RE: problem with Catalog Manager webservice |
|
|
Looks like I solved the problem. It is happening because I have the
webservice configured as a virtual folder within the main website and the
website is not in it's own virtual folder. Hopefully this makes sense. So
my next question is this. Should the webservice be setup under their own
website with their own IPs? The files are in their own folders, but in IIS I
had their virtual folders nested within the main website.

You are correct / I agree the web service doe not use Pipeline components.
So why is it looking for them? As a test i copied the pipeline component it
was complaining about into the webservice's folder. It then complained about
not finding the next pipeline component configured in the web.config and so
on.....
so since this is happening something is not configured correctly. any ideas?
I've been following the steps as layed out in the CS2002 Starter site setup
guide since I based my site development on that. My setup has worked fine on
two prior servers following those steps. the difference now, is that I'm
dealing with domain level accounts and not local server accounts.

I'm setting up a new CS website, this happens to be our "Prod" environment.
We have the same site setup in a QA env and Dev env. The difference is
that
this new env is in it's own domain using AD with the database on it's own
server and two web servers..
I can't get the web services to work. When I try to either run the Catalog
Manager app (FP1) or navigate to the URL via the IE browser I get the same
error. The error doesn't make sense in the context of the web services as
far as I can tell.
What is happening is that it appears to be trying to load the CS context
stuff through the use of the website's web.config file. I get the
following
error:
Pipelines: The PCF file
'C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\website\website_CatalogWS\Pipelines\CCValidation.pcf'
does not exist

I know this is wrong, but as a test I copied the pipeline folder into the
webservices virtual folder and I can see a new error displayed telling it
can
not find another resource defined further down in the website's web.config
file.
Does anyone know what might be misconfigured? I've been successful
configuring CS2k2 when everything is on the one server so I can't figure
out
what might be different. Please help.

Ravi:
Could you explain your statement about CS not working with a load balancer?
Our env. 2 web servers, 1 DB server. We were planning to put a load balancer
in from of these web servers. When you say "not a load balancer" what do you
mean?
Thanks.

1. On the AD create an a/c eg: IUSR_MyDomain
2. On the AD create a group (security, global) IIS_WPG and assign
IUSR_MyDomain and your CS Service A/c to this
3. On SQL Server create a login & provide permissions on site_commerce &
DHW db's for this Domain\IIS_WPG group
4. On each of the CS Web Server, add Domain\IIS_WPG to the local IIS_WPG
group
5. Under DefaultAppPool (Identity Page) change to configurable and set the
a/c as DOMAIN\IUSR_MyDomain
6. Create another App Pool eg: CSAppPool and set the identity to
DOMAIN\Your CS Service A/c. Start It
7. Go to your Store equiv application and change the pool setting to CSApp
Pool.
Stop the Default Web Site, Stop all Application Pools. Start all App Pools
and then start the Default web site.

I only have the default pool, so it's configured under the defaultAppPool.
One problem I am having is where the setup guide says to configure the cs2k2
account as the account for the app pool. when I do this the website does not
function and the pool stops itself. So the only way i can get it to work is
by using the "Network Service" account.
I didn't create a group for the default pool. I did create an account
called IWAM_Domain acount and added it to the IIS_WPG group.
the error below is the only error logged.
I'm not convinced I have the IIS stuff setup correctly, but I don't see how
that is causing the problem. I would expect some kind of permission problem
rather than the web service looking for components it shouldn't need. i've
got to go live with this site next week and the web services are the only
pieces not working.
How do I tell what account the web service is trying to use? I don't see
where I tie the web services to an account to run under. I'm assuming it
runs under the account that runs the DefaultAppPool. which right now is the
"Network Service" account.

This group needs to be added to the IIS_WPG group? Our db configuration is
not the one massive DB each the db config is modeled after the
CS2002_startersite (indivdidual dbs for each area)
No the domain group does not have access/permissions to the databases.
No the domain group does not have access to the Windows\temp or the temp
ASP.NET folder.
I wouldn't think that end users would need those kinds of access. I've been
fllowing the setup guide for the starter site for the past setups and have
had success doing so. I followed them again as best I could translate them
to the new environment. I think there may be some small differences I'm
missing there.(in my translation between the two envs.)
At this point I'm willing to try anything.
please advise.

Both the catalogwebservice and the discountmanger web service behave the

Since this is part of another Dmain, also remember to AZAMAN.msc the

RE: problem with Catalog Manager webservice |
|
|
Ahh... that clears up things... in a typical deployment each application
under a commerce site is a folder under the root (default web). In your case
your main site is the root and other applications are folders under that.
In a typical deployment (eg: Retail2002 + FP1) the folders would look like
-default web site (web.config but no commerce modules, etc)
|
+ Retail2002 (web.config with CommerceModules, pipelines, caches, etc)
|
+ Retail2002BizDesk (global.asa...)
|
+ Retail2002B2B (web.config... separate application folders for
inventory, catalog, etc each with a different web.config and configured as
applications :))
|
+ CatalogWebService (web.config... but no pipelines, etc)
|
+ MarketingWebService (web.config... but no pipelines, etc)
If the above is the case (folder and not applications) then the web.config
of the application is the one in the application root which is why it was
running the pipelines section and failing. If the sub folder is an
application (under IIS) then it executes the local web.config.

