JBossDeveloper

Sorry i didnt finish my last post :

with that weblogic.xml (see the upper post) and without datasource and transaction manager configuration,
i got this error when accessing the console at (http://localhost:7001/jbpm-console/sa/processes.jsf):
Error 403--Forbidden

Did it require some other configuration that i didn't think of ?

Thanks for helping,

Best thoughts,
O.M.

I didnt' have my project desktop right here...but i'll try:

The datasource is specified in you hibernate.cfg.xml. It should be JbpmDS out-of-the-box. In your weblogic-console you can add a datasource with the connection parameters to you db.

In hibernate.cfg.xml you can choose between CMT and JTA transactions. I think in standard case, JTA is used. There should be something like JBossTransactionManager set--> change the word JBoss to Weblogic.

I am not sure, cause i don't use the jbpm-console, but I suppose that you have to login to the console with an user specified in your db to access the processes

Okay
Thanks,
what are you using ?
Are you doing Jbpm with Struts on Weblogic ?

I've followed your instruction and it deployed successfully.
However i have some errors about JobExecutorThread and classes not found (like FacesServlet). I'm trying to resolve those.

I will keep you posted.

Thanks,

O.M.

I developed my own test-web-application (Just JSP-Servlets) for a better understanding of the jbpm-engine. I use JBoss as (my favourite) Applicationserver. Weblogic testing was just to show the applicationserver independence.

There are many topics about JobExecutionThread...think you should get enough information in the forum about that.

Hi,
i'm here again because i'm stuck in my deployment of the jbpm console.

In fact the deployment is ok but when trying to access http://10.98.54.53:7001/jbpm-console/sa/processes.jsf, i got this error Error 403--Forbidden.
Apparently i dont understand how authentication works on jbpm. I find this topic on dev2dev http://forums.bea.com/bea/message.jspa?messageID=400011356&tstart=0 but thats not really my problem (i think i will have to do that but after my current problem is solved).

During deployment i have this error "java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet" but i dont know if it is related to my problem of forbidden access.

During deployment i also have those pointers :

I think that the answer to my problems is here but i cant find it.

Please someone help me understand all this.

Best toughts,

O.M.

P.S. if you need to see some configuration files or want more informations feel free to ask.

jbpm does not do authentication. The AS (JBoss, WLS, Tomcat,... ) does. If you want to do assignments as well in jBPM it is better to have a shared database, how jboss AS does authentication, look at the login-config.xml (it is a database query)

Hi,
thanks for replying,

i'm not working on JBoss and cant find the equivalent of the login-config.xml for Weblogic 8.1.
Do you know it ?

I thought of putting that file on the directories of Weblogic but the classes that are referenced in the file are all org.jboss.* so i dont think thats a good idea.

Maybe i didnt understood how it works.
Can you please explain ?

Do you think thats the authentication configuration (lack of) that prevent me from accessing the index of the console ?

I have seen that other people had problems after trying to log in (because apparently they lacked database configuration) but that forbidden access doesnt seem to have been encountered before.

Have you any opinion/tips on this ?
It will be greatly appreciated.

O.M.

Hi everyone

Can someone developpe the part about the web.xml descriptor ?
http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=81337

Here it is said that the console can't work because of lack of implementation of jsf mechanisms on weblogic 8.

Can someone confirm ?

O.M.

Hi,
can someone tell me how to set up the authentication part for the jbpm console on weblogic 8.1 ?

I suspect that i need a realm with the informations of my oracle database.
But so far i didn't succed. Im' stuck at the part where i have to tell to weblogic using JBPM_ID_USER for authenticating users etc ... I cant find where to do that.

Can someone confirm that thats the good process ? and how to do it ?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

O.M.

This is a jBPM forum. The question you have is WLS specific, please ask in their forum, post the table definition there and the example query of the jboss login. They might help you further.

And yes, that is a good approach

Ok
Thanks Ronald.

See you soon.

Once you discover the "trick" in WLS, please make sure to build a wiki page here that describes the deployment steps.

Burr,

I think I can help out if this is really important to JBoss. Please contact Tom (Baeyens), I already had contact with him through mail discussing some 'free' (not as in beer ;-)) time I will have in the near future.
