RE: c:reditect

Thx for your suggestions guys.
I will study the URL rewrite alternative.  Session variables are indeed a
good way to avoid parameters, in particular the ones that are passed
frequently in various pages.

Cheers.

 /will/ be exposed in the URL.
 
 Perhaps you could just put whatever you're trying to pass into the
 session instead.

or perhaps use URL rewrite, e.g. http://tuckey.org/urlrewrite/ ?

RE: c:reditect

2008-01-02 Thread T. Lamine Ba
I am using the mvc model.  The problem with jsp:forward is that the URL is
preserved and might display my filenames in the control space.

For example:
1. /index.jsp submits parameters to /control/doSignup.jsp
2. /control/doSignup.jsp validates and records parameters
3. /control/doSignup.jsp forwards back to index.jsp
4. /index.jsp has the url /control/doSignup.jsp which is
inacceptable

Why can't you just use a standard jsp:forward/ ?

Or is an actual 302 redirect required?

Virtual hosting and listener servlets

2007-10-24 Thread T. Lamine Ba
Here it is.

I use Tomcat 5.0.28.  I also use the tomcat connector and apache to
listen on port 80 to domain names of my websites.  Each website has a
virtual host configured in httpd.conf (apache) and server.xml (tomcat).
The configuration works great except for one thing.  The tomcat
container is not able to execute my ResourceManagerListener servlet,
which is a class where I initialize all my application variables.  The
class is referenced in the my webapp web.xml file as follows:

listener
listener-class
servlets.ResourceManagerListener
/listener-class
  /listener

ResourceManagerListener is located under the directory
webapp/WEB-INF/classes/servlets.  When I do not use any virtual
hosting and I reference the website from the base directory, such as
http://www.mytomcatbase.com/mywebappfolder instead of
http://www.mywebapp.com , then every thing works.

Please advise how I can specify a listener class in web.xml after a
virtual hosting configuration moves the container context.

Thx, Lamine.

Have you tried running on TC 5.5.x?

Browser-based locale setting could certainly cause this to fail. If
you want to force the app to always use English, you should probably
include the following in web.xml:

context-param
  param-namejavax.servlet.jsp.jstl.fmt.locale/param-name
  param-valueen_US/param-value
/context-param

If you just want to change that specific tag, try the parseLocale
attribute:

fmt:parseDate var=birthdate
   value=${param.birthdate}
   pattern=MMM-dd-
   parseLocale=en_US/

 All help appreciated.

RE: listeners and virtual hosts

2007-06-07 Thread T. Lamine Ba
Hi Kris,

Indeed, I am referring to the class stored under folder WEB-INF/classes.
web.xml refers to the class in question through the tag listener.

I am not able to retrieve the attributes defined in that class when I
setup a virtual host.  On the other hand, it works fine when I use the
Tomcat default host.

Quoting T. Lamine Ba [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

 Hi all,
 
 I have Apache connected to Tomcat 5.0.28 on a linux server.
 I have setup virtual hosts in my tomcat server.xml config file
 specifying a domain name for each webapp that I host.
 
 Problem:
 The tomcat container cannot find the listener classes, such as
 ResourceManagerListerner where I specify all my application
parameters.

By listener classes, do you mean classes you've specified in
listener
elements within web.xml? Normally, those would appear either in
WEB-INF/classes
or in JAR files in WEB-INF/lib, just like any other classes needed by
your app.
If that's not what you mean, then please provide more info about your
problem.

What, exactly, is the error you're seeing?

 Can someone give me a configuration tip to solve this problem.
 
 Thx, Lamine.

MySql and Connection pools

2006-12-04 Thread T. Lamine Ba
Hi all,

I have mysql connected to tomcat server via a JNDI connection pool.
Within my webapp, I use either beans or the sql taglib (part of jstl) to
query the database (depending on what is most convenient at the time).

I noticed that sometimes the database hangs and is not able to find and
pull records.  The only fix I found so far is to shutdown tomcat and
restart it.  Then, every thing goes back to normal, until it happens
again.

Has any one experience the same symptoms?  If so, do they have a better
remedy?

File download custom tag or bean

2006-03-05 Thread T. Lamine Ba
I know that you can download a file from a specific location within your
webapp by writing a servlet using OutputStream services.  However, it
has been done so many times, somebody must have created a custom tag or
bean for this feature.

Where can I find a custom tag or bean that would allow me to download
PDF and PPT files from my webapp and via a dialog box that would allow
you to either open the file from the browser or store it in your
desktop?

Thanks,

Lamine.

Not a tag, but if you're using Struts, you can use DownloadAction:
