WL 9.2 - IIS plugin - WebLogic Realm

We are upgrading from WebLogic 8.1 to WebLogic 9.2. We use IIS 6.0 as a proxy. IIS has an ISAPI plugin that authenticates our users using SPENGO and then forwards the request to WL.
In 8.1, the request was authenticated by our ISAPI plugin, before the request was forwarded to our application running in WL.
In 9.2, logs show that the request gets authenticated by our ISAPI plugin, but when the request is forwarded to WL, WL sends back another authentication prompt to login to WebLogic. I am using the default WebLogic security realm without any changes.
HTTP header
WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="WebLogic Server"
If I access our application directly on WebLogic (bypassing IIS), I can access the application without being prompted to login by WL. The ear does not have any security configured in it. I believe having an authenticated header in the request to WL is causing the additional request. I would like to disable WL from asking to login to its security because we already have our security mechanism in place on IIS.
Is there a way to disable WL security?
Thanks.

In case anyone else gets this error, it is a known issue that WebLogic support provided the resolution.
In config.xml, I had to add the following tag before the end of the </security-configuration> section:
<enforce-valid-basic-auth-credentials>false</enforce-valid-basic-auth-credentials>
After this tag was added and the server restarted, WebLogic did not prompt to login to the WebLogic realm.

Installing and Configuring Microsoft IIS plugin for weblogic server

Hi guys,
I want to navigate from "a page in website hosted on IIS" to "a page in application hosted on weblogic". I found out that there is a plugin for Microsoft IIS that can proxy requests to weblogic server. The documentation of the plugin can be found on the following address:
Webserver plugin
I want to know about the configuration of machines. Can IIS and weblogic be on the same machine or different machines???? Where i have to install the plugin????
I am not able to find this in the above documentation.
My environment is:
1) Weblogic Server 10.3.5 installed on windows server 2012.
2) Forms and Reports 11gR2 are installed on this weblogic server
3) Apex Listener is also installed on the weblogic which communicates with a different db server.
4) I also want to install JDeveloper and ADF on the same weblogic server and call applications developed in ADF (like jsp page) from Microsoft IIS website.
Please help me and give me suggestions.

Weblogic and Websphere IIS plugin coexistence

Hi Folks,
I have a customer who is planning to migrate part of their webapps from websphere to weblogic, however they would like to share the same IIS webfarm for the existing appservers farms ... I wonder if anyone know how the appservers plugins will behave if I have both BEA ISSProxy and IBM WebSphere IIS plugin on the same server ... anyone can share experience on this? Is it even supported?
BTW ... Weblogic is 8.1SP4 and WebSphere is 5.1 ...
Thanks,
Juan Pablo Chen

Sure.. why wouldn't it be?
If you are using 1 IIS instance, which I am assuming you are, just make sure
you load the iisproxy.dll in high isolation.

POST problems with IIS Plugin

I am using the latest version of the IIS plugin for Weblogic (build: Apr 14 2002
17:53:13)
It seems that the ISAPI Filter (iisforward.dll) does not forward all http POSTs
- however it does seem to work fine for http GET's.
We have configured the plugin (you will see the attached debug dump) to forward
all calls on "/weblogic". If we perform http GET's on such a URL (using IE) everything
works fine - and the call is routed to Weblogic.
When we make a SOAP call using our C++ client, (a http POST) through the IIS plugin
we get a 405 error. If we artificially add the ".wlforward" extension on the context
URL (in our C++ client ) then it is forwarded correctly to weblogic by the Application
Extension (iisproxy.dll) - so the problem lies with the ISAPI filter. Also, if
we remove the ISAPI filter from IIS, we get the same 405 error - which confirms
that the ISAPI filter is not catching the POST's.
More puzzling, however, is that the SOAP requests from our Java SOAP client (using
WLS SOAP) works fine.
The problem must have something to do with the difference in structure of the
POSTS.
Normally, I would attach the logs/config in a zip file - but that seems broken
at the moment. Instead they are all pasted in below.....