RE: problem with Catalog Manager webservice |

Well, load balanced implies more that one physical system. I am under the
impression that CS Std Edn cannot be used on more that one system. It is my
understanding that Microsoft modified the std licensing policy to incorporate
hyper-threaded processors since they show up as two processors while
physically being one proc.
So if you're using CS Std Ed on a single proc machine with your SQL DB's on
one or more than one machines it is OK, but if you're loading CS on more that
one machine then (my understanding) you require Commerce Server Enterprise
Edition.
I suggest you call up your Microsoft rep and confirm licensing.

group
5. Under DefaultAppPool (Identity Page) change to configurable and set the
a/c as DOMAIN\IUSR_MyDomain
6. Create another App Pool eg: CSAppPool and set the identity to
DOMAIN\Your CS Service A/c. Start It
7. Go to your Store equiv application and change the pool setting to CSApp
Pool.
Stop the Default Web Site, Stop all Application Pools. Start all App Pools
and then start the Default web site.

I only have the default pool, so it's configured under the defaultAppPool.
One problem I am having is where the setup guide says to configure the cs2k2
account as the account for the app pool. when I do this the website does not
function and the pool stops itself. So the only way i can get it to work is
by using the "Network Service" account.
I didn't create a group for the default pool. I did create an account
called IWAM_Domain acount and added it to the IIS_WPG group.
the error below is the only error logged.
I'm not convinced I have the IIS stuff setup correctly, but I don't see how
that is causing the problem. I would expect some kind of permission problem
rather than the web service looking for components it shouldn't need. i've
got to go live with this site next week and the web services are the only
pieces not working.
How do I tell what account the web service is trying to use? I don't see
where I tie the web services to an account to run under. I'm assuming it
runs under the account that runs the DefaultAppPool. which right now is the
"Network Service" account.

your web services are running under which IIS 6.0 account Pool ?
Since you've two web servers & a SQL Backend.. have you created a Domain Web

Anything being logged in the Application event viewer ?

No the domain group does not have access/permissions to the databases.
No the domain group does not have access to the Windows\temp or the temp
ASP.NET folder.
I wouldn't think that end users would need those kinds of access. I've been
fllowing the setup guide for the starter site for the past setups and have
had success doing so. I followed them again as best I could translate them
to the new environment. I think there may be some small differences I'm
missing there.(in my translation between the two envs.)
At this point I'm willing to try anything.
please advise.

I know you'd have likely done all of these but a check wouldn't hurt :)

Both the catalogwebservice and the discountmanger web service behave the

Since this is part of another Dmain, also remember to AZAMAN.msc the

We have the same site setup in a QA env and Dev env. The difference is that
this new env is in it's own domain using AD with the database on it's own
server and two web servers..
I can't get the web services to work. When I try to either run the Catalog
Manager app (FP1) or navigate to the URL via the IE browser I get the same
error. The error doesn't make sense in the context of the web services as
far as I can tell.
What is happening is that it appears to be trying to load the CS context
stuff through the use of the website's web.config file. I get the following
error:

I know this is wrong, but as a test I copied the pipeline folder into the
webservices virtual folder and I can see a new error displayed telling it can
not find another resource defined further down in the website's web.config
file.
Does anyone know what might be misconfigured? I've been successful
configuring CS2k2 when everything is on the one server so I can't figure out
what might be different. Please help.

Re: problem with Catalog Manager webservice |

I too could be wrong, but I don't believe there's any issue with running CS
Std Edition in a web farm as long as you have licenses for each of the web
servers in the web farm. I have a client running CS Std Edition on a two
server web farm with Windows load balancing.
Are your web services running in virtual directories underneath your web
site and is that the way you have it working in QA and Dev? I started with
them configured that way and ran into the error you're seeing because in
ASP.NET a virtual application within a web site inherits the parent site's
web.config file, but the CS web.config file contains too many file path
specs that break down in lower level virtual directories. I've had no
success running any ASP.NET application as a virtual application within a CS
application. So I always run my web services under an Admin website separate
from the retail web site.

| Quote: | Well, load balanced implies more that one physical system. I am under the
impression that CS Std Edn cannot be used on more that one system. It is
my
understanding that Microsoft modified the std licensing policy to
incorporate
hyper-threaded processors since they show up as two processors while
physically being one proc.
So if you're using CS Std Ed on a single proc machine with your SQL DB's
on
one or more than one machines it is OK, but if you're loading CS on more
that
one machine then (my understanding) you require Commerce Server Enterprise
Edition.
I suggest you call up your Microsoft rep and confirm licensing.

Our env. 2 web servers, 1 DB server. We were planning to put a load

in from of these web servers. When you say "not a load balancer" what do
you
mean?
Thanks.

1. On the AD create an a/c eg: IUSR_MyDomain
2. On the AD create a group (security, global) IIS_WPG and assign

3. On SQL Server create a login & provide permissions on
site_commerce &
DHW db's for this Domain\IIS_WPG group
