What is the best way to deploy Web Dynrpo DC without NWDI?

Hi, SDN Fellow.
We are currently developed our WDP DC without using NWDI (we are just creating local DC of the Web Dynpro project.)
Now, we need to send our deployment archive to the sys. admin team to transport them to Dev from Sandbox.
I just wonder should I just deploy the ear file that located in the .../dc_name/gen/default/deploy/xxx.ear by using SDM? Or there is a more proper way for us to deploy our WDP DC works?
I know that I can just set up the J2EE engine of the Dev / QA box and deploy them, but it doesn't seems like the right procedure to do so.
Please suggest, thanks.
Thanks.
Kent

Hi, Maksim
> >>but it doesn't seems like the right procedure to do

What I means it does not make sense is deployment through NWDS.
System admin usually will not install a NWDS to deploy the ear, but they will use SDM to deploy the ear files.
I just need to verify there is the best practice to do so.
Thanks for your answer.

What is the best way to deploy/update custom security realm classes to WLS 6.0?

From the WLS 6.0 console, I see that I can specify the Java class that
implements my custom security realm but I am wondering what is the best way
to deploy/update this code. I don't see a way to do this from the console.
Does this mean that I have to manually copy the class files over that
implement my custom security realm?

Thanks Danut,
A jar file seems to be a good way to package it up but it sounds like it
still needs to be manually copied to each Weblogic server install directory
post-installation and whenever it is updated. I thought it would be nice to
be able to deploy/update the custom security realm by uploading it through
the Console just as you can with web applications and EJBs.

You have to have your Custom Realm class in the class path. I usually havea
jar file with all the Custom Realm classes and that jar I copy it in thelib
folder. Then I modify "startWebLogic.cmd" and I add to the classpath
".\lib\CustomRealm.jar"

In the page I simply referenced the facescontext directly... no need for a custom servlet.
public void createcookie() {
FacesContext fc = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
HttpServletResponse resp = (HttpServletResponse)fc.getExternalContext().getResponse();
Cookie userCookie = new Cookie("cookiename", "cookievalue");
userCookie.setMaxAge(-1);
userCookie.setMaxAge(3600);
resp.addCookie(userCookie);
return null;
public String readcookie() {
FacesContext fc = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
ExternalContext ec = fc.getExternalContext();
Map cookiemap = ec.getRequestCookieMap();
if (cookiemap != null) {
Cookie cookie = (Cookie) cookiemap.get("cookievalue");
return cookievalue;
For reference I could not get getCookies() method of HttpServletRequest to work.. it would only return JSESSIONID.

What is the best way to open emails and attachments without using wifi?

For I-phone and I-pad, what is the best way to open emails and attachments without using wifi? I turned off wifi in my settings but my boss thinks there may be another way and a better way to use something else instead of wifi. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you!

Thanks! That is a very good question you post. My boss asked me that and I am assuming that he is having issues with using wifi wherever he is at. My boss is the kind of person that when he asks something you look into it and ask him no questions...he's the only one asking questions! But thank you for your response I will tell him the information you told me and hopefully that will help!

What is the best way to deploy application that uses web services?

Hi all,
I'm having some problems figuring out the best way to deploy our app now that we've switched over to using web services.
I'm fairly new to Java and web services. From what I understand, JNLP and WebStart are methods to deploy Java clients to users and not for creating war files and the like.
Here's a little background:
We have a large PowerBuilder/Oracle application. The db consists of over 500 tables and the client consists of several thousand PB components. A user creates "transactions" which contain a series of "sub-transactions" within. Most of the data is collected and stored locally in the client in a series of datastores. When the "finalize" happens, the records are validated and sent to the database.
We are in the process of moving each of the subtransactions (currently in the PB client) into subPROCESSES on a java project. We are using the JAX-WS framework to develop the web services in Netbeans. These web services aren't much more than remote xml as the messaging technology. For writing data back to the database, we are using the Java Persistence API to function outside of an EJB container but will shortly be migrating to the Glassfish application server to use several of the EJB container frameworks including the EntityManager.
We haven't attempted any type of deployment and are unsure of where to start. Any suggestions would be so helpful and appreciated!
Thanks!

It is for launching rich client GUI based (AWT, Swing, SWT..) applications onto the end-user's desktop.
There are some parts of JWS that might seem peripherally useful to the installation of a web-app., but it is really not a 'good fit'.

