WL tries to deploy utility jar file in .ear as an EJB

I have an ear containing two ejb jars, one webapp war and a utility jar
(common.jar). Deploying to
WebLogic 6.1 sp2 results in deployment errors because WebLogic thinks
the common.jar in a
lib directory in the ear is an ejb jar:

Hi Srinivas,
There is no need to deploy MapBuilder in an Application Server. You can start it at the command line with for example:
java -jar mapbuilder.jar -noconnect

Hi.
Hmm. Is this happening to you with any other war file? It may be that this war file was somehow
corrupted. Try to get a fresh build of this war and deploy that.

How to access a jar file in EAR file?

I have a EAR file which contains EJB.jar file and util.jar file. Outside of EAR, I mean in client side, I need to reference util.jar file. How can I access it?
EAR structure is
|--+META-INF/
|--|---application.xml
|--|---manifest.mf
|--EJB.jar
|--|---+MEAT-INF/
|--|---|--- deployment descriptors...
|--|---|--- manifest.mf
|--|--- EJB classes
|--Util.jar
Util.jar must be executed in server side. If I just add Util.jar in client program's classpath, when client program is executed, serverside Util.jar is executed? Or what else I should do in the client program to reference server-side Util.jar?

Excellent question. I don't see any client-jar in your EAR file structure. So I am assuming you are writing a separate client application which will talk to the ejbs deployed as part of this EAR. You need to do the following:
Write another EAR file with the following structure:
ear:
META-INF/application.xml
util.jar
client.jar
client.jar should have a META-INF/MANIFEST.MF and that should contain Class-Path:util.jar and value for Main-Class attribute.
Now deploy this new ear to your application server and execute it using Application Client Container that comes with your app server.
If you don't want to write another EAR file, then bundle th client.jar in your original EAR file.
Points to note are:
you have to repackage util.jar again inside this ear file.
For portability reason, you should use Class-Path manifest entry in client.jar. Refer to http://java.sun.com/j2ee/verified/packaging.html and J2EE platform spec section #8.2.
Hope this helps,
Sahoo

Web page breaks when adding utility JARs to my EAR

Hi All,
I am creating a Web Application (.war) that runs some java code and has some JSP web pages to control the code/display results (as a dashboard sort of thing). I have then put this .war file in an enterprise app (.ear file - I have done this as there is other functionality that I want to roll in to the application).
I have been building this in Rational Software Architect and imported the required utility .jar files into the .war project, however when this is built the utility .jars are not included in the exported .ear file (the jsp dashboard pages still display correctly - it just means that the java code cant be run).
To ensure that the utility jar files are included in the exported .ear file I the added the utility jars in to the main .ear project and referenced them from the web app project - this compiles fine - however, when i then view the jsp pages they are now showing blank!
Any ideas as to what might be the problem or why my jsp pages are not showing up once I have added the dependent utility jars in to the ear file?
Thanks in advance guys!

Don't use layers, use tables. Outlook doesn't render with the
Internet Explorer engine (since Outlook 2007 at least). You also
can't use padding, background images, external CSS styles, and
dozens of other things. You also need to provide a full path to the
images in the newsletter.
In short, it's NOTHING like designing for a browser.
Here's a giant PDF that will make you cringe:

Here's a rough guide to HTML email:
http://www.webmonkey.com/tutorial/Send_HTML-Formatted_E-mail
Lastly, use a third party email service. If you send to more
than fifty people at once you stand a really good chance of getting
your domain blacklisted. Also, did you know that if you don't
provide a way for people to unsubscribe you're breaking the law? Or
if you don't show a physical street address you're in violation of
the law as well? Again, use a third party service so you're
protected against this crap. Also, they're cheap!

Deploying the SQLJ files used by the Rentals EJB

In a previous section of the documentation for acmevideo demo, we
address the issue of deployment of the Rentals EJB. This contains
the rentals.sqlj file.
Due to an issue with the current versio of Oracle 8i(8.1.5), a
workaround must be deployed to explicitly deploy the *.ser file
used by the Rentals EJB to the Oracle 8i database. (I don't know
or understand what the issue is - can someone explain ?)
Anyway, I am using Oracles suggested workaround and the
deployment fails.
Here is the text:
*** Invoking the Oracle JDeveloper deployment utility ***
Scanning project files...done
Generating classpath dependencies...done
Generating archive entries table...done
Writing archive...done
*** Invoking the Oracle8i deployment utility ***

<The dialog in JDeveloper displays>:

Any suggestions or tips how to get this working ?

