I don't know if this has been resolved or not but, my experience is

1. centos 6.2 on a rackspace installation and
2. centos 6.3 on a mac mini in the office for preliminary deployment

I had every issue that I have seen here, but there was light (ya veedel svyet)!!!

both of these links helped!!

http://wiki.wocommunity.org/display/documentation/Installing+a+deployment+environment+on+RedHat,+CentOS+or+Amazon+Linux

http://www.mrxinu.com/2013/06/07/custom-selinux-port-access/

I started by downloading the distro. installing it and using Yum for all updates and install of java, postgresql, apache. (I left out fonts as I convert or create what I need and install them with the application. I used the wocommunity rpms for webobjects.

SELinux and the firewall were the things that bit me both times. Personally, I would experiment with a mini and download the distro clean. Shut off the firewall and SELinux.

Better: buy VMWare Fusion and play with CentOS in a VM.


I spent no more than 2.5 hours (maybe three) where most of it was waiting for things to download and install. If you like I will disk image my mac mini install for you.

Hi gang, I know it is not a matter of it, but a rather of when. Thus, when one of us gets such a CentOS 6.2 WO template working, could we make such a thing for the cloud distributers, like TurnKey Linux and their competitors? We will thank ye giants properly, when we can make to the same tavern to buy you a pint. Until then, I hope that an email word of gratitude will do.

Hi Chuck, Tim, Yes, the apps really don't start. I triple checked permissions and only for testing set all of the contents of /opr/local and opt/Library to 777.

Do you recommend a way to debug when and if SpawnOfWotaskd.sh is called by wotaskd? The point is that nothing is written to SpawnOfWotaskd.log also.

here its is my SpawnOfWotaskd.sh (inside wotaskd.woa/Contents/Resources/

#$@ 1>/dev/null 2>&1 &
LOG=/opt/Library/WebObjects/Logs/SpawnOfWotaskd.log
echo "************" >>${LOG}
echo "date: `date`" >>${LOG}
echo "args: $@" >>${LOG}
$@ 1>>${LOG} 2>&1 &

I already set the /etc/WebObjects/Properties . Must I specify this path in any config file? Is there any way to debug if these hosts information is being used? I tried to start the wotaskd with -log4j.logger.er.extensions.fixes.ERSharedEOLoader DEBUG to have some clues but couln't get it...

My /etc/hosts is set also with the IP , like this:
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs # that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1		PROXY-MO-IDEIAS002 localhost.localdomain localhost
::1		localhost6.localdomain6 localhost 6
10.128.132.97		PROXY-MO-IDEIAS002

All the other things seems to run fine: SiteConfig.xml propagated fine in apps servers; WOConfig.xml saved correctly in proxy server; communication betwwen proxy and apps servers seems OK weel by the logs of JavaMonitor and wotaskd...

Thank you again for your help!

Do the apps really not start, or is it that JavaMonitor and wotaskd can't see them? If they are really not starting, look at SpawnOfWotaskd.sh. If they do start, look at the WOHost settings all around. Do the IP address have DNS names? Do they resolve in reverse correctly?

Hi Tim,

I am afraid I am suffering exactly the same problem you had: my apps don't initiate. (i posted a description of the problem in a recent post and it really seems exactly the same problem you had). Could you solve it? Hope so! :-)

Cheers.

So, what do you make of the thing I raised about SpawnOfWotaskd.sh?
Is what I suggested about the LOG path possible?

It has been a while since I have done that, but I think it just does not log. You could test that... :-)

Very scared. :-) But I'll do it.

This is sounding less painful now.  :-)

Check the WO configuration for Apache:

# Host List Configuration
# wotaskd is started automatically on supported platforms, # so this is the default mode. # The apache module gets its configuration from the wotaskds # listed on the configuration line # For multiple hosts:
# WebObjectsConfig
http://<name-of-a-host>:<port-on-a-host>,http://<name-of-another-
host>
:<port-on-a-host> <interval>
# For localhost:
WebObjectsConfig http://localhost:1085 10


Does that host name match what you used in WOHost?

The app runs now but I get the dreaded "The requested application was not found on this server."

<for discussion - possible cause of the launch issue> SpawnOfWotaskd.sh has this:

# Log messages will be written to:
LOG=/Library/WebObjects/Logs

That path does not exist on CentOS. The script tries to log to that path when /tmp/logWebObjects exists. It will exist when someone is trying to solve problems. Is there any chance that when /tmp/logWebObjects exists, and Spawn tries to write to the path (and
can't) there could be a failure launching the app?

I changed LOG assignment to /opt/Local/Library/WebObjects/Logs in the script and now the app launches.
</for discussion>

So, now I have to figure out why "The requested application was not found on this server." This feels more like home toto.

now on a first name basis with Spawn,

Honestly, I've tried numerous different things in /etc/hosts.
Currently,this is what I have in there:

127.0.0.1   localhost localhost.localdomain
<IP>   <hostname>.local	<hostname>

The loopback entries are pretty much the default I think. I really appreciate all the advice - it's got to be something close.

Hi Tim,

what do you have in /etc/hosts ?

I had to put:

127.0.0.1 localhost
ipaddress hostname

On a Centos 6.4 i had to fix that before being able to make an app launch via wotaskd, regardless of what i put in the propertiesŠ

Have you tried disabling SElinux? You can do it temporarily by
issuing:

And then restart your perforce in fences isms.

Hoping someone can nudge me toward whatever is keeping my app from running. I have never had so much difficulty getting a deployment going. The main symptom I'm seeing right now is that my app simply will not complete a launch from JavaMonitor. The On/Off image just flicks up and down until a death is logged.
Nothing meaningful is logged to /tmp/WebObjects.log.

Every particular I can think of:

1. Linode, Centos 6.2
2. used the wocommunity rpms to install wo bits 3. WOHost deliberately set to the hostname in wotaskd, JavaMonitor, and app Properties 4. forward/reverse dns working properly with hostname 5. wotaskd config can be reached at http://<hostname>:1085 6. JavaMonitor is running and can be reached. 7. App instance is set to log to /opt/Local/Library/WebObjects/Logs - nothing is written to the log when trying to launch the app 8. WebObjectsAlias /apps/WebObjects 9. mod_WebObjects loading before mod_rewrite 10. from my main apache conf Alias /WebObjects "/var/www/html/WebObjects" <Directory "/var/www/html/WebObjects"> AllowOverride All Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory>


<LocationMatch /apps/WebObjects/.*> Order allow,deny Allow from all </LocationMatch>

11. from setting up linux on the wiki, I created /etc/WebObjects/Properties -> er.extensions.WOHostUtilities.localhostips=(<IP Address>) That suggestion is for addressing the symptom I'm experiencing.

12. all apps have appserver/appserveradm ownership

Anyone have any ideas they can throw my way?  Please. :-)