What's the best way for a web app to handle logins and sessions?

I'm deploying in JBoss, using JSF. As is often the case, I keep User information in an entity bean. My question is, what's the best way to handle this bean?
My inclination is to create a login page with a LoginBackingBean atached to it. When the user attempts to log in, it will see if there is a User entity bean that corresponds to the given name and password. If there is no User bean that matches, obviously we show an informative error screen.
But what happens if there is a valid user?
In the plain old Servlet world (without EJB / J2EE) I would just put the User object (it's an object, not an EJB) into the HttpSession, and I would create a Filter that would check for the presence of that User object, and I would map the filter to something like /members/*, and that would be it. I would use Hibernate to persist the User object, and there would also be a filter that creates a Hibernate session and stores it in the Request so that the User object would work and persist.
How do I do this within the J2EE / EJB world?
My first thought would be to just do the same thing. Install the User bean into the HttpSession, and create a filter and do all the same stuff. Is that the right way to do it? It would work pretty well with JSF because I could just access things in the normal JSF way: #{user.firstName} would find the "user" object in the HttpSession scope. So that's good.
One question that comes up from that is if the user makes some change to the User object that is in the Session scope, will the EJB automatically do the right thing and make those changes persistent? Is there anything else I need to do?
I'm new to the EJB world, but from what I can see so far, it seems like it's the best way to think about a web application.
Thanks

hi ,
i think the best way is to create java beans ,in that bean call your EJB ,
and check the validation over there.
and make that bean scope to session.
in each and everypage try to check the session ,if it is not valid then forward to your login page...
otherwise continue to give access to him like guest

What's the best way for home sharing to iDevices without iTunes?

What's the best way for home sharing movies and tv shows on my iDevices? I know I can use home sharing through iTunes, but I'm looking for a way to share videos to my iDevices without having to leave my computer on. I have a MacPro, iPhone, iPad, Airport Extreme, and Airport Express (and several external hard drives). Can anyone suggest an app that would do this? Can I have videos on an external hd attached to an Airport Extreme/Express and have it stream without iTunes?

If your "server" is new enough to run Mountain Lion, you can purchase the OS X Server app from the Mac App store and you'll have everything you need to host a NetInstall (NetBoot) server.
If your machine does not support Mountain Lion, you'll need to purchase the appropriate Mac OS X Server software (i.e. Lion Server or Snow Leopard Server)
From there you can host NetInstall or NetRestore images, depending on your preferred workflow, which can be created using System Image Utility.
As Richard points out you can also use Deploy Studio which, again depending on your preferred workflow, might simplify things.

What is the best way to deploy an application ??

Hi,
Please advise me how to automate in a best way to Deploy 10 different applications(.ear/.war)
to 10 different Clusters(containing 40 Managed servers) in wls6.1......and that
too in a Production environment.
I know that we can use weblogic Console to deploy an application BUT if i have
2 unix boxes and each box contains 4-4 clusters(each containing 16-20 managed
servers) .....then i have to open up 2 Admin server consoles to deploy each of
the respective applications and that too deploying these application to 8 clusters.....OR
i can use deploy commad to do the same.
AND if i have like 100 clusters .....then i would have to "deploy" 100 times ......
is there any way that we can BEST AUTOMATE this process.
Thanks a lot.
-sangita

Thanks Tommy. but i would like to know a very important point here: this is using
the weblogic.utility that you just talkd about.
Suppose iam having an ADMIN server that has say 10 clusters and 50 managed servers
underneath to take care.
1 cluster each = 5 managed server
now iam deploying a simple .war file to say a single managed server, i have found
out that it takes a looot of time to get the application deployed.
what do you say about this situation ?
what is the best approach ??????

To deploy the application from the command prompt in WebLogic 6.1 you
use the
following command
$JAVA_HOME/bin/java -cp $WL_HOME/weblogic.jar weblogic.deploy -port $WEBLOGIC_PORT
-host $WL_HOST_IP $WEBLOGIC_CMD $WEBLOGIC_PWD -component $WL_Server_NAME:$WL_Server_NAME
$WL_APPLICATION_NAME YourApplication.war
$WEBLOGIC_CMD sould be DEPLOY for the first time deployment and UPDATE
for redeployment
For deploying in a cluster you better create a shell script which call
the above
command with different cluster ip address as a parameter.

do you see any advantages using [ANT + weblogic.deploy]..... over

quick question:

??If you're doing deployment via ant, then it's a bit more convenientto
use <wldeploy> rather than invoking a raw <java> process, but
fundamentally it's just a wrapper around weblogic.Deployer
3) i would certainly check to see weblogic.deploy for wls6.1
....can
i use ANT
for deployment purpose in wls6.1 ?You'll just need to wrap it in a <java> task

In WLS 6.1, you'll have to use weblogic.deploy which is a bit

What is the best way to import pictures from iPhoto without compression?

