WLCS & WLPS 3.1 + AIX 4.3.3

Hi everyone!
I need some advice: is it posible to install WebLogic Server 5.1 and WebLogic Personalisation and Commerce Server 3.1 on AIX 4.3.3 with Oracle 8.1 as DB?
What kind of problems can I have?
Thanks in advance
Manuel Jambrina

If the backend exchange server is not changing, you dont need to move voicemails.
Or is this a VM only implementation and not UM?

WLPS/WLCS 2.0.1: Performance tip

Performace tip for WLCS 2.0.1 [User.getProperty() vs
CachedProfileBean.getProperty()]:
JSP programmers should take advantage of speedy user property
retrieval from the local cache by using the "useCache=true"
attribute with the JSP tags <um:getproperty> and <um:setproperty>
(http://e-docs.bea.com/wlcs/p13ndev/jsptags.htm#1058056 ).
If you are getting and setting user properties in a servlet then
you should prefer the methods of
com.beasys.commerce.user.jsp.beans.CachedProfileBean over
com.beasys.commerce.axiom.contact.User so that you can take
advantage of caching. Even on the first invocation of
CachedProfileBean.getProperty() it is significantly faster than
User.getProperty(). Subsequent invocations of
CachedProfileBean.getProperty() are orders of magnitude faster. The
CachedProfileBean is what the JSP tags use.
A separate CachedProfileBean is instantiated for each user whose
profile is to be manipulated. See the attached javadoc for the
details of instantiating a CachedProfileBean for a
com.beasys.commerce.axiom.contact.User versus a Unified User Profile
(UUP) user of your own creation. If you want to use the
CachedProfileBean in a clustered environment then you need to keep
an instance in each user's session to make it cluster-aware. For
example, if you want to set a user property then you should retrieve
the CachedProfileBean from the user's HttpSession, use
setProperty(), and return the CachedProfileBean to the session. Of
course, when you get a property you should retrieve the
CachedProfileBean from the user's session instead of instantiating a
new one.
If you use the CachedProfileBean in a t3 client or in a servlet
deployed on a server that is not WLCS/WLPS then you will have to set
the environment property "commerce.properties" to
"weblogiccommerce.properties". The CachedProfileBean needs
weblogiccommerce.properties to figure out where to do JNDI lookups.
You can set this property on the command line when you start your t3
client (or server) like this:
java -Dcommerce.properties=weblogiccommerce.properties MyT3Client
The CachedProfileBean was not javadoc'ed for the WLCS 2.0.1
release. It was javadoc'ed for the WLCS 3.1.1 release, but changes
were made between releases. The javadoc for the WLCS 2.0.1 release
is attached.
Thank you for using WebLogic.

[WLCS201_CachedProfileBean_javadoc.zip]

Here's a follow-up related to User.setProperty( ) vs.
CachedProfileBean.setProperty( ).
To reiterate what Ture stated, CachedProfileBean is preferred over User
because property values can be retrieved from the local cache. However,
when setting properties, CachedProfileBean can be slower if you're doing a
number of set statements in a row. Here's why.
User is an entity bean. The CachedProfileBean lives in the session; it's
purpose is to avoid using the User entity bean unless it has to (since
entity beans generally mean poor performance).
As the number of references to an entity bean grows, the risk of deadlock
increases. For this reason, the CachedProfileBean doesn't have a reference
to the user entity bean. The setProperty method of CachedProfileBean needs
to first get a reference to the entity bean, then update the property. This
is what can make it slower than User.setProperty( ). If the setInCache
parameter is true, it will also set the value in the cache.
We advise against using the User.setProperty( ) method, especially for
highly shared entity beans, since deadlocks may occur. For example, avoid
using User to set a property for a user that has a Group specified as a
successor; Groups are highly shared entity beans, increasing the chance of
deadlock.
You generally should not mix User.setProperty( ) and
CachedProfileBean.getProperty( ). Since User.setProperty( ) updates the
database but not the cache, you may be left with a dirty cache.
Our best advice is to stick with CachedProfileBean, but wrap all your set
statements in a transaction (e.g., javax.transaction.UserTransaction).
There are two benefits of this. First, all the sets will succeed or fail as
a unit. Second, you'll see a performance gain since you're saving on
database connections. If you have a large number of set statements in a
row, you will see a significant performance increase if you wrap them in a
transaction, since you're only using one database connection rather than one
per set statement.

