WLDF Console Extension

I'm trying to view the pre-packaged JVM Runtim View from the GUI WLDF console in WLS 10 and while I can see the charts and verify that the time are updating, there is no data.
I am basically looking at empty charts with updating refresh times. Is there another step outside of those needed to enable the console, that need to take place before the charts begin to populate with data?

I have the same problem. i added the WLDF console extension But it doesn't seemed to be useful to me. Because it is very hard to analyze graph from it.

Appreciate your comments

Do you see any further nested exceptions OR errors in the log file.
Considering that the same WLS-JDK combination works on one machine and does not work on another machine, it indicates an environmental issue.
"However installed Web Logic 10.3.6 (64bit) and Java JDK 1.6.0_31 (64bit) on that same server. The web page cannot be displayed....

I am suspecting if it has to do anything with the native libraries being loaded JAVA_LIB_PATH.
Please review the server log file again for identifying differences in LIB_PATH or PATH or any messages saying "Unable to load native.. performance pack.."

Issue with WLDF Console extension displaying Instrumentation details

Hi,
I have enabled WLSDF Console extension on WLS9.1.
I am able to monitor weblogic metric data but when I enable instrumentation in my diagnostic module WLDF console displays server state as Unknown.
I am not able to monitor any metric data or request details after enabling instrumentation.
I have enabled DEBUG for diagnostic package and I can see diagnostic data getting collected in a server file store.But I am not able to see any details on WLDF dash board.
Has anyone experienced similar issue ?
Thanks & Regards,
Bhushan

Hi Bhushan,
Can you post your WLDF descriptor, and your config.xml? I'm not sure I can decipher what's going on based on the problem description.
Modifying or deploying a WLDF descriptor to a server should not affect the console extension behavior. Are there any error messages in the server log?
Are you actively graphing metrics in a DB configuration that are not displaying after this change?
Thanks,
Mike

Wldf console extension - strange problem

Hi
I've installed wldf console on my server (WLS 9.1). Applet runs in browser without errors, but i cannot see anything on charts (both axis X and Y are updated, but there are no data). If I run browser on server everything is OK.
???

What is the the platform the server is running on, and what browser you are using when the problem occurs?
Are there any exceptions in the Java console for the applet?

Where to find diagnostics-console-extension.jar(WLDF) file

Hi All,
I am doing Load balancing / fail over testing using DB RAC11g and weblogic 9.2MP3, so I would like to know how many requests are going to each node in the RAC data base. For this I would like configure the diagnostics-console-extension.jar to my weblogic server. I tried to download this jar file internet, but I didnot get it. Can anyone help me in getting this jar file.
I also see "diagnostics-agent.jar" file at WL_HOME/server/lib location, is this same as diagnostics-console-extension.jar file or this is different.
Help me in finding this jar file or some other alternative to achieve this requirement.
thanks
Venkat.

Yes In 9.x/10.x you can enable it from the Admin Console or copy the file from WL_HOME/wlserver/server/lib and copy this to DOMAIN_NAME/lib and bounce the Admin Server to see the Extension

In order to find the PerformanceMonitor web app, the ConsoleExt needs to
examine your classpath to get the appropriate WLHOME. It does this by
searching for .../server/lib/weblogic.jar. Please make sure your CLASSPATH
is correct and matches where PerformanceMonitor is installed. For example,
the path to .../server/lib/weblogic.jar is the same as to ../common/perf. In
my world, they both happen to be d:\bea\weblogic81.

I have been getting this (or earlier version) messages every time Firefox updates for at least a year "The Java Console extension is no longer supported and will be automatically removed the next time you restart Firefox. " What should I do?

For a long time, each time Firefox updates, it invites me to install theJava Console Update. then I get a message that Java Console not supported.

You can uninstall (remove) the Java Console extensions and disable the Java Quick Starter extension, you do not need them to run Java applets.
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Java#Multiple_Java_Console_extensions
Disable the Java Quick Starter extension (if you have it): Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions<br />

After receiving this message, the formatting buttons in the reply boxes of this SMF forum would not display.