Mark,
I had the same problem. Have you increased your Java_pool and
your shared pool? That and having the right classpath/path
helped. Also, I think that there are some SQL prep scripts that
need to be run.

How many Ways jar files from ear file on a jboss can be downloaded on clien

How many Ways jar files from ear file on a jboss can be downloaded on client side
like jnlp etc..

First, you need to be able to boot from the Recovery HD:
Boot Using Command+R keys:
1. Restart the computer.
2. Immediately after the chime press and hold down the
"COMMAND" and the "R" keys together.
3. Release the keys when the Utilities Menu appears.
Once at the Utilities Menu select Terminal from the Utilities menu in the screen's menubar. Now, you need to know where these new files are located. You move to any location using the 'cd' command such as cd /Users/user_name/Documents, then press RETURN. Replace user_name with your actual username. Next you need to do a directory listing to see if your files are in that location, Documents. Use ls -al to do a directory listing of the files and folders in Documents. If you find your new files there, then connect an external drive or flash drive. You will need to know the name you have assigned to this drive. It needs to be already formatted. Copy your files using cp /Documents/filename /Volumes/volname/filename. Replace volname and filename with those that apply. Press RETURN.
Or take it to your local Apple Store and see if they can do the chore for you.

Error deploying to .jar file

Hi everyone,
I am forms developer and as such i am a completly clueless as to how to do some basic things in this new tool i am trying to learn.
As a start, i am building some simple ADF/Swing applications, everything goes fine until i reach the point when i want to deploy my little proyect. Here's what i have been doing based on what help i could find in this forum. Thanks in advance and sorry for my poor english.
1) Create a deployment profile, i select all the dependencies using the "Dependency Analisis" option under file groups. Question: regarding the long list of dependencies shown in this section, is it necesary to include all the libraries listed? if i include everything the resulting jar file is 120Mb in size, and that is for a very simple form. Is this normal/correct.?
2) After the jar is deployed i try to run it with "java -jar xxx.jar" but i get the following exceptions: It seems to be related to the manifest file, and i find it very weird that, when i look in the jar file, there are TWO manifest.mf under the same META-INF folder, one is all uppercase and is quite small, the second is lowercase and quite large in size. I dont know if this is what's causing the problem and i cant find any other person that is having this same issue.

Hello Avrom
Thanks for the quick reply, in answer to your suggestion, in fact, as you recommended, excluding the manifest from the deployment profile solved "that" error but... (there's always a but, also, by excluding the manifest i had to include the classpath in the command line to indicate the "entry" point or main class), now i am receiving another error wich is completly unrelated (i think) to the previous one.
Thank you very much.
Fabian.

Deploying a jar file into J2EE server

Hello,
I need to deploy a few jar files I need in my jsp pages I deploy into EP 6. I'm using SAP Web AS 6.40. I tried to copy them into F:\usr\sap\DEP\JC00\j2ee\cluster\server1\apps\sap.com\irj\servlet_jsp\irj\root\WEB-INF\lib folder but after restarting J2EE server, I still have an error for each import I'm doing for the classes contained in my jar files.
I also tried to pu them in PORTALINF/lib folder of my project but it doesn't work.
Does anyone have an idea ?
Thank you !

