JDBC Realm documentation

[Kurt, Oliver]

So lets move on

Finally I got the BASIC working.

Now I want to evaluate other aut-methods. I red in the web.dtd that BASIC,
FORM, DIGEST and CLIENT-CERT are legal values for the auth-method.

QUESTION 1.)

Where can I read something about that stuff, for example which java-files
are involved? And where can I get additional infos?

QUESTION 2.)

Another question to the FORM aut-methods:
The following scheme shows a part of my web.xml file:


  FORM
  Example
  
/login/login.jsp
/login/error.jsp
  


Propably the login.jsp has to have some special  and  tags,
where can I see such a login.jsp respectively where can I find the scheme
for ?

Thanks,

Tomcat Test in ...test\web-inf\classes\calendar

[jang won koh]

How do I test are classes the subfolders in 
tomcat\webapps\test\web-inf\classes\.
What is the URL to access 
tomcat\webapps\test\web-inf\classes\calendar\JspCalendar.class ?
http://localhost:8080/test/servlet/calendar/JspCalendar doesn't work. 
Thanks in advance.

Re: Getting Tomcat to run / Installation Error Fixes and Testing

[jang won koh]

These are all the errors I encountered and fixed overnight during Tomcat
installation. ):-(

1. Error Message, "Out of environment space:" --> right click on startup.bat
and click on property and click memory tab and choose initial environment
drop-down box and choose 2048 or bigger. It doesn't have to be 2048+ but a
bigger number has the better chance of working. You can choose property by
clicking the top left corner of the console window.

For reference, I saw in a website a guy says - To solve the 'Out of
Environment Space' error you must edit CONFIG.SYS (again, the old MS-DOS not
so defunct operating system presence). You must add the following line:
SHELL=C:\COMMAND.COM /E:8192 /P
please replace C:\COMMAND.COM to the correct location if you moved
COMMAND.COM to another location. The "/E:8192" allocates 8k to be used by
environment variables. The maximum allowed is 32k (35736). The last
parameter, "/P", is used to make this COMMAND.COM instance resident in
memory and owner of main environment space (from which every process
receives a copy).

2. Error Message, "only DOS 8.3 names may be used in TOMCAT_HOME!"--> You
are using Windows Explorer folder name find dos name of the folder(=
directory) using DIR command in DOS console. If you have long dir name in
windows explorer such as "jakarta-tomcat-3.2.1", it will show up as jakart~1
in DOS. Use this 8 character long name.

2a. Use simple folder(=directory) names for JDK(=J2SDK 1.3) and TOMCAT. I
used default names "j2sdk1.3" and "jakarta-tomcat-3.2.1" They caused
conflicts in *.bat files when starting tomcat. Especially DON'T USE "." in
those folder names. USE 8 characters-long name, or find matching DOS DIR
name for the windows explorer long folder names. So I uninstalled and
reinstalled JDK in the folder,"j2sdk" and tomcat in the folder, "tomcat".

3. Common and Hard-to-find ERROR: Type in SET JAVA_HOME=C:\JDK in the first
line after REM lines (REM lines are comment lines so they are ignored in
execution)in startup.bat file. * VERY IMPORTANT NOT TO HAVE SPACES
before and after "=" *

4. Include tomcat\lib\servlet.jar and tomcat\lib\jasper.jar(or 
jspengine.jar or somthing similar) in classpath. For example, add a line in 
c:\AUTOEXEC.BAT 
classpath=e:\java\tomcat\lib\jasper.jar;e:\java\tomcat\lib\servlet.jar;%classpath% 

5. Testing. run startup.bat. It should show 2 DOS console windows. 2nd DOS 
console window should show date and contextmanager blah blah in several 
lines. This means tomcat is running.
6. Testing Servlet. Write and compile a servlet. Move the compile servlet 
class file(let's say HelloWorld.class) to 
tomcat\webapps\root\web-inf\classes. In browser, go to 
URL:http//localhost:8080/servlet/HelloWorld . You can replace localhost 
with 127.0.0.1 or another IP and port number if you know. To test servlets 
in tomcat\webapps\test\web-inf\classes or 
tomcat\webapps\examples\web-inf\classes 
http://localhost:8080/test/servlet/HelloWorld or replace test with examples.
7. Testing JSP. Move a jsp file(let's say test.jsp) to 
tomcat/webapps/root/jsp. I created that folder. Go to 
URL:http://localhost:8080/jsp/test.jsp.