I'm trying to create a slide show using Final Cut Pro. No, I'm not interested in using iDVD slide show function because it doesn't allow me to do a whole lot. I would like to add titles and music for certain segments with video inserted here and there.
Anyway, when I used the slide show function in iPhoto, exported it out as a quick movie file, and then imported it into Final Cut Pro, I noticed a significant downgrade in quality of images. It obviously looks different from when I play the slide show in iPhoto. What would be the best way to import pictures into Final Cut Pro without any compression?
Thanks in advance.

I only see Share > Export.
Some versions of iPhoto work that way -it's just Apple moving things around.
what's the difference between exporting it from iPhoto then import it into FCP vs. just importing directly from FCP?
Your first post mentioned exporting a slide show from iPhoto -I assumed that is where your images are stored.
I do not want to import pictures one by one...
You don't have to. iPhoto will let you select as many as you want, or if the images are elsewhere, you can also select multiple files from FCP's Import dialog.
...and stick them together manually.
Editing is an art and involves some effort on your part. It is not an automated process. This method opens up far more possibilities, access to filters and color correction and the opportunity to use Motion for even more sophisticated animation.
But, it only allows me to export it as 720 x 480. The original size of my photos is 3872 x 2592. Is there any way I can create a quicktime file in the original size?
You should be aware that 3872 x 2592 is not a standard pixel aspect ratio that is used in video. The images will be resized to the Sequence settings that you set up in Final Cut Pro.
I have never used iPhoto to make a slideshow before, but I just gave it a try and was able to export one with the images in their native size, simply by typing the pixel dimensions into the boxes in the dialog window:
I don't have PhotoMagico myself, but it comes highly recommended by several of the forum regulars.
Perhaps one of them will see this discussion and help with your last question.

What is the best way of persisting Web-application related data?

My web-application needs to persist some data (a set of XML documents), i.e. save them so that they can survive server or application shutdowns. Saving those documents as files in server's filesystem does not seem to be convinient to me because the container may run the application directly form WAR and it is impossible (maybe I am wrong?) to modify files inside WAR archive. Forcing WAR extraction requires container reconfiguration and is container implementation dependent, which is not acceptable.
What would be ideal is some individual persistent storage bound to an application which does not require any external enitites (external databases etc). And this storage should not depend on any particular implementation of servlet container.
So is there a way to do something like this?

Saving it to disk seems like your only alternative.
Presuming you have at least some control over the machine where it is deployed to, you could specify a directory to save the xml documents to (ie not one under your web application structure) This would get around the limitations of the WAR file not being extracted.
Make the directory an environment variable/init parameter in your web.xml file.
All you need then is a directory on the server that you have write permissions to.
Ok it requires more setup when deploying the web application, but I thinks its about the only way to accomplish what you want to do.

What is the best way to deploy an applet using iWeb

I have an applet with a very standard applet tag.
I don't see any way to deploy that directly.
So instead, I just create an html snippet widget, and paste in the applet tag.
Very simple standard stuff
<applet codebase="xx" code="xx.class" etc>
<parameter ...>
<parameter ...>
etc
</applet>
iWeb has not seen my applet yet, so it is just a bunch of html code.
The problem is that it is hanging forever.
Apparently it is throwing some kind of exception.
Give it a try and you will see.
Whatever shall I do to get my applet deployed?

What is the best way to deploy Lion over network

Ok... so I've created a boot disk using the image I downloaded from the app store.. (the one inside the application)
and created a netinstall image using package maker and siu. I transfer that image to the deployment folder om the server... and all seems to be working
fine on the client side... except that right before installation I get an error saying the image is missing a component... Server...
Does anyone know why I would get an error saying im missing the Server in my image when I'm not trying to install the server?
Should I try creating a new boot disk and image in siu?
Oh... and im burning the image to a disk... and using that as my source in siu... if that helps.
Thanks for any help
