[rules-users] BRMS on Weblogic

Mon Jun 9 17:42:39 EDT 2008

Thanks Atif,

I did find some documentation on configuring new realms. In case you are
interested: http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs81/secmanage/realm.html#1186823

After you enabled security, did you have to do some special
configuration for the Rule Agent to have it access the package URLs
(under BRMS). 

With security enabled, won't the Rule Agent (or something on the client
side) need username and password to download pkg binaries from the URLs
pointing to deployed package snapshots?

Also did you enable SSL on Web Logic? If yes, I guess a key store would
have to be used on the client side.

Thanks once again.

Vikas

I did not have to create a new security realm. I added users/group in
default 'myrealm'. I have not tried using external LDAP. Weblogic
documentataion/user list might be helpful in this regard.

Atif,

Thanks a lot. That was very helpful. I have a couple of questions
though.

Did you have to create or configure a security realm? Weblogic has a
security realm called "myrealm" configured by default. Do you know if
the UsernamePasswordLoginModule uses "myrealm" by default?

I need to use an external LDAP (and not the one build in with Weblogic
server ). I guess I would have to configure a new realm and providers.
Do you know what needs to be done to have the
UsernamePasswordLoginModule use the new realm (and hence the external
LDAP).

Thanks again for your help.

Vikas

I posted the instructions in this blog.

Paul,

I was able to run BRMS on Weblogic. Looks like the Weblogic Workspace
IDE was creating some jar conflicts. When I created a domain, I selected
the option to configure it for Workspace also. 

After trying many different things (and getting thoroughly frustrated
:-) ), I created a new domain and configured it just for the Weblogic
server. Put the right JSF jars in domain lib and deployed BRMS war from
the console and it started up fine.

I have some exceptions related to DB2 Persistence Manager, but the
application is running.

Thanks for your help.

BTW, have you ever configured and used a Weblogic JAAS module with BRMS.

Thanks,

Vikas

Vikas,

I've always used Sun's JVM; mainly out of habit and one less thing to
investigate if things go wrong. It's worth trying Sun's in this case if
you're using the JRocket JVM.

Can you look at the Seam source code to see what is causing the
NullPointerException at 
GWTToSeamAdapter.java line 67? I don't have the source to hand at the
moment. My guess is that there is an issue on the server somewhere (i.e.
some missing or conflicted libs) but have no more detailled wisdom :-(.

Thanks a lot for writing back.

Sorry if that didn't come across right. That page did help a lot. I
followed the instructions on that page. That fixed the JSF related
exceptions that I was initially getting. But then I got that other
NullPointerException whose stack trace that I listed in my last email.
That's the only exception that I see in the log. And The BRMS shows me
an error message and then doesn't display the login page.

And I did bring in the JSF dependencies. I still get the same exception.

Your Wiki page is very good. I just am getting an exception that I am
unable to find a solution for. 

Do you know if it matters whether I use the JRocket JVM or Sun's JVM in
the Weblogic server ?

Also, did you get a chance to look at this
http://www.seamframework.org/Community/GWTRPCCallFails

I would appreciate any other input that you give.

Regards,

Vikas

Just so that I can update the page, when you say 'that didn't help' can
you tell me what problems you are seeing / what you feel is missing?

I'm guessing that you've already seen the page
http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/JBRMSjsfdependencies - did it help you at
all?

Regards

Hi All,

I'm trying to run BRMS 4.0.7 on Weblogic 9.2.0.0. It won't run and I'm
getting the exception listed below.

I looked at the Drools Wiki entry :
http://www.firstpartners.net/kb/index.php/JBoss_Drools_BRMS_on_Weblogic

That didn't help.

I also found something about this exception at Seam's website:
http://www.seamframework.org/Community/GWTRPCCallFails

As per the instructions mentioned in the above website, I brought the
jboss-seam-remoting.jar into my lib directory, but that didn't help.

Does anybody have any idea? Has anybody been able to successfully run
BRMS on Weblogic ?

Thanks,
Vikas