AW: Problems with change from 3.1 to 3.2

[Hanusch, Hartwig]

Hi there,

sorry - i should have written in english - sorry again,

so ... 
same think happens to me when using apache (without everything is fine on
tomcats port 8080).
This problem arises in relation to the session management ... when the get
method calls via html
the post method in the same servlet.
Whoever has a solution, please contact me - i am looking for that for over a
week now.

Cheers Hartwig

XMLC on Tomcat

[Christian Bjørnbak]

Hi

Using a XMLC (from Enhydra.org) based Servlet on Tomcat gives a
NoSuchMethodException.

Consulting the XMLC maillinglist gives the answer that it's proberly because
I use a level 1 DOM parser instead of the level 2 I should use...

As I'm starting Tomcat without a classpath the only DOM parser to override
the one in the xmlc.jar is the one in the tomcat xml.jar!?

Is it correct that it is a level 1 DOM parser in Tomcat 3.1? Is it changed
in newer Tomcats?

Can I change it? How?

Thanks,

Christian Bjørnbak

Tomcat won't serve JSP's from my web server's root directory

[Andreas Sheriff]

 Help!  I've installed Tomcat and the mod_jserv into Apache.  The examples
on
 the Tomcat side works, but it won't serve JSP pages from my Apache root
 directory.

 Here is a brief snippet of the automatically genrated config file:

 #Reference to .jsp added
 AddType text/jsp .jsp
 AddHandler jserv-servlet .jsp

 Is there anything else I need to make the engine process JSP files from my
 server's root directory?

 By the way, I'm coming from a JSERV environment.  Do I need a web
 application to serve my JSP's?

RequestDispatcher - use of

[Graeme Wallace]

Lets say I wanted to implement a MVC type architecture where all the
URLs are handled by a common controller servlet. By all URLs I mean
everything not just .jsp.

If I did this in Tomcat 3.1 the request dispatcher would let me forward
to a file (jsp, html or image) without further interpretation of the
resource name that i used.

Tomcat 3.2 however sends this resource back through the whole ball of wax
which leads to a couple of problems:-

1) How do you forward to a file and not have it interpreted.

2) The problem i reported the other day, in that other web applications will
get to handle the forward request if you happen to choose a file that has
the
same directory as the context URL.


Any pointers anyone ?

database connection problem when run nt service

[H Deng]

Hi everyone, I installed apache 1.3.4 and tomcat 3.2.1 on windows NT4.0
/windows 2000 and tried to set up tomcat to run NT service. I used
mod_jk.dll to test a simple java code to connect to a database and it
worked fine. However, when I tried to use jk_nt_service.exe, other part
of the the java program can run but the connection to the database can't
be establised. The following code gives a SQLException:

dbCon =3D DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:book");

but the same code worked fine with mod_jk.dll.

I tried to put rt.jar (which contains DriverManager.class) in the
classpath in wrapper.properties:

wrapper.class_path=3D$(wrapper.java_home)\jre\lib\rt.jar

but it did not help.

Please help me. Thanks in advance.

Re: Building output page by page.

[Mark Koscak]

Thanks for the input Dave,
 
I have a HTML form that sends a POST request to a Servlet 
class.  The servlet class interacts with another Java class that I use to 
access a MySQL database, and display the results.
 