Breadcrumb navigation in console extension not working

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to get the breadcrumb navigation working in my console-extension for wls 9.2.
Currently it is displayed like this:
Home > com.bea.console.handles.JMXHandle%28%22No+context+provided+for+Loggers%22%29 ("Loggers" is the definitonLabel of my netuix:page element).
As described on [url http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs92/console_ext/addcontrols.html#wp1078025]page 6-15 of the "Extending the Admin Console" guide I added the <netuix:meta name="breadcrumb-context" content="handle" /> element exactly as in [url http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs92/console_ext/addcontrols.html#wp1078078]listing 6-7.
Do you have any idea what goes wrong here or any pointers what I might be missing?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Btw. Is there a more appropriate place to post this question?

Chariot, unless someone decompiles that swf we cannot see
your code or how you constructed it. I did do that and took a look
but not everyone can do that. In the future, you can either post
the FLA or use the "Attach Code" button to show what you've done.
1.) first thing I noticed was that your HIT area on your
buttons is the text itself. If you make a rectangle on the HIT
frame only that is slightly larger than your text, you won't have
such jumpy behavior when mousing over or trying to find the "sweet
spot" that will actually click. You've made invisible buttons, I
see. It's the same concept. That way, you can get rid of the
invisible buttons altogether.
2.) Not sure why you have several layers on your buttons.
Looks like you have a layer per letter. They can all be on the same
layer. :)
3.) Try to put your button code on the main timeline instead
of on the buttons themselves. If you're curious why, read
this
article.
4.) You only need one arrow button... not a different one for
each section. Again, place the code on the main timeline and
specify at each keyframe what you want "leftArrow_btn" or
"rightArrow_btn" to do. I just made up those instance names but
they'll do whatever you tell them to do even if it's different than
what you told them to do before.
Other than that, I don't see what you are referring to.
There's a lot of cleaning up to be done. That will probably fix
some errors. I've posted an example of how it might work for you
here.

Trouble with console-extension using struts portlet

hello everyone,
I'm developing a console-extension for wls9.2 but couldn't get is to work despite all the documentation available. The console-ext is a struts portlet which gathers data from custom mbeans via jmx and renders the result with a jsp. What already works is fetching the data from the MBeans in the struts action. What does not work is the display of the results in the admin console. So I removed all the stuff from the jsp to just display "Hello World" which should be displayed on the desktop in the admin console, but even this didn't work (it's just a blank spot). Having a look at the log file I get the following:
e.netui.pageflow.internal.AdapterManager ERROR ServletContainerAdapter manager not initialized correctly.
e.netui.pageflow.internal.AdapterManager INFO No ServletContainerAdapter specified or discovered; using class org.apache.beehive.netui.pageflow.DefaultServletContainerAdapter

(...other debug output from my struts action...)

flow.scoping.internal.ScopedResponseImpl INFO ScopedResponse error 404:
.netui.pageflow.PageFlowRequestProcessor WARN Struts module is configured to use com.bea.console.internal.ConsolePageFlowRequestProcessor as the request processor, but the <controller> element does not contain a <set-property> for "controllerClass". Page Flow actions in this module may not be handled correctly.
.netui.pageflow.PageFlowRequestProcessor INFO Attempting to instantiate SharedFlowControllers for request /console/ChangeManagerAction.do
ive.netui.pageflow.FlowControllerFactory INFO No Global.app was found in /console
Despite the errors it seems to find my struts config (struts-auto-config-loggingController.xm) and execute the action, but then it seems to have trouble findingd/displaying the jsp (helloWorld.jsp). I tried to set various controller-elements in the struts config, like this ([url http://edocs.bea.com/wlp/docs92/portals/integrate.html#wp1005659]source):
<controller inputForward="true" processorClass="com.bea.struts.adapter.action.AdapterRequestProcessor" />
but this didn't work either (and results in other errors). The log from above was created with a config without any controller element (since this is never mentioned in the eDocs for console extensions).
Despite spending several hours trying to figure out what goes wrong here I wasn't able to get one step closer to a solution. Does anyone have a clue what I did wrong (please ask if you need further information)? Thanks a lot!
Btw. Sorry if this is the wrong forum, I could't find another one which matches better. Feel free to move the topic to a more appropriate place. thx.
====================================
Struts config:
<struts-config>
     <form-beans>
          <form-bean name="loggingForm" type="...web.forms.LoggingControllerForm" />
     </form-beans>
     <action-mappings>
          <action path="/LoggingControllerAction"
               type="...web.actions.LoggingControllerAction"
               name="loggingForm"
               scope="request"
               validate="false"
               input="/ext_jsp/helloWorld.jsp">
               <forward name="success" contextRelative="true"
                    path="/ext_jsp/helloWorld.jsp" />
          </action>
     </action-mappings>
</struts-config>

