Weblogic development environment on Solaris

I have sucessfuly installed Weblogic 5.1 on Solaris and want to proceed
to create a development environment, so I copied the myserver directory
to /path/to/weblogic/dev and copied weblogic.properties to the same, I
then copied startWebLogic.sh to startDev.sh and altered both to point to
my new server and runned the startDev script. The server started, but
using the weblogic.properties in my weblogic directory. I was told by my
instructor that WLS would look inside the directory of the specified
server for another instance of weblogic properties, but it does not seem
to find it. Am I missing something?

The properties file is hierarchical. So, if you have a properties file located in the servername directory and one in the root WebLogic installation, the properties file located in the servername directory will overwrite any properties that were previously defined in the root WebLogic installation properties file.

Migrating C/C++Development environment from Solaris 6 OS to Solaris 10 OS.

Hi,
I have several questions. Hope i can get some advises.
I am tasks to do a migration for my current Development environment from Solaris 6 OS to Solaris 10 OS.
Current Scenaros:
=============
My Development environment is on Solaris 6 OS machine ( 5.6 Generic_105181-31 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-2 )
and where i did my C/C++ codings and compilation for my company software application.
We have purchased a new machine Solaris 10 OS machine ( 5.10 Generic_125100-07 sun4u sparcSUNW,Sun-Fire-V210 )
with the objective to replace the old development H/W and OS.
The machine ( Solaris 6 OS) where the software application currently is running will also be replace with a new machine ( Solaris 10 OS).
The Software application is purely C/C++ codings and has no database requirements.
The application is make up of several executables and they utilise the Solaris Unix queues.
The source codes are compiled using Sun compiliers and libraries.
Problems:
========
I did the followings:
1. Installed the Solaris 10 OS machine with all the necessary compilers and libraries for my C/C++ codes.
2. I ported over all my sourcecodes and makefiles from the old machine ( Solaris 6 ) to the new machine ( Solaris 10 )
3. I did a recompilation of the source codes on the new Solaris 10 machine and hit many errors as followings:
"/opt/SUNWspro/prod/include/CC/rw7/rw/rstream.h", line 46: Error: The name istream is ambiguous, istream and std::istream.
"/opt/SUNWspro/prod/include/CC/rw7/rw/rstream.h", line 46: Error: The type "istream" is incomplete.
"/opt/SUNWspro/prod/include/CC/rw7/rw/stringid.h", line 50: Error: The name ostream is ambiguous, ostream and std::ostream.
"/opt/SUNWspro/prod/include/CC/rw7/rw/stringid.h", line 50: Error: The name ostream is ambiguous, ostream and std::ostream.
"/opt/SUNWspro/prod/include/CC/rw7/rw/rwdate.h", line 82: Error: The name istream is ambiguous, istream and std::istream.
"/opt/SUNWspro/prod/include/CC/rw7/rw/vstream.h", line 92: Error: The name ios is ambiguous, ios and std::ios.
"/opt/SUNWspro/prod/include/CC/rw7/rw/vstream.h", line 92: Error: eofbit is not a member of ios.
"/opt/SUNWspro/prod/include/CC/rw7/rw/locale.h", line 115: Error: The name ios is ambiguous, ios and std::ios.
"/opt/SUNWspro/prod/include/CC/rw7/rw/rwdate.h", line 151: Error: The name ostream is ambiguous, ostream and std::ostream.
"/opt/SUNWspro/prod/include/CC/rw7/rw/rwerr.h", line 197: Error: The name ios is ambiguous, ios and std::ios.
"/opt/SUNWspro/prod/include/CC/rw7/rw/cstring.h", line 347: Error: The name istream is ambiguous, istream and std::istream.
Questions:
========
1. Can anyone advise on these errors messages that i am seeing?
2. Can i say that as long i can successful recompile my codes on Solaris 10 , my application will work?
3. Can i simply copy my application ( Compiled in Solaris 6 ) directly to the new Solaris 10 machine and expect it to run properly? What are the concerns if i adopt this approach.
Regards,
Edwin

