Configure Jrebel with remote server

After 3 hours turning around over many examples, finally I’ve configured Jrebel with remote webpshere portal.
This is my step by step configuration guide:

-) Step 1 : download the client from this url :

https://zeroturnaround.com/software/jrebel/download/prev-releases/

-) Step 2 : copy and unpack downloaded file on the remote server (I usually use: C:\IBM\jrebel\)

-) Step 3 : Activate client using a valid licence (I’ve used activate script in client’s bin directory)

-) Step 4 : Generate bootstrap file using this command (Don’t forget to use websphere portal jvm ):

cd C:\IBM\jrebel

C:\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\java\jre\bin\java -jar jrebel.jar

-) Step 5 : Copy jrebel-bootstrap.jar from [userHome]/.jrebel to C:\IBM\jrebel\

-) Step 6 : Add jrebel parameter to websphere portal jvm (if you don’t know how visit this : http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21417365) :

-Xshareclasses:none -Xbootclasspath/p:C:\IBM\jrebel\jrebel-bootstrap.jar;C:\IBM\jrebel\jrebel.jar -Drebel.remoting_plugin=true 

finally my configuration seems like this:

-Xshareclasses:none -Xbootclasspath/p:C:\IBM\jrebel\jrebel-bootstrap.jar;C:\IBM\jrebel\jrebel.jar -Drebel.remoting_plugin=true ${WPS_JVM_ARGUMENTS_EXT} -Dderby.system.home=${USER_INSTALL_ROOT}/PortalServer/derby -Dibm.stream.nio=true -Djava.io.tmpdir=${WAS_TEMP_DIR} -Xdump:stack:events=allocation,filter=#10m -Xgcpolicy:gencon -verbose:gc -Xverbosegclog:${SERVER_LOG_ROOT}/verbosegc.%Y%m%d.%H%M%S.%pid.txt,20,10000

-) Step 7 : Finally don’t foget generate password using this command:

cd C:\IBM\jrebel

C:\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\java\jre\bin\java -jar jrebel.jar -set-remote-password password

How to setup minimal Subversion Server.

Easy Svn Install without Ldap under Open Suse:

1 – zypper Install svn

2 – zypper install apache2

3 – Create Repository

svnadmin -create /var/www/svn1/

4 – Create passwd

htpasswd -c “/etc/subversion/passwd” dev   —> Insert password

5 – Apache Config

################################################Svn Config

Rewrite_mod and missed files

How to replace missed files using mod_rewrite.

Here my mod_rewrite rule to check and replace missed image with NotAv.jpg icon.

#Start rewrite Engine
RewriteEngine on

#if /var/www/ “Requested file name” is not equal to (f)inded
RewriteCond /var/www%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

#then rewrite all file in /public not finded with NotAv.jpg image
RewriteRule ^/public/.*$ /public/images/NotAv.jpg [PT]

#Log directives.
RewriteLog rewrite.log
RewriteLogLevel 1

Apache Http WebDav Configurations

Here a example of base configuration for Apache Http and WebDav:

1) First of All you have to create a .htaccess file:
[ApacheRoot]/bin/htpasswd -c /usr/local/apache2/.htpasswd username

2) Create an include in your httpd.con (I prefer to create a folder and include all *.conf file) :
Include conf/include/*.conf

3) create a dav.conf file and put it in the include dir.
####      dav.conf
#Loading Mudels
LoadModule dav_module                     modules/mod_dav.so
LoadModule dav_fs_module                  modules/mod_dav_fs.so

#Dav lck and timeout
DavLockDB /var/lock/dav/DavLock
DAVMinTimeout 600

#WebDav Virtual host enabled
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName dav.your.domain
Alias /dav /var/www/dav
<Location /dav>
AuthType Basic
DAV On
AuthName “WebDAV”
AuthUserFile “/usr/local/apache2/.htpasswd”
Options None
Require user username
</Location>
<Location />
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from all
</Location>
</VirtualHost>
4) Restart your Apache.

5) Now you should connect with a WebDav Client.