Hi John,
Might be a configuration error. Could you tell me which version, including
service-pack level, of WLCS/WLPS and WLS that you are running? sp2 for WLCS
3.5 removes console.war from your WLCS installation. That is because WLCS 3.5
sp2 is the port from WLS 6.0 to WLS 6.1. In WLS 6.1, there is no console
application because it became internal.

Accessing user attributes from a pipeline component

Hello,
I'm using WLCS & WLPS 3.1. I use webflow and I have implemented the page
transition myself to work with the portal. Everything is working fine.
I'm planning to implement a complex step of a business process as a pipeline
component. For various reasons, this PC will be implemented as an EJB. To
perform its job, this PC needs to get information about the user that is
currently logged in. More specifically, it needs to lookup custom attributes
from the user profile (i.e. user property set).
So my question is : is this possible directly from the PC, or do I have to
populate the pipeline session with required information in the input
processor?
Thank you for your advice
Nicolas

Hello Ture,
Thanks for both posts.

I have not tried this myself. I think that the disconnect between the
pipeline session and the portal session is probably the fact that theattributes
in the portal session have their keys "fixed up" by prepending the portal
request URI. This is made possible by the
com.beasys.commerce.foundation.flow.jsp.DefaultDestinationDeterminer,which the
PortalDestinationDeterminer extends. It puts a "TRAFFIC.URI" attributeinto the
each request that goes through the FlowManagerServlet for the portal. Inthe
Acme exampleportal, the "SERVICEMANAGER.USER" attribute is put into theportal
HttpSession as "exampleportal.SERVICEMANAGER.USER".
If you want to get to the cached profile from your portal from yourpipeline
component (PC) then you would have to know that the name is "fixed up" tobe
"exampleportal.CACHED_PROFILE". There are probably several different waysyou
could get the "TRAFFIC.URI" information to your PC.

Is there a command cheatsheet for personalization server?

Hello,
I am having trouble understanding how different commands work to forward a
page. Is there a simple cheat sheet that explains when to use different
commands? Here are some examples:
How do I forward control to a standalone JSP page? Currently from
portal.jsp, I use <jsp:forward page="somepage.jsp"/> Is this the best way
from portal.jsp. What about from other pages?
How do I get back to the main jsp page. In the somepage.jsp I have tried
the following:
<%
response.sendRedirect(response.encodeURL("/TestProduct/application/TestProdu
ct")); %>
<jsp:forward page="<%=createURL(request, getHomePage(request), null)%>">
<jsp:forward page="<%=createURL(request,
response.encodeURL(getTrafficURI(request)), null)%>">
<jsp:forward page="<%=createURL(request, 'portal.jsp', null)%>">
<jsp:forward page="<%=createURL(request, getHomePage(request), null)%>">
<jsp:forward page="<%=getTrafficURINoContext(request)%>">
Sometimes one of them works, other times they don't. I still don't get the
difference between these. Yes, I have looked at the JavaDocs, but I still
don't get it. I am hoping that there is someone out there that has been
through these leaning pains that can help out with this!
I have one situation where I am at a standalone jsp page in the portals
directory. Depending on which button the user selects, I either want to
redirect back to the main portal page, or back to a login screen by logging
the user out (I require a login on all pages except the login page). Going
to the main page required using the sendRedirect. None of the jsp:forward
commands would work. I still havent been able to figure out how to log a
person out. I was trying to use jsp:forward back to portal.jsp with a
jsp:param of headerAction="signout", but that didn't work either.
Am I making this harder than it should be?
Thanks for any help any one can offer.

