I would like to setup Camunda-BPM in a Tomcat 7 running on Jelastic. I followed the instructions.
The problem now is that Jelastic does not allow to add the file bpm-platform.xml into the catalina-home/conf directory. So when I start the tomcat I get
...
Caused by: org.camunda.bpm.engine.ProcessEngineException: /opt/tomcat/conf/bpm-platform.xml does not exist. This file is necessary for deploying the camunda BPM platform
Can someone please give me a hint where I can place bpm-platform.xml so that the BPM engine starts?
The directory you're looking for is labelled as 'server' in the Jelastic dashboard - but sadly you cannot upload new files to this directory via the dashboard (only edit the existing ones).
However, you can write to this directory via FTP (http://docs.jelastic.com/ftp-ftps-support), so you should be able to add the file that way.
If you are just using a trial account at the moment, you may need to seek assistance from your hosting provider to add the file there for you manually from their side (since trial accounts do not have public IP, so can't use FTP).

I'm migrating a Spring REST app WAR, that's running fine on a cPanel Tomcat 9 installation, to a Jelastic Tomcat 9 environment. All my content is returning 404's.
My first question is, what to put into the Jelastic Context field, during deployment? I have tried two different names: (1) ROOT- (e.g. ROOT-067) that Jelastic provides, and (2) my preferred webapp name. Both yield same 404 errors. When I study the webapps Directories, in both cases my WAR is correctly unpacked.
My second question is, do I need to modify the Tomcat conf/server.xml or conf/web.xml, that Jelastic generates? I have tried leaving them as originally generated, and making similar changes that I made to both files in the cPanel deployment. With the changed files, the Jelastic deployment fails due to Timeout error after 15 minutes.
Thanks for any and all help!

Usually you don't have to do any changes in your server.xml / web.xml unless you need to have something very specific in it, did you try to set your context name just as ROOT (without index and a dash)? Could you please provide your environment name and a hosting service provider name? I will contact providers tech guys and we will investigate why that problem occurs. Will be glad to help.
I'm trying to do some clustering testing and I am setting up multiple RabbitMQ services on a single Windows machine. I am able to set the environment variables RABBITMQ_NODENAME, RABBITMQ_SERVICENAME, and RABBITMQ_NODE_PORT then run RabbitMQ-Service Install to have a new RabbitMQ service installed under a different name.
My question is regarding the configuration file. Based on what I read on the RabbitMQ site, the configuration file defaults to the %AppData%\RabbitMQ directory.
I'm just having trouble trying to understand how it should be setup so I can have 3 instances of the service running with their own configuration.
Do I run the installation under a different local or domain account so it gets placed under a different %AppData%\RabbitMQ directory or can I add a directive to the service to look in a particular directory for the configuration file for that particular service?
Also, how does RABBITMQ_BASE come into play? Is that only for data and log files or does that also apply to the configuration file? I'm not sure if once I have the service setup with BASE defined as a specific path I can place a new rabbitmq.config under the root of that path.
Please confirm and provide any additional assistance. Thank you in advance!
For now I'm testing on Windows but I plan on converting to linux once I have this all working correctly and understood. Unfortunately, I've inherited the current environment and it's already installed and running using Windows servers. They just wanted me to setup clustering for it so I'm trying to simulate the cluster on my workstation.
Nevermind, I found out what I needed. The environment variable RABBITMQ_CONFIG_FILE can be used to override the location of the default config file.

You can run multiple RabbitMQ instances on 1 machine without clustering. You just need to change the ports and the node name in rabbitmq-defaults, rabbitmq-env and config files. If you want them as a service you can just create them from the already configured instances.
HERE is a detailed guide on how to do that. It's pretty easy and straightforward.
I am new to Oracle SOA Suite 11.1.1.4... Currently I am working on User defined XPath Functions. As part of this, I will prepare a jar file and need to deploy into weblogic server(10.3) domain lib folder(fusionmw\soasuite\11gR1\11.1.1\sp4\user_projects\domains\DOMAIN_NAME\lib). When ever this jar is altered, I need to replace this in server domain lib and restart the server to load the changes. But I feel this is not a good practice in production server to restart.
Is there a way to auto load updated jar into server's domain so the changes will reflect immediately instead of restarting the server.
Thanks in advance,
Swamy.
Auto-deployment is a method for quickly deploying an application to a stand-alone server (Administration Server) for evaluation or testing. It is recommended that this method be used only in a single-server development environment.
You can run a WebLogic Server domain in two different modes: development and production. Only development mode allows you use the auto-deployment feature
To auto-deploy an archived application, copy its archive file to the /autodeploy directory. WebLogic Server automatically sets the application’s deployment mode to stage mode.
Few words of caution when using autodeploy
Make sure that the server is running while you are adding/replacing/deleting a jar/war/ear in the autodeploy folder. Otherwise the server goes out of sync
Make sure the server is running in development mode otherwise the autodeploy folder changes are not seen by the server instance
In case you are packaging your jar/war/ear in a windows system then deploying it to a weblogic server running in a Unix environment, the weblogic instance will fail to unpack/autodeploy the file through the following exception
java.util.zip.ZipException: Error opening file - filename.war Message - error in opening zip file
java.io.IOException: error in opening zip file with ... Message - error in opening zip file ....

