RE: support EJB2.0 or not?
Hi Jeff...
Thats odd. I don't have cmp-version 2.x /cmp-version specified anywhere
in my descriptor. Nor do I have any indication in my application.xml file
that it should use EJB 2.0. And, as you know, I also have a bunch of EJB
2.0 CMP entity beans.
I started my ejb-jar.xml file by copying the one from the ATM sample. It
does not have that either. There is nothing in the server.xml file about
it. So I wonder, how does Orion it know? I assumed it guessed by looking at
the code, so prehaps he should post the code for his entity bean as well?.
Jim
PS - Did you know that whatever you use for a mail server routinely has
trouble accepting mail? I always get the 4 hour can't send warning from my
outgoing mail server.

Tim, you probably are missing something important in the deployment
descriptor. It's hard to say what without seeing it. Do you have
cmp-version 2.x /cmp-version
in your entity block? You should post your descriptor if you would
like further help.

My guess is the Orion is assuming my EJB is a 1.1 entity
bean. What tell Orion that the bean is a 2.0 bean?
Perhaps that is where my mistake lies.

You need to examine your deployment descriptor and
class/interface defs ..
there are lots of rules to follow, and they're easy to miss.
I have CMP
beans and dependent objects in various types of relationships
all running
just fine, but I've spent many an hour trying to find
mistakes evidenced by
errors such as yours. Go through the contract in section 9 of
the spec, and
assume nothing :)

When I try to write a 2.0 compliant entity bean:
public abstract class ContactBean implement EntityBean
{
public abstract void setName(String s);
public abstract String getName();
...
}
Orion throws the error (at deployment):
... Bean class com.tfc.ejb.ContactBean must not be declared

So what did I do wrong? Does Orion 1.3.8 or 1.4.0 support
EJB 2.0 entity beans like the web page advertises or not?

I hate guest
Some variant of this has got to be one of the top five questions asked on this list, and it has never been answered. I really, really, really need a simple answer: How do I assign security roles to "guest"? Is it even possible? No matter what I put in the various principals.xml files (and believe me, I've tried just about everything) I can't seem to allow the unauthenticated user to call an EJB method. It's driving me insane. My girlfriend tells me that while sleeping I thrash about mumbilng "com.evermind.server.rmi.OrionRemoteException: guest is not allowed to call this EJB method..." I'm not by nature a violent person, but if I ever meet this "guest", I'm going to reach out and throttle him :-) I have a reasonably straightforward system which represents users as entity beans and allows anyone to connect to the system and create an account. Thus, there must be a moment in time when the user must interact with the EJB system to create the entity bean *before* he or she can be logged in. I want to grant "guest" access to a single method on a single session bean. Why can't I seem to do this? I can't imagine that this pattern has not been implemented a bazillion times already. I was able to get everything working before by commenting all security-related material out of my EJBs' deployment descriptors (thus leaving the system wide open). Now I'm ready to put security back into the system, but the web-application runAs tag doesn't seem to be implemented yet. So I want to give a limited security role to "guest". Heeelp!

Re: customize finder method
Actually it makes more sense to place the % in the finder method as it
abstracts the SQL from the underlying code. A developer working with entity
beans should never need to use any SQL (even if it only is one character).
The reason the attempted finder method isn't working is to do with how JDBC
prepared statements work.
To fix the problem, in your finder-method tag in the deployment
descriptor, replace:
like '%$1%'
... with ...
like '%' + $1 + '%'

RE: Oracle on Orion
What is the nature of the console errors? That is, when you run Orion the first time around, you'll get your auto-create messages, success or failure. Should be quite revealing. I initially suspected table name length, but some of those that you say succeed seem to be no shorter than some that fail, so without an idea of what the messages say... FWIW we routinely use Oracle, and some of the tables are autocreated. Works OK.

I think that this is because EJB 2.0 is in draft stage, then the url for the dtd is not valid and Spy cannot found the dtd but orion uses it internaly.

I vote for email... IMHO, If you work for a company that doesn't have email and a POP or IMAP server then perhaps you should work on that instead. If it does you should be using your work email address, rather than a personal domain, if your Orion use is work related. It looks like you're running your polozoff.com mail server off an ATT DSL connection; consider using procmail or something similar to forward a copy of orion-interest mail to your work email address. Configuring and running a news server (been there) isn't as easy as it might seem, particularly if you're concerned about security, the periodic news DOS attacks, spam, etc. If the newsgroup is publicly fed, or the spammers stumble across the server (they will), you're broadcasting all our addresses out to the spammer community. Besides, the Orion team's resources would be much better spent on documentation. Otherwise they're going to fail and this list won't matter anyway.

there are lots of rules to follow, and they're easy to miss.

