Re: EJB-lookup problems with moved Product ejb example
Hi Vivek. I think, the error you got in the fifth step is because you have changed from ejbsamples domain to pricing. So you have to specify it in the URL. You can use following lines while running the client. Properties p = new Properties(); p.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,"com.evermind.server.ApplicationClient InitialContextFactory"); p.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL,"ormi://IPAddress/pricing"); p.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL,"username"); p.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS,"password"); Context context = new InitialContext(p); .context.lookup(..) etc. Shailesh Joshi Java Programmer Versaware (India) Ltd. - Original Message - From: Vivek Iyer [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Orion-Interest [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 17, 2000 8:40 AM Subject: EJB-lookup problems with moved "Product" ejb example Hello all, I'm getting a frustrating problem trying to bring up the "Product" entity bean inside Orion 1.4.0 (after latest autoupdate - though I had the problem with 1.3.4 as well).

Hi, I'm by far not a UNIX sysadm expert, but as far I my memory goes I think that by looking at the init(8) documentation you'll find good directions how to implement this in a UNIX fashion.

Re: custom user management
There should be a tutorial arriving for this 'shortly', however in the
meantime this should be enough to get you going:
Implement the UserManager, User, and Group classes. (for example,
MyUserManager, MyUser, MyGroup).
The UserManager probably just needs to look like this for now:
public class MyUserManager extends AbstractUserManager {
public User getUser(String userName) {
if (userName == null)
return null;
return new MyUser(userName);
}
public Group getGroup(String groupName) {
if (groupName == null)
return null;
return new MyGroup(groupName);
}
}
You may need to implement some of the other methods too depending on your
requirements, but that should be a good start.
For the MyUser class, just implementing the constructor, authenticate() and
isMemberOf() should be enough for starters:
public class MyUser implements User {
private String username;
public MyUser(String username) {
this.username = username;
}
public boolean authenticate(String password) {
if (username == null)
return false;
// Lookup the user 'username', and compare the password supplied
// with their real password (possibly using a password hashing
function).
// ...
return ((password != null) (password.equals(realPassword)));
}
public boolean isMemberOf(Group group) {
if (username == null)
return false;
// Do whatever you need to do to see if the user is in the group,
// and return true or false accordingly. Eg, find the username and
// the groupname as a matching pair in a user-group mapping table.
}
}
The Group class can be very simple, for example as a minimum you can get
away with:
public class MyGroup implements Group {
String groupname;
public MyGroup(String groupname) {
this.groupname = groupname;
}
public String getName() {
return groupName;
}
}
Now you need to set up your orion-application.xml and web.xml files as per
the orion/docs/orion-application-xml.html and orion/docs/web-xml.html
files.
Eg, add to orion-application.xml your role-group mappings, eg:
security-role-mapping name="sr_editor"
group name="editor" /
/security-role-mapping
and the the UserManager class, eg:
user-manager class="com.mycompany.security.MyUserManager"
/user-manager
In web.xml, add your security-constraint tags, the login-config, and
your security-role tags. There are examples of these tags that come with
orion I think, plus there's the docs, so you should be able to figure this
out easily enough. As a tip, start with BASIC authentication, and change it
to form based or whatever once that is working properly.
That's about it (well, as far as I can remember, there could be a couple of
other minor steps?).
Anyway, orion will now see that a protected resource has been asked for
(because of the security-constraint tags), and know to create an instance
of your UserManager class (thanks to the user-manager tag). It will use
this to get a User and a Group, and will attempt to authenticate that the
user falls into the correct group (which in turn maps to the correct role).
Apologies for any typo's/errors in the above, I've bashed it out pretty
quickly, but it should definitely point you in the right direction. Good
luck!

In this page, I get the servlet path of the request using: pageContext.getRequest().getServletPath() It returns "view.jsp" although I would expect "ListServlet".

I have a helper class to get/close connections for a named connection pool. I can see in my code when going to get the connection, orion is hung. At other times it works fine. I've found no rhyme or reason for the delays in delivering a connection. Shouldn't the pool be already connected to the database!? My system is not under high load and this still occurs.

Re: custom user management
Chris,
thanks a lot for your extensive explanation! However, one of my problems
seems to remain (unless I missed something in your mail). As I mentioned, I
want to programmatically perform the login from my main portal page and
prevent orion from bringing up the login form (or login popup for BASIC
auth). I do want to keep the security-constraints and have orion perform
automatic authentication in case a user directly accesses any of the
protected pages.
This means that after programmatical login I need to enter some information
into the session object (or anywhere else) to notify orion that login has
already been performed. JRun, for example, keeps an AuthenticatedPrincipal
in the session (although it is undocumented under what attribute name).
Hints? Am I missing something?

