RE: VOTE on final TLP draft

2005-04-06 Thread Yoav Shapira
Hi,

 That being the case, if there is nothing more to discuss over the set of
 Resolutions, should we just have the initial PMC members vote on it and
 send it to the Board for approval?  This does not need to be a secret
 ballot since it's just pro/con, so we should be able to move quickly.  I

No, this is a vote that needs to take place on [EMAIL PROTECTED] (you're right
that it needs not be secret), and is open to Jakarta [the current TLP] PMC
members.

The rest of the stuff (time, vote counting, etc.) is fine by me, no big deal
anyways.

RE: [RESULT] PMC Chair

2005-04-01 Thread Yoav Shapira
Hi,

 Next is to draft a resolution to supply to the board,
 making Tomcat a TLP. It's easiest to look over the approved
 minutes and look at similar resolutions and use them
 as a guide.

Below is the draft resolution we agreed on previously, so it should be
pretty close.  We need to make sure the PMC names are correct and complete.
Congrats to Remy and thanks everyone for voting, and of course thanks Henri
;)

Final Four weekend

2005-04-01 Thread Yoav Shapira
Hi,

I'll be gone this weekend to the lovely (I think/hope) city of St. Louis.  I
wanted to bring up three items before I have to leave for the airport:

 

-  Bugzilla 6582.  It looks like a simple issue, the patch is there,
and it's been around long enough that I'm tired of seeing that red line at
the top of the Bugzilla report ;)  Can someone with servletapi-5 please take
care of it (or resolve/invalid/wontfix if that's the correct thing to do).
;)

-  TCKs for 5.5.9, just a reminder that it'd be great to have those
run this weekend, so that we can have a stability vote early next week.

-  What's the status of the Servlet/JSP Specs?  I see no new JSRs,
but maybe maintenance releases are coming?  It'd be nice to have an update
from someone on the Expert Group as to what's going on.

 

Have a good weekend everyone ;)

RE: [VOTE] PMC Chair

2005-03-25 Thread Yoav Shapira
Hi,

 I would recommend that before anyone responds, we decide who should
 rec' and tally the votes. Also, votes should only be counted
 from those who will be on the new PMC.
 
 So before the vote:
 
1. Finalize list of PMC members
   (all current committers)
2. Determine who to collect and tally votes
   (I propose Henri Yandell)

All fine by me.  I suppose people who have been inactive for a while aren't
suddenly going to come in and vote.  And then once we have a PMC, we can
decide if we want to do anything like move them to honorary emeritus status
out of the CVS avail file.

Have a good weekend everyone,

RE: cvs commit: jakarta-tomcat-catalina/webapps/docs changelog.xml

Hola,

 If a patch was submitted and committed, I think the name of the
 submitter should be mentioned.

I usually put the name of the committer only in the changelog.  That seems
to be consistent with past practice.   The bugzilla issue (linked from the
changelog when possible) has the name of the submitter(s).  If they add
themselves as @authors in the code, I also leave that in.  However, if we
want to put submitter names in the changelog, I'm fine with that and will
start doing so from now on.

[VOTE] PMC Chair

2005-03-24 Thread Yoav Shapira
Hi,

It seems that there informal consensus to become a TLP.  It also seems that
the proposal draft I posted earlier is mostly fine, with minor scope
adjustment.  We agree that there should be annual elections for PMC chair.
The final element we need to fill in our TLP proposal before we have a
formal vote on it is our initially suggested PMC chairman (or woman).

 

So far, Remy and I have proposed ourselves as candidates for the job.  While
multiple people will help out, only one can hold the title at a time, as was
made clear by Jim and others.  Accordingly, let's have a simple majority
vote of tomcat committers to see if we can decide on the initial PMC chair,
assuming that simple mechanism is OK with everyone.  You all know Remy and
myself well enough I believe, but feel free to ask questions (in public or
private as you wish).

 

Obviously a vote doesn't indicate anything personal.  Remy and I have spoken
in private and both understand each other, there's no issues between us.
However if there's some reason I'm not aware of to hold this vote in
private, we can do it on [EMAIL PROTECTED] maybe (although I'm not
sure all Tomcat committers are members of that list), or using one of the
ASF voting scripts from CVS/SVN.