Browser(FORM)-->Servlet-->JavaDBAccess&display-->Browser(HTML 
Display)
 
 
When accessing the database on the first instance a result set 
is returned.
 
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery(queryString);
 
Now that I have my first aggregation of data I enter a while 
loop
while( rs.next() )
{
    /* Perform my 
second query using fields from my earlier query
 
    /* Now that I have 
all my data I output my table row using the visibility
/* I have to 
my PrintWriter object. Passed earlier from my Servlet class.
}//end while
 
/* close any open connections and files 
/* and exit the method.
 
What I'm really after is similar functionality to say when the 
Google search engine returns a result set. 
For example say 100 results are returned. There are ten 
results per page with each page footer having
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10. Each number being a link to a group of 
ten records.

  Hi Mark,
   
  I'll repeat what I said in my 
  earlier
  response. You are not giving much
  information about what you are 
doing.
   
  You do mention making "database 
  queries".
   
  Lets assume you are accessing a DB 
  with
  sequel. In that case you can perform the 
  following
  type of query:
   
  select * from some_table where primaryKey > 
  min and primaryKey <= max;
   
  Where min and max are limits you set. 
  
  This would return a range of records between min 
  and max, including max.
   
  Translating into servlets:
   
  A design that comes easily to mind 
  would
  use a controller servlet and a JSP 
  page.
   
  The controller is going to receive a POST from 
  
  a webpage... The controller doesn't do 
  anything,
  just redirects output and passes on 
  parameters.
   
  form --> params( min, max) --> 
  controller.
   
  The controller redirects output to a 
  JSP:
   
  controller --> 
  sendRedirect("/some.jsp?min=101&max=200");
   
  The webpage is going to be produced as 
  output
  from a JSP called some.jsp:
   
  JSP --> (current data, 101 through 200) 
  and new form with code for next set of data.
   
  ...
  current data
  ...
   
  
  
  
  
  
  
   
   
  If this doesn't make any sense you might want 
  to
  read up on the technology before going much 
  farther.
  A good start would be Java Servlet Programming 
  by Hunter and Crawford.

At present it takes around 13sec to build a page of 1300 rows over 10MB

My aim is to reduce the time it takes to display an initial page to the

There is also a good chance that I will merge the two tables into one 
to reduce the database connection requirements.

sdk 1.3.0 fcs and netscape plugin problem

[Robert B. Easter]

This is off topic here, but maybe some knowledgable java coders in here can 
help me...

I've install Netscape 4.76 to /usr/local/netscape (fresh install) and the 
Blackdown SDK 1.3.0 FCS to /usr/local/j2sdk1.3.0

The instructions for installing the Netscape plugin that comes with sdk1.3.0 
says you just make a symlink like this:

cd /usr/local/netscape/plugins
ln -s /usr/local/j2sdk1.3.0/jre/plugin/i386/javaplugin.so javaplugin.so

I did that and it doesn't work.  When I run Netscape like this:

cd /usr/local/j2sdk1.3.0/jre
netscape JavaPluginControlPanel.html &

... I get a popup message in Netscape that it can't load libjvm.so:

java_vm: error in loading shared libraries: libjvm.so: cannot open shared 
object file: No such file or directory
Plugin: Plugin is not enabled or Java VM process has died.

I don't understand this, PLEASE help me! :)

Sorry for an off-topic post.

Before I can really get into Java development with Jakarta, I feel I at least 
need a working environment that includes the Netscape plugin.

Re: 3.2 + IIS: still having problems

[Winifred Sanchez]

 are you trying to setup tomcat to serve only jsp pages or all pages in a context 
(including html)? if you're serving all pages, try opening a page by giving the 
complete url. if you still get a 404 message, it means that you haven't set-up tomcat 
to communicate with IIS properly. try checking the registry keys.

if you're setting up tomcat to serve only the jsp pages and IIS to serve the html 
pages in the context, you need to add a virtual directory to IIS. Use the context name 
as the virtual directory name and it should point to where the context is located. You 
can use the IIS Console Manager to do this. Stop and Stop IIS and see if it works.