Subject: Re: custom user management
There should be a tutorial arriving for this 'shortly', however in the
meantime this should be enough to get you going:
Implement the UserManager, User, and Group classes. (for example,
MyUserManager, MyUser, MyGroup).
The UserManager probably just needs to look like this for now:
public class MyUserManager extends AbstractUserManager {
public User getUser(String userName) {
if (userName == null)
return null;
return new MyUser(userName);
}
public Group getGroup(String groupName) {
if (groupName == null)
return null;
return new MyGroup(groupName);
}
}
You may need to implement some of the other methods too depending on your
requirements, but that should be a good start.
For the MyUser class, just implementing the constructor, authenticate() and
isMemberOf() should be enough for starters:
public class MyUser implements User {
private String username;
public MyUser(String username) {
this.username = username;
}
public boolean authenticate(String password) {
if (username == null)
return false;
// Lookup the user 'username', and compare the password supplied
// with their real password (possibly using a password hashing
function).
// ...
return ((password != null) (password.equals(realPassword)));
}
public boolean isMemberOf(Group group) {
if (username == null)
return false;
// Do whatever you need to do to see if the user is in the group,
// and return true or false accordingly. Eg, find the username and
// the groupname as a matching pair in a user-group mapping table.
}
}
The Group class can be very simple, for example as a minimum you can get
away with:
public class MyGroup implements Group {
String groupname;
public MyGroup(String groupname) {
this.groupname = groupname;
}
public String getName() {
return groupName;
}
}
Now you need to set up your orion-application.xml and web.xml files as per
the orion/docs/orion-application-xml.html and orion/docs/web-xml.html
files.
Eg, add to orion-application.xml your role-group mappings, eg:
security-role-mapping name="sr_editor"
group name="editor" /
/security-role-mapping
and the the UserManager class, eg:
user-manager class="com.mycompany.security.MyUserManager"
/user-manager
In web.xml, add your security-constraint tags, the login-config, and
your security-role tags. There are examples of these tags that come with
orion I think, plus there's the docs, so you should be able to figure this
out easily enough. As a tip, start with BASIC authentication, and change it
to form based or whatever once that is working properly.
That's about it (well, as far as I can remember, there could be a couple of
other minor steps?).
Anyway, orion will now see that a protected resource has been asked for
(because of the security-constraint tags), and know to create an instance
of your UserManager class (thanks to the user-manager tag). It will use
this to get a User and a Group, and will attempt to authenticate that the
user falls into the correct group (which in turn maps to the correct role).
Apologies for any typo's/errors in the above, I've bashed it out pretty
quickly, but it should definitely point you in the right direction. Good
luck!

If you use the login() method, available through the user manager, Orion
will already know that login happened. The username that you logged in with
will have the correct security role, for example.

Re: custom user management
Ah sorry, now I see what your problem is. I assume you're trying to
automatically log someone in if they have cookies?
I've never tried it, but I can't see why you couldn't submit the form
parameters yourself for form-based authentication.
i.e. when the form-login-page is called, it is actually a JSP page or
servlet that reads the cookie values and posts the j_username/j_password
automatically rather than returning to the client for the values. Sounds
like it might work? If you try this I'd be interested in knowing the
outcome!
Hope this helps.

this to get a User and a Group, and will attempt to authenticate that the

CMP Primer related question..
Title: RE: Deleting cookies with Orion Hi all, I got the CMP Orion Primer, but it leaves me in the dark on a couple of things (as does the Orion Primer..which shows EJB). It appears EJB isn't all that hard, but the primers, and other articles I have been looking at, don't clearly state how you can test and develop EJB without having to keep on repackaging it into a jar file, deploying it, etc. I can't imagine every time you make a change to an entity bean or session bean that you have to repackage the thing and redeploy it. Isn't there any way you can develop EJBs as you do servlets, javabeans and jsp pages..an "open" dir structure. I guess worse case scenario if this can't be done, a good script that you run each time you make a change that compiles, packages and deploys it would be handy..is one available? Also, about Orion..when using CMP, does Orion automatically do connection pooling for you (for database connections)? I see there is the ability to use a PooledConnection in servlets, but I am unclear if when using CMP Orion (and other J2EE app servers for that matter) use an internal connection pool that you can set the size of somehow. Lastly, on our site we currently use our own home-brewn persistence layer. It does the job, but a query of 600 station objects appears to use about 400MB of memory. I assume our code is very bad..I didn't write it..but it doesn't make much since to me as to why a query with only 400 objects being created would require so much memory. None the less, alot of our queries use joins with other tables. I read somewhere that complex O/R mapping wont be available until EJB 2.0, so does that mean I can't do a query of an object that requires joins? I am unclear as to how exactly when using CMP you would get joins to work. For example, a one to many relationship of a particular table...say a user with many transactions. Also, what if each transaction had many "sub transactions". Thus, the first table would be many users. Each user can have many transactions, and each transaction could have many sub-transactions. Is this possible now with CMP, Orion and O/R? thanks.

