Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Tomcat Wiki" for change notification.
The following page has been changed by JeanFredericClere: http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/TomcatTrackUs09_Sessions ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Presentation â 60 minutes Description - Have you ever wanted to to do more than just download Tomcat and install some web applications? Do you want to learn more about Tomcat internals and how everything fits together? Do you want to be able to apply patches for bugs to your Tomcat installation without having to wait for the next release? If you answered yes to any of the above questions then this presentation is for you. Starting with how the Tomcat subversion repository is structured, this presentation will show you how to build each of the major Tomcat versions from source, how to use your local build to generate binary patches for specific bugs and how to extend Tomcat functionality for your environment. After an overview of the Tomcat request processing architecture, a request will be examined as it passes through Tomcat using remote debugging. Key classes and decision points will be highlighted to provide attendees with potential starting points when debugging their own issues. To finish the presentation, a nd to give a practical example of how the knowledge gained may be put to use, a current bug will be examined, the root cause identified and a patch to fix it generated. + Have you ever wanted to to do more than just download Tomcat and install some web applications?

He first got involved in the development of Tomcat when he needed better control over the SSL configuration than was available at the time. After fixing that first bug, he started working his way through the remaining Tomcat bugs and is still going. Along the way Mark has become a Tomcat committer and PMC member, volunteered to be the Tomcat 4 release manager, created the Tomcat security pages, become a member of the ASF and joined the Apache Security Committee. He also helps maintain the ASF's Bugzilla instances. Mark has a MEng in Electronic and Electrical Engineering from the University of Birmingham, UK and is currently a Senior Software Engineer with the Covalent Products Division of SpringSource. ************************************************************************** @@ -26, +26 @@ Presentation â 60 minutes Description - Provisioning open source software in large server farms can prove to be a real challenge. A lot of software products, Apache Tomcat included, don't come with any tools or frameworks to manage this process. In this session we will dig into the undocumented possibilities that Apache Tomcat offers that makes Apache Tomcat one of the most flexible and powerful application servers in the world when it comes to provisioning. Tomcat offers very unique, but unfortunately undocumented capabilities in this respect. The presentation is focused on managing installations, configurations, upgrades and even downgrades in a way that little or even no configuration and migration efforts have to take place. Using this strategy will save your organization countless hours in managing your Apache Tomcat infrastructure. + Provisioning open source software in large server farms can prove to be a real challenge.

The session focuses on common causes and step-by-step instructions to resolve the problems. Some of the issues that are included in the presentation are: Application Server Hang & Core Dump, Java Virtual Machine and Memory issues (JVM Crash with no Core Dump, Out of Memory/Memory Leak), Too Many Open Files, JDBC-Database connectivity and Drivers issues, Load Balancing Issues(Apache & Tomcat connectivity with multiple hosts), SSL Trouble Shooting, High/Low CPU utilization, Slow application response, Server Core Dump, Irrecoverable Stack overflow and HTTP Session and Replication Failure. The troubleshooting methodology and solutions described in presentation will help system administrators and programmers to reduce the time spent on diagnosing problems to get to the root cause and to correct the issue. The presentation focuses on support patterns to resolve the most common problems, system behaviors, and issues. Instructions on how to resolve the issues will also be included in the presentation. The last part of the session focuses on best ways to monitor Java applications by using Open Source tools to get pre-notifications for some of the above issues. + The session describes trouble shooting methods and solutions of several commonly occurring issues of web applications deployed on Apache and Tomcat.
