[opencms-dev] Weblogic & Oracle

[Bodor, Murray]

Thanks Mark,

I was able to successfully install the app into weblogic 6.1 SP3 on my local
machine, and the wizard ran fine..
created all the tables in Oracle, set up the properties file correctly - and
yes, I am using the thin driver.

But when I run the workplace URL
(http://localhost:7001/ocmsApp/opencms/system/workplace/action/index.html),
and log in as Admin/admin, I get all kinds of scripting errors appearing in
my browser (IE 6.0). They come up right away when I launch the workplace,
and also if I move the cursor over the toolbar....none of the toolbar
buttons work.

Also, when I try to run the default content page
(http://localhost:7001/ocmsApp/opencms/index.jsp), the browser window
displays an empty page, and I get this message in my server error log:

<Nov 25, 2002 8:55:40 AM MST> <Error> <HTTP> <Included resource or file
"/ocmsApp/WEB-INF/jsp/online/Tindex.jsp.-1454851620.jsp" not found from
requested resource "/ocmsApp/opencms/index.jsp".>

I installed LEdit as per instructions...what else am I missing?

TIA
Murray

Hi Murray,

Try this:

1. Expand/unjar the opencms.war file into the applications directory of
your WebLogic domain.
2. Modify the classpath in startWebLogic.sh similar to the attached copy
from my domain, ensuring the relative positions of the jar files.
3. Configure OpenCms as a web application in the WebLogic console - e.g.
named "ocmsAppName"
4. Start the OpenCms setup wizard by pointing your browser to
http://server:port/ocmsAppName/ocsetup
5. Specify the "genericsql" database driver and a username/password for the
tables which will be created, as well as the connection string for the
database.
6. Follow the wizard through the steps - accept the default settings as you
go, say "yes" to importing the workplace (this takes a while, perhaps 10
minutes).
7. When the wizard is finished, you can start the OpenCms workplace by
going to
http://server:port/ocmsAppName/opencms/system/workplace/action/login.html
and logging in as Admin with password admin (case is important).

You may also want to consider this other posting from me (this resulted in
a fix in OpenCms 5.0beta):

"Having beaten my head against non-OpenCms issues with WebLogic and the
Oracle Oci driver for too long I have re-visited the GenericSql option
using the 'thin' driver, and think I have a solution.

It appears the "date/time" issue reported earlier is related to the size of
the byte array passed to the *.setBytes() calls in
com.opencms.file.genericSql.CmsDbAccess.  I gather that the Oracle driver
has a limit of 2000 bytes here and this produces the (misleading) error.

I have replaced setBytes with setBinaryStream and have written a new class
which simply turns the byte array into an Object extending
java.io.InputStream."

Regards,
Mark

Could someone please repost the instructions for installing OpenCMS with
BEA
Weblogic 6.1 and Oracle.

How come these don't appear anywhere on the OpenCMS site or in the install
guide?

TIA,