 

The initial Tomcat PMC chair should be:

[  ] Remy Maucherat

[  ] Yoav Shapira

5.5.9 Time

2005-03-23 Thread Yoav Shapira
Hi,

I was thinking this Saturday, March 26th, would be a good time for cutting
Tomcat 5.5.9.  There's a decent number of fixes in the changelog, and a
couple of new things including the host manager webapp.  Finally, I
introduced a regression into 5.5.8 by accidentally leaving out the JavaMail
jars when building it, as shown in Bugzilla 34131, so I'd like to fix that.
Is anyone *not* OK with me cutting Tomcat 5.5.9 this Saturday, say around
2pm my time (1900h GMT) ?

RE: cvs commit: jakarta-tomcat-connectors/jk/xdocs/howto apache.xml

2005-03-23 Thread Yoav Shapira
Hi,

+This file is created by enabling the Apache auto-configuration as
 follows, in your server.xml file:
+/p
+source
+  Server ...
+Listener className=org.apache.jk.config.ApacheConfig
 modJk=/path/to/mod_jk.so /
+  /Server
+/source

 This is specific to Tomcat 5.x (whereas the file isn't).  Also, if you are
 only going to give one example on how to use ApacheConfig, it would be
 better to show placing it under Engine (as it's the simplest useful case).

I'll move the example under Engine and specify that it's specific to 5.x for
clarity.  Thanks for pointing that out,

RE: TLP Draft Proposal

2005-03-23 Thread Yoav Shapira
Hi,

 Sharing the role ( i.e. the tasks ) has a lot of precedents.

And I think it'll be multiple people helping out, e.g. filling out parts of
the board report relevant to what they're working on.

 Well, Remy and Yoav are members of ASF - so they clearly passed the
 'Apache Way' test. If this is a requirement - than the pool of
 candidates is going to be quite small ( Remy, Yoav, you, Bill - and
 Craig or Justina if they choose to get back )

I don't think being an ASF member is (or should be) a requirement.

 For 'managerial' and 'political' - I think both did both ( maybe without
 enjoying it, but still...)

I enjoy the managerial, administrative, and bookkeeping aspects of this and
other jobs.  That probably puts me in a small minority within this group ;)
But at the same time might be a good factor in being a PMC chair, since I
see the large majority of it as being administrative.  As Mladen said
previously, all major decisions will be made by PMC consensus.  On a day to
day basis, coding, commits, votes, etc, nothing will change anyways.

TLP Draft Proposal

2005-03-22 Thread Yoav Shapira
Hi,
Below is a draft of our TLP proposal.  The format is fairly standard, copied
from other recent TLP promotions.  (You can see those in ASF Board meeting
minutes).

I've added all currently active committers to the initial PMC.  If I've
missed anyone, please let me know.

Part of the proposal is the initial PMC Chairman.  I'd like to put myself up
as a candidate, and if anyone else is interested, now's the time to speak
up.  This is a rotating term anyways, so anyone interested who sticks around
long enough will get a chance to wear the hat.

Once we agree on the draft phrasing, we'll have an actual vote.  I believe
that actually takes place on [EMAIL PROTECTED] rather than tomcat-dev?  Are 
there
any active Tomcat committers who are not Jakarta PMC members?  If I were to
guess, maybe Peter anyone else as new?

Hi,

 I would like to propose Remy == XX ( he can obviously refuse, but I
 hope he will not do that ). Obvious reasons on why he is the best
 choice, so I don't think consensus will be a problem - only his
 acceptance ( it'll not involve too much coding :-).

I was thinking Remy might refuse, so he doesn't have to deal with all the
administrative stuff that comes with the role.  That and my own interest in
the role prevent consensus at this point ;)

Howdy,

  I think the idea of rotating ( let's say yearly ? ) would be an excelent
  one - it'll avoid having people serve for too much ( and sometimes avoid
  bad habbits - like forgeting to ask the community before making
  important decisions :-)
 
 That's a decent plan. What do the other projects do about that ?

Logging Services, which formed just recently, has a yearly PMC chair term,
but the incumbent can repeat the role if the PMC so votes.

I'm waiting to hear from Remy on what he wants to do.  He has to want to be
the PMC chair ;)  If he does want it and all the admin stuff that goes with
it, it's fine with me.  The role of a VP is something we can define, but
doesn't really exist within other ASF projects, which just have the PMC
chair and the rest of the PMC, so I don't think we need one.