How to password-protect a servlet?

[Neil Aggarwal]

Hello:

I am using Apache 1.3.12 with Tomcat 3.1 and I wanted to 
password protect a servlet running on Tomcat with the 
Apache password mechanism.

In my httpd.conf file, I placed the following lines:

AuthName "VideoSearch Admin"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /usr/local/apache/conf/vidadmin.password
require valid-user


But, it did not ask me for a password. But, if I change the location
match to:

AuthName "VideoSearch Admin"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /usr/local/apache/conf/vidadmin.password
require valid-user


(The only thing I changed is the location to a directory called
test)

Everything works fine in this case.

Is Tomcat intercepting the URL before apache has a chance to
check if it needs to ask for a password?

Is there a way to use Apache's authentication for URLs that
point to Tomcat?

If not, does Tomcat have authentication capabilities?

Thanks,
Neil.

They are looking for this class because some client asked for it.  That's why it
shows up in the access log.

My guess would be it's an applet, but without knowing anything about the client
that issued this request, there is no way to be sure.

Another possibility is that you have a file like Net.class (note the case
difference) -- in Tomcat 3.1 (before the 3.1.1 update), filename matches were
not case senstive.  They are in 3.1.1, 3.2, and 3.2.1.

I personally do not see Tomcat evolving into a J2EE-type application server.
Rather, I think you'll see folks like JBoss, OpenEJB, Enhydra, etc. embedding
Tomcat as their web container.

This is the same approach that Sun used in the J2EE reference implementation --
version 1.2 includes a highly modified version of Tomcat 3.0, and version 1.3 is
going to include Tomcat 4.0.

That actually turns out not to be the case.

Tomcat 4.0 already has code to persist and restore sessions across a server
shutdown, or across the restart of a single application (triggered by a class
being changed in autoreload mode, or by an administrative command).  It uses a
single disk file to save sessions to, or restore them from.

The only gotcha is that your session attributes need to be Serializable to be
saved and restored -- but you're going to need to do this in order to take
advantage of a server that supports migrating sessions between server instances
anyway.

Q:forcing reload of a changed bean

[Joakim Verona]

hello,

is there a way to force reload of a recompiled bean?
ok, this is supposed to be automatic but it doesnt always work,
so is there a way to force tomcat to unload a class so that it
will be forced to reload the same class next time??

Re: Building output page by page.

[Dave Smith]

Hi Mark,
 
I'll repeat what I said in my 
earlier
response. You are not giving much
information about what you are doing.
 
You do mention making "database 
queries".
 
Lets assume you are accessing a DB 
with
sequel. In that case you can perform the 
following
type of query:
 
select * from some_table where primaryKey > min 
and primaryKey <= max;
 
Where min and max are limits you set. 
This would return a range of records between min 
and max, including max.
 
Translating into servlets:
 
A design that comes easily to mind 
would
use a controller servlet and a JSP 
page.
 
The controller is going to receive a POST from 

a webpage... The controller doesn't do 
anything,
just redirects output and passes on 
parameters.
 
form --> params( min, max) --> 
controller.
 
The controller redirects output to a 
JSP:
 
controller --> 
sendRedirect("/some.jsp?min=101&max=200");
 
The webpage is going to be produced as 
output
from a JSP called some.jsp:
 
JSP --> (current data, 101 through 200) and 
new form with code for next set of data.
 
...
current data
...
 






 
 
If this doesn't make any sense you might want 
to
read up on the technology before going much 
farther.
A good start would be Java Servlet Programming 
by Hunter and Crawford.

Re: J2EE & OpenEJB

[jdunn]

>From what I have read Enterprise level applications
are headed to  3 or 4 tiers. Tier 1 is the client (browser)
Tier two is the Web server coupled with a container for presentation logic.

