object>oBusinessPartners</Object>
   </AdmInfo>
   <BusinessPartners>
    <row>
     <CardCode>NewBP</CardCode>
    </row>
   </BusinessPartners>
</BO>
</BOM>
</dis:AddObject>
Will return the following response:
<dis:AddObjectReponse xmlns:dis="http://www.sap.com/SBO/DIS">
<RetKey>NewBP</RetKey>
</dis:AddObjectReponse>

Problem with web server tools

Hi,
I have a strange problem. I have a multi instance coldfusion MX 7 server installed on a server. I have several instances created and linked with several IIS websites.
I did it with the java tool webserver configuration tool, but now when I try to add a new link with a new instance and a new website I got the warning message :
No available port could be found for Jrun Server XXXXX proxy service.
I searched a lot on google but found nothing on that issue

Process p = Runtime.getRuntime(
ime( ).exec(phpCompiler + " " + htdocs + "" +
fileName);
BufferedReader is = new BufferedReader(new
(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream( )));
               while ((line = is.readLine( )) != null)
                    output.write(liner.getBytes());
     } else {
code]
Now, this basically works fine, BUT there are two
little problems:
The PHP compiler's output on the console always
starts with
X-Powered-By: PHP/5.2.0
Content-type: text/html
The problem is that this is also included in the Web
Servers output. So the page that the client receives
also always starts with the above message.
The other problem is that the Java program reads the
PHP compiler's output in one single line.
So I'm looking for an alternative method to read the
PHP compiler's output from the console and for a way
to delete this message(X-Powered-By: PHP/5.2.0...)
from the beginning of the compiler's output.
Your help is appreciated.
To remove the starting text, you may try it manually if it's contant text. For example:
liner = liner.substring("X-Powered-By: PHP/5.2.0...".length());
If your liner variable contain one big line of your output, then your compiler's output linefeed must be different than the JVM you used to run your java program. Find out what your newline char(you may check your byte values) is on your php Compiler output and then you may manually trying to split it. For example:
String[] lines = liner.split("\r");
Hope these help.

Using Hprof with Commerce Server 3.5

My company is beginning the move to J2EE and I have been tasked with researching
profilers. I quickly came across Hprof, which is provided by the Sun JVM through
the use of the -Xrunhprof option. I have been able to successfully profile a
very small test application (stand alone app). However, I run into problems when
I use Hprof and try to start the example server provided with Commerce Server
3.5 (with WebLogic 6.0). Please see below for my syntax and results.
Syntax
%JAVA_HOME%\bin\java -Xrunhprof:cpu=times,doe=y .....
Results
The server appears to start and work correctly (no HRPOF ERROR: messages). When
I shut it down (using the console) and look at the java.hprof.txt file that is
created, the hprof data has not been fully written to the file. The file ends
in the middle of a trace:
TRACE 6687:
java/net/URLStreamHandler.getDefaultPort(URLStreamHandler.java:Unknown line)
I am curious if anyone has run into this problem before and how they might have
corrected it. Can anyone suggest a set of Hprof parameters to use? Or provide
a link to a good description of all of the parameters (I haven't found a lot of
documentation on it)?
I know that there are other commercial profilers (JProbe, Optimizeit, etc.) but
I would like to learn the basics before diving into them.
Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks

Problem in using MDB with Foregin Server

Hi, anyone can help me? I am currently using Weblogic 11g, 10.3.5, development edition locally in my desktop.
My scenario is I have to using an MDB to monitor a queue in a Tibco EMS queue (lookup with LDAP server).
I create a JMS Server, and a JMS module with a Foreign Server configured. In the module, I specified "JNDI Initial Connection Factory", "JNDI Connection URL", "JNDI Credentirals", etc.
In the module, I have a Queue with local jndi name: jms/MyReqQueue and a Connection Factory, jms/MyReqCF (with password setup).
I created an MDB with annotations, and packaged into a EAR
@MessageDestinationConfiguration(connectionFactoryJNDIName = "jms/MyReqCF")
@MessageDriven(
          activationConfig = {
                    @ActivationConfigProperty(propertyName = "destinationType", propertyValue = "javax.jms.Queue"),
                    @ActivationConfigProperty(propertyName = "connectionFactoryJndiName", propertyValue = "jms/MyReqQueue")
          mappedName = "jms/MyReqQueue")
public class FortressOrderProcMDBean implements MessageListener {
I created a testing program, which create an initial context, connection factory, queue myself to the weblogic server using my local jndi names, then i can receive mesages from the queue properly, so the JMS Foreign Server should work fine.
However, I got the foilowing error withn deploying the MDB.
[EJB:011012]The JMS connection factory with the JNDI name: weblogic.jms.MessageDrivenBeanConnectionFactory could not be found. Please ensure that the JNDI name
in the weblogic-ejb-jar.xml or corresponding annotation is correct, and the JMSconnection factory has been deployed.
javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: [LDAP: error code 32 - No Such Object]; remaining name 'ou=weblogic.jms.MessageDrivenBeanConnectionFactory' NestedException
Message is :[LDAP: error code 32 - No Such Object]>
Thanks

Your annotated MDB does not seem to be correct. The error indicates that the connection factory jndi name of the MDB was not set correctly.
Please refer to the following doc for an sample.