I'm also fine with the annual rotation as suggested by Costin.

RE: Time for TLP?

2005-03-21 Thread Yoav Shapira
Hi,
Yea, TLP = Top-Level Project.  My apologies for the acronym ;)

It would mean Tomcat leaves Jakarta technically.  There would be a Tomcat
PMC (roughly consisting of all current committers), reporting to the ASF
Board.  There would be a tomcat.apache.org instead of
Jakarta.apache.org/tomcat (obviously old links will be kept as forwarding
URLs for sanity sake).  For more details on what's involved, you can google
on the promotions of Struts, Lucene, Cocoon, or any other sub-project that's
now an Apache TLP.

As I said before, this is an informal survey.  A formal proposal and vote

Hi,
The main reason is in the threads quoted in my original email: there is
increased support and motivation for it in the broader ASF community.  A
secondary reason is my own personal interest in seeing Tomcat become an even
stronger brand.

  It would mean Tomcat leaves Jakarta technically.  There would be a

  Jakarta.apache.org/tomcat (obviously old links will be kept as

RE: Web apps vs. Logging vs. Tomcat

2005-03-17 Thread Yoav Shapira
Hola,
Your approach is right and should work.  You basically have to move
everything up the classloader hierarchy into Tomcat's section, and have a
copy of the MBean stuff in each webapp classloader repository that you want
to manage.

And I agree that it sucks...

 Thanks.  That answers that part of the question quite succinctly.
 
 Now what remains is how can I work with log4j and commons logging --
 commons logging's behavior vis-a-vis the contextual classloader seems
 onerous if not just plain wrong.
 
 The only way I can see to fix this is to deploy log4j in Tomcat's own
 lib directories -- and deploy my log4j controller MBeans there for the
 default LoggeRepository and again in each web app for each web app's
 LoggerRepository.
 
 If that's what I need to do, I'll get on with doing it, but I'd like to
 know I'm not just overlooking the obvious...

Yup, I know.  I'm holding out for the possibility that UGLI will be a good
enough solution and a significant enough improvement of JCL to merit
re-consideration at some future time.

As I said, it's not something I'm pushing now, as the above is far (on the

RE: Tomcat for professional large scale webapps?

2005-03-01 Thread Yoav Shapira
Hola,
Numerous users/organizations have reported using Tomcat for that number of
concurrent users and higher.  Achieving good and efficient programming is
usually the bottleneck.  You might also want to try clustering and
load-balancing your Tomcats.  If you don't want to involve Apache you can
use a Tomcat with the Balancer webapp as your front-end for load-balancing
requests.

 To get Tomcat to run directly from CD-Rom I am thinking I will have to

 and point them instead to a temporary folder under windows.
 
 Can anyone think of any other issues I am going to run into or if there

public draft, then we'll look at the scope of changes and decide.  It'd be a
version change for sure, but possibly not a major one if it's only the JSP
Spec.

Are you asking simply out of curiosity? ;)

 Technically, someone will need to propose a VOTE for tomcat6. It would
 describe the features and release plan to be desired for 6. (Such as JSP

 support). So the real answer there is no timeline.
 
 But based on past naming, the name tomcat 6 makes sense.

 Hi,
 Tomcat is not a full J2EE container, only a Servlet
 
  and JSP container.
 
 Accordingly, J2EE spec releases don't matter per-se.
 
  They only matter if
 
 they contain new Servlet or JSP spec releases in
 
  them.
 
 Tomcat 6 will implement the next version of the JSP

 whenever those come out.

 this be implemented by Tomcat 5.5 too, or will this
 result ina new version - say Tomcat 6 (for Servlet

RE: 5.5.8 ?

Hi,
I think 5.5.8 is a good idea, but I'd like to address the following first: 
-  6582  SERVLETAPI: Sample code does not match behavior
-  33224  when webapp config file and directory URL is specified, d...  
  (this one may already be addressed by your deployer changes)
- 33362 setclasspath.bat missing @echo off

- 33219 Slight code improvement  
- 32382 First App - Example App is misleading

 Hi Yoav,
 
 What do you think about the idea of doing a 5.5.8 ?
 
 The list of fixes gets longer, and there were actually two regressions
 in 5.5.7:
 - JSP precompilation with taglibs in some cases
 - DataSource realm connection leaking; the fix needs testing
 
 My latest deployer changes need testing as well, as it would be good to
 avoid regressions.