I am here to get some expert advice on deploying applications to WebLogic Production Server.
Is it a best practice to use Admin Server Console for deploying and redeploying applications in production. Actually I am deploying to a cluster having two managed server instances.
I have encountered this issue while i am redeploying application in the production. When i am deleting existing .ear file and adding updated .ear file will put the updated .ear file into prepared state. I can not make it Active state using Admin Server Console. If i try it will through some exceptions. But after some time it automatically goes in to active state, but i don't know what is happening inside. Sometimes i restart the server to make it active. Could anybody explain me what is the procedure when deploying application and redeploying applications in weblogic
Thanks in advance for any Help...
Generally WLST (WebLogic Scripting Tool) is used to deploy the applications. Administration Console can also be used to deploy/upgrade the applications but if there are many environments that need to be upgraded then WLST (which works like a command line tool) is much better option.
Get an overview of WLST to know how to use it to deploy/undeploy/upgrade applications.
Check out "Understanding WebLogic Server Deployment" and the "Redeploying Applications in a Production Environment". There are different factors that affect redeployment of an application which you might be running into.

Additionally, there is a WebLogic Plug-in for Maven in more recent WebLogic releases that you can use for deployments in conjunction with Maven.
I have a solution that contains multiple integration test projects and one web application project. each integration project connects to the web application when running the tests. I would like for each test project to access the website with its own database connection. I have been trying to use the web deploy functionality built into visual studio. However I have been unable to figure out what I need to add to either the deployment package that is created and/or the post build event for the test projects to declare the binding port for the website when deployed. For example, I want integration project A to create and access the website located at http://localhost:83 and integration project B to create and access the website located at http://localhost:82. Could someone please explain:
Is there anything I need to do the deployment package ?
What do I need to add to my post-build events for my integration projects when deploying the package, so that the website is created at the correct port when building the project?
Update:
I'm wanting to deploy the same site to two different locations on my machine so that I can run both sets of integration tests at the same time.
Update 2:
I have researched the web deploy tool and it allows you to specify parameters that modify what is deployed when you call it from the command line. However I have found the documentation very confusing. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd568968(WS.10).aspx
Update 3:
I expect these to be two different websites, each pointing to there own database. If possible I would like a single package that can be deployed using msdeploy. Which will then be called in a post build event from each of the integration test projects. I would like to specify the connection string and deployment location from the post build script of the integration project.
you can try with webdev.server included in visual studio. VisualStudio use this for start a webserver when you debug. With this you can start a webserver in the desire port (if the port is not used currently).
I made a bat file for change some options.
check it.
::Begin of bat file
cd C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\DevServer\10.0\
WebDev.WebServer40.exe /port:80 /path:"C:\PATHTOYOURWEBPROJECT" /vpath:"/NAMEOFYOURWEBPROJECT"
::End of bat file
You can acces in: http://localhost:80
I use the webserver40, but if you don't have net.4 or vs2010 you can try to find webserver[ xx version].exe
I hope that this will be helpful, and sorry for my broken english.
First off, you're approaching this the wrong way.
> I would like for each test project to access the website with its
own database connection.
Who is creating the DB connection? Your web site or the test project? For rest of your question to make sense, I presume its the web site (otherwise, Project A and Project B cannot share a connection out of the box).
If your website is making the connection, unless you're caching or having a static connection, there will be a new connection made as each request runs your your site on a new thread. Another simpler alternative is to take a query param and initiate a new connection based on that. If you seed it off the caller, you can also use it for more detailed logging.
Web Deployment projects are meant for deploying to integration servers, so that means you cannot access them by http://localhost... but the full FQDN of the server.
Most importantly, http://localhost:82/myApp and http://localhost:83/myApp are two different sites (unless you redirect from one of them to another one which in itself can cause additional issues) running the same codebase.
Having said that, you would then need to deploy your website twice and then all you need is to change the config/settings entry in Project A and B to point to these to different sites.
Hope this makes sense.
You can define virtual host configuration.