Hi Kenneth,
I assume you are talking about WLCS/WLPS 3.5. You will want to check out
Webflow http://edocs.bea.com/wlcs/docs35/wflopipe/index.htm , which is included
with WLCS 3.5, but only if you have the Commerce Server license. The
Webflow/Pipeline framework has been popular and it is included with the basic
WLPS 4.0 license in the newest release and will enable you to manage your
application navigation without changing your initial JSP code.
That said, it looks like you are talking about navigation without using
Webflow, so I'll address that. I would not recommend simply doing a JSP forward
out to a standalone .jsp page from your WLPS application because you will lose
track of your WLPS/WLCS session attributes that were set with
JspBase.setSessionValue(), JspBase.setLoggedIn(), etc. You should navigate by
passing requests through the FlowManager servlet, which will put an attribute
into the request, containing a String representing your web application's
context. This is used as a namespace for session attributes so that you can
have things like "exampleportal.SERVICEMANAGER.LOGGED.IN" and
"testportal.SERVICEMANAGER.LOGGED.IN" session attributes that are independent.
In other words, if you do a jsp:forward to a JSP page without going through the
FlowManager then the special key won't be present in the request, and then
JspBase.getLoggedIn() will always be false because JspBase.getLoggedIn() will
look for an attribute with a null component to the key like
"(null)SERVICEMANAGER.LOGGED.IN" and won't find it because it was set with
something like "myapplication.SERVICEMANAGER.LOGGED.IN" when you were in your
main application (which was accessed through the FlowManager servlet, which set
the special key in the request).
Look at
<wlcs3.5-install-dir>/config/wlcsDomain/applications/wlcsApp/exampleportal/portals/repository/_userreg.jsp:
<%
setOverrideDestination(request, JSP_USER_REG_SUMMARY);
setLoggedIn(request, response, true);
%>
<jsp:forward page="<%=getTrafficURINoContext(request)%>"/>
This setOverrideDestination() call sets a request parameter that the FlowManager
servlet uses to forward to the real destination (after putting a "key" into the
request that will be used by all subsequent JspBase.getSessionValue() ,
getLoggedIn(), etc. calls). Then the jsp:forward is done to the FlowManager
servlet.
Another common way to go through the FlowManager to another JSP page is through
the use of an HTML form. To do this, look at the example in
<wlcs3.5-install-dir>/config/wlcsDomain/applications/wlcsApp/exampleportal/portals/repository/loginSuccess.jsp.
Look at the hidden input in the HTML form:
<input type=hidden name="<%=DESTINATION_TAG%>" value="<%=getRequestURI(request)%>">
and the action:
<form method="post" action="<%=response.encodeURL(getTrafficURI(request))%>" name="UserLoginForm">
The hidden input sets a request parameter that says, "the real destination is
getRequestURI(), which is this page, so submit the form back to this .jsp
page". The action says, "submit the request to the FlowManger servlet that is
registered with this application in the Application Init property set ( search
for application_init and 'application init' in the docs, for instance:
http://e-docs.bea.com/wlcs/docs35///////portal/portldev.htm#1042719 ) The
FlowManager servlet forwards the request to the destination set with the hidden
parameter (or with JspBase.setOverrideDestination, or with a request parameter
in the query string like "dest=/mystuff/index.jsp".
Note that the FlowManager implements a security feature that will not allow you
to go through the FlowManager servlet to a resource that is not in your
applications workingdirectory, as specified in the application init property
set.
It is a long story. I would recommend that you use exampleportal to create a
few simple test portlets that practice these techniques. You should also create
a portlet that iterates through all session attributes and request attributes
and parameters so that you can see what I am talking about with the "key" used
to fix up WLPS session keys.
After you practice a little bit, you can contact support with a specific
navigation problem and they can help you solve it: (

WL commerce server 3.2 installation

Hi,
I am using WebGaing Studio 4.1, meaning that I have WL 5.1.0 SP7, on an
NT4SP4 workstation.
Following the readme, I have downgraded my WL installation to WL5.1.0SP6. As
well, I have installed Sun HotSpot server VM.
However, when trying to install the soft, I only have the installanywhere
screen, which stops without raising an error. But I don't have anything
else, even the red splash screen.
The only remaining difference being in the NT service pack (SP5
recommended), is it the issue or did i missed something?
Thanks

Hi Doina,
WLCS/WLPS 3.2 requires a minimum of 128 MB of RAM; more is recommended.
You're running with less than the minimum requirement, which will make it
very slow.
Also, when you first run one of the sample applications the JSPs will need
to be compiled. This causes the first invocation of each page to be slow.

We were using WLCS 3.2 and WLS 5.1 SP8 so far, we got a patch
(patch_CR043462) from BEA in response to some bugs we reported ( BEA Support
Case: 222714). This patch had some new classes (e.g.
CommerceInputProcessorExtended, PipelineSessionExtended) and to use them we
changed the code. The site is live now. I'm now trying to find the
effort/feasibility of migrating to WLS 6 and WLCS3.5. But during the
migration I found that the above patch is not shipped with WLCS 3.5. So my
question is, can we use the old patch given to us with WLCS 3.5 or shouldn't
it be part of the new WLCS 3.5 release ? What BEA suggests about this.

