SSL with Struts/Tomcat

[Tuan H. Le]

Hi,

Sorry, I think this question is more related to Tomcat and F5 load balancer instead of 
Struts related topic. But, I'm hoping that some one on this group has done/configured 
a similar environment like we have and point me to a direction on how to solve our 
problem with HTTPS.

We are using Big IP 2000 application switches controller running config 4.2 PTF7.
Basically, the problem is when HTTPS session is initiated (by requesting /abc/login.do 
servlet and it works fine), but the links or redirects within the page is sending the 
session back to an HTTP none secure session. SSL redirection and rewrite are 
configured on the F5 and seem to be working on pages without frames. However, for this 
particular site using frame pages, it does not appear to be working properly. 
Thanks,
Tuan

RE: html:multibox values not populated in the form bean

[Tuan H. Le]

I figured out one of my problems. Now, it calls the setter method in a form bean, but 
when it gets to the action class, the String[] variable for storing multibox selection 
is empty. Do you know what I'm missing?

Thanks,
Tuan

RE: intermitten missing field value when submit to a Struts action????

Andrew,

Thanks for your response! 

I changed the field name from action to dispatch, but I got the same result, and I'm 
having the same problem on the   as well (my previous post 
" having a problem of passing the selected items to an action").

Is it just for parameters named "action" or for other parameters as well?
In JavaScript forms have a property "action" that contains the url of where
to submit the form on a post. You may be experiencing some interference? -
Though in my experience it usually seems to work the other way. Ie: the
field hides the property...
Worth a try using a name other than action though.

May look funny but pls check the spelling of method="post". We had this
problem and later found that methd="post".
Great possibility of overlooking this.

If you have something working consistently in one browser and consistently
not in another, it's likely to be an HTML problem. Are you submitting with a
GET or a POST method? If you're using GET, there's a known bug (fixed in IE
6) where parameter names can resolve to escape characters, e.g.
/someul.do?param=123"e=456 will become /someul.do?param=123"e=456. Might
be something to do with that?

Hi,

Has any one experienced a problem that I'm having with hidden input text
field?

I have two different IE browser versions (5.5 and 6.0). For the IE 6.0,
it works fine when I get a hidden field value via

(String)request.getParameter( "action" );

But, for IE 5.5 version with the same code, some times it returns a null
value from the hidden field action.

Thanks,

having a problem of passing the selected items to an action

[Tuan H. Le]

Hi,

I'm having a problem of getting the selected checkbox values in my Struts action 
class. In the view, it has two multiboxes (approve and reject) and in my Struts form 
class I declared two String[] attributes to hold the selected checkbox values. But, 
when it gets to the action via html form submit, it returns empty String array. The 
checkbox selection works fine on the view.

Below is my code: View, ActionForm, Action class, and strut-config.xml.

Thanks for your time!

data in session sometimes not get updated???

[Tuan H. Le]

Hi,

I'm having a bug in my application that the user's session attribute SOMETIMES does 
not get updated/refreshed as expected, but I don't know the reason why. Please advise 
what I'm doing wrong. Here is my test scenario

1) UserAction class fetches a list of employees with review status and store the list 
in an ArrayList
2) UserAction class set this ArrayList object in a session attribute
3) UserAction class forwards to a view
4) A view uses above ArrayList object in session to display a list of employees with 
their review status (reject/approve)
5) The user selects one or more employees and submit for approval or/and rejection
6) UserAction class saves the employee(s) review status
7) UserAction class rebuilds the ArrayList by fetching from a database
8)  same as step 2
9)  same as step 3
10)  same as step 4

I debugged the code and I found that the data get saved correctly in step 6 and 
returned with updated values in step 7. But, SOMETIMES that data in a session 
attribute does not get updated. If I refresh browser window, it displays the new 
updated data.


Here's my code snippet

### UserAction class ##

  . . .
  // get a list of employees. Returns an array list of EmployeeVO objects
  List employeeList = employeeDAO.getEmployeeReviewList( manager.getEmployeeId() );

  // make sure to destroy previous employeeList object before setting a new one
  List tmpObj = (List)session.getAttribute( USER_EMPLOYEE_LIST_VIEW_KEY );
  tmpObj = null;
  // now set the object in a session attributes
  session.setAttribute( USER_EMPLOYEE_LIST_VIEW_KEY, employeeList );
  . . .