Sadly, my IIS configuration is correct. The plugin seems to work fine if Ijust
use my browser (http GET) for either forward-by-extension (*.jsp) orforward-by-path
(/weblogic/*).
However, there seems to be a problem when I use SOAP (http POST). For somereason,
when I use my C++ SOAP client (using WASP), then the ISAPI filter (the onethat
generates the .wlforward on the URL) doesnt modify the URL - hence the403...
If I use my java client.... everything is fine. Comparing the two httppackets,
I dont see anything obviously wrong - but something is making the WLSplugin choke.

web app in IIS? I read the instructions thoroughly (or so I thought),
and I
wasn't able to get the POST to work. :< But as I reread the
instructions,
I

User Name and Password in weblogic realm while invoking a web service

Hi,
I deployed a rpc web service using WLS 7.0 SP2 in HP-UX 11 environment. When I
invoke the web service through my browser (IE 6.0) using the web services url,
it brings my service method correctly. From there, if I click the invoke button
it asks me for a network user name and password under "weblogic" realm??? If I
provide the admin user credentials (which I supplied while creating my domain)
it is not accepting that it keeps popping up this network user password window
over and over. Not sure which username/password I have to provide here to see
the result of my service.
If I try to invoke the web service through my client (static) I am getting a connection
refused exception. I guess either way, I am not able to access my web service.
In the attached file, I have cut and pasted the client stack trace as well as
the server log trace from weblogic.
Any ideas would be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ganesh
[errorstacktrace.txt]

I think the client is not able to do a HTTP POST
to the WLS server but it can do a HTTP GET.
I dont know why.

Everyone can create/remove a new user in the Weblogic Realm

Hi,
I just find any one can use Weblogic object create new/delete user in
the Weblogic realm.
// create
RealmManager rm =
Admin.getActiveDomain().getSecurity().getRealm().manager();
User user = rm.getUser(userName);
if (user == null)
user = rm.createUser(userName, password);
// delete
RealmManager rm =
Admin.getActiveDomain().getSecurity().getRealm().manager();
User user = rm.getUser(userName);
if (user != null)
rm.removeUser(user);
Looks like Weblogic has a security hole here? Shouldn't these object
only invokable to users belong to Administrators group?
Any comments? or there is known fix?

SSL and IIS Plugin possible ? How ?

Hi,
I wonder if it is possible to proxy both normal and SSL requests through the iis
plugin. We use WLCS 3.2 and everything except checkout should be proxied without
SSL, but checkout with SSL how can I configure (running in a cluster) the iis
proxy to handle this problem. When it is not possible what could you suggest in
a clustered scenario with the above mentioned cirumstances ?
Can I use the iisproxy and iisforward dlls from WLS 6 SP1 in WLS 5.1 ?
Thanks a lot in advance

IIS Plugin does not balance same amount of work on each WL instance ?

Hello,
          In an architecture with 2 WebLogic server 6.1 sp2 in a cluster and IIS as
          loadbalancer, I'm facing a strange behavior :
          On 200000 requests, 58000 are balanced to the first instance and 142000 to
          the second one ...
          I read in an old CR (CR028177) that as HttpClusterServlet was taking care of
          the amount of charge of servers before loadbalancing, the Plugins had to do
          that too.
          Could this explain the behavior of my architecture ?
          In this case, on which kind of "charge" is it based (CPU, memory ...)
          because in my case, the second instance (142000 requests) is supposed to be
          the most charged as Oracle is also on this machine.
          Thanks to let me know if you already experienced such a kind of behavior.


          Hi Olivier,
          Yes the plug-in (built as of Sep18/02) resolved the issue.

Urgent: Corrupted HTTP Headers when using IIS Plugin on WLS 6.0 SP2/NT 2000

Hi all
          I am using WLS 6.0SP2 and IIS ISAPI plugin. I am noticing some strange
          behavior
          when headers are passed back from WLS to PlugIn to Client
          The snippet below is the output on the client side.
          HTTP/1.1 200
          Server: Microsoft-IIS/5.0
          Date: Fri, 21 Dec 2001 00:29:10 GMT
          Date: Fri, 21 Dec 2001 00:29:06 GMT
          Server: WebLogic 6.0 Service Pack 2 05/24/2001 11:55:28 #117037
          Content-Length: 264
          Content-Type: text/xml
          <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
          <foo>
          data goes here.
          </foo>
          First Bug: The HTTP 1.1/200 header is missing the word 'OK'. We know for
          sure that the WLS 6.0 box is setting
          the correct header but the Plug In stripped it out.
          Second Bug: The Date: header is repeated by the Plugin. This is not
          allowed according to the HTTP spec
          since the Date: header value contains comma (ie. " , ").
          Third Bug: our client is making a HTTP request in HTTP 1.0, but both the
          plug in and WLS is responding with
          HTTP 1.1 ?
          Any else one running into these issues?
          Thanks;