Questions:
========
1. Can anyone advise on these errors messages that i am seeing?My guess would be that the names have changed from Solaris 6 to Solaris 10.
2. Can i say that as long i can successful recompile my codes on Solaris 10 , my application will work?No. I've seen GNU utilities that compile without error and then fail on make test or make check. A clean compile only means that, a clean compile nothing more.
3. Can i simply copy my application ( Compiled in Solaris 6 ) directly to the new Solaris 10 machine and expect it to run properly? What are the concerns if i adopt this approach.It might. The easiest way to find out is to just move it and see what happens. On a test machine of course.

Setting up the development environment

hi,
can anybody suggest the best way to set up the weblogic server
development environment.
we are a group of 5 EJB developers working on weblogic 7.0.
(evaluation version)
each one is developing ejbs which has to interact with other
developer's beans.
each one has installed the server on their own m/c. for developing and
testing the beans.
Once done, integration of the ejbs is done on another server and
tested.
should we use a single server for development? but that may lead to
shutdown/ restart of the server frequently during testing and affect
the other developer's work.
anybody please suggest a better way.
thanks in advance.

anilYour milleage may vary from others, here we had this environment setup for
a 7 people developing WLS applications:
- Single server for development (Sun Solaris box)
- using remote telnet from Windows workstation/linux workstation
- create a source code repository (e.g. CVS) for source code control and
user workspace
- create standard deployment descriptor with modular directory structures
- system admin only allowed to startup and shutdown server
- server running in "Development Mode" for hotdeploy and avoid shutdown
and restart.

(realistic) system requirements for development environment under Forms 11g

Hello !
How are the realistic system requirements for a complete development environment
under Forms 11g (Forms11g/Reports11g/Weblogic-Server) ?
From our experience there is a problem with the RAM-limitation of Windows 32 bit !
Is there anybody to exchange his experiences ...
Thanks in advance !

The Oracle Solaris Studio 12.4 will officially support Oracle Linux 5,6 when it releases later this year.
Since Oracle Linux is based on RHEL, Oracle Solaris Studio should work on RHEL.
Support customers may report issues against RHEL and the Oracle Solaris Studio team will do its best to address these issues but fixes are not guaranteed.
Oracle Solaris Studio components such as compilers and command line tools do not require Java. If you install the product using the Oracle Solaris Studio Installer in non-interactive mode you can install the Solaris Studio product without having Java on your system though the installer will issue a warning message if Java is not found on the system. Alternately you can install the product using the tar file distribution if Java is not installed. If you install via the tar file, it is not possible to install patches later.

Development environment model

Hi All,
As the WebLogic server is not cheap (!), we were wondering what model you
used in your development environments? Obviously, it would be very
expensive for each developer to have their own copy installed on their local
machine, but how do you manage multiple developers working on the same
application with the same server on a central machine, possibly modifying
the same beans or beans used by others, and deploying them to the same
server? Also, problems could occur if a problem is introduced into a bean
used by others. Does anyone have a tried and true method for managing this
and keeping multiple developers from interfering with the work of others?
Thanks!!!
Elaine

I do not think you are going to find a solution to the problems presented by
parallel development of a project. That is simply just a fact of life I
think. But I think that there are things that you can do to mitigate
interference.
In our development environment, we have a central repository that keeps all
of the code. There are multiple source lines. Developers map the source
lines to their machines. For example, your commerce application might have
a production line and a development line. You would make bug fixes for your
production code in the production line while you made advanced development
changes in the other line. A release team would bundle of the development
line and make "releases" of the product/site.
As for development environments, each developer should be able to have a
copy of the developer seat for WebLogic on their box. In our situation,
developers synchronize against the code line regularly. This provides the
benefit of using a stable code line but also synchronizing up against others
changes on a regular basis.
Some other application server vendors have tried a different technique for
development environments. One of those is requiring that you have a central
"test server" that is shared by all of the developers instead of
environments for each developer. In theory, the sounds good. But in
practice, it can be a real nightmare.
I hope that this helps.
Thanks,
Michael

