Enable debugging in remote weblogic for ADF and Webcenter Applications

Hi All,

In my previous post of Debugging taskflow in webcenter spaces , I mention about setting java option in startManagedWebLogic.sh or startWeblogic.cmd .But you can do same thing in more easier way. I will tell about debug flag of weblogic today.

Best way to enable debug flag in WebLogic Server is to use weblogic console. This is done in:

Environment–>Servers–>>–>Debug
Select the required flags and click on Enable/Disable.

Enable the level of debug you need, e.g.: security, servlet, jdbc.This change does not require weblogic Server Restart.

You need Make sure the severity is set to debug in weblogic console:

Environment > Servers > MyServer > Logging >Advanced > Minimum severity to log: Debug
This change requires server restart.

You can also do by follow way as well-

Setting Up setDomainEnv.cmd
Near the top of your file add the following line to enable debugging.

echo ——————————————————————
echo Setting Debug to true
set debugFlag=true
echo ——————————————————————

Locate the following line locate further down the file and make a note of the port number.You can change the default port number as well.

rem set the port number
if “%DEBUG_PORT%”==”” (
set DEBUG_PORT=8453
)

So , if you are working on ADF and Webcenter application , follow this approach to accomplish this task.You should also make connection from jdeveloper
to remote/standalone weblogic server as well.

Following Debug flags will help you debug different issues in Oracle Weblogic Server :

Increase file upload size in webcenter spaces application

Requirement – To increase the maximum file upload size in WebCenter Spaces
Implementation – In my spaces application, we are not able to upload file size more than 2 MB. Requirement to upload upto 20MB. WebCenter Spaces PS4 should be setup to allow uploads up to 2Gb.After digging a littler found this

Those are the steps to change the default “max-filesize” to your requirement.For this you need to export metadata for application.Check out my previous blog entry on Change metadata in MDS/ Metadata command for weblogic.

->Find webcenter wlst.sh or wlst.cmd and runit.
->Connect to admin server with this command:

connect(‘weblogic’,’pwd’,’t3://:7001′)

->Now export the metadata that defines the “uploadedFileMaxDiskSpace” parameter.

exportMetadata(application=’webcenter’,server=’WC_Spaces’,toLocation=’/home/oracle’,
docs=’/oracle/webcenter/webcenterapp/metadata/webcenter-config.xml’)

-> Modify the file “webcenter-config.xml” and locate the line with this parameter.

20480

-> Save the file and proceed to the upload, reconnect to wlst.sh and Connect again to admin server

connect(‘weblogic’,’pwd’,’t3://:7001′)

-> Execute the upload command:

importMetadata(application=’webcenter’,server=’WC_Spaces’,fromLocation=’/home/oracle’,
docs=’/oracle/webcenter/webcenterapp/metadata/webcenter-config.xml’)

-> Restart WC_Spaces managed server .

That’s it.Now you can upload upto 20 MB. Change the requirement according to your specification.

– Oracle ADF Business Components REST Services with Oracle Mobile Application Framework
– Provisioning Oracle Fusion Middleware Environments with Chef and Puppet by Edwin Biemond
– A Hybrid of Responsive and Adaptive Designin webcenter portal
– Bootcamp on Developing Web and Mobile Dashboards with Oracle ADF by Frank

Its an great event to meet oracle champs in ADF/webcenter/SOA.As usual, it was fun to catch up with the members of my Oracle developer community, my ODTUG buddies and fellow ACEs. Cloud was definitely the hot topic on everyone’s mind this year, especially because Oracle announced their upcoming Oracle Mobile Cloud Services and released their Oracle Developer Cloud Service to production a few weeks before the conference.

The most interesting topic for me was the upcoming Oracle Mobile Cloud Service. This solution includes everything a development team will need to build mobile backends from any datasource or enterprise system. The Mobile Cloud Service can insulate Mobile Developers from complex infrastructure while allowing them to focus on creating killer apps. Oracle Mobile Cloud Service provides built-ins for push notifications, object storage, user management, analytics and an API designer and catalog.

Another cool thing released by Oracle was the Atla UI. These are a set of pre-built design patterns for building modern applications for multiple channels with a focus on user experience not only user interface. With mobile becoming everyone’s primary way of accessing information users are beginning to demand better user interfaces. In response to this, Oracle developed Alta UI to allow developers to create simple and modern UIs across web-based and mobile applications. Alta UI includes a new skin and samples to demonstrate how to make UIs like the ones Oracle has created for their own modern cloud based interfaces. You can see an example of the Oracle Atla UI style in this demo of Forms running on from an Oracle Mobile Framework with Alta UI Style:

Even with all this cool technology, I think the highlight for me had to be the ADF EMG / MAF / Oracle Forms developers meet-up on Tuesday night sponsored by ODTUG.There were attendees from all over the world and it was amazing to see many new faces .

I’d like to give big THANK YOU to the Oracle ACE program for ACE dinner.I hope everyone enjoyed as much I did.Hopefully I can attend next year too.

Overall

ADF- New version can come mid of next year with some more amazing features. This year they launch new Alta UI.Saw demo with product team.Look really good.
Webcenter Portal – Real support for Webcenter content folders. No big update as , I was expecting.New version can expect next year with more responsiveness in Webcenter portal with really amazing new features.
Webcenter content– Oracle Documents Cloud Service is the future.

Cheers
Vinay