Re: Adding CRL support to the Coyote Connector

2005-02-12 Thread Yoav Shapira
Howdy,

 Are there any plans on adding CRL support in tomcat in the near
 future?  Is anyone else looking into adding CRL support tomcat?

No to both.

 If not then I will probably take a stab at trying to implement CRL
 support in the code.  Does anyone know why CRLs were not implemented
 in the past?  Is there some fundamental issue that I am not aware of? 

Probably no fundamental technical issue, just the usual combination: lack of
demand from users and lack of interest on behalf of developers.

 Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not an expert on CRLs, but whatever you can do in a Filter (as in
javax.servlet.Filter) as opposed to in the connector itself is good, because it
means you don't have to hack Tomcat and your solution is container-portable.

RE: [VOTE] Proposed API change to the Manager interface

2005-02-07 Thread Yoav Shapira
Hi,

However, the problem is that I need to modify a method in the top level 
Manager interface :(

public Session createSession()
must become:
public Session createSession(String sessionId)
(if sessionId is null, a new session id will be generated)

As the createSession() will no longer be used anywhere, and calling it 
in old managers would create bad behavior, I propose removing it rather 
than deprecating it.

Why can't createSession() simply call createSession(null) ?  That way we
could deprecate it and preserve backwards compatibility, at least for a
little while.  I'm uneasy about simply breaking a major interface, one
that's customized often by users.

Other than that, and given Tim's catch and your fix, I'm OK with this.

Re: [VOTE] Proposed API change to the Manager interface

2005-02-07 Thread Yoav Shapira
Hi,

 Right, that's what I tried at first. However, session tracking would 
 break in mysterious ways whenever emptySessionPath is used if we did 
 that. So I considered it was better to remove the method to signal some 
 change is needed.
 
 That was my idea, but I'm ok with adding back the method in Manager (and 
 ManagerBase) as deprecated if you still think it's better.

Yeah, I still think it's better.  Marginally better and obviously not perfect,
but still better.  If you want to add a comment to the old createSession()
version that session tracking might break in mysterious ways if
emptySessionPath is used, that's fine too.  The important thing is we'll
deprecate it and maintain backwards compatibility for at least a few releases /
few months, then we can remove it altogether.  (And I'll be +1 for that, always
preferring a cleaner interface myself)

RE: SVN migration?

Hi,
We build files would need to be updated, but I suppose we could try moving
one module at a time.  For example, Jakarta-tomcat-site is by itself as far
as dependencies.  The servletapi modules would be a decent thing to move
before the main Tomcat stuff, because the dependency on them is fairly
clear, and we could use that move to test out our required build file
changes.

It's a significant effort, I'm +0 on the whole thing.  I know SVN has
significant advantages, but they're not significant to me ;)  I'm fine with

But then again - as long as there are volunteers from communities using

Ultimately -each- project needs to make their own deceisions as to what

However SVN is a bit more modern than CVS - so you may also have some

Re: apache + tomcat with 2 domains but same session?

2005-02-04 Thread Yoav Shapira
Hi,
It's great for you that you have a solution, but it's not compatible with the
Servlet Spec and therefore can't be integrated into Tomcat.  It's not a Tomcat
bug, but rather your requirements that are in conflict with the Spec.

Yoav

Quoting Simon Lau [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

 
 Just want you guys to know that I have found a solution for my problem.
 
 I have to change the source code in tomcat to get this to work.
 Here is what I've done:
 In source org.apache.coyote.tomcat5.CoyoteRequest line 2313 (btw, I am using
 tomcat5.0.28 source) I added
   cookie.setDomain(.abc.com); // beware of the leading dot
 compile the source and replace the new catalina.jar into my tomcat
 server/lib directory.
 
 I am now able to switch between both
 http://aaa.abc.com/myapp/index.jsp
 http://bbb.abc.com/myapp/index.jsp
 and the session persists !!!
 
 I wonder why the web.xml file in conf/ didn't provide such an option for us
 to set more cookie options.
 As for now, I can only set session-timeout in web.xml.
 I suggest adding like cookie-domain
 session-config
 session-timeout30/session-timeout
 cookie-domain.abc.com/cookie-domain
 /session-config
 I know resin have such an option, see here
 http://browserinsight2.lunaimaging.com:8090/ref/app-config.xtp#session-config
 
 I am posting this to both user list and developer list, I hope someone in
 the tomcat project will read it and implement this in the future.
 