Development Environment

I need to build a multi-tier java web application (JSP, Serlvets, EJB, JDBC, Oracle), but I've been away from Java for some time. I believe I should deploy onto the J2EE server, but I'm confused as to which development environment I should be using.
Do I need J2EE SDK 1.3.1? Or Sun ONE Studio 5? Or both?
Also should I seperately install Apache, Tomcat, and mod_jserv on my development machine?
Thanks,
Todd

You will want the basic java environment for development. That would be the JSE1.4.2 (latest) ...but is it still not recommended to stick with 1.3.1_07 for mass public consumption ? Not to sure, but the point is ...you need the standard 'Java Install'. J2EE SDK 1.3.1 is an additional package you will need, yes ...for all the extra enterprise classes required by your particular endeavor.
You won't need Apache or mod_jserv ...because you say you want EJB's. Tomcat and Apache standard stuff will run Servlets and JSP's ...but aren't a full blown application server ...and it is sounding like that's what you want. Be sure of what you want though ...EJB is a steep learning curve ...like straight up. As a solution they can even be the 'wrong thing to use' entirely and deciding if that's really what you need can require at least a certain degree of expertise to determine.
However, if you really want an application server for EJB deployment ...that entirely depends on how much money you have to spend. Weblogic, Websphere are a couple of the $$$ names. But (ding) JBOSS is my favorite choice ...its free and actually the number two choice in the market right now ...go figure. It has a version that comes integrated with Apache Tomcat ...and is a powerful little beastie for sure. You want to steer clear of the J2ee server reference implementation Sun offers. Its just that ...a reference. It won't take you far and can't be used for production (i.e. can't serve remotely). So you might as well get right into the real thing since the subtle gotcha's are only going to set you back unless you get the real thing.
You can get an IDE if you like ...but the command line works nicely too in all reality. Search IDE on these forums, along with APPLICATION SERVER and I am sure you will come up with a ton of links to various vendors.
First off ...go get the JSE1.[whatever] and the J2EE 1.3.1 and get those up and running. After that you will be ready to set up your application server ...Rome wasn't built in a night. I admire your confidence. Need a consultant? Just kidding ...no I'm not ...yes I am.
Good luck.

Development environment for 10g R2

Guys,
I need to setup a development environment for oracle 10g r2 forms development. I am a new to oracle and due to downsizing we lost our DBAs so I am on my own and need your huge support.........
Current settings: Oracle on the server: Oracle 10g R2
My local client installation: 10.1.0.4.2
Downloaded oracle developer suite from oracle: Oracle Forms: 10.1.2.0.2 (Developer suite 10.1.2.0.2)
* Is this a correct development environment? or any incompatibility do you see with this? *
Secondly, I heard various stuff about development environment and would like your input as well:
* Can I develop forms application from my own desktop, running OC4j from my local machine (came with developer suite) to run and develop forms? or do i have to develop on the server where oracle is installed? *
* Does our oracle server needs any application server (weblogic) installed or just OC4j can work on the server to run forms production? *
Please help me to resolve my confusion so I can present the development environment to my management.....
Thank you soo much...

