IBM How to serve static files from both IBM HTTP Server and an application in WebSphere Application Server - United States TECHNOTE (FAQ) QUESTION How can I configure IBM HTTP Server (IHS), and the IBM web server Plug-in, and my web application running in WebSphere Application Server (WAS), to serve some of my stati...
b2da6f28d6d0d2c6d876309e0bc66471_1
On the other hand, fileServingEnabled="false" means NO static files will be served from the application in WAS. In this case, a wildcard will NOT be used in the plugin-cfg.xml file. Instead, there will be several URI entries matching the URL-Patterns from <servlet-mappings> in the web.xml, like "/myapp/servlet1" and "/...
b2da6f28d6d0d2c6d876309e0bc66471_2
ANSWER If you want to serve any static files (JPG, GIF, CSS, JS, etc) from your web application in WAS, you must use fileServingEnabled="true" in the ibm-web-ext.xmi file. That will cause the plug-in to use a wildcard entry for the context-root of your web application. For example, if the context-root is "myapp", then ...
b2da6f28d6d0d2c6d876309e0bc66471_3
2) In your web application, you will reference those files using relative references like "static/picture.jpg", or "static/mystyles.css". Those relative references will be interpreted as URLs like this: /myapp/static/picture.jpg /myapp/static/mystyles.css Keep in mind that there really is NOT any "static" subdirector...
b2da6f28d6d0d2c6d876309e0bc66471_4
To the user looking at the URL in the browser they will see this: /hostname/myapp/static/picture.jpg But, the file will really be served by IHS from here: /hostname/static/picture.jpg Here is another example: If you just want to match and serve *.gif files from IHS, use: RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} \.(gif)$ [NC] Rew...
b2da6f28d6d0d2c6d876309e0bc66471_5
So, by using the trick described above, some static files will be served from IHS, like: /hostname/myapp/static/picture.jpg But other static files will be served from the web application running in WAS, like: /hostname/myapp/images/sunset.jpg

IBM Unable to start Ping Probe by non-root user on AIX - United States Ping probe; non root; start; permissions TECHNOTE (TROUBLESHOOTING) THIS DOCUMENT APPLIES ONLY TO THE FOLLOWING LANGUAGE VERSION(S): English PROBLEM(ABSTRACT) Ping probe fails to start when the probe is installed and started by non-root user. ...
2b9664521f8d895f07380262c8704a7d_1
RESOLVING THE PROBLEM To enable non-root user to start the probe, you need to change the owner to root and permissions to setuid. And AIX ignores the LIBPATH setting when program runs as setuid root, so you also need to put either a copy of the required libraries, or a symbolic link to the required libraries in one of ...

Note: If there are newer modules of the required libraries, it's better to create a symbolic link to the newer module. e.g Run # ln -s /opt/IBM/netcool/platform/aix5/lib/libicui18n40.1.a rather than, # ln -s /opt/IBM/netcool/platform/aix5/lib/libicui18n40.a But, please note that it would be better to create the symbol...

41862f7c54a0fddb543dbf7be76c9a60_1
CAUSE The JCC driver throws the exception when data in a character column that it queries is not a valid string in the database code page. The invalid data could have been input to the database in the following ways: * By running an SQL statement which writes byte values to the database. For example: INSERT INTO ta...
41862f7c54a0fddb543dbf7be76c9a60_2
RESOLVING THE PROBLEM Update the invalid data with a valid UTF-8 character string. Alternatively, for JCC driver versions that support it you can set the JCC configuration property db2.jcc.charsetDecoderEncoder=3 so that instead of throwing an exception the JCC driver returns the Unicode REPLACEMENT CHARACTER (U+FFF...
41862f7c54a0fddb543dbf7be76c9a60_3
For example, suppose you have a Java program MyApp.java that executes an SQL query of a database column that contains a sequence of bytes that is not a valid string. When you run: java MyApp it throws an exception. But when you run: java -Ddb2.jcc.charsetDecoderEncoder=3 MyApp it returns the string with any invalid seq...