 Thanks everyone that have helped me though, means a lot.

  [I have a major sinus cold - so I might not be writing clearly ...]
 
  I don't think URL rewriting from apache mod_rewrite will solve your
 problem.
  Tomcat maintains state with the session via a session cookie. The cookie
 is
  fixed to the currnet domain name (not configurable) and the cookie is
 fixed
  to the current webapp path(also not configurable).
 
  But the session cookie is the key to picking up the session. Since you are
  working in a differnet domain - the session cookie is not sent by the
 client.
 
  But for clients that do not allow cookies, you can use url rewriting via
 the
  servlet API. (See HttpResponse.encodeUrl()). This method detects whether
 the
  client has sent the request and maintained state via a session cookie and
 if
  a cookie was not used, the url is rewritten and encoded with a path
 variable
  called jsessionid. (eg: foo.jsp;jsessionid=ABDDAAN9900)
 
  To get a session from aaa.com to work in bbb.com - you need to have a page
 on
  aaa.com link to bbb.com with the URL containing the jessessionid path
 parameter.

IP perspective.  Retain Remy's new file with it's easy IP handling, and give
Jason a nice thank you (but not copyright, as was made clear in the

Hopefully that way no one's ego is hurt beyond the pain already inflicted by
this whole discussion, and we all move on.

 suppose every vendor does that, of course, but it's still quite 
 disppointing (as then, the temptation exists to add value to our own

 Tomcat will work perfectly well without this code, so I do not see the 
 point reintroducing it accompanied with ambiguous legal and advertising 
 statements. This code (it's a set of name value pairs, so it's not 
 really code actually) was improperly sneaked into the Tomcat codebase, 
 so I think we should get rid of it.

 matching works), so I did keep my NSIS 2.0 which works fine
 - JDT 3.1 from Eclipse 3.1M4 now supports fully Java 5 (according to

 attempt to integrate it yet; as it is obvious the compiler will be 
 stabilized before the UI on top of it, it should be acceptable to try 
 integrating when 3.1M5 comes out
 
 I will need TCK testing for the build when it's done.

The build is here: http://www.apache.org/dist/jakarta/tomcat-5/v5.5.7-alpha/
The tag in CVS is: TOMCAT_5_5_7

We migrated to tomcat 5.0.28 from jserv, which is affecting the performance
after migration (for the same load as Jserv) 
Is there any recommended configuration changes/performance tuning
documentation ?
 
Any help is really appreciated
 
Thanks,
-Krishna

RE: DO NOT REPLY [Bug 28867] - Documentation mentions zero-length string for root context path instead of /

Hi,
I thought the docs were right, path= for the ROOT, not path=/.  And
therefore I thought this was an invalid bug report.  Was I wrong?

RE: DO NOT REPLY [Bug 28867] - Documentation mentions zero-length string for root context path instead of /

2005-01-11 Thread Yoav Shapira
Hi,
IT might be the manager that's wrong.  When editing server.xml or
context.xml files for those Tomcat versions, users should use path= and
not path=/.  The latter leads to significant failures.

RE: DO NOT REPLY [Bug 28867] - Documentation mentions zero-length string for root context path instead of /

2005-01-11 Thread Yoav Shapira
Hi,
The docs agree with the behavior only for the manager, that's the problem.
Previously the docs agreed with the configuration instructions, e.g. editing
server.xml, and disagreed with the manager.  So we should clarify in the
docs that what the manager reports as / is actually  when you create
context.xml files.

We've gotten easily 1000 times more questions from people putting / in
configuration files (which is wrong) than we have people complaining about
/ in the manager.  If we have to pick one, the former (the way the docs
previously were) is much better.  But we don't have to pick just one
thankfully, we can have docs that cover both the manager display and the
configuration.

This issue comes up often enough on the list that this is worthwhile,
otherwise I wouldn't have said anything...

I am not aware of a) and from a user perspective / seems to make more

At least at present the docs agree with the actual behaviour.

Re: Problems checking out Tomcat 5.0 from CVS

Hi,
You need to use the TOMCAT_5_0 CVS tag when checking out.  That stuff is on its
own branch.

