I want to create a html file with a Java applet for my database. The Java code works fine in the applet viewer and I've used a JDBC jar file for SQL connectivity.
What I can't do, is to link these two and embed them onto a html file. How do I do it?
My WelcomApplet class has 6 other classes in the same file which I've used for Swing.
Due to the limited privileges available in java applets, it's generally a lot easier to use a three-tier system (applet talks to application server which talks to database through JDBC) rather than a two-tier system (applet talks to database).
Don't get me wrong, I think it's possible to talk directly if you grant certain permissions to the applet, but three-tier is more prevalent for web applets.
See http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/rbhelp/v6r3/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.ibm.redbrick.doc6.3%2Fciacg%2Fciacg35.htm.
If I understood you right, you need to write several *.jar files in "ARCHIVE" attribute of an "APPLET" tag.
For example:
<applet
codebase = "."
archive = "test.jar,spring.jar,jdbc.jar,etc.jar"
code = "applet.Applet1"
name = "Applet"
width = "100"
height = "100" >
</applet>

I have a huge sqlite file containing my db. I need to know if it is possible and how to connect to this db as an embedded one with jpa.
I'm developing an app that packs this database inside it's own jar so that when I use it on another system I don't have to import a copy of my db back and forth.
The technologies I'd like to use are Angular and Spring since those are the ones I know best. If there are some techonlogies that better suit this purpose I'd like some suggestions.
Thanks :)
I hope I undestood your question correctly, so I made a small project for you, hence you can have a look into it: spring-jpa-sqlite-sample. It may guide you a bit, though I and don't claim correctness or completeness.
The path to the sqlite file can easily be changed by inserting the correct url in the persistence.properties file:
driverClassName=org.sqlite.JDBC
url=jdbc:sqlite:src/main/resources/chinook.db --> you may use relative paths.
hibernate.dialect=dev.mutiny.semo.config.SQLiteDataTypesConfig
hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto=none
hibernate.show_sql=true
You can also use Environment variables from your system, which Spring tries to read from, so that you can reference the correct directory to a file. This can be found here: Read system environment var (SO)
Last but not least. Beware of using huge SQLite files. Find another way and transfer it first into a 'real' Database like any other Client/Server RDBMS you know (Oracle, MariaDB, MSSQL, depends on your scenario/taste).
Have closer look onto the documentation: When to use SQLite (and when not to!)
I read on MOS Doc ID 1945619.1 that starting with the 12.1.3 Oracle HTTP Server (OHS), the mod_plsql feature has been deprecated and will not be included with the 12.2 Oracle HTTP Server.
For the future, Oracle recommends moving to Oracle REST Data Services (formerly known as Oracle APEX Listener) as an alternative to mod_plsql.
Our shop have a lot of mod_plsql applications (i.e. applications written usinjg HTP/HTF packages) in production. Since I don't know anything about Oracle REST Data Services I'm asking you if we can migrate the old applications to this new product without changing the code.
Thank you.
Kind regards, Cristian
Doug McMahon (Oracle employee) has a great open source module for Apache.
Apache PL/SQL Gateway Module
(mod_owa)
https://oss.oracle.com/projects/mod_owa/dist/documentation/modowa.htm
I am using it in a production environment and I highly recommend it. It's really fast and rock solid.
You need to do some compiling but it's worth it being able to use Apache 2.4 and mod_plsql.
Steps:
download httpd 2.4.? from apache.org + extract
If Centos 6 or less download apr and apr-util
configure with enable-so, make and make install
./configure --enable-so --with-apr=/usr/local/apr --with-apr-util=/usr/local/apr
Download mod_owa + unzip
create empty directory. Copy all files from "apache24" into new folder. Copy all files from "src" to new folder
enter new folder and edit modowa.mk <-- important add $ORACLE_HOME, edit APACHE_TOP
Copy mod_owa.so to apache's modules
Add a modowa.conf in Apache's conf/ dir.
Example modowa.conf:
loadModule owa_module modules/mod_owa.so
<Location /pls>
Options None
SetHandler owa_handler
OwaUserid user/pass
OwaNLS AMERICAN_AMERICA.AL32UTF8
OwaPool 100
OwaStart "package.procedure"
OwaDocProc "wwv_flow_file_mgr.process_download"
OwaDocTable photos_upload BLOB_CONTENT
OwaUploadMax 50M
OwaCharset "utf8"
order deny,allow
allow from all
OwaReset LAZY
OwaCharsize 4
OwaFlex package.procedure
OwaHttp REST
</Location>
Before starting httpd ORACLE_HOME, NLS_LANG needs to be set (ORACLE_SID also if local). It needs access to an Oracle Home with libclntsh.so. (Oracle client will do).
I simply added oracle.conf (one line full path to oracle home/lib) under /etc/ld.so.conf.d (+ ldconfig)
Really scalable and a much cleaner setup then OHS.
My shop is pretty much in the same situation as you are.
We also have some very large mod_plsql/htp based applications and will have to migrate to the Oracle REST Data Services at some point.