The problem we are having when the second member of a cluster is down the report server component complaints with somw internal error...

          Admin server is not supposed to participate in the cluster. I wouldn't
          deploy anything on the admin server.
          I think my personal preferene would be connection factories to the cluster
          and use distributed destinations.

Architecture for using MDB with a server cluster

          Hi,
          I would like to get some advice on the architecture that is the most desirable
          for a scenario that I have here.
          I have 3 machines, each running a managed server belonging to the same cluster.
          My admin server runs on a 4th machine. I have deployed my MDB on the cluster and
          I'm trying to find a way to configure the 3 + 1 machines to give the best end-to-end
          time for processing the JMS messages.
          To investigate this, I'm running some simple benchmark tests with a client application
          that sends JMS messages to the system. The client repeatedly sends messages to
          the MDB's queue and the MDB puts processed messages to another queue that the
          client is listening to.
          Now, my question is: where should I set the target for my JMS server (and hence
          my queues) and the connection factories? I can think of a few possiblities:
          1. Connection factories target: cluster; JMS server target: one of the servers
          in the cluster
          -> Potential drawback - The server with the JMS server will be handling and redistributing
          the JMS messages to other servers in the cluster. This means that a portion of
          its processing power is used to do this instead of actually having the MDB process
          the JMS message. (Please correct me if i'm wrong)
          2. Connection factories target: cluster; JMS server target: have one JMS server
          for each server in the cluster and make use of distributed destinations
          -> Potential drawback - My client establishes connection with the MDB's queue
          only once before it sends its messages to it. Probably as a result of this and
          the way WebLogic clusters load-balance themselves, all the messages end up being
          routed to the same server. This option appears to be out since 2 of the 3 servers
          are not utilized at all.
          3. Connection factories target: admin server; JMS server target: admin server
          -> Potential drawback - The MDB has to maintain a queue connection with a server
          that is not part of the cluster. (Again, please correct me if I'm wrong.) I'm
          not sure if this introduces extra time taken for the MDB to receive its messages
          and for it to send the processed messages to the queue.
          I'd appreciate it if someone could advice me on the most desirable architecture
          to use here. From my understanding of the problem, option 3 seems to be the answer,
          but I may be wrong. Perhaps there is no significant difference in terms of performance
          that 3 can give, compared to 1 and 2.
          One last question. I'd like to understand, in option 1, if the admin server plays
          any part in load-balancing the cluster. Are the JMS messages received on the cluster's
          JMS queue forwarded to the admin server before they are rerouted to the server
          that is supposed to process it?
          Cheers,
          C.Y.

Is Lion Server just Lion with added server tools ?

From what I am reading, buying Lion Server is just the same as buying Lion..... except you get some additional tools ? I have never had the server version of OS X before... but I always thought that installing the Server version (at least prior to Lion) would not always give you the same experience as purchasing the non-server version....
I only own mac laptops right now, but was thinking seriously about using one for a server..... and for $49 I can get it, install it as a server on one, and non-server on the remainder ?

Correct.

Help!! Anyone use IIS4 with developer server

Hello folks,
My current setup
NT Application server :
1) Developer server6.0
2) IIS4.0
NT Oracle RDBMS
1) Oracle8i
The commumication between between the 2 servers using SQLNET has
no problem. I tested it using the SCOTT/TIGER combination.
But I need to setup the web connection where the browser is able
to connect to the RDBMS server for queries and data retriever.
I have tried using the form server, which I found the following
documentations to connect to the RDBMS.
ORACLE_HOME%\tools\devdem60\web\readme.htm
Although the readme file is for OWA server, I attempted the
configuration with IIS4.0. I understand the only different is
the configuration of virtual directory. There is a part in
configuration inthe readme file about editing "registry.dat"
file. This file contain "funny" character which make it
difficult to edit. Not sure if I have done it right.
Nevertheless, the configuration process is done, but when I load
the web page to execute the scripts, nothing appear on the
screen on the web browser.
1) Has anyone been successful in configuring this part of the
scripts ? Please tell me wrong may has gone wrong.
2) Has anyone use webDB to be the interface for web to database
interface ?
3) Is there any documented way beside CGI to get connect to the
database via web ?
I appreciate any pointers
Thank you very much

To use ADF with other Development tool

Can I plug the the ADF framework into other development tools such as the IBM's[b] websphere studio and Borland's JBuilder?
(Currently neither the WebSphere Studio nor the JBuilder, to the best of my knowledge, has the capability of the ADF has. Basically, with those tools you have to write a lot of codes to do the database updates, etc.)
Thanks.

ADF is a bunch of Jar files and the application is a bunch of Java and XML files - so yes you can take this and use any IDE to edit the files.
But currently JDeveloper is the only tool that has the visual development environment for ADF.

