WLSTException: Error occured while performing nmConnect

Connecting to Node Manager ...
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "<console>", line 1, in ?
  File "<iostream>", line 123, in nmConnect
  File "<iostream>", line 648, in raiseWLSTException
WLSTException: Error occured while performing nmConnect : Cannot connect to Node Manager. : Access to domain 'Domain' for user 'user' denied

The solution I have is:
find this file, under your Domain Directory:

locate nm_password.properties

cd to the correct path

then
mv nm_password.properties nm_password.properties.BAK

vi nm_password.properties

username=myAdminUserName
password=MyPassword

eg:
username=weblogic
password=welcome1

This will get encrypted. To force the encryption

use wlst.sh to connect to the Domain with the new credentials.

TablespaceFreeMB Prerequisite failure

RCU-6108:DB TablespaceFreeMB Prerequisite failure for: IDMTST_OIM
Current space is 35MB. It should be be greater than 50MB.

There are two solutions:
Set the tablespace to automatically increase in size, or increase the size.

First option:

ALTER DATABASE DATAFILE  AUTOEXTEND ON ;

Second Option:

ALTER TABLESPACE  ADD DATAFILE '' SIZE nG AUTOEXTEND ON MAXSIZE XXG;

#bearMan

Oracle Database TableSpace

View where the tablespaces are located:

select file_name from dba_data_files where tablespace_name='USERS';

View the tablespace size of a tablespace:

select sum(bytes/1024/1024/1024),sum(maxbytes/1024/1024/1024) from dba_data_files where tablespace_name='USERS';

View if the tablespace is auto extendable:

select AUTOEXTENSIBLE from dba_data_files where tablespace_name='USERS';

Explain the Database Table for Tablespace:

desc dba_data_files

OEL Apache SSL

Setting up SSL, with Apache.

On a redhad based distro, we will need

• apache (httpd)
• mod_ssl

Getting httpd and mod_ssl 

yum install httpd mod_ssl

Creating Self Signed Certificate

Run:

cd /var/www/; openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 3650 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout mysitename.key -out mysitename.crt
Generating a 2048 bit RSA private key

results:

writing new private key to 'mysitename.key'
-----
You are about to be asked to enter information that will be incorporated
into your certificate request.
What you are about to enter is what is called a Distinguished Name or a DN.
There are quite a few fields but you can leave some blank
For some fields there will be a default value,
If you enter '.', the field will be left blank.
-----
Country Name (2 letter code) [XX]:
State or Province Name (full name) []:
Locality Name (eg, city) [Default City]:
Organization Name (eg, company) [Default Company Ltd]:
Organizational Unit Name (eg, section) []:
Common Name (eg, your name or your server's hostname) []:
Email Address []:

Setting up Apache

if you dont know where your httpd.conf file is. 

locate httpd.conf

go to the directory, or edit the file.

vim /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

php_admin_value engine Off

    SSLEngine on
    SSLCertificateFile /var/www/mysitename.crt
    SSLCertificateKeyFile /var/www/mysitename.key
#    SSLCertificateChainFile /var/www/intermediate.crt #this is only used if you have a certificate chain




   RewriteEngine on
   ReWriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^443$
   RewriteRule ^/(.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [NC,R,L]

   RewriteEngine on

Something to try, Learn in the process

XSS Attacks is a real threat.

Here is a site you can learn to do it, and as a result, as a developer, understand the threat better.

Or If you are just interested in learning how it works, learn through a "tutorial".