Downloaded oracle developer suite from oracle: Oracle Forms: 10.1.2.0.2 (Developer suite 10.1.2.0.2)
* Is this a correct development environment? or any incompatibility do you see with this? *If you want to go with Forms 10G, i would apply the latest patch set (i think its 10.1.2.3, but would suggest to consult Metalink for that)
* Can I develop forms application from my own desktop, running OC4j from my local machine (came with developer suite) to run and develop forms? or do i have to develop on the server >where oracle is installed? *Yes, you can develop "locally" on your PC using only OC4J, but for integrationtests it might be useful to have an "test"-OAS (Oracle Application server 10.1.2)
* Does our oracle server needs any application server (weblogic) installed or just OC4j can work on the server to run forms production? *For running 10G forms in production you will need an OAS (Oracle Application server 10.1.2), not a WebLogic-server.
As an alternative to 10G, you could also start directly using Forms11G, which is the latest release. In this case you need a WebLogic-Server 11-installation both for development as also for production.

Preferred Development Environment

We are deciding on how to set up our development environment for a J2EE EJB project
using WLS and JBuilder. Total developers will be around 12 or more. If we have to
buy "developer's" licenses for everyone it would be a lot of money.
The "developer's" license allows 3 client connections and 4 JDBC connections. Does
this mean that 3 developer's could share an App server running on one machine? Is
this practical or should/must it be one developer license per developer?
The "basic" configuration allows unlimited connections. Has anyone tried developing
with a group as large as this and just using one App server? Would we run into problems
with developers needing to restart the App server often? Can you legally run multiple
copies of the App server on one server (different ports) and support multiple developers
that way.
We currently have NT boxes with 256MB of memory. Any recommendations on memory?
If anyone has any suggestions on what works best or what doesn't work, or what you
have found to work I am very interested to hear your recommendations and experiences.
If this is the wrong forum please recommend one for me. Thanks in advance.

Look into the Weblogic partner programs. If you qualify, it is the best way
to get a set of developer licenses.

Larry,
no, you cannot change the way the APEX Application Builder authenticates its users.

Kindly help me to resolve this error

Hello,
First, JDK 1.7 is not certified with Forms 11gR2. Only JDK 1.6 familly is certified and supported.
It seems to be an environment/installation issue as this installation works fine.
- Are you installing as Admin user and running Builder as the with the same OS user?
- Let me know the WLS 10.3.6 complete zip file name you installed and the command you used to install it. Also the 11.1.2 file names for review
As a workaround:
You can open rwrun.jar in Jdeveloper and check the classpath in the manifest.
I remembered i had an issue on this(11.1.1.3 version) when rwrun.jar called a jar file javax.jsp_1.1.0.0_2-1.jar that did not exist in the installaton(There was a newer version like javax.jsp_1.2.0.0_2-1.jar in the installation).
Normally should not be happening in 11gR2, but give it a try.
Regards,
Alex

Typical Development Environment

Hi, This might be slightly off topic, but since this list is littered
with former NetDynamics programmers, I thought I would ask for
feedback. Our ND development environment consists of an NT server
with a CP service for each developer. They then run studio locally,
mapping to their individual project area on the development server.
What are the options with iPlanet & JATO? Am I back to having each
developer with a webserver/appserver/projects on their machine, or
can I set up something a little more like what I have now? Also, any
gotchas moving apps between NT and Solaris? Should I budget a Sun
development server, or can it be on NT? Are most people using Forte
in place of the ND Studio?
I am in communication with Sun/iPlanet reps, just wanted to get some
developers feedback.
Thanks,
John Hoskins

I do not know what anyone else does, but I have production, test, and development environments. I am using Oracle Portal.
The test environment uses the production OID and db, but separate WebCache, SSO, and Portal/BI mid-tier. The reason the test is separate from production is to be able to test performance. If the test instance was on the production server, it would be challenging to gauge performance on the test environment. The test environment is also my cold fail over.
The reason I have a separate development environment is because I have several Portal developers, so we have a common environment to work on. Each developer has a local instance, or least a local Oracle database, to work on, mostly research, proof of concept, and prototyping.
My production environment is 3 tiers, 5 servers. My test environment is 3 tiers, 3 servers. My development environment is 1 tier, 1 server.
Having 3 environments is very expensive - 9 servers with 2 CPUs each. HW leases and license costs are high.
