Viewing servlet data on web server

Hello, i have this servlet code snippet that gets data posted to it from an application. I know it gets the data because when i call the getInputStream() method on the connection to the servlet in the application, i can see the posted data. But my problem is that i would like to see the data displayed on the servlet web page when i call it (i.e. like when you do a submit in a web form and enter the servlet URL to which you have submitting the form data, the URL displays the form data you have just submitted).
In my case, when i enter the servlet URL in my browser, i get the " HTTP Status 405 - HTTP method GET is not supported by this URL" error message.
your help with this problem will be much appreciated.
The servlet code is:
public void doPost(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse resp) {
        try {
            int len = req.getContentLength();
            byte[] input = new byte[len];
            ServletInputStream sin = req.getInputStream();
            int c, count = 0 ;
            while ((c = sin.read(input, count, input.length-count)) != -1) {
                count +=c;
            sin.close();
            String inString = new String(input);
            int index = inString.indexOf("=");
            if (index == -1) {
                resp.setStatus(HttpServletResponse.SC_BAD_REQUEST);
                resp.getWriter().print(message);
                resp.getWriter().close();
                return;
            String value = inString.substring(index + 1);
            //decode application/x-www-form-urlencoded string
            String decodedString = URLDecoder.decode(value, "UTF-8");
             String reverseStr = (new StringBuffer(decodedString)).toString();
            resp.setContentType("text/html");
            PrintWriter out = resp.getWriter();
            out.println("<HTML>");
            out.println("<HEAD><TITLE>Hello, " + reverseStr + "</TITLE></HEAD>");
            out.println("<BODY>");
            out.println("Hello, " + reverseStr);
            out.println("</BODY></HTML>");
        } catch (IOException e) {
}

I don't think you have a problem. Since you've implemented the POST method, you're going to be submitting your data from an HTML form. So just write some HTML that does that request for you. That's how it's supposed to work. Don't bother trying to make workarounds for ways it isn't supposed to work anyway.

EVDRE encountered error retrieving the data from web Server

Hi,
I know this is the common/generic error message, following is our scenario:
We installed BPC NW 7.5 on our production box and configured F5 load balancing for two .NET servers.
We are getting the error "EVDRE encountered error retrieving the data from web Server"when we run the report EVDRE on APSHELL (original Appset). This is the fresh installation:
The workaround "Clear Local application information". Even this works only sometimes.
Is there anything else we should have configured on using two .NET servers?
Please suggest.
Thanks

hi Nagesh sorry for the delayed reply..
We changed some of the parameters at F5 switch like sticky time, timeout..
And the MDXPARSER connection to one of out application server was failling, thats why we did not had this issue consistently.
When ever the request goes to that app server fails. It took a lot effort to notice this since we were assuming the F5 switch was only causing the issue.
Thanks

Could not load servlet information from web server

I am trying to register a servlet through the web object manager.
As soon as click the web object manager menu pick I get the following
error: Could not load servlet information from web server.
On other peoples machines here it works fine and they can register
servlets. What am I missing!

You must be using Jdev 3.2.x, this is a known bug. In Jdev 9.0.2 we use the standard J2EE web.xml in order to register servlets. You should consider moving to the new IDE.

EVDRE encountered an error retriving data from web server in PROD

Hi friends,
We are checking Evdre reports in BPC production system. We checked few application' EVdre input templates & reports and are fine.
But yesterday evening onwards we are facing below error message.
EVDRE encountered an error retriving data from web server. This message we are getting for all BPC applications in BPC production. There is no short dump in backend.
But when i checked in BPC developement there is no probelm.
We are on BPC7.5 NWsp04 and BI7.01.
In BPC, production,when i try to create evdre template(just after filling
information in evdre builder), immediately getting same error information.
I read few notes, did as per that but sill problem exists. In note, mentioned process dim of particular application and process application. Logout from bpc admin & excel. I did this and, that error message not received for upto 20min. After that i'm getting error. We checked communciation between ABAP layer and bpc, reset IIS also. Still same probelm exists.
Any suggestions pls.

Hi frineds,
SAP OSS team resolved along with our basis guy.
Initially SAP supported notes:
1.1475233 and 1378705 Process all dimensions and applications.
2.1355954 Drop SAP temp tables.
3.1428764 confilict only if you use Oracle 10 g, if you don't, then forget it.
I used 1378705 and problem resolved temporarly, but still exists after 1 day.
There are different reasons for getting the error message. In our case, problem is at backend BW and, BW system running on HP unix OS.
Checked librfc32.dll in the
directory /usr/sap/BP1/DVEBMGS00/exe.
Executed the following MDX statment in MDXTEST transcaction, and it
executed in both the available instances.
SELECT
{[Measures].MEMBERS} ON COLUMNS,
[0MATERIAL].[LEVEL00].MEMBERS ON ROWS
FROM [$ZCO_CDPC].
Even i also don't have clue how SAP resolved this issue.

How to open a new web browser after posting form data to web server ?

