Job Scheduler pattern
Hi, I'm not sure if I've asked this before, or if I should be asking on a general EJB list. I'd like to implement a job scheduler in J2EE. This would shcedule the execution of EJB methods at a specified time in the future. It would have to be persistent, and jobsd would be rescheduled upon appserver restart. Is it as simple as using the Timer and TimerTask in java.util to implement an app that is started with the client-module tag? Does it matter as far as Orion goes whether I use a java.util.Timer as a daemon or not? What can I do if the app, or the Timer object dies at any stage? I've had problems where after some time something goes wrong I get a strange Remote Exception, and the only solution is to restart the VM. What might cause this? Any opinions on this? How do I make this solution robust is what I am asking. Thanks for any help, Justin

HTTP 1.1 POSTgenerates duplicated response
We are hitting this extrange behaviour: We have a post response calling an entity bean in our Orion server and when the POST HTTP request is logged in HTTP1.1 protocol the function of the Entity Bean is called twice but there is only one request logged!! We get this behaviour when using IE 5.5 (HTTP1.1) but when the client is IE 5.0 (HTTP 1.0) the function is called only once. Is there any configuration problem? Thank you Inaki

RE: Retrieving stateful session bean
I tried working through this a couple of weeks ago and found no easy solution to accessing the session in the User Manager. For what you are trying to do, it seems you should be able to use the isUserInRole() method once the request actually gets to your application to make the decisions on what to display.

Authentication is done against an Oracle database using CMP entity beans. When the checkPassword method in my user manager is about to return true, I create a stateful session bean in which I store the user id of the successfully logged in user, so I can later check his rights (in order to later make the decision to display buttons, etc.). But how do I access this specific instance of the sfsb later on? I cannot store the handle in the session object, because I don't have access to the session object from my user manager (or do I?). So how can this be done? Frans winmail.dat Description: application/ms-tnef
Re: HTTP 1.1 POSTgenerates duplicated response
IE uses to call an url twice. I have come upon this behavior. I am not sure of the reason. I have also seen, that the default method for the HEAD request calls the GET method with a dummy HTTPServletResponse. It just returns the headers, that are sent by the servlet. This may be your problem, IF you are accessing the bean in the GET method also. Try a few things to clear this out (log in all methods to see what method is called when). This is quite unclear, but I have come to think that it is IE to send a request twice. I have seen it try to access a jsp, then the JSP dies with a Connection Closed By Foreign Host, and then IE requests the JSP again. I am quite sure it is not Orion, but IE. Haven't seen that with Netscape.

Where to put JAAS classfiles (loginmodules) when using it from a web app
Hi, I am using JAAS authentication from a web application, the problem is that the login modules that I use, and all the classes that the LoginModule uses are not loaded from the WEB-INF/classes or WEB_INF/lib folder. I have to put them on the jdk/jre/lib/ext. The problem is that the classes I put there collide with other applications that use the same installed JDK and also with some other webapplications that run on the same application server. I have developed it using jdk1.3.1 and JAAS 1.0. Is there a way to put specify where login module classes should be loaded that does not interfere with other applications (that is, I do not want to put any class on the jdk/ jre/lib/ext folder).

However, you should really be placing this file in your EAR's META-INF directory. It will automatically be copied to the application-depoyments directory upon new deployments.

Joseph, Very cool. How do you stop a client-module that auto-started and then restart it? Say you deployed the app (which also has ejb and web modules) and later wanted to add another task to the scheduler.

If you look at the interfaces in 1.5.3, the local interfaces are there. AFAIK, it doesn't work yet, though. In a previous thread, Magnus Rydin wrote about the re-factoring is happening now so that EJB 2.0 will work. Maybe this will be in 1.5.4, which isn't out yet.