I really, really, really need a simple answer: How do I assign security roles to "guest"? Is it even possible? No matter what I put in the various principals.xml files (and believe me, I've tried just about everything) I can't seem to allow the unauthenticated user to call an EJB method. It's driving me insane. My girlfriend tells me that while sleeping I thrash about mumbilng "com.evermind.server.rmi.OrionRemoteException: guest is not allowed to call this EJB method..." I'm not by nature a violent person, but if I ever meet this "guest", I'm going to reach out and throttle him :-) I have a reasonably straightforward system which represents users as entity beans and allows anyone to connect to the system and create an account. Thus, there must be a moment in time when the user must interact with the EJB system to create the entity bean *before* he or she can be logged in. I want to grant "guest" access to a single method on a single session bean. Why can't I seem to do this? I can't imagine that this pattern has not been implemented a bazillion times already. I was able to get everything working before by commenting all security-related material out of my EJBs' deployment descriptors (thus leaving the system wide open). Now I'm ready to put security back into the system, but the web-application runAs tag doesn't seem to be implemented yet. So I want to give a limited security role to "guest". Heeelp!

EJB Help..
Hi all, I am trying my hand at EJB with Orion, and I am wondering if there is any way to avoid the hassle of always having to package the ejb classes into a .jar file, and so on. Is there any way at all to develop and deploy ejbs using an expanded dir structure, much like in the development of a .war file..where you have the whole www dir, WEB-INF, etc expanded..but then jar it up and rename it to .war for deployment? It seems rather tedious on ejb development every time a change is made, the whole thing has to be repackaged and deployed. I know there are some tools, such as JBuilder, VisualCafe, etc that do this for you somewhat nicely..but even those take a little bit of time to do it. So, for the purposes of development, where many changes are happening on any regular basis, how can I quickly develop and test ejb, with Orion, or any app server for that matter. I do want the ability for the context.lookup() call to work. The reason is..I have two computers, networked. I want to develop the ejbs on one computer, and have my www stuff on the other hitting them over the network so that i can get some kind of feel of the performance. I have a 4-way switch, so I can develop www stuff, then switch over to the other computer and do some ejb stuff. I will run one instance of Orion on each computer. However, I don't mind also being able to run www and ejb stuff in the same on instance on one computer, as long as the lookup stuff is used the same way, even though the ejb's are running locally. Any pointers on how to set up Orion to do this, including the application.xml module tag (how to point it to the right place instead of the ejb.jar file, for example so that the ejbs will get picked up by the server), web.xml, orion-web.xml, server.xml, etc..anything that needs to be done to get this to work.

I have been pulling my hair out trying to get oracle and orion to talk to

Here is my problem:
I have installed orion 1.3.8 on a Windows 2000 server with jdk1.2.2,
j2ee1.2.1, jre1.2.2 and oracle8idrivers12_01.zip.
I copied the tools.jar from the jdk into the c:\orion dir.
I have taken the time to set the following ENV variables based off some
earlier messages:
J2EE_CLASSPATH=c:\orion\lib\oracle8idrivers12_01.zip
J2EE_HOME=c:\j2ee
JAVA_HOME=c:\jdk
PATH=(Original path);c:\jdk
I tried exploding the oracle drivers in the orion/lib dir as well as the
jre/lib/ext dir.
I tried adding the oracle zip file to the library tag in the
application.xml
like so:
library path="../lib/oracle8idrivers12_01.zip;../lib" /
I setup the data-source file like so:

This is not a servlet error really, this is an xwindows error. try being root and typing xhost + (a temporary fix this will open up your x server to the world..) if that works you can man xhost to see how to open specific IP's to connect to the Xserver. If this is not your box but a company box (highly likely coming from a .gov domain) someone reconfigured the Xserver to lock it down. Sysadmins do that when unknown users start hitting Xservers hehe.