Hi Experts,
I am using NetBeans 6.5 and I am able to post data to web server using httpconnect and i am also able to open default browser on my mobile using platformRequest(url).
But what I am trying to do is that: i want to post data (not get method) to my ASP web page and then I want my web page opens in my mobile default browser keeping my post data. Shortly I want to open my ASP page in a new browser passing some parameters from midlet using POST method (not GET)
Thanks for all kind help...

[url http://ostermiller.org/utils/Browser.java.html]This code seems to use a temporary page that uses javascript to open a new window. Haven't tried it though.

Global data in a servlet using iPlanet Web Server

Our configuration is an Applet->Servlet->JNI->C/C++ code.
We have C code that does a number of lengthy mathematical calculations. This C code not only uses its own global variables but, it is also comprised of numerous subroutines that all call each other, reading and writing global C variables as they go. These globals are all isolated to the C code shareable object (.so) library that is included using the LoadLibrary call when the servlet is initialized.
The problem is that in a multi-user environment (3-5 simultaneous users) we need to have each user have their own "copy" of the servlet (and the C code) so that users will not be accessing each other's global data. We can NOT have only one copy of the C code and define it as synchronized because the calculations that are performed can take a very long time and we can not hold off user requests while the firs user finishes.
Our hope is that there is a way to configure the iPlanet Web server such that each new user that starts up a copy of the Applet/Servlet combination will get their own "space" so that they can work independently of any other user. We have at most 20 users of this system and only 3-5 simultaneous users so we should not have a problem with memory or CPU speed.
If anyone has a solution, I would greatly appreciate it!

The C library is shareable. But you don't want it to be shared. That's your question summarized, isn't it?
You probably can't prevent it from being shared, so to prevent multiple use of it you would have to queue up the requests to be done one at a time. WynEaston's suggestion of having the servlet implement SingleThreadModel would help, but I believe the servlet spec allows servers to run multiple copies of a servlet that does that (as opposed to running a single copy in multiple threads).
Your other alternative is to rewrite the math in Java, or at least in some object-oriented language where you don't need global variables (which are the source of your problem). All right, I can already hear you saying "But that wouldn't be as fast!" Maybe not, but that isn't everything. Now you have a problem in queueing theory: do you want a single server that's fast, but jobs have to wait for it, or do you want multiple servers that aren't as fast, but jobs don't have to wait? That's a question you would have to evaluate based on the usage of your site, and it isn't an easy one.

Report generated in Forms 6i shows no data on Web server

Hi guys,
I am having an application running web server Unix platform. We have recently migrated from forms 4.5 to 6i. I have a form which generates a report. When run on Web server, the report is generated but shows no data. The report runs fine when run in the client server mode. The parameter list in the form is generated using a procedure from one of the PL/SQL libraries and this is passed to another program unit in the form which runs the report.
Any solutions for this?

Rohanb,
I had a similar situation (Reports 9i) so for all users, 95% could see the pdf and 5% get a beautyful white page...
After updating for Acrobat Reader 7, everybody see the correct result !

When viewing documents on a Web Server, IE automatically opens a blank page and then opens the document in the default program. The blank screen should close automatically but isn't happening.

So here is the situation, my company uses a third party scanning software, that puts documents scanned or created onto a webserver. We use a program that grants a user access to view the documents on the webserver. The user will have to log into the system
using credentials, we have Kerberos doing this. Once the user is logged onto the system they navigate to the document they want to view or edit. So the user wants to view a .pdf file, they click the document they want, and it is supposed to open in the default
program associated with file extension. ie: .doc would open Word, .xls would open Excel. When the document is loading in the default program Internet Explorer opens a blank page, this page is supposed to prompt the user if they want to open or save the document.
(I changed the registry to have the files selected to automatically open without this prompt.) The blank screen generated is still staying open, this screen is supposed to close automatically after the prompt or close automatically after the document is opened.
So when a user is looking at several documents, this floods the screen with all these blank Internet Explorer pages. This problem is only occurring for users that have Windows 7 PC's, XP users do not have this problem at all. My PC is the only one in the company
that is Windows 7 64-bit, and working properly with the IE blank page automatically closing. I'm wondering what can be done to fix this problem, is it as simple as registering some .dll files or do I need to make a registry change? Any help would greatly be
appreciated.