 Hi all,
 
 I'm trying to checkout and compile the latest Tomcat 5.0 sources from
 CVS, but I seem to get the 5.5 sources instead.  I used the following
 command to get the build.xml.
 
 $ wget http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/build.xml
 
 and use the following build.properties file:
 
 $ cat build.properties 
  # - Proxy setup -
 # Uncomment if using a proxy server.
 #proxy.host=proxy.domain
 #proxy.port=8080
 #proxy.use=on
 
 # - Default Base Path for Dependent Packages -
 # Replace this path with the directory path where
 # dependencies binaries should be downloaded.
 base.path=C:/Documents and Settings/flan/My
 Documents/Work/Personal/Tomcat/dependencies
 
 The build succeeds, but when I look at the CVS version of files that I
 *know* are different in 5.0 and 5.5, I find the 5.5 version.  For
 example:
 
 $ cat

jakarta-tomcat-catalina/catalina/src/share/org/apache/catalina/startup/CVS/Entries
 /Authenticators.properties/1.1.1.1/Thu Jul 18 16:47:47 2002//

 [...]
 /HostConfig.java/1.52/Mon Jan  3 16:10:19 2005//
 [...]
 
 What is the best way to check out the 5.0 sources?
 
 Thanks,

Hi,
You can use the cvstag (IIRC, I haven't used it in ages) property.  If you
check out the right modules, build.properties.default and its dependencies will
be correct.

 Okay, I know how to do that by hand, but is there a blessed way to
 do it with the build.xml file?  I couldn't find a related property. 
 Should I checkout all of the projects using the TOMCAT_5_0 branch, or
 only certain ones?  How will this affect the shared dependencies?

Re: catalina seesion-id prediction (fwd)

2004-08-20 Thread Yoav Shapira
Hi Zvi,
Thank you for sending the paper.  It's interesting, well-researched, and makes
good points.  Congratulations on completing it and presumably your PhD soon ;)

I have a few comments: 

- In Tomcat, java.security.SecureRandom and not java.util.Random is the default
generator, so as described in the first paragraph of section 5.2 a general PRNG
attack will not be effective against an out-of-the-box Tomcat.

- Your analysis of the toString method's weakness is fascinating.  It is indeed
a JVM implementation matter, as it's always a native method, and as such it's
less in the scope of the Tomcat implementator and more in that of the JVM
implementor.

- You omitted the following details, which are significant in my opinion to the
analysis as it applies to Tomcat.  Tomcat:
  -- Encourages the user to specify a custom entropy value easily as a String. 
This value would not available to an attacker.  Our documentation suggests
using this attribute in security-conscious environment.  Furthermore, this
value may be derived from a program (including /dev/random) and changed with
every run of the server.
  -- Allows the user to plug in any implementation they wish of
java.util.Random to fit their security requirements.
  -- Allows the user to substitute any Manager implementation they wish and
completely implement the session ID generation scheme as their security
requirements dictate.

It is only fair to mention these pluses as you analyze the minuses of Tomcat's
session ID generation scheme. 

Because of these options, I personally think we've made a great tradeoff
between security for the common user and flexbility for security-conscious
servers.  I don't anticipate any action or changes in our implementation
resulting from your paper.

- The final point is minor, but I wanted to mention it as your bibliography is
otherwise nicely done: you have no reference to the Tomcat site itself
(jakarta.apache.org/Tomcat).  That would be appreciated.

I'm copying the tomcat-dev list on this message, so that the discussion is
logged in our archives.  Please feel free to subscribe (send email to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]) to the list and discuss this paper
further.  I am of course not posting the paper to the list, as it's your
property, but I'm sure other developers will find it interesting as well should
you be inclined to post it.

Thanks again ;)

 Hello,
 
 My name is Zvi Gutterman and I am a PhD student from the Hebrew
 university in Jerusalem, Israel.
 Together with my advisor, prof. Dahlia Malkhi, we studied the
 Catalina session-id generation algorithm.
 Our results (see attached paper) show that Jakarta servers not using
 /dev/random may be vulnerable to session id prediction.
 The paper will be presented in the RSA 2005 conference (to be
 held in Feb 2005).
 
 You may want to consider a change in the session-id generation scheme.
 If you need any help or want to discuss our prediction algorithm I will be
 happy to assist.
 
 regards,
 
 Zvi.