Re: Help with getting Orion to talke to Oracle.
That's not quite true. While you can do what Al recommends you can also
add a library path statement to the application.xml config file. As in the
following:
orion-application
!-- snip --
!-- Path to the libraries that are installed on this server.
These will accesible for the servlets, EJBs etc --
library path="../lib" /
library path="../../java/oracle_jdbc" /
!-- snip --
/orion-application

Re: Oracle on Orion
Thanks for the reply, We figured out the problem. What was wrong was this: 1) It initially created the all tables(only a few were in the XML file) a week or so ago under a test username/password we were using 2) We then created our own username/password and granted it certain privileges(we aren't DBA's so this was probably the trouble) 3) It somehow saw that the tables were already created under the original username/password we used, hence it only created the new tables we added to our XML file over the past couple of days. Thanks again, Chris Rafael Alvarez wrote: Hi! Is there any error message during deploy? Orion stops the auto-creation process if there is any SQLException. I also found that Orion don't create tables for beans that where already deployed, even if you drop them. -- Best regards, Rafael mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: I had not seen this before ... and it looks hokey to me.
\ The biggest drawback to anonymous inner classes (as I see it) is that the compiler creates a separate class file for each one. I had a small project's .jar file double in size due to these class files (since .jar compression is file-by-file). There certainly needs to be some degree of standardisation on a chunking mechanism under the jar scheme. I appreciate that it's nice to have pure compatibility with zip but it's not ideal for large class hierarchies - especially as one of the aims is brevity of transmission. I wondered if something like package level chunking would work well and have the archive directory contain a packing list indexed to the package chunk. Another possiblity is to have non-static inner classes loaded with the enclosing class but not initialised until first use. Then a java bytecode file could contain all directly dependant classes in one file - no more Class$1.class files and perhaps a more efficient loading process... Static inner classes of course should probably still be separate - Does an enclosing class get loaded and initalised when a static inner class is instanciated? -- Aaron Scott-Boddendijk INTAZ Limited +64 7 838 3371 Voice +64 7 838 3372 Fax

RE: EJB Help..
Thanks for the note. One thing..since I compile all of my classes into the www/WEB-INF/classes dir, should I put a META-INF in the /classes dir, and just point the module to the WEB-INF/classes folder? Would that work? Not that I want you to tell me everything, ok..I do, but what exactly do I need to get EJB deployed in that way? My first stab that I want to do is create a login process. I would like to use statless session beans, and also use an entity bean..using CMP. I created 3 classes, Login, LoginBean and LoginHome. I have them in com.mycompany.ejb package. That compiles to www/WEB-INF/classes dir. So do I make application.xml like so: module/www/WEB-INF/classes/module where the com folder starts? Or do I actually have to point them directly to the .class files themselves? If the classes are compiled in a package, I assume I need to point the ejb module setting to the root package right? Furthermore, do I need that ejb.xml file in META-INF? If so, what should it be set to if I am using an expanded dir? Lastly, how the heck to I get the entity bean added..is that a forth class, or a whole set of 3 different classes, one being the entity bean, the other two being like the home and remote objects? It seems kind of silly that I would need 6 classes to do the login process..3 for the session/logic stuff, and 3 for the entity/database mapping.

For the deployment details, see the Orion primer - http://www.jollem.com I generally move all classes from the WEB-INF/classes folder into the ejb module (makes it more portable etc) - makes them more visible.

Hi all, I am trying my hand at EJB with Orion, and I am wondering if there is any way to avoid the hassle of always having to package the ejb classes into a .jar file, and so on. Is there any way at all to develop and deploy ejbs using an expanded dir structure, much like in the development of a .war file..where you have the whole www dir, WEB-INF, etc expanded..but then jar it up and rename it to .war for deployment?

I have a 4-way switch, so I can develop www stuff, then switch over to the other computer and do some ejb stuff. I will run one instance of Orion on each computer. However, I don't mind also being able to run www and ejb stuff in the same on instance on one computer, as long as the lookup stuff is used the same way, even though the ejb's are running locally. Any pointers on how to set up Orion to do this, including the application.xml module tag (how to point it to the right place instead of the ejb.jar file, for example so that the ejbs will get picked up by the server), web.xml, orion-web.xml, server.xml, etc..anything that needs to be done to get this to work.