What is the registry change exactly? Sounds like one which is supposed to avoid the prompt. I know
that there used to be such a thing, before the new prompt and I know that some users think that there should be such a thing for any program but I'm not sure if that expectation is valid or not. I think this may also be related to a concurrent change
in the OS. E.g. in XP we had File Types Options editor but starting in Vista that was removed. You might get some more clues on this tack from NirSoft's FileTypesMan utility.
The registry change that I did was to remove the open and save prompt. I will be sure to look into that. Our company
isn't worried about the user's automatically opening the files since they are all trusted. They also do not have the ability to install anything, so if they were to download a potentially harmful file they could never install it. We monitor downloads as well,
if they download files off the internet that aren't work related we remove their download capabilities.
Sounds like a scenario for using ProcMon to take two traces and compare them for their essential differences.
I talked to my boss about using this tool and he is worried about using it. I'm only an intern at my office and do not have the authority to use a program without their knowledge or consent. I will run the idea by them again and see if it's okay I use this.
I'll maybe make some presentation about how it can help us with our problem and how much time and money it will save. Because I really want to get down to the bottom of this.
Probably the most significant thing is going to be the Content-type that the files are being served by.
You could use the Developer Tools, Network Capture to check on that and ProcMon could help explain what happens after that. A related workaround to change the symptom when the Content-type is not what is expected is to disable MIME Sniffing (e.g. in
Security options, Miscellaneous section). In fact, perhaps that could explain your machine's difference with anyone else? MIME Sniffing is a default, previously known as "save according to type not extension" (or some such wording).
Okay I will be completely honest I have no idea how to use Developer Tools (F12), yes I could google it, when I tried using it on the blank pages it would never work, I also have no idea what I'm looking at. I should mention that I do not have access to
the web server. Our programming and development side only has access to our AS400, which is where the web server is located. I do have MIME Sniffing enabled and so does everyone else. I may be wrong but, I believe it is needed in order to open the file extension
in the correct default program, yes? I thought MIME Sniffing would see a .docx file and then find the appropriate program to open that .docx file in. I may be wrong but I know it's used somehow along these lines.

How to publish a servlet class to web server?

background:
web server: tomcat apache 4
context path: webapp\test\
servlet path: webapp\test\WEB-INF
servlet name: HelloWorld.class
i tried to placed the servlet class file to above servlet path,
but i can't invoke the servlet by http://localhost:8080/test/HelloWorld
what should i do in order to invoke the servlet at browser?
Is a web.xml necessary a must to provided a mapping between request name and actual class name?

First of all you need a *.war structure which look like this
/app-name
/app-name/WEB-INF/
/app-name/WEB-INF/lib
/app-name/WEB-INF/classes
When you have created this structure you add your servlet (HelloWorld.class) in the classes directory (Create the package structure first).
When this is done you need to map the servlet to a given uri which is done in the web.xml. An example is found below:
<servlet>
<servlet-name>hello</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>package.HelloWorld</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>hello</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/hello/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
Hopefully this will help :-)
best regards

View temporary data in Web layout during file upload in Integrated Planning

Hi Experts,
When using File Upload funcationality, in Integrated Planning,
I have a requirment, How user can view the data in the web layout?
After data display user can make changes in the data and on click of Save the updated data is saved in cube.
If any one has come across this requirment can you please help me out how things can be carried out?
If "how to implement" document is present can you please provide me the link.
Thanks and Regards,
Abhi

Hi Abhi,
I assume, you are using WAD for this..
Please do the following: (Please note the the cube has to be in Plan mode while executing WAD)
1. Create a input enable query (through query designer) on th eaggregate level (the one you are using for IP). You might need to create filers for the aggregate level. these filters can also be used in the query.
2. In the WAD, pull this query.
3. Create a button in WAD and check for the planning functionalities readily available that you can use in WAD. One of the planning functionality is SAVE Data. This will save any data which is entered by the user.
4. In the same button integrate a Refresh Data command after the SAVE data. This will automatically refresh the query and pull the updated/changed data from the cube.
This should work. Please write back in case of any clarification.
Regards, Rishi

EVDRE encountered an error when retrieving data from web server

Hi
When I am trying to open Data Input=>Build a schedule using a dynamic template in BPC version for SAP netweaver, I am getting the below error "EVDRE encountered an error retrieving data from the Web Server".
I am not able to open any template, every time I am getting the same message. I have tried again after reprocessing all the dimension.
Even I have tried in appset APSHELL also, there also I am getting the same error
Request you to help me to resolve the above error which will allow me to proceed further.
Thanks in Advance.
Venkat

Hi,
Beside Nilanjan's solution, this error could also occur when the expansion is running more rows than the Excel limit allows (65'000 rows and 256 cols for Excel 2003)...
Even when you're using suppress field to reduce the number of rows, the first sequence is to retrieve the complete dataset before performing any suppression. And this could of course exceed the limit sometimes.
Hope this helps.
Kind Regards,
Patrick

Question on Running Servlet on a Web Server

Hi,
I got an example servlet here:
import java.io.*;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
public class HelloWorldServlet extends HttpServlet {
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws IOException, ServletException
response.setContentType("text/html");
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
out.println("<html>");
out.println("<body>");
out.println("<head>");
out.println("<title>Hello World!</title>");
out.println("</head>");
out.println("<body>");
out.println("<h1>Hello World!</h1>");
out.println("</body>");
out.println("</html>");
I compiled this into HelloWorldServlet.class and sent it to a web server. How can I use a web browser to check if it is running on the web server? I am supposed to see "Hello World" in my browser, right?
Do I need to run J2EE server on the web server?
Many thanks in advance.

Servlet data to web page

Hi,
I am working with a web page, in which I have created a form for user input. I would like to send a message to a servlet requesting database status to validate the user input prior performing some client side javascript. I just do not know how to transfer the data returned from the servlet into javascript variables. I do not want to post the data or refresh the page, just use the returned data for javascript performed validation. Any help would be appreciated.