We have already spend quite some time in testing different ORDS configuration and our overall conclusions are:
only APEX applications are fully supported
key functionality is still available
harder to configure and maintain
slight performance degradation
some mod_plsql configuration options do no longer exist or have changed
The biggest problems we are currently facing (and actually preventing us from switching to ORDS) are some restrictions when using non-APEX (pure HTF/HTP) applications.
We already filed some SR's because some functionality in ORDS (for example the file upload and download API) is only available when running an APEX application.
The biggest hurdle to get over is setting up Oracle Rest Services (ORS) and securing it. Once this is done, your web toolkit apps will work the same. The url may slightly change, so if you've referenced URLs using full paths as opposed to relative paths you might need modify code.
I am not sure if ORS is as powerful as Apache in areas like mod_rewrite, mod_proxy, virtual hosts with multiple ip addresses, etc...
Another open source alternative is tox.
I have a problem connecting to oracle from within a java servlet running in Jetty (as part of Eclipse). The identical code runs fine from a standalone java app.
My entire development environment is on a single mac. I am using Eclipse and have included the ojdbc6.jar in the main 'Referenced Libraries' and have also dragged and dropped this file in the war/web-inf/lib folder.
As soon as the line
OracleConnectionPoolDataSource ocpds = new
OracleConnectionPoolDataSource();
is called (within the servlet) I get the exception:
java.security.AccessControlException: access denied
(javax.management.MBeanServerPermission createMBeanServer)
Am I missing some security policy or so? If so, exactly what do I do need to do to rectify this? And where does this BeanServer come in?
Thanks in advance.
Every web container has its own way of defining data sources, and making them available through JNDI. You should do that instead.
The native oracle connection pool seems to be creating an MBeanServer, and this is not probably not allowed by the security manager used by Jetty. See http://wiki.eclipse.org/Jetty/Feature/Secure_Mode and http://wiki.eclipse.org/Jetty/Tutorial/Jetty-Policy.
Worked it out - not entirely clear why but created a new GWT app in Eclipse but this time NOT included the Google App Engine (which is ticked by default). This seems to add some restrictions to the code when it is running in Jetty....
I now have copied the sample code over and all is working well!
I'm working on an app that uses Jena for storage (with the TDB backend). I'm looking for something like the equivalent of Squirrel, that lets me see what's being stored, run queries etc. This seems like an obvious thing to need, but my (perhaps badly phrased) google queries aren't turning up anything promising.
Any suggestions, please? I'm on XP. Even a command line tool would be helpful.
Take a look at my Store Manager tool which is part of the dotNetRDF Toolkit which I develop as part of the wider dotNetRDF project I maintain.
It provides a fairly basic GUI through which you can connect to various Triple Stores including TDB provided that you expose your dataset via Joseki/Fuseki. You need to have .Net 3.5 installed to run the apps in the toolkit.
If you don't already expose your TDB dataset via HTTP try using Fuseki as it is ridiculously easy to use and can be run just on your local machine when necessary to make your TDB store available via HTTP for use with my tool e.g.
java -jar fuseki-0.1.0-server.jar --update --loc data /dataset
Please see the Fuseki wiki for more information on running Fuseki and the various options. In the above example Fuseki is run with SPARQL Update enabled (the --update flag), using the TDB dataset located in the directory data (the --loc data argument) and with a base URI of /dataset for the data.
Once running you can use my tool to connect to a Fuseki server by going to File > New Generic Store Manager, selecting the "Fuseki" tab from the dialog that appears, entering the URI http://localhost:3030/dataset/data and then clicking "Connect to Fuseki".
Twinkle is a handy SPARQL client : http://www.ldodds.com/projects/twinkle/
As it happens I'm working on something similar myself, but it still needs a lot of work (check back in a month :) http://hyperdata.org/wiki/Scute
first download jena fusaki from
https://jena.apache.org/download/index.cgi
un-zip the file and copy the "jena-fuseki-1.0.1" to c drive
open cmd
type for accesing the folder
"cd C:\jena-fuseki-1.0.1"
then type
"java -jar fuseki-server.jar --update --loc data /dataset"
at last open a browser and type
"localhost:3030/"
remember you must first declear the enviorment verible(located in system poperties then advance tab)
and edit variable name call "Path" in the "System verible" to
"C:\jena-fuseki-1.0.1"
I also develop a SPARQL client, Open Source in Java Swing: EulerGUI.
In fact it does a lot more, see the manual:
http://eulergui.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/eulergui/trunk/eulergui/html/documentation.html
For the SPARQL feature, better take the EulerGUI minimal build:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/eulergui/files/eulergui/1.11/
I have the BIRT Report Server configured in TOMCAT and it works fine when running reports that require an XML datasource, but that XML file has be available on the network in order for the server to find it and run. Is there an out of the box configuration in the BIRT server that will prompt the user to upload the XML file directly to the server when they try to run a given report that requires an XML data source? This would be handy for users that have the XML datasource stored locally on their C drive and not have to move them to a network server in order to be read by BIRT. Thanks in advance.

There is not an OOTB solution that does what you describe.
Without the OOTB option, the best way to handle this would be using Actuate's IDAPI. This will give you all the tools to get the file uploaded and added to the iServer. You can expose the IDAPI interface in any number of ways including on the BIRT report itself or on a custom parameter request page.