RE: Orion Powered Sites
Well For development of our customers sites, (all are B2B) we use Orion. I will expect that more then a few of our customers will take our end recommendation and use Orion as their distribution application server. I expect that many more sites are using Orion then those you see there.. I do know its the development target for our group.

taglib, JNDI, odd problem.
I'm trying to set up a debugging environment and I've noticed something weird. I've been using ejbtags.jar, and I discovered that using the tag like so ejb:useHome id="userManagerHome" type="net.coljac.aok.ejb.UserManagerHome" location="ejb/UserManagerHome" / Results in a JNDI Exception: javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: NamingException: ejb/UserManagerHome not found at com.evermind.ejb.taglib.UseHomeTag.doStartTag(UseHomeTag.java:37) So, I've been using the tag with a fully qualified JNDI path: ejb:useHome id="userManagerHome" type="net.coljac.aok.ejb.UserManagerHome" location="java:comp/env/ejb/UserManagerHome" / That works. I scratched my head over why this would be so for a while, but moved on. Now, however, if I run Orion from inside JBuilder, the second (verbose) version results in javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: NamingException: java:comp/env namespace is only available from within a J2EE component at com.evermind.ejb.taglib.UseHomeTag.doStartTag(UseHomeTag.java:37) ... and the first version works. What about my setup could possibly account for this discrepancy? The web.xml seems normal. ... ejb-ref ejb-ref-nameejb/UserManagerHome/ejb-ref-name ejb-ref-typeSession/ejb-ref-type homenet.coljac.aok.ejb.UserManagerHome/home remotenet.coljac.aok.ejb.UserManager/remote /ejb-ref ... I'm not sure what the difference is. I tried running orion outside JBuilder using the JBuilder version of the jdk, with "." as the classpath. JBuilder has orion.jar and ejb.jar first in its classpath. Curious. If anyone has any ideas, I'm all ears.

Orion and GZIP
Hi all, I know the Orion team mentioned to me that Orion has support for sending JSP pages back as gzip compressed html. Is this support available in the 1.2.9 version of Orion..if not, what version is it in? Also, what do I have to do to get all my JSP pages to return HTML content in g-zip format to speed things up. I believe MSIE 5 and NS 4.7 and later both handle g-zip compression right? So as long as our clients are using MSIE 5+ and NS4.7+, they should be able to see the pages? Thanks.
Performance test...
Hi all, Well, using a pretty nifty (and very expensive) testing tool, I was able to do some "minor" testing on a login process of our site. Using Orion, Oracle 8i database, and e-load test suite, here are some numbers that I got: 25 users - 15 connections in the pool pages per second - 43 pages per day - 3.75 million transactions per second - 14.5 transactions per day - 1.26 million 25 users - 30 connections in the pool pages per second- 26.4 pages per day - 2.28 million transactions per second - 8.81 transactions per day - 761333 25 users - 5 connections in the pool pages per second - 51.95 pages per day - 4.48 million transactions per second - 17.32 transactions per day- 1.49 million The test is simple. It uses the browser built into the e-test suite software and "automates" the login process of our site. I ran the test on a PIII650, with 512MB RAM. The database is running on a SUN E450 serve with 512MB RAM. The test simply sends a post submitted form with the login name and password to a controller servlet that then hits the database using a connection via the pool, and logs in the user. All logins were valid, I did not test invalid login names/passwords. Just thought I would share these numbers. Next week I will be setting up a two-server farm, using the load-balancer software that Orion includes in their download. Each server will be dual PIII550 with 512MB RAM and SCSI III RAID hd setup (Actually, they are IBM NetFinitiy 4000R units). The load balancer will run on a slow PII300 workstation with 128MB RAM (I hope this is good enough). They will be failed over and load-balanced, and I will test the performance on those and post the results here. The only thing I am not sure of is if different testing software performs about the same..or are there dramatically different results. If anyone wants me to attempt to test their site, I'll give it a go from here..but its over a T1 connection, where as my test is done locally on a LAN, so I am sure the results are more skewed.

RE: Performance test...
Not sure of the URL, but its RSW software. It costs us something like $35K for the software, including 7 licenses, so its definitely not cheap. But its a great web-based testing tool. A lot of people are used to Silk or QA Partner, but this one is extremely easy to use and learn. While it does allow for written script testing, it uses a sort of macro record mode to record every move you make in their internal browser. You can then set up a databank (a text file) that is used against a load-test, so that it simulates virtual users. I know we can simulat up to 100 virutal users with our licenses, which is small potatoes compared to some users of this tool. One of thier clients simulats 10,000 users. The software has "clients" that can be run on many computers over a network so you can run it over night, each computer simulating say 100 users, all hitting the same one site. Anyways..this is sort of off topic..but if you have any questions, feel free to email me. -Original Message- From: Santosh Kumar [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, October 19, 2000 9:19 PM To: Orion-Interest Subject: Re: Performance test...