Hi Deepak,
I don't think there is any agent for AIX. I remember we had the similar problem. Our customer's Web-App was on unsupported App server container.
We installed a Sun Java Web Proxy Server 4.0 and agent in front of the app server.

Wlcs 3.5 vs wlcs in portal suit 4.0

Hi All,
I need the following information urgently:
1. What is the version of weblogic commerce server in portal suit ? Is the commerce
server given with portal server is same as weblogic commerce server 3.5 sp2 ? If
not, how is it different from wlcs 3.5 sp2 ?

Sudarson,
The commerce components in WLP 4.0 are pretty much the
same as in WLCS 3.5 SP2 except for the following:
1) Tax and payment services have been converted to Web Services.
2) The commerce templates were updated to use the new Webflow
and Pipeline architecture.
3) WLP 4.0 introduced a new deployment model more inline with
J2EE Enterprise App and Web Apps. As a result, some components
were updated to work with application management tools and
application-level scoping of resources.
Hope this helps,
Michel.

Wlcs 3.5 migration to portal 4.0 problem

Hello, can anybody help with this problem ?
We are migrating a WLCS3.5 application to portal 4.0 (as a requires middle step
to wlp7.0)
Despite some known issues with the migration tool, (the migraton tool craches
if
webflow properties has empty lines, etc.) we have webflow and placehloders migrated.
However we were not able to extract the content selectors,
and rulesets ( aprox 100 content selectors), the tool is crashing with sax errors.
Is there a way to convert clob fields in placeholder table
(only those corresponding to content selectors) to the xml files
required for wlp 4.0 ?
source platform: wlcs 3.5 sp1 / wls 6.0 sp2 / solaris / oracle 817
destination platform wlp 4.0 sp3/ wls 6.1 SP4 / solaris / oracle 817
Ihe error the migration tool gives is :
-------------- Start of Rules Migration ------------------

Thanks in advance.
M.
[error_content.txt]

it sounds like the clob isn't being retrieved correctly...??
in migrator.bat, what do you have set for this line:
REM set PATH=%PATH%;%WEBLOGIC_HOME%\bin\oci816_7
in your migration_install.properties file, what do you have for the following?
#commerce.jdbc.read.shouldUseClobs=false
depending on whether the driver can support java.sql.Clob, you'll adjust this
setting...
if you end up doing any code migration, you need to make sure that you have the
patch for CR085102 from bea portal support...it was not included in 4.0sp3 (but
should be in 4.0sp4)...
hope this helps!

Hello, can anybody help with this problem ?
We are migrating a WLCS3.5 application to portal 4.0 (as a requires middle
step
to wlp7.0)
Despite some known issues with the migration tool, (the migraton tool
craches
if
webflow properties has empty lines, etc.) we have webflow and placehloders
migrated.
However we were not able to extract the content selectors,
and rulesets ( aprox 100 content selectors), the tool is crashing with
sax errors.
Is there a way to convert clob fields in placeholder table
(only those corresponding to content selectors) to the xml files
required for wlp 4.0 ?
source platform: wlcs 3.5 sp1 / wls 6.0 sp2 / solaris / oracle 817
destination platform wlp 4.0 sp3/ wls 6.1 SP4 / solaris / oracle 817
Ihe error the migration tool gives is :
-------------- Start of Rules Migration ------------------

Error Loading WLCS - ?build compatibility?

Hi:
Just trying to run WLPS, which is sometimes talked about as a separate
product,
but it all seems to come together.
I get the following errors on WLCS startup (required to do anything with
WLPS).
I'm running WLS 5.1 SP 8, and the latest WLCS/PS (no service packs),
and just going with Cloudscape defaults.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Matt

Hi Matt,
Check to make sure that the WLS service packs are installed
correctly and the environment settings are okay. Were there
any other error messages above? Often EJBs won't deploy with
incompatible service packs.
Thanks,
Skip

WLPS and WebGain Studio

Good morning,
I would like to integrate WebGain Studio with WLPS for development purposes.
The current installation of WebGain Studio provides support for the standard
server.
Does any have any information that they can share on this topic.
Thanks in advance.