Tier three is optional and is a container for business logic (ie.
Enterprise Java Beans )
Tier four is the database/ data repository.

The basic idea is to separate the data from the presentation (display)
tomcat is a web server add on that provides a container for the
presentation
logicby supporting JSP & servletts. It works with several web servers-
Apache, IIS among them.  It is built on java and has versions for
Linux/Unix and
windows. It can run on the same machine or a different machine than the
webserver.
In fact, different contex can be on different machines.

You can of course skip the EJB tier and put JDBC inside the jsp or
servletts
if you consider a full blown EJB container as overkill. If tomcat evolves,
 I expect it to merge with the web servers as built in. Not in the
direction
of EJB.   Also check out cocoon - an XML-Java document system.

3.2 + IIS: still having problems

[Carles Pi-Sunyer]

Hi,

I've been struggling for the last few days to integrate tomcat 3.2 with IIS.
My current situation is that I am getting the green up arrow for the filter,
but I'm getting 404 messages for the pages I'm requesting. 

I've tried the following advice without success:
1) use short directory names.
2) use the 3.1 workers.properties and uriworkermap.properties files
3) put the isapi_redirect.dll in a directory under the inetpub directory
4) reboot NT after changes

My IIS log files show this entry after a request:

20:17:11 127.0.0.1 GET /jakarta/isapi_redirect.dll+ 404

this is a little different then if I request a page that doesn't exist:

22:56:34 127.0.0.1 GET /notthere.html 404

What does the "+" after the isapi_redirect.dll mean?

Any other suggestions on getting this working?

Thanks,
Carles

New JSP based website

[Alan Wright]

Myself and a friend have just put a JSP based website up at www.free-minder.com
We have put a bit of background on the site up in the "About" section
and plan to put as much of the
source as we can in the New Year. I will post another message when
the source is available.
The site uses Interbase/Tomcat/JSP on a Cobalt RaQ4 and was developed
using JBuilder for the inter
active stuff and Perl for the batch stuff.
Please feel free to use the site as we intend to keep it free for use
and free of adverts.

Re: bug in getUserPrincipal()?

[Thom Park]

Hi Mark,

I was using IE(5.5) -  I started up a fresh session from the icon on the
desktop for each test.
I also repeated the tesit using Netscape 4.7 and saw the same behaviour.

 I noticed that in  org.apache.tomcat.core.RequestImpl.getUserPrincipal() that
there's a test that goes something like:

if ( principal == null ) {
   principal = new SimplePrincipal( getRemoteUser());
   }

What happens if the principal isn't null and we have a different user logged in.

I'll be honest and say that my knowlege of what the relationship between the
RequestImpl object and the session
is somewhat clouded but I would have thought that I wouldn't be seeing this
behavior here.

Any ideas what I could have got wrong configuration-wise?

-Thom

p.s. did anyone take a look at that 'bug in security-role-ref' posting I sent
out? I need to verify with the
tomcat-elders that the change I proposed made sense prior to patching my copy of
tomcat, or
wether I'm making a damn fool of my self ;-)

How did you "open" the second browser?  Did you ask your browser to spawn a

If you ask an IE browser to open a new window, the two "browsers" will share
the same cookie so tomcat will think they are the same user...

bug in getUserPrincipal()?

[Thom Park]

Dear All,

I'm seeing some odd behavior from getUserPrincipal(). I have a simple
servlet that calls:

getRemoteUser(), getUserPrincipal() and isUserInRole().

I've setup an appropriate web.xml and all is well until I access the
same servlet from two web-browsers on the same machine.

In the first  browser, I login as user test1, in the second browser I
log in as user tomcat.

In the first (correct) case, I see that the user is 'test1', the
principal is 'test1' and the user is in role.
In the second case, I see that the user is 'tomcat', but the principal
is still 'test1'.

It seems to me that this is a bug (but I could be misconfiguring/using
something wrong)..