 Value Object ###

/**
 * The Value Object will be placed in the session; therefore it needs to be
 * serializable so the container can persist sessions if needed.
 */
public class EmployeeVO extends PersonVO implements Serializable {
. . .
}

 JSP View 


<%
  // number of employees returned from the list
  if ( employeeList != null ) {
int listSize = employeeList.size();
  }
%>



  
  
  
  
<%@ include file="CommonJSFunctions.js"%>
  







  
  ">
  // --
  // output employee data with review status here.
  // I'm using JSP scripting instead of  tag
  // Could this have any conflicts?? Below is a sample code
  // --
  
<%= employee.getReviewStatus() %>

[Tuan H. Le]

Hi,

I need to pass in the select box index to a JavaScript function. Is there a way to do 
that in  tag?. I have tried JSP scripting (<%=...%>), but that does not 
work. I have two multiboxes in a form and I need to select/unselect the checkbox 
between those two multiboxes via calling my selectChoice() JS function below

JavaScript:

   function selectChoice( field, i ) {
  if ( field[i].checked == true ) {
 // unselect other check box index
  }
   }

JSP:


  ">


  
 
  

  
  


Thanks,
Tuan

Close a child window and refresh its parent window

[Tuan H. Le]

Hi,

I recalled that some one on this forum posted a similar problem that I'm having with 
the child-parent window issue which is more related to JavaScript. But, I couldn't 
find a solution to my issue in this forum's archive.

In my app, I need to:

1) submit the form to a specified action and save the data in db
2) close the child window (a modal window) 
3) and refresh its parent window with the updated data in db

I tested my code and it saved the data in the child window after invoking the action 
serlvet. But, after it closed the child window, it opened a new window instead of 
refreshing its parent window. The new window has the same layout and data as the 
parent window, hence, it get duplicated.

If some one has implemented this functionality in JavaScript, may I ask for your time 
to correct the doSave() JavaScript below so that the parent window would get refreshed.

Thanks a bunch!

Tuan


- MainMenu.jsp (frameset) : JSP Code for Parent window -



  

function openModal( theURL, name ){
  window.showModalDialog( theURL, '' ,'dialogWidth:662px;, dialogHeight:180px; 
help:no; scroll:no; status:no; center:yes; resizable:no; unadorned:yes;');
}

  

  
  

  

   

  




--- EditSalary.jsp: JSP Code for child (popup Modal window) --



  
function doSave() {
  //
  // need code to close the child window and refresh the 
  // parent window which opened the child window
  // 
  // call form.submit() here and close the child window
  // self.close();
  //
}

This won't quite work.  If you use a scriptlet for the rtexprvalue of an
attribute, it has to be the ENTIRE attribute value, not just a portion of
it.  So, your "onclick" attribute would look approximately like this:

onclick='<%= "openModal(\'/editSalary.do?" + employee.getId() + ")"\')'

Bleah.  I wouldn't be surprised if I got some quoting wrong there.

If you use the Struts-EL package in the nightly build, this is much easier,
and would look like this:

onclick="openModel('/editSalary.do?${employee.id}')"

However, even this probably isn't right.  I think you intended to have a
request parameter and a value, but you appear to be just sending a request
parameter name with no value.  Therefore, you might have instead intended
something like this (in the easier struts-el syntax):

onclick="openModel('/editSalary.do?id=${employee.id}')"

ok, I replaced  with  and it works fine. It seems like the

Hi

Can some one please show me a tip on how to pass a dynamic value into a
JavaScript function within  tag? What I need is to pass an
employee ID in the openModal( '/editSalary.do?id=### ).

Here's my code



  function openModal( theURL ){
 window.showModalDialog(theURL,'','dialogWidth:662px;, dialogHeight:180px;
 help:no; scroll:no; status:no; center:yes; resizable:no; unadorned:yes;');
 }



  
  
  




I know how to create a  that generates an HREF with a passing
dynamic parameter value as such



The code above works fine, but I need a way to open a modal dialog window
with a specific size.

Thanks in advance!

RE: How to determine the last row in a collection

In my case, I'm not sure your suggestion would work. 

Here's the logic that I'd like to implement within 

if it's the last row

My collection is an ArrayList, and it's pretty straight forward to achieve this logic 
by using array index and ArrayList.size() method. But, I don't know how to accomplish

I'm not sure that's the issue, because the session.getAttribute returned a correct 
ArrayList object employeeList and the for loop works fine.

Read the API documentation for the "present" tag.  You'll find it says this
about the "name" attribute:

  Checks for the existence of a JSP bean, in any scope, with the specified name.

That means the key for the object in the table has to have that name.  In your
"logic:present" tag, you've referenced the name "employeeList", but you put it
into the table with a name of "com.xyz.key.USER".

I even replaced the variable IConstants.USER_EMPLOYEE_LIST_KEY to the actual value

issue. Again, the for loop works just fine.

return the right data from that array object.