 HttpSession to a more general interface (enhancement request 21169)

   Hey Guys,
  
   I just made a proposed patch for the enhancement request I made
   regarding the SIP Servlet API
   http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21169
  
   It adds a new interface org.apache.catalina.ServletSession that
   contains the methods that HttpSession has in common with
   SipSession and SipApplicationSession.
  
   The interface changes are non-intrusive meaning that it changes or
   adds no functionality so if a class implements HttpSession it will also
   implement all the methods in ServletSession.
  
   To make catalina support the new interface have have made the
   following changes:
   org.apache.catalina.Session - changed to return a ServletSession in
   the getSession() method
   org.apache.catalina.session.StandardSession - makes it implement
   ServletSession and typecasts to HttpSession where needed.
   org.apache.catalina.session.StandardSessionFacade - makes it implement
   ServletSession
   org.apache.coyote.tomcat5.CoyoteRequest - typecasts from
   ServletSession to HttpSession in the getSession( boolean )
  
  
   I'm not that thrilled by the patch, because we made the decision in TC 5
   to work only with the HTTP protocol, for complexity reasons. Actually,
   it's merely the underlying protocol having to behave like HTTP (although
   the older TC 4.0 was supposedly protocol generic, it ended up being
   designed with HTTP in mind, so it wasn't much better).
  
   I know a bit the SIP spec, and that patch would sove the problem for
   sessions. How do you plan to solve it for the connector ?
   (the idea is that Coyote - supporting HTTP and JK - will remain the only
   supported connector in TC 5, the internal Catalina API being conserved
   for compatibility, or at least easy porting, of any old Catalina module)
  I don't see how there should be a problem with the connector, besides
  the fact that it has to also do outgoing connections. This only means
  that it gets a little more complex than the ordinary connector but not
  anything I have worries about.
 
  It is sad that you made that descision especially with the arrival of
  SIP Servlets that is the first real specification for using servlets for
  something other than HTTP. Before you could only guess as to how
  servlets otherwise could be used.
  But how will this decision affect the future of the internal Catalina
  API??? Will you deprecate all of it, just parts, redesign it all from
  scratch??
 
 Like Remy, I'm -0 on the patch.  As I read Remy's post, this means that
 neither of us will actually veto it if some other developer decides to post
 it.  However, neither of us consider it to be a-good-idea, so we will be
 looking for implementation holes to veto ;-).
 
 The internal Catalina API (e.g. org.apache.catalina.*) is pretty stable.
 There are no current plans to change it.
 
 
  I also have another project further ahead in the process than this one
  (It actually has running code), where I have implemented my own RTSP
  Servlet API using Catalina and partly based on Coyote. It's my hope to
  start making it into a proper Java specification later this year.
 
  So I'm very interested in what the future internals of Tomcat will look
  like since two of my projects rely on them.

Re: redirect from Servlet

2003-06-26 Thread Yoav Shapira
Howdy,
Not quite.  RequestDispatcher is relative to the context root, so
/test/Test.jsp.  But he wanted to use sendRedirect anyways, so you would do

response.sendRedirect(request.getContextPath() + Test.jsp);

Assuming Test.jsp is under the context root.

  Hi, thanks,
 I added the line. No 404 is present, but the servlet maintains, ie
  the browser is completely blank. What about the (/xxx.jsp) path?
 
  Thanks
 
  Paul.
 
  Try this
  getServletConfig().getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher(/xxx.jsp).
  forward(request, response);

  Subject: redirect from Servlet
 
 
   Hello,
   I have a packaged servlet (com.mypackage.servlets;) in
   WEB-INF\classes\com\mypackage\servlets, where it performs its logic
   dutifully. From the servlet I wish to redirect back to the JSP that
   called it. Currently the JSP origin cannot be found (404). I have
  tried
   all manner of variations of path:
  
   res.sendRedirect(addAgent.jsp);
  
   including a fully formed URL (local and HTTP). How do I redirect to
  the
   desired file please?
  
   Thanks
  
   Paul.

Tomcat 5 examples webapp

2003-06-18 Thread Yoav Shapira
Howdy,
I just checked out jakarta-tomcat-5 from CVS, looking for the examples webapp. 
I can't find it -- am I being blind? (It's happened before ;))

I'd like to add ServletRequestListener, ServletRequestAttributeListener
examples.  I have them ready to commit but was surprised to not find the
examples webapp in the jakarta-tomcat-5 module...