Deploying Runnable JAR Files

I recently started working with Java 8. I have been doing Java development on and off since the early 1990's. Most recently I have been doing all my current work in Java 6. I decided to "take the plunge" and to start getting involved with Java 8. I have an imaging application for geologic research I started working on in Java 6 and Swing, and I am now continuing that development under Java 8. It was a pleasant surprise that to find that all of my code built without any changes (I'm using Eclipse Luna and just deleted the Java 6 runtime and added the Java 8 runtime after downloading it). The application launches fine from inside Eclipse.
However I ran into a problem when exporting the application from Eclipse to a runnable JAR file and then trying to launch it. After creating the runnable JAR I was not able to launch it by simply double clicking. A command line box would open for a second, then close and the application window would never open. To upgrade from Java 6 to Java 8 I only downloaded the Java 8 runtime environment, not the Java 8 JDK. I am working in Windows 7 and tried updating the JAR file associations and experimented with various path entries in my environment variables. No mater what I did I could not simply double click the runnable JAR to launch it.
Then I deleted all my Java downloads and started over. This time all I did was downloaded the Java 8 JDK and installed it. I then pointed Eclipse to the Java 8 runtime environment that was installed with the Java 8 JDK. My code built and executed perfectly in the Eclipse environment. Then I exported the the Eclipse project as a runnable JAR again and tried to launch it. This time it worked as expected. Double clicking the runnable JAR launched the application!
So my question is if I want to give this application to someone to run (i.e. deploy it) that is not a developer, do I have to have them install the Java 8 JDK? I assumed that all someone would need to run the application as a runnable JAR is the Java 8 runtime environment, not the JDK. However, when I had only the Java 8 runtime environment installed I could not launch the runnable JAR. With the Java 8 JDK I was able to run the runnable JAR as expected, with no problem.
Am I missing something?
Thanks,
Mike

We have a requirement where single BPEL code needs to be deployed in 2 domains.Inside teh domains , we are going to chnage the configuraion of JMS, Oracle Db etc .But the JNDI names will be same accross the 2 domains and in the BPEL process we used this common JNDI name.I careted a doamin (Let assume domain1) and deployed my application after configuring the JNDI names for JMS and DB.My application deployed successfully and worked as expected.Now, I craeted 2nd domain and tried to use the same JNDI name with diffrent Database configurations.But when I tried to update, it says JNDI name already exist.Could you please advice me if I need to modify anything in my doamin?
Also, when I tried to open my emanager with domain2 configurations, I can see the BPEL process which I deployed in domain1 .why is my 2nd domain showing the deployment under domain1 though I din't deployed anything in 2nd domain.
Thanks Much,
Madhuri

You want it in a WAR file, not a JAR file - i.e. a zip file just like a JAR file but with a .war extension and the following path structure:
./WEB-INF/classes
./WEB-INF/lib
./WEB-INF/web.xml
Where your JARs go in the lib directory, plain classes in their package structure under the classes directory and your JSPs, HTML etc anywhere you like other than WEB-INF.
Then you just put the WAR in Tomcat/webapps.

Deployment Utility - log file errors/warnings not clear

Hi,
I'm doing my first deployment and have few questions:
1) I tried to deploy ONLY the TS user directories. I checked the 'Deploy Files in TestStand User Directories' option and did not check 'Install TestStand Engine' since I deploy it into a system with TS3.0+CVI7.0 software(same as the source).
The process was successful by I get the following warnings in the log file.
Starting Log.

An installer is being created.
The installer is finished
The build process is done.

What does it mean? What to do about it?
2) The utility does not include the cfg/TypePalettes where I have a my own file.
Is there a reason to it? Do I need to include it manually?
3) When I included workspace in the utility I get the following errors:
Starting Log.

In order to eliminate the problem source I un-checked the files presented by the 'Analyze Source Files' until all of them are un-checked. Even in that case I get the error message.
What does the message mean?
What to do about it?
I don't use any LV in my system!!!!!
Thanks and my apology for the long message

Hi Rafi,
On #1 the warnings appear whenever you have an expression that specifies a sequence file because many expressions are not valid until runtime, you can ignore it as long as ALL sequences that expression may evaluate to are included in the Workspace.
>2) The utility does not include the cfg/TypePalettes where I have a my own file.
>Is there a reason to it? Do I need to include it manually?
No it does not include it because it is not needed unless you plan to edit on the deployed sequence (generally not recommended). If you add a custom type to a sequence the sequence file will have a copy of the type. You can include the types palettes manually in the workspace if desired.
>3) When I included workspace in the utility I get the following errors:
>What does the message mean?
The deployment utility thinks you have a VI to deploy, it is trying to load LabVIEW and failing because LabVIEW is not installed.
>What to do about it? I don't use any LV in my system!!!!!
Somewhere there is a .vi or .llb in the system. Find the VI(s) and uncheck them. I did find a bug that the deployment utility caches the flag indicating if a VI is present, but it is easily worked around: Save a tsd file, Press the New button and then reload the tsd.
