Application Server

Middleware is where applications meet infrastructure. Here our consultants write about WebLogic, JBoss EAP, WildFly and Tomcat in real production environments: installing and clustering them, patching, deploying applications and finding out why something stopped working.

AEM Forms – No SSLMutualAuthProvider available

In the process of setting up the AEM Workbench to use 2-way-SSL, you will need at some point to use a Hybrid Domain and a specific Authentication Provider. Depending on the version of the AEM that you are using, this Authentication Provider might not be present and therefore you will never be able to set that up properly. In this…

AEM Forms – “2-way-SSL” Setup and Workbench configuration

In the past two years almost, I have been working with AEM (Adobe Experience Manager) Forms. The road taken by this project was full of problem because of security constraints that AEM has/had big trouble dealing with. In this blog, I will talk about one security aspect which brings some trouble: how to setup and use the “2-way-SSL” (I will…

Solr Sharding – Concepts & Methods

A few weeks ago, I published a series of blog on the Alfresco Clustering, including Solr Sharding. At that time, I planned to first explain what is really the Solr Sharding, what are the different concepts and methods around it. Unfortunately, I didn’t get the time to write this blog so I had to post the one related to Solr…

Documentum – Large documents in xPlore indexing

Documentum is using xPlore for the Full Text indexing/search processes. If you aren’t very familiar with how xPlore is working, you might want to know how it is possible to index large documents or you might be confused about some documents not being indexed (and therefore not searchable). In this blog, I will try to explain how xPlore can be… 

Alfresco – Share Clustering fail with ‘Ignored XML validation warning’

In a recent project on Alfresco, I had to setup a Clustering environment. It all went smoothly but I did face one single issue with the setup of the Clustering on the Alfresco Share layer. That’s something I never faced before and you will understand why below. Initially, to setup the Alfresco Share Clustering, I used the sample file packaged…

Alfresco Clustering – Solr6

In previous blogs, I talked about some basis and presented some possible architectures for Alfresco, I talked about the Clustering setup for the Alfresco Repository, the Alfresco Share and for ActiveMQ. I also setup an Apache HTTPD as a Load Balancer. In this one, I will talk about the last layer that I wanted to present, which is Solr and… 

Alfresco Clustering – Apache HTTPD as Load Balancer

In previous blogs, I talked about some basis and presented some possible architectures for Alfresco, I talked about the Clustering setup for the Alfresco Repository, the Alfresco Share and for ActiveMQ. In this one, I will talk about the Front-end layer, but in a very particular setup because it will also act as a Load Balancer. For an Alfresco solution,… 

Alfresco Clustering – ActiveMQ

In previous blogs, I talked about some basis and presented some possible architectures for Alfresco, I talked about the Clustering setup for the Alfresco Repository and the Alfresco Share. In this one, I will work on the ActiveMQ layer. I recently posted something related to the setup of ActiveMQ and some initial configuration. I will therefore extend this topic in… 

Alfresco Clustering – Share

In previous blogs, I talked about some basis and presented some possible architectures for Alfresco and I talked about the Clustering setup for the Alfresco Repository. In this one, I will work on the Alfresco Share layer. Therefore, if you are using another client like a CMIS/REST client or an ADF Application, it won’t work that way, but you might…