Michael,
Here is a copy of a message that I recieved on one of the WebGain
newsgroups, obviously there is a little bit of work required. I have yet to
actually try/confirm the attached solution.
included message follows:
It's working well for me,
I haven't gone too deep into Dreamweaver/WLCS work yet, but as for
VisualCafe/WLS here is what I did:
1) Edited StartCommerce script adding "echo" to the beginning of my
startup line. I then ran the script to get the command line I was using
to start WLCS.
2) Tried to start the commerce server using VisualCafe, and got the
command line it was using from the Messages window.
3) Compared the two startup lines to see what "-D" properties,
weblogic.class.path entries, and Java system classpath entries I was
missing in VisualCafe.
4) Added the missing items in Manage Deployment Target section of the
EJB setting in VisualCafe.
The items I ended up adding where:
Additional classpath Entries:
C:\Programs\Weblogic\lib\Weblogic510sp4boot.jar
Additional weblogic.class.path Entries:
D:\dev\packages\oracle\classes12.zip;C:\Programs\Weblogic\lib\Weblogic510sp4
.jar;C:\Programs\Weblogic\lib\Weblogic_RDBMS.jar;C:\Programs\Weblogic\lib\rm

ms\Weblogic\lib\axiom.jar;C:\Programs\Weblogic\lib\bridge.jar
Optional VM Arguments: -Dweblogic.system.name=server
-Dcommerce.properties=C:\Programs\Weblogic\weblogiccommerce.properties
Yours may be very different (in fact they most likely will be as I have
WLCS installed into the same directory as WLS, which is rather
unconventional). Debugging requires you to get ddservices, debugvm, and
Visual Cafe debug settings in order. On windows this is pretty
automatic I think.
Good Luck,
Ian

Hello all,
Currently what is the support for Weblogic Personalization Server (WLPS).
I have seen a couple of postings related to connecting WebGain to Commerce
Server. Has anyone had any success with connecting the IDE to the commerce
server. If so please share a quick cheat-sheet on how this isaccomplished.

It should work fine because the personalization server is simplycomponents

Architectural considerations on WLPS JSP tags

Hello,
I'm now looking at the WLPS (2.0) examples, more specifically to the
BuyBeans example.
I have experience in developping web applications using J2EE
(servlets-jsp-ejb).
Something in the bean example is very disturbing to me : I've always tried
to maintain a clear separation of concerns between the different blocks of
an application, namely business logic, control and view. Those of you
familiar with it will have recognized the MVC (model-view-controller)
paradigm.
And in the bean example, I see the JSP full of tags mixing the view and
controller roles, even some of business logic sometimes.
So my question is : is there a way of using the personalization/commerce
server while maintaining the separation of roles described above? And if so,
is it an efficient way of working or does it create too much overhead from a
development time point of view?
I hope I'm being clear enough. Please ask for clarifications if needed.
Thanks in advance for sharing your opinion on this subject

Nicolas,
I agree that the integration between PS and CS is not as tight as it could
be and we are working (hard!) on improving this right now. There are options
however, and a limted integration between the two is possible. The
DestinationDeterminers are pluggable so it should be possible to write
custom code to do both. As you say, this may not be an option on a tight
deadline if you need to deliver immediately.
Incidentally, the main reason we did not want to replicate the "old"
BuyBeans demo was that it contained a lot of code that was specific to the
BuyBeans site and look and feel. We wanted to create a "template" site that
was a much better starting point for users to customize.
I appreciate your comments, and I think you will be very pleasantly
surprised with coming releases which address things like graphical webflow
definition and move PS (and Portal) onto the Webflow model.
Sincerely,
Daniel Selman

Thank you Daniel,
I actually had a good look at the commerce server 3.1. You're right,
pipelines and
webflow are useful things, although the latter is a bit tricky since there
is no editor yet.
The big problem with version 3.1 is that the perso. server and thecommerce
server
are not compatible anymore. I guess that's why the buyBeans example isout,
and
the new commerce example (the catalog) is not a portal.
They are incompatible because with the PS, everything has to be sent tothe
Portal
Service Manager, and with the CS, everything has to be sent to the webflow
manager.
It might be possible to somehow combine them, but it's certainly not
straightforward
and we don't have time to play around in my actual project. I asked a BEA
instructor
about it but he had no solution.
Since the portal look&feel was a priority to us, wo we decided to drop the
CS, and
use only the PS.
Any comments on this subject ?

Nicolas,
MVC considerations were a big part of the rationale behind the Webflow
and
Pipeline architecture used in WLCS 3.1. I suggest you take a look at the
latest release, which does a much better job at handling this (complex)
topic.

Daniel Selman
