Oracle Toplink - WAS 6.1 Support

551126Dec 11 2006 — edited Dec 11 2007
Hi all!

While migrating our Websphere Servers to Version 6.1 the question has come up if Toplink in its latest version supports this platform at all. Has anyone knowledge about this and can give me a hint?

The official Toplink-documentation is just talking about Websphere 6.0. Does someone know how to quickly verify this?

Thanks a lot,
Sven

TopLink 10.1.3.1 is certified on WebSphere 6.0 but not yet on 6.1. How much IBM changed WAS between 6.0 and 6.1 is obviously the critical question. A point release does not typically introduce significant differences. So even though 6.1 is not certified it doesn't mean that it won't work. It just means we haven't been able to confirmed it works yet. If you run in to any issues during your migration please post them to the forum and we'll try and help you through them.

Ok, thanks a lot for your answer and the announced support.
I will start migration and post my experiences.

WebSphere 6.0 runs on JDK 1.4 and WebSphere 6.1 runs on JDK 1.5. So there was somewhat significant change here, than one would expect from point release.

Is 10.1.3.1 officially supported with WebSphere 6.1?

The upcoming 10.1.3.3 patch-set release is being tested against WAS 6.1.

Does Oracle TopLink 10.1.3.1 is certified on any application server running on Java 5?

Does Oracle TopLink 10.1.3.1 is certified to run standalone on Java 5 without any application server?

We migrated our Persistence framework, which wraps TopLink, from 9.0.4.4 / WAS 5.0 to 10.1.3 / WAS 6.1. We have lots of unit-test cases, and we have not seen any issues with the move from WAS 5.0 to WAS 6.1 from unit-testing or application development.

One of our applications is on pilot with TopLink 10.1.3.1 / WAS 6.1. They reported an issue with 'java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax.xml.namespace.QName'. The application had to remove the QName.class from toplink.jar. The issue has been reported in this Forum. But I am not sure if the problem occurs in 9.0.4 / WAS 5.0. Also does TopLink plan to fix it?

Thanks.

Any updates to this support?
Is there a log of which issues you were able to fix and which ones are still outstanding?

We are trying to migrate from:
WAS5.1 on Solaris to WAS6.1 on zLinux

Our application uses Oracle Database and we use TopLink 10.1.3 for our OR duties.

We discovered major native connection leaks with our application in WAS6.1 on zLinux. The logs seem to show that connections are being obtained and utilized but are not being returned to the pool thus exhausting the free pool.

Any insights, thoughts, ideas, solutions would be appreciated.

WAS 6.1 has passed certification on 10.1.3.3 but this fact may not have been published yet.

We are using 10.1.3.3 on WAS 6.1 using Oracle 10g using JTA integration and we don't have your issue.
