Is there a way to find from weblogic admin console where the actual application is deployed on the file system
I tried clicking on the 'deployment' link - but it says it is loading - and never shows any details
I 'know' that the actual deployment is in a specific directory outside of weblogic - just want to know how I can confirm what I think I know - but need conclusive proof
The deployment is an EAR file
Thanks
When you login to the admin console you should be able to click 'Deployments' on the left. On that page you should see a list of all deployments on your managed server(s). Clicking on the deployment in question will take you to the deployment overview, which lists the path.
If it was deployed with the 'nostage' option, it will be somewhere that all of the servers it is deployed to can see. With the 'stage' option, it will be copied to each of the servers and reside in:
<domain home>/servers/<server name>
If you are having trouble even getting to the deployments page I would cycle the admin server.

I've a very simple application built in MVC4. This application allow the users to upload a file, and the application generates an output.
This app works great locally, but when I publish to azure (by right click -> publish), I get a less descriptive error. I've figured out that the error was because in the code, we accessed to a server relative path, and that is not possible in azure. So I've found a way to solve that in this link, that says that I should use LocalResource, rather than Server.MapPath. That make sense for me, but so far, I'm struggling with the suggested line.
LocalResource localResource = RoleEnvironment.GetLocalResource("DownloadedTemplates");
I'm not able to get it working, and also can't get a proper error. BTW I'm not sure how to enable the error log in azure :(
So, after going deeper in MSDN, I've seen that I should configure the Local Storage Resources, but as I've created a local MVC4 project, I can't find where I should configure this.
I need to be able to store a temporary file in the application (hosted in azure).
Did someone faced with this problem?
Anybody knows how to enable the Local Storage Resource in a project like that?
TIA!

Well, after struggling a while, I've ended up using Windows Azure Tools.
The steps:
Add a new project
Under Cloud category, select Windows Azure Cloud Service.Note that if you don't have this option, an option to install the needed SDK will be shown. Install it first.
Name it properly :)
New Windows Azure Cloud Service window will appear, select the role that fits your needs. In my case, I choose ASP.Net MVC4, and then removed it.Note that you can edit the name of the created role at the right.
In the Roles folder of your new project, select Add, and then Web Role Project in solution. Your project will be an option to add.
You can remove the other role in the folder, the web project created in step 4, and also the folder ending in Content (ie. WebRole1Content). Basically, you can remove the created assets, but the Azure Service, and link the service to your project.
You're almost done. Follow this link to configurate your local storage :)
Now you're done!
I am currently automating a process of moving Weblogic applications from old servers to new servers. I was unable to find a way to list the local application path for a deployed Weblogic application using WLST. The closest I found was:
appInfo=cmo.getAppDeployments()
for app in appInfo:
app_path = getPath(app)
print app_path
which will return something like:
InternalAppDeployments/test.war
This is not the directory I am looking for. I was wondering if someone had some input on how to retrieve the local directory for deployed Weblogic applications.
One easy way to do it with WLST:
ls('/AppDeployments') # this will list all of the deployments
cd('/AppDeployments/<app name>')
cmo.getAbsoluteSourcePath() # this will list the full path
Some things you could try instead of WLST:
Navigate to the /config/ folder and do a:
grep source-path config.xml
This will list the full path to the deployment IF that deployment was deployed with nostage staging-mode. Those paths will be relative if the deployment was deployed with stage for the staging-mode, it will be copied to each managed server that was targeted for the deployment and you will get relative paths like you mentioned above...
Those ear/war files likely live under:
<domain>/servers/<server name>/stage/<deployment name>
Or under
<domain>/sbgen
I developed a web application using java and mongodb. I used glassfish server.
I tried to deploy it on jelastic cloud service
I uploaded my war file. But when I run it after deploying the war file it shows a 404 error. Why? The project works fine on my machine.
There are at least few potential causes:
your app needs some resources which are not started by default (such as DerbyDB). In this case you can check GlassFish log file - server_instance.log for more details.
you are trying to get resources from wrong context, make sure you are trying to get it via correct context name
I have a Glassfish server in production which uses JDBC Realm for authentication.
It works well, but there is the need to change all the roles/groups. I developed a new version of the web application in a test environment changing glassfish-web.xml and web.xml to align them with the groups contained in the groups table on the db for test. Everything works flawlessly. So I moved the web application to the production environment and updated the content of the groups table on production db.
The authentication works well but roles are not recognized. How can I investigate this problem ? I checked the production db and the groups table is fine and can be accessed for select. Glassfish-web.xml and web.xml are the same of the test enviroment. This is a real brain teaser. The only explanation I can give is that Glassfish-web.xml is discarded for unknown reasons or the old file is still present and read from some other location than web-inf directory.
Thanks for any help

Explore your domain's folder under GlassFish root folder + \domains. If you are unsure what domain you are on, it is domain1 by default. Under this folder you should have a folder called applications. This folder contains the deployed version of all your applications, and it's the place where to check your application's Glassfish-web.xml configuration file.
Anyway, if you are having this kind of problems, a Clean & Build of your project, followed by a redeploy, usually works.
Im trying to work in my project, when I change files it changes the file inside the directory that I imported the projects into my workspace. But the changes aren't showing up on the server because the server is using the folder inside .metadata/webapps/myapp etc
what have I done wrong here?
Sounds like you're deploying to the integrated Tomcat server. The deployment is normally to the .metadata/.me_tcat/webapps/myapp folder. Is this what you meant? If not then I suggest you remove the deployment and then deploy again and let the deployment location default. The folder .metadata/.me_tcap is simply where the integrated Tomcat installation looks for applications when it starts up.
You can check the deployment location by looking in the servers view. Expand the integrated Tomcat server. The deployment location for your project is shown there.
The deployed location should be kept in synch with your code. If that's not happening, it may be that the changes you're making are the kind that require a redeployment. I'm not sure what the conditions are for propagating changes but I guess there might be some situations where changes can't be picked up automatically in this way. The changes should be picked up on a redeploy.
To check, create a new web project, which will create some default configuration and a default index.jsp file. Deploy this to the integrated Tomcat server. Now make a change in the index.jsp file and save it. Check if the change is made in the deployment location, or simply run the server and check that your new index.jsp gets displayed.