Using FDF with Workflow server

Hello all,
I've got a PDF created with Acrobat Pro.
I've made some actions in it to get and post data from and to FDF files (genererated by a PHP program). Everything works perfectly. I can get, with acrobat reader or pro, all the data I want.
But i've tried to put it in the workflow server and it does not work. When I click on my button to get data, it does not work. Do you have an idea where the problem is ?
Regards,
Matt
(I've passed it through reader extentions)

Hey Matt,
Check the topic on PDF/HTML Forms on Workflow Server 6.2 posted by Marcelo Machado.
My answare was as follows, and he got back to me... It worked fine...
Regards.
"Hi, Marcelo.
That one is quite simple.... All you gotta do is to create the basic Action fields on your form and to script a submit button as follows:
1 - Create a hidden form field called JFWF_PDFINFO;
2 - Create the action list box called JFWF_ACTION;
3 - Create a button, which will run a JavaScript on the MouseUP event.
Here's the secret:
When you create a PDF form outside the Designer (e.g. using MS Word and Acrobat 6.0, for an instance) you have to customize the script for the Submit button. This is an example of a script that should be run on the MouseUP event of your submit button:
var boEnvia = true;
var oPDFInfoField = this.getField("JFWF_PDFINFO");
var aPDFInfo = oPDFInfoField.value.split(";");
var sTargetURL = "";// first element is the URL to post to
var sCleared = "";
var sRadioButtons = "";
if (boEnvia){
// see if potential checked checkboxes have been cleared
for (var i = 1; i < aPDFInfo.length; i++) { var aNameValue = aPDFInfo[i].split("="); var sName = aNameValue[0]; var sValue = aNameValue[1];
if (sName == "XFIELDS") {
var aFieldNames = sValue.split(",");
for ( var x = 0; x < aFieldNames.length; x++) { var oField = this.getField(aFieldNames[x]);
if (oField != null && oField.type == "checkbox" && !oField.isBoxChecked(0)) {
if (sCleared == "")
sCleared = ";UNCHECKED=" + aFieldNames[x];
else
sCleared += "," + aFieldNames[x];
else if (sName == "TARGETURL")
sTargetURL = sValue;
// Save radio button names...
for (var x = 0; x < this.numFields; x++) { if (this.getField(this.getNthFieldName(x)).type == "radiobutton") { if (sRadioButtons == "") sRadioButtons = ";RB=" + this.getNthFieldName(x); else sRadioButtons += "," + this.getNthFieldName(x); } }
if (app.viewerVersion < 6) { oPDFInfoField.value += "ENCODING=PDFDocEncoding" + sCleared + sRadioButtons this.submitForm( sTargetURL, false, // HTML form true, // Post all fields (true), or do Not post all fields (false) null, false, // Use post method (false) false); // For forms, do not submit annotations } else{ oPDFInfoField.value += "ENCODING=UTF-8" + sCleared + sRadioButtons; this.submitForm({cURL: sTargetURL, bEmpty: true, // Post all fields (true), or do Not post all fields (false) cSubmitAs: "HTML", // Post URL-Encoded cCharset: "utf-8"}); }

Use AD with InDesign Server

Hi,
we use adobe bridge CS5 with adobe drive 2.1 and version cue CS4 - everything works fine!
now we try to connect our InDesign Server CS4 and CS5 with VC CS4 through AD 2.1, means
our IDS should generate pagepics or pdfs from InDesign documents.
Everything works fine while the IDS and ID use a normal UNC path for a picture link.
but now, if the picture is placed in indesign and it is linked to version cue (through drive)
the ids could "see" the link, but can't use it to generate the pagepic or the pdf.
the server does not sent a reasonable error or warning, it just generates the pagepics by using the picture
thumbnail. for example: if we placed an illustrator .ai file in the Indesign document the
server will only show a grey area in the pagepic instead of the right .ai file.
if the server tries to generate the pdf, it stops with error announcement: "error while generating the pdf file"
the IDS works on a windows 2008 R2 server. VC CS4 is also hosted on the same server.
we tried to solve the problem by hosting version cue on a mac or an other windows machine,
but the problem is still the same. we know that IDS is not listed in the system requirement list
of Adobe Drive but maybe there could be a solution to use it anyway?!
thx for all helpful answers!
greetings
stineson

Stineson-
Hi I was wondering if you ever overcame this the issue with bad IDS link to an Adobe Drive volume. I'm trying to do the samething for a different purpose. When I place a piece of art on an InDesign page from Adobe Drive the HFS path looks normal.
When I see IDS process the same file, with the same availability to the art. I get the following logging in IDS:
03/31/15 17:13:25 ERROR [link manager] Link missing.; adobevc:/Volumes/OTMM/Public%20Folders/MEI%20TEST/P48_002.jpg?NjQxMjlhMGYtOTMyMS00Yjg2LTg5YWItYTZkYjVkNTlhZjdiAAAvUHVibGljIEZvbGRlcnMvTUVJIFRFU1QvUDQ4XzAwMi5qcGcqYzZhNmJhZGI1YThjYzhiNDYyOWM1ZjY3YWJmNGQyOWIwZjVmZjMyYQAvUHVibGljIEZvbGRlcnMqQVJURVNJQS5QVUJMSUMuVFJFRU4AL1B1YmxpYyBGb2xkZXJzL01FSSBURVNUL1A0OF8wMDIuanBn
