How to make your Jrails application run in Glassfish v2

  1. Using Netbeans 6.0, Create a Rails application WITHOUT support for WAR deployment.
  2. Glassfish will use the "production" part of database.yml, so make sure you have a valid configuration there.
  3. Install the goldspike plugin (script/plugin install http://jruby-extras.rubyforge.org/svn/trunk/rails-integration/plugins/goldspike)
  4. In Netbeans, refresh the rake tasks.
  5. Add your dependent gems in the war.rb file located in config folder (see http://wiki.jruby.org/wiki/Goldspike for more instructions on how to do that). Basically is something like:
    add_gem 'activerecord-jdbcpostgresql-adapter' add_gem 'fastercsv'
  6. run rake->war->standalone->create from the menu.
  7. copy and paste the generated war file (should be in the app's root folder) into the autodeploy folder of you glassfish domain's (domains/yourdomain) folder.
  8. start your glassfish server.
  9. Navigate to your application, e.g.: http://localhost:8080/finances/categories/list.

The following Powershell script can be used to send an email alert when a file is missing from a folder or it is the same file from a previous check: $path_mask = "yourfile_*.txt" $previous_file_store = "lastfileread.txt" $script_name = "File Check" ###### Functions ########## Function EMailLog($subject, $message) {    $emailTo = "juanito@yourserver.com"    $emailFrom = "alert@yourserver.com"    $smtpserver="smtp.yourserver.com"       $smtp=new-object Net.Mail.SmtpClient($smtpServer)    $smtp.Send($emailFrom, $emailTo, $subject, $message) } Try {    #get files that match the mask    $curr_file = dir $path_mask |  select name    if ($curr_file.count -gt 0)    {        #file found        #check if the file is different from the previous file read        $previous_file = Get-Content $previous_file_store        $curr_file_name = $curr_file.Item(0).Name        if ($

Power Automate: SFTP action "Test connection failed"

When I added an SFTP create file action to my Power Automate flow ( https://flow.microsoft.com ) , I got the following error in the action step, within the designer: "Test connection failed" To troubleshoot the Power Automate connection, I had to: go the Power Automate portal then "Data"->"Connections"  the sftp connection was there, I clicked on the ellipsis, and entered the connection info It turns out, that screen provides more details about the connection error. In my case, it was complaining that "SSH host key finger-print xxx format is not supported. It must be in 'MD5' format". I had provided the sha fingerprint that WinScp shows. Instead, I needed to use the MD5 version of the fingerprint. To get that, I had to run in command line (I was in a folder that had openssh in it): ssh -o FingerprintHash=md5 mysftpsite.com To get the fingerprint in MD5 format. I took the string (without the "MD5:" part of the string) and put

How to use Windows SSO with OpenXava

One of the nice things about the .NET web environment is the dead easy way to implement Single Sign On in your web apps through Active Directory authentication. In the Java world there are multiple alternatives to use Windows’ Single Sign On with Java based web apps. One of those alternatives is Waffle . Waffle allows your Java web app to authenticate against Active Directory groups (and users). The only caveat is that your web server needs to be running in Windows, which kind of makes sense. In this article, you will learn the steps required to have your OpenXava web application use Waffle to authenticate your Windows users. The first step is to download Waffle from their site and then copy the JAR files outlined in https://github.com/dblock/waffle/blob/master/Docs/tomcat/TomcatSingleSignOnValve.md to the OpenXava’s tomcat server. In your OpenXava project, create servlets.xml in the Web-inf, containing the following: <!-- the role name (the domain gorup) must be e