Installing Orion
Orion experts: Here is another dumb Newbee question, for you experts out there. After you got your machine set up (Windows or Unix), have a WWW. name, and are ready to install Orion, did you: 1. Follow the directions in the readme file under the Orion directory (which says to issue command java -jar orion.jar - install and follow the directions). 2. Follow the directions in the Orion Doc under Install.html 3. If you did option two, did you set up Orion to process the www site by using the Orion Doc module adding a site.html 4. None of the above and I am entirely off base. I have Orion running under my Windows 2000 machine in a development mode and now I am really for the real world. I would appreciate a simple answer in a sentence or two. Thank you in advance. Randy

Actually, in orion-web.xml (located in
/orion/application-deployments/app_name/web_app_name/orion-web.xml) there is a
setting for development..which you said. But also there is another option,
called source-directory="/path/dir" and when development="true" every time you
save the file, Orion will auto-reload your web-app for you (and I don't think
it shows you this in its output window..but maybe it does). I have not been
able to see this work, mostly because if ANY of your HttpSession objects do
not implement Serializable, it wont' work for some reason. Our code is jacked
up enough where we do not do it right. Anyways, Orion and Resin are the only
two servlet engines (Orion being a full J2EE app server too) that auto-reload
your entire app, even if you change code in a "core" class. Most app servers
and servlet engines reload only servlets and/or JSPs/javabeans, not core
classes, and so on. Just make sure when you deploy to production your turn
development off ("false"). In the /docs folder, look at
orion-web.xml.html..it will explain this to you.

Subject: Orion 1.3.8 and Servlets
Guys,
I have this small problem with my servlets..
whenever I make changes to them and recompile them, I have
to restart my orion for the changes to take effect..
I know there is a development mode which auto
compiles the files but I suppose that only applies
to JSP's ?
so what I would like to know is whether it is possible to
compile servlets and have the changes take effect
immediately without having to restart, kinda like
installing a new .ear or .war file.
sincerely,
Arjan Wijnveen MarketXS B.V.
Re: orionsupport.com
I think better sources of information then the standard documentation is great and very helpful for people using Orion. I have sometimes great difficulties getting things sorted out to the extend I'm wondering whether I'm on the right track. Assuming I'm not the only one in that situation, I guess more documentation and more easy to understand examples is something a lot of (potential) Orion users will be happy with (I wish the guys of Orion lots of licence sales to be able to spend more resources on better documentation). Hear hear! Great server - pity they have so far not gone that Xtra mile.
Cookie info in access log?
Title: Cookie info in access log? Is it at all possible to have cookie info show up in access logfiles? This would help our weblogs do their magic. I've looked over the docs and don't see anything that lets me specify the cookie name I'd like logged (I know Apache provides this functionality though!)
Orion slower than it could be [WAS: Compressing the output stream]
We tried using Orion to host 2 servlets, one using compression one not - the
one using compression was much faster than the one without it. I assume
this means that orion's JSP are not compressed.
Please repsond if this is an inaccurate statement
Thanks
Nate

You can do content encoding in jsp, I did it. Just make sure
that the page
does not access the implicit variable out at all (e.g do not
have blanks
outside scripts).
But I think that jsp is not the right tool to do that. The
JSP-Container
should do that for you.
The code is roughly:
%@page .%
response.setHeader("Content-Encoding", "gzip");
GZIPOutputStream gos = new
GZIPOutputStream(response.getOutputStream());
byte[] b = "html bla bla .../html".getBytes();
gos.write(b);
gos.close();

Does orion do this automatically ? caus eit doesn't seem to
allow me to in a

Yes, i've done old_application asp processing this way All graphics/*.js/*.css keeped in Orion structure, and only asp works at standalone server. - Original Message - From: "David Kenzik" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: "Orion-Interest" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 17, 2000 4:48 PM Subject: Orion Success I posted a question related to this yesterday.

Re:Orion slower than...
Hi Nate,
Do you have some figures to look at?
I mean, How much was the improvement in speed? What is the size of the
content file?
Did you try out with various content sizes?

Subject: Orion slower than it could be [WAS: Compressing the output stream]
We tried using Orion to host 2 servlets, one using compression one not -
the
one using compression was much faster than the one without it. I assume
this means that orion's JSP are not compressed.
Please repsond if this is an inaccurate statement
Thanks

You can do content encoding in jsp, I did it. Just make sure
that the page
does not access the implicit variable out at all (e.g do not
have blanks
outside scripts).
But I think that jsp is not the right tool to do that. The
JSP-Container
should do that for you.
The code is roughly:
%@page .%
response.setHeader("Content-Encoding", "gzip");
GZIPOutputStream gos = new
GZIPOutputStream(response.getOutputStream());
byte[] b = "html bla bla .../html".getBytes();
gos.write(b);
gos.close();

Does orion do this automatically ? caus eit doesn't seem to
allow me to in a
JSp (I can't assign out to a different stream). Do I have to
do it in a
servlet ?
Anyone out there know ???
TIA,
Nate