I am finding the same issue with weblogic 6.1 sp3 with the iis 5 or 4. Does anyone know what the resolution to this is?
Your help is much appreciated.

Problems with IIS and Weblogic 6.0 Redirecting thru IIS

Hi
I have just installed Welblogic 6.0 and I am having problems with the configuration
of the ISAPI Plugin.
I created the iisproxy.ini file and then copied that into wlserver6.0/bin directory
and copied the iisproxy.dll file into the inetpub/wwroot directory for iis to
see
Now when I type in my url, I get the default index.jsp page that bea supplied
but when I try to go to the Admin tool, existing portals created or new portals
added, I get the following error
Error 404--Not Found
From RFC 2068 Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1:
10.4.5 404 Not Found
Can any one help, here is my iisproxy.ini file
below
#This file contains initialization name/value pairs

Seems 6.0 has more than a few proxy problems. We are running IPlanet and have
had no success in running the 6.0 proxy.
FYI. We have started using the 5.1 proxy in 6.0 successfully; you might give
it a try. Not sure we want to put this in production in this condition however.

deploying iisproxy.dll, iisforward.dll and iisproxy.ini. I have IIS 4.0 running
on NT 4.0 Server, and WebLogic 6.0 SP1 running on a seperate machine under Windows
2000.
I can proxy by file type no problem, it's proxying by path/proxying servlets that's
biting me.
I have followed the instructions at http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs60/adminguide/isapi.html#100367.
Here are the instructions and what I've done in response to them:
"1. Place the iisforward.dll file in the same directory as the iisproxy.dll file
and add the iisforward.dll file as a filter service in IIS"
I copied iisforward.dll and iisproxy.dll from my weblogic machine to C:\WINNT\system32\inetsrv
on the IIS machine.
I added iisforward.dll as a filter service in MS Management Console by choosing
properties > ISAPI FIlters tab > Add. Here I browsed to iisforward.dll and named
the filter WebLogic Filter Servlet (The name is not important, right?)
"2. Register .wlforward as a special file type to be handled by iisproxy.dll."
So, in MS Management Console I chose properties > home directory > Configuration
Add and browsed to iisproxy.dll and registered it with the file type .wlforward."3. Define the property WlForwardPath in iisproxy.ini. WlForwardPath defines the
path that is proxied to WebLogic Server."
So I added the following line to iisproxy.ini on the WebLogic machine AND on the
IIS machine:
WLForwardPath=/CIM2WebApplication
My web app is in exploded directory form at E:\bea\wlserver6.0sp1\config\terrance\applications\CIM2WebApplication
(where CIM2WebApplication is the root directory of the app in which WEB_INF and
my jsps and html files are located.)
In addition, in web.xml, I have defined a servlet as follows:
<servlet>
<servlet-name>register</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>net.companyname.cimsweb.RegisterUser</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>register</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/register</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
(Excuse all this the verbosity, but hopefully no-one will wonder what exactly
I did!)
When I use the following URL http://iiserverip/CIMS2WebApplication/register I
get a 404 from IIS (i.e. nothing at all is getting proxied to WL, not even a wrong
url)
OK, I've finished! If someone would like to catch their breath and help me out
I'd be extremely grateful! Thanks so much.

I think we honor both WLForwardPath and WlForwardPath in the latest 5.1 service
pack and 61 release.
thanks

I have had similar problems, there is an error in the documentation,
WlForwardPath
needs to be spelled with a lower case "l".

Hi,
I have a similar problem. (WLS sp8, win2k, IIS)
Proxy by path does not work. Proxy by extension works.