The problem could be solved by adding the "handle" property (of type com.bea.console.handles.Handle) to the form bean.
This is stated on page 7-4 in the "Extending the admin console" guide or [url http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs92/console_ext/simpleext.html#wp1083856]here
In addition the following controller element must be used in the struts config: <controller inputForward="true" processorClass="com.bea.struts.adapter.action.AdapterRequestProcessor" />
This is not mentioned anywhere and should definitely be added to the guide.
Hope this helps someone encountering the same problem.

Console Extension Custom View development

Hi,
I am trying to get started on developing a SCCM 2012 SP1 Console Extension (Custom View) for a removable media security solution.
My goal is to mimic the "Assets and Compliance"->"Endpoint Protection"->"Antimalware Policies".
I have created the XML so that a tree-node displays correctly under the "Endpoint Protection" parent node by following "How to Create Node XML for a Configuration Manager
Console Grid View" (yep, that is the easy part :-) ).
Where I need some help is creating the corresponding assembly dll. I thought following the SDK documentation "How to Create a Configuration Manager Console Custom View" would
be a great start and thought there might be a related sample in the SDK but this page leaves me with the following questions (I hope someone can answer):
1. What Configuration Manager reference assembly contains IConsoleView2?
I have added Microsoft.ConfigurationManagement.ManagementProvider as a reference assembly and added a using (C#) for every namespace in the assembly but IConsoleView2 still does not resolve.
2. The documentation is saying to subclass OverviewControllerBase but I can find no documentation on what this class is.
Thanks in advance,
Tony

Hi Alfonso,
I did eventually release the console extension (see screen shot at the bottom of the page
here).
It has been a while since I worked on this code but as I remember, once I got the references straightened out (see this thread), a lot of the confusion I had was just understanding that some of the programming that had to be done was in WPF (not WinForm).
The sample code from Microsoft does work though.
I never was able to figure out how to tie the "tree node menu item" functionality into the Ribbon (at the top of the SCCM console) so that is still on my TODO list.
So, my advice to you is to start with the Microsoft example code (which I did) from the SCCM SDK and if you get compile time errors, look first for the SCCM assembly references (Microsoft.[ConfigurationManagement, ConfigurationManagement.ManagementProvider,
EnterpriseManagement.UI.Foundation, EnterpriseManagement.UI.WpfViews) and then at the WPF assembly references (PresentationCore, PresentationFramework) for missing class references.
I hope this information can help you. Good luck sir!

Building an Admin Console Extension for a Custom Security Provider

I am looking for an example or a description how to build an Administration Console extension for a custom Authentication Provider.
Especially the creation page for the provider is interesting because I am not able to create and register the required Authentication Provider MBean.
The call “mbeanHome.getMBeanServer().createMBean(className,objectname)” always throws the following Exception “javax.management.ReflectionException: The MBean class could not be loaded by the default loader repository”
Even if I try the class “weblogic.security.providers.authentication.IPlanetAuthenticator”, that is part of the bea distribution, the same exception is thrown.
It seams that the Problem has something to do with class loaders?
When I use the standard admin console pages to create and configure my provider everything works fine.
The only example “kennedy0208.zip” I found in the net does not deal with the creation of the MBean.
It only customizes the edit pages for the provider and at that point the MBean has already been created by the standard admin pages.
Maybe the author discovered the same Problems and gave up!?
What makes me wondering is that I have to put my MBean Classes to my console extension war file to be able to import the packages in my jsp.
If I not put the classes to my war the compiler throws an exception because he can’t resolve the package.
Because I moved my provider implementation jar to the directory “WLHOME\server\lib\mbeantypes” as described in the bea documentation it should run without putting the classes to the war!?!
I am very surprised that the bea documentation does not provide any example about this topic.

Found it. Cut and paste error. I still had one of their example class
names in my code. Oops.