I don't know, but my guess is that you meant to use 
someString.equals(someOtherString) rather than someString == 
someOtherString, unless you somehow are using a hidden myString.intern() in 
there.  My guess, in other words, is that you are getting nothing because 
all your "==" tests yield false.  Try sticking a "!" or two in there and 
see if something miraculously appears.  Debuggers are not very clever at 
finding the real problems, like this one, if this is right.

PLEASE HELP - struts-tiles no longer work

[Tuan H. Le]

Hi,

My app was working fine using struts-tiles with frameset. But since this afternoon, it 
does not work any more. It displays a blank page (NOT a 404 error).

I have tried with debug code, but couldn't figure out. The action forward seems to 
work fine after the user login. I tested and it forwarded to the right View (JSP) 
which is the MainMenu.jsp. I have been debugging this issue for the last 5 hrs, and I 
ran out of idea where to look for a solution to this problem.

Please help!

Thanks,
Tuan

<%@ page import="com.phs.ezhr.constant.IConstants" %>

<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-tiles.tld" prefix="tiles" %>

The debug code below returned the correct paths to JSP pages for header, body, 
rightside and footer, but none of them get displayed. It returns a blank page.

<%=request.getContextPath()%>

[Tuan H. Le]

Hi,
I have two classes Salary and Employee

public class Salary {
  private Date date;
  private double amount;
  private float meritPercent;
  ...
  // and Salary class accessor methods (setter/getter) 
}

public class Employee {
  Salary salary;
  private int id;
  private String lastName;
  ...
  // and Employee class accessor methods  
}

In my JSP page, it needs to display a collection (List) of Employee records with 
Salary data. 


  


How do I display the employee's salary record, ie: amount, merit percent, ...?

Thanks in advance for your help!

RE: Using Frameset within Struts - displayed a blank page

[Tuan H. Le]

Hi Brian,

Thanks for your response! I tried to define a forward within the /selectTab action, 
but I still see a blank page. The new action mapping is below





Read the Struts archive, it seems that using tiles/template is a better choice than 
calling in action in the frame src attribute.

Also, it would be much appreciated if some one can share a sample code and 
configuration on how to develop tabs functionality with frame and tiles. I'm going 
through tiles-documentation tutorial. 

The layout that we have for our application is below

Top frame: Tab labels
Middle frame: content body
Bottom frame: other data and footer.

Thanks!
Tuan

Interesting.  Never tried calling in action in a SRC attribute.  Seems like it works 
since you are getting a blank page, and not a HTTP: 404 error ( Page not found ).

When I see blank white pages it is usually a problem with your forwards.  I don't see 
a forward defined in the selectTab action definition in the Struts-config file.
Is it a Global forward? is it misspelled in your code?  

Keeping in mind that the input attribute doesn't get checked for forwards, that is 
used for validation.

Using Frameset within Struts - displayed a blank page

I have searched through the struts archive, but couldn't find a solution to my problem

RE: Passing a request parameter within Struts framework

[Tuan H. Le]

Hi Luca,

Great suggestion! Also, I agree with you about not using frame, but we have a business 
requirement that requires us to use a frame, ie: the user does not want to see the 
table headings (and some other data) disappear in a page when they scroll down the 
list of records.

Thanks,
Tuan

Hi,
your problem is clear, and it has very few solutions :)
The problem is that you use frames. Every Frame in a different request,
then the request from your form..end at the page containing the 
frameset, and your request with your parameters set in your form ends 
here. All the pages inside the frames are different GET requests from 
the browser, then they cannot have access your parameters and 
attributess (belonging to you former request).
Solutions:
if your parameter is only a string you can build a string chain..in the 
src of your frame tag:
" 
name="top" id="top" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" noresize 
marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" framespacing="0">
In this case your new request wll have the parameter named myparameterName.
It's very unelegant solution but it could work
Second put your object in the user's session. it's resonable to put it 
in session after all, if I understand well, is an attribute of a user's 
profile.

A general suggestions, don't user frames in dynamic pages, you can have 
always problems with them, Jsp has a nice templating machanism, use that 
to build your header or footer.

RE: Passing a request parameter within Struts framework

[Tuan H. Le]

Hi,

I added Andrew's code tip as below, but it still returns a null value for the request 
parameter.

public final class LoginAction extends Action {
  public ActionForward perform(  ) {
// . . .
ActionForward curForward = mapping.findForward( target );
String path = URLUtil.addParameterToURL( curForward.getPath(), "selTopNav", "1" );
System.out.println( path );
ActionForward newForward = new ActionForward( path, curForward.getRedirect() );
return newForward;
  }
}

public class URLUtil {
  public static String addParameterToURL( String anURL,
  String aParameter,
  String aValue ) {
if ( anURL == null ) {
  return aParameter + "=" + aValue;
} else {
  return anURL + ( (anURL.indexOf( "?" ) == -1) ? "?" : "&" ) + aParameter + "=" + 
aValue;
}
  }
}

-- MainMenu.jsp (where it get forwarded to for a successful login -
<%@ page language="java" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-html.tld" prefix="html" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld" prefix="bean" %>



















 Top.jsp (a frame within a frameset and where the request.getParameter get called) 
--

Selected Top Nav: <%= request.getParameter( "selTopNav" ) %>


This returns a null value instead of "1".

