Problem during websphere application server installation

[Steve Heldebaume]

Hi,
Problem of WAS installation :
After the installation, i reboot my machine and i want to start the IBM WAS
service to test if the installation was OK. Problem : no IBM WAS service in
the list !!! Why ??
I tried with the adminserver.bat file to start the adminserver, no more
result, but this error message :

I'm using Websphere Application Server Advanced Edition v3.5 with Oracle
v8.1.7 (I have downloaded the FiwPack 5 to support this oracle version but
not installed it because the first installation is KO)
What is the problem ???
Thanks in advance
Steve

[Ken Hygh]

Steve,
No WAS service in the list means you didn't install while logged in to
Windows with a userid with Admininstrator privileges. Your failure
message below means that your URI to connect to Oracle is incorrect, or
Oracle is down, or there's a firewall blocking traffic between your
application server box and the Oracle box.

Ken

[Steve Heldebaume]

Hi Ken,
I have installed WAS with administrator privilege ! The Uri seems to be
good, and Oracle is well started...
One Question :
- Must i create the database used for the repository (orcl) before install
WAS or will it WAS who create it alone ???
Thanks for your answer

Hello Steve,

The Oracle SID that you specify in the JDBC URL during WAS install and ejsadmin
user and password must already exist. If using DB2, then WAS install creates a
local database by calling createdb2.bat. If your DB2 server is remote, then you
must create the WAS repository manually.

For both DB2 and Oracle, the repository will only be populated when the WAS
Adminserver is started (with setting install.initial.config=true in admin.config
file).

See the WAS V3.5 InfoCenter here:
http://www-4.ibm.com/software/webservers/appserv/doc/v35/ae/infocenter/was/win_adv_ihs_oracle.pdf

Hope this helps,
Mark

[Ken Hygh]

Steve,
Is this AE or AEs? AEs doesn't get installed as a service.
Ken

[Steve Heldebaume]

Thanks for your help Mark
I have installed WAS correctly, but the service is still not present in the
list.
But i can start it (via adminserver.bat)... Do you know what is the problem
??
Now i have another problem :
When i want access the ejbs deployed in WAS, exception :
"Impossible to obtain EJB metadatas. Exception : java.rmi.MarshalException:
CORBA MARSHAL 0 No; nested exception is:
org.omg.CORBA.MARSHAL: Unable to read value from underlying bridge : or
code: 0 completed: No "
The application server is started, the EJB container too
Where is the problem ??
Plzzz help
Steve

Steve,
Not much to go on here, but I suspect that you're accessing your EJBs
from a stand-alone client, that is not using the JDK that comes with
WebSphere. It needs to.

Ken

[Steve Heldebaume]

The client uses jdk 1.3.1_01
The jdk with Websphere Application Server is jdk 1.2.2
Exception when i look up for my EJBs :
"javax.naming.NamingException: Error during resolve. Root exception is

Guess I guessed right. The client _must_ use the JDK that comes with
WebSphere.
Ken

[Steve Heldebaume]

If i use jdk1.2.2 on the client side, another error at the execution :

Steve,
Again, this indicates that WebSphere's JDK is not being used. Some of
the websphere fixes were to the ORB, inside the JDK.

I'm using the same jdk version (1.2.2) both on the client and server !!
I don't know what is this exception...

Steve,
I don't know how to be clearer. Same version != same JDK. Use IBM's JDK
that ships with WebSphere.

I have installed the WebSPhere jdk on the client side, so it's the same...

Hmmm...are you sure that it's the one you're executing? Java (not IBM's)
put the 1.2 JDK in c:\winnt, which means it's usually the one executed.
