Sun ONE App Server 7 I downloaded and installed the Sun ONE App Server 7 this morning (on WinXP). Install was about 100 times easier than they used to be. I actually became an expert at installing iPlanet because they asked you so many damn questions, and answering one wrong could screw up your whole installation. I must've installed iPlanet 2.1-6 over 200 times! Good to see that almost anyone can do it now. My first test was to see if the struts-example app ran properly. I'm happy to report it did - with no errors visible on the UI. This is the first Sun app server release that this is possible on. Here's what I had to do in the past to get Struts running on iPlanet. I did see two errors in the log file while running Struts though:

WARNING: Error: JAXP SAXParser property not recognized: 
http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxp/properties/schemaLanguage

and

INFO: Processing a 'POST' for path '/saveSubscription'
SEVERE: Database save
java.security.AccessControlException: access denied 
(java.io.FilePermission D:\Tools\Sun\AppServer7\domains\domain1\server1\
applications\j2ee-modules\struts-example_1\WEB-INF\database.xml.old 
delete)

I'm sure both of these could be easily fixed with a little digging. The admin UI is much better - now an HTML UI rather than a Swing UI - appears to be powered by JATO. Deploying was super-simple, browse for WAR file, click upload. I especially like the option to pre-compile all the JSPs.

In other news, I attemted to use an Atomz (free) search engine last night to index this site, and it appears I have too much to use the free (500 page) service. I might try it anyway, but here's my stats:

Your site is larger than the index size limits that our Express product allows.
...
It took 1 hour to crawl 2324 pages and index 510 pages containing 448497 words for a total of 52432830 bytes. 6112 word endings, 0 synonyms, and 3350 sound-alike words were included in the index.
