Ghattu's Technology Blog » 11g http://ghattus.com A blog about technology that I work on in my day to day job Thu, 03 Dec 2009 00:56:54 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 No WLST cachedir with python.cachedir.skip http://ghattus.com/2009/09/11/no-wlst-cachedir-with-python-cachedir-skip/ http://ghattus.com/2009/09/11/no-wlst-cachedir-with-python-cachedir-skip/#comments Fri, 11 Sep 2009 16:11:21 +0000 sghattu http://ghattus.com/?p=111 In one of my previous post I have talked about python.cachedir and how it may cause some errors during WLST/Jython initialization.
With WebLogic 11g Oracle has upgraded the Jython Version from 2.1 to 2.2 (see my post here), which opens up yet another way of getting rid of these errors. In fact you can get rid of the cachedir entirely by starting WLST with -Dpython.cachedir.skip=true, this will instruct Jython not to create the CacheDir.
I haven’t done extensive testing with this option but so far I haven’t seen any issues by not creating this cachedir.

For a brief description on what’s new with Jython 2.2 see my old post here.

It was a pretty informational session and I got to talk directly to Oracle management about some questions I had regarding Oracle’s Portal and JVM Strategies.Here are my takeaway’s.

  • WebLogic Server 10.3 MP1 is part of Fusion Middleware 11g.
  • WebLogic Portal is NOT part of the Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g. The portal product that is part of Fusion Middleware is Oracle WebCentre.
  • Oracle will continue to develop and innovate on WebLogic Portal and planning to release 11g version by the end of the year.
  • JRockit is the recommended JVM for Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g.
  • Oracle does not have any plans to merge Sun’s JVM and JRockit into one, both these JVM’s will be independent of each other.
  • JDeveloper is the recommeded IDE for all products in the Fusion Middleware suite.
  • Oh lastly, Enterprise Manager is the mother of all Managers and will be able to control the Universe.. :-) .

Well, my initial reaction was “Why would you want to do that????”. But after listening to his side of the story I did wondered if WebLogic 10.3 is supported on 1.4. His application was built around 5 years ago on WebLogic 8.1/JDK 1.4 and slowly every one in the team moved on to different things. Now due to EOL and other issues (see my post on JDK 1.4 and WebLogic 8.1 EOL) all the the applications co-hosted in the Datacenter would like to Upgrade and he is forced to upgrade also. With limited or no resources how can he pull off this upgrade with out any code changes? Well, lets wish him luck.

Checked with Oracle and offcially WebLogic 10.3 is NOT supported on either JDK 1.4 nor JDK 1.5.
