If we change to Servlet 3.1 Tomcat 8 is required, cft. 
https://tomcat.apache.org/whichversion.html. 
We may update to 3.1 after this release is done (Turbine 4.1), as we still 
support Java 6, which Tomcat 8 stops to do. 
May be the following URL - valid in in Tomcat 6 and 7 - is sufficient: 
http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd. Does Eclipse throw an 
error  with this?
Otherwise please go ahead, thanks!
Best regards, Georg

Betreff:        Turbine webapp issues



Hi Georg,

A couple things I have noticed and these updates are in my sample 
turbine-flux app on github.

When creating a new project from the archetype (using the Maven wizard 
in eclipse), I have seen this issue pop up, and I have been fixing it 
manually for my projects.  Just wondering if this is something we can 
address in the archetype itself if you agree.

By default, the web.xml definition throws an error in Eclipse:

*Referenced file contains errors 
(
http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/jsc/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd
). 
*

I had updated my web.xml with this version instead (and it works with 
Tomcat 8.5.x as my local server runtime environment).

Java EE 7 Schema (April 30, 2013) 
http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/jsc/xml/ns/javaee/index.html

<web-app xmlns="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee";
   xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
   xsi:schemaLocation="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee
http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_3_1.xsd";
   version="3.1"
   metadata-complete="true">

The next issue I had was with Tomcat and getting JNDI to initialize. I 
created a META-INF/context.xml with the following definition:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<Context>
     <WatchedResource>WEB-INF/web.xml</WatchedResource>
<WatchedResource>${catalina.base}/conf/web.xml</WatchedResource>
     <Resource name="jdbc/turbine" global="jdbc/turbine" 
auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource"
         driverClassName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"
         url="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/turbine"
         username="db_user" password="db_password"
         maxTotal="100" maxIdle="20" minIdle="5" maxWaitMillis="10000"/>
</Context>


And that seems to clear that up so it starts immediately within 
Eclipse/Tomcat configuration. Otherwise, out of the box, the user gets 
the following exception:

Horrible Exception: org.apache.turbine.services.InstantiationException: 
Service AvalonComponentService failed to initialize

If you agree with these changes, I am happy to commit them to the 
Turbine webapp archetype.
