Infrastructure at your Service
Some time ago, we were installing a Migration Center (from fmeAG) on a Windows Server and at the end of the installation, the service named Migration Center Job Server is configured and finally started. Unfortunately this didn’t go well and the start command wasn’t working at all. We were using a dedicated technical account (AD account) to do the installation and to run this service. This is the error we got: The error code…
Last year, we started to upgrade some Documentum Administrator from 7.2 to 7.3 and directly after, we started to see some NullPointerException on the log files. We are using DA 7.3 on some recent WebLogic Servers versions (12.1.3, 12.2.1.2). We usually deploy DA as a WAR file (so not exploded) with just the dfc.properties, keystores and logs outside of it. This is the kind of errors we started to see as soon as it was…
This blog will be the last of my series around the WebLogic SSO (how to enable logs, 403 N°1, 403 N°2) which I started some weeks ago. Several months ago on a newly built High Availability Environment (2 WebLogic Servers behind a Load Balancer), an application team was deploying their D2 Client as always. After the deployment, it appeared to the tester that the Single Sign-On was not working when using the SSO URL through…
Today is the second day of the Alfresco DevCon 2018 and therefore yes, it is already over, unfortunately. In this blog, I will be continuing my previous one with sessions I attended on the afternoon of the day-1 as well as day-2. There were too many interesting sessions and I don’t really have the time to talk about all of them… But if you are interested, all the sessions were recorded (as always) so wait…
Here we are, the Alfresco DevCon 2018 day-1 is over (well except for the social party)! It’s been already 2 years I attended my last Alfresco event (BeeCon 2016, first of its name (organized by the Order of the Bee)) because I wasn’t able to attend the second BeeCon (2017) since it happened on the exact dates of our internal dbi xChange event. Yesterday was the DevCon 2018 day-0 with the Hack-a-thon, the full day…
When playing with the AOS implementation, a colleague of mine faced an interesting issue where he just wasn’t able to move or rename any files or folders. The creation and deletion were working properly but he was unable to move or rename anything when using a Network Location or a Network Drive. This environment was freshly installed with a front-end (Apache HTTPD) setup in SSL so we worked together to find out what was the…
Earlier today, I posted another blog with almost the same title but the similarities stop here. The thing is that when you access your application, there aren’t much error codes possible so if there is an issue, it’s often the same generic message that is being displayed on the browser. To get some background on the issue that I will present below, we are usually setting up the WebLogic Server, enabling the SSO on the…
In a previous blog, I explained how it was possible to enable the SSO/Atn/Atz (SSO/Authentication/Authorization) debug logs in order to troubleshoot an issue. In this blog, I will show the logs generated by an issue that I had to deal with last month at one of our customers. This issue will probably not occur very often but it is a pretty funny one so I wanted to share it! So the issue I will talk…
Let’s say that you have an application deployed on a WebLogic Server and that the SSO/Atn/Atz (SSO/Authentication/Authorization) isn’t working or throwing a 4xx error code like ‘401 – Unauthorized’ or ‘403 – Forbidden’. How would you be able to know what is happening and how to solve it? Well the answer is always the same: enable debug logs, it is just a matter or choosing the right scope and choosing a way to do it…
When working with Documentum, you will most probably have to enable the DFC traces one day or another and then work with these traces to analyze them. The purpose of this blog is simply to show how the DFC traces can be enabled, which tools can be used to quickly process them and what are the limitations of such things. Enabling the DFC traces can be done very easily by updating the dfc.properties file of…