I must have missed some thing here.

Thanks,
Tuan

Given that this is the case, it should be useable in the next page unless
the forward is a redirecting forward.
Dont use jsp much so cant remember the 'best' way to expose it to the page,
but you could probably use a runtime expression thinghy (<%=
request.getAttribute("selTopNav"); %>

If however you need it as a request parameter the way I always do it is as
mentioned below and heres some code to illustrate:

firstly a simple method for adding parameters onto urls:
(btw: you can probably lose the first half of that "if" - Im just paranoid
about nulls ;->)

public static String addParameterToURL(String url, String parameter, String
value)
{
  if(url == null)
  {
return parameter + "=" + value;
  }
  else
  {
return url + ( (url.indexOf("?")==-1) ? "?" : "&" ) + parameter + "=" +
value;
  }
}

and to use this with forwards:

ActionForward fwd = mapping.findForward( target );
String path = addParameterToURL(forward.getPath(),"selTopNav","1");
ActionForward newFwd = new ActionForward(path,fwd.getRedirect() );
return newFwd;

Andrew,

Thanks for a quick response! Do you have a sample code that I can use? It
seems to me that are several lines of code to complete your suggestion. Is
this the only way to pass a request parameter within the LoginAction to
another JSP page? Eventually, I need to pass the request parameter selTopNav
(the user's selected tab) value back and forth to determine which tab the
user has selected.

Thanks again!

In your action you can create a new forward object and return that.
ie: get the forward for target, extract its url and append required
parameter(s) and create a new forward using that and the redirect value from
the one you looked up, and return the new one.

Passing a request parameter within Struts framework

[Tuan H. Le]

Hi,

How do I pass a request attribute to another form? In my case, after a successful 
login, it would forward the user to 
the main form (MainMeu.jsp which has a frameset). In the main form, it has several 
tabs. By default, it displays the
first tab.

Currently, in the perform() method of LoginAction class, I have the following code

//...
request.setAttribute( "selTopNav", "1" );
return( mapping.findForward( target ) );


Here's the code for the MainMenu.jsp


<%@ page language="java" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-html.tld" prefix="html" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld" prefix="bean" %>




















And, in the Top.jsp, I have a test code to get a value of the request attribute, but 
it always returns a null value

Top Nav: <%= request.getParameter( "selTopNav" ) %>

Here's a partial of my struts-config.xml file

  


  

  

  

  
  











  


Do you know what I'm missing?

Thanks,
Tuan

Hii All,

Any one know how to get multiple Datasource from Struts.
Because i think in Struts-config.xml, we are able to specify only one

Also I got an error when I configure my datasources in tomcat's

Cannot load JDBC driver class 'null'

[Tuan H. Le]

Hi,

I'm having a problem of configuring Tomcat 4.1 with Opta2000 JDBC driver for SQL 
Server 2000. I can load the same JDBC driver through the code, but it could not load 
that same driver during Tomcat startup process. I followed the instructions and 
examples on the internet sites. 

Do you know what I am missing?
Thanks!
Tuan

My Tomcat setting is below:

1) Put Opta2000.jar in the \WEB-INF\lib directory
2) Defined Datasource context in the server.xml

  
  
  
  

   maxActive
   100


   maxIdle
   1000


  maxWait
  100


   user
   x


   password
   y


   driverClassName
   com.inet.tds.TdsDriver


   driverName
   jdbc:inetdae7:localhost:1433:Database=ezhr

  

3) Defined resource-ref in the \WEB-INF\web.xml file
  

  Resource reference to a factory for java.sql.Connection instances that may be 
used for talking to a particular database that is configured in the server.xml file

jdbc/ezhr
javax.sql.DataSource
Container

Hi,

I just found this error in tomcat log, and I couldn't figure out the reason for 
causing this error when I don't use struts-tiles tag. Though, I didn't see this error

Thanks for your tips!!! I found a data source error in the Tomcat localhost_log.. 
After removing the data source element in the struts-conf.xml file, the login works as

Hi,

from a login form (with empty user ID/password or witth data), I got an error

package com.phs.ezhr.forms;

/**

 * request is forwarded back to the value defined by this Actions input

4) My environment:

Tomcat 4.1.10
Struts 1.1b2
Windows XP


I can provide web.xml and LoginAction.java if needed.

Much thanks in advance for your helps!