Has anyone seen this behavior / can explain it such that I can
understand this - am I misunderstanding the
relationship between running servlets and connected clients?

file name with space characters

[mayan]

I noticed that tomcat has trouble serving files when file name includes the
SPACE character, such as "client architecture.doc". Apache handles this problem
very well. Did any body have the same problem before? How did you fix that?

I have very few files to start with, so I just manually changed all SPACEs to
underscores.

Thanks.

Does the "R( /examples + /servlet/DataServ + null)" bit mean that DataServ
recieved no arguments from the http line?  i.e. what does null refer to?

I am trying to call this servlet as:

http://fqdn:8080/examples/servlet/DataServ?collection=hoagy&type=music&page=1&version=screen&id=ATM-MC2-1-2-9

Is this the correct syntax to send arguments to the servlet?  This is how
the system I inherited does it w/ jserv.

It seems to me, based on the errors generated - that the servlet is not
recieving the arguments it should be

wierd problem reading remote mapped files in servlets

[Betty Chang]

Hi all -- has anyone seen this problem?   I running a servlet on 
Windows 2000, or NT, and it's trying to read a file that is mapped from a remote 
machine (e.g.:  m:\junk.txt, where m: is mapped to something on the 
network).  On Windows 2000, the drive will actually disconnect on me (when 
I run "net use", I see that)  and the program cannot read the file.
 
If I run the program as a main(), things work fine.
 
Any clues??
 
Thanks

Getting Tomcat to run

[Jon Pratt]

I downloaded Apache and got it to run.  I 
downloaded Tomcat 3.2.1 build and tried to compile the java files. Got tons of 
errors. Can anyone point me at a definitive step by step Howto?  

I did the following (from Tomcat - A Minimalistic 
User's guide):


  Download the zip/tar.gz/whatever file from http://jakarta.apache.org/downloads/binindex.html. 

  Unzip the file into some directory (say foo). This should create a new 
  subdirectory named "tomcat". 
  Change directory to "tomcat" and set a new environment variable 
  (TOMCAT_HOME) to point to the root directory of your Tomcat hierarchy. 
  
On Win32 you should type: "set TOMCAT_HOME=foo\tomcat" 
On UNIX you should type: for bash/sh "TOMCAT_HOME=foo/tomcat ; 
export TOMCAT_HOME"for tcsh "setenv TOMCAT_HOME foo/tomcat" 
  Set the environment variable JAVA_HOME to point to the root directory of 
  your JDK hierarchy, then add the Java interpreter to your PATH environment 
  variable. 
That's it! You can now execute Tomcat and it will run as a stand-alone (type 
1) servlet container...BUT that's not IT.

RE: J2EE & OpenEJB

[Alex Moffat]

I'm currently using a JBoss/Tomcat combination (the separate processes
version, not the all in one process version). It works fine with 3.1 tomcat.
I'm having problems with the 3.2 tomcat version related to how it finds, or
rather doesn't find, the classes that implement the beans' interfaces.

J2EE & OpenEJB

[dferugson]

I noticed a reference to tomcat on the openEJB site.
Then I went to apache.org and notice that the latest build of tomcat is
JNDI complient
Will tomcat evolve into an application server or is it already read for
this?

If tomcat is not going the direction of app server is anyone making use
of OpenEJB?
Anybody have experience with JBOSS?\

A database would be necessary if you want the session information
to persist across server shutdowns, but if you just want to share
it amongst web apps there are alternatives.  You could, for example,
set up a JNDI context where all web apps needing access to particular
session information could store and retrieve session variables.
There's a number of ways to share session without going to a database
solution.

Security, for one.  Multiple web apps running in the 
same application server are isolated from running into
each others' space.

s

serving PHP files with Tomcat 3.2

[Christian Wenz]

Hello,

after upgrading from 3.1 to 3.2.x, I have a problems if I want to server PHP
files - Tomcat returns the source code to the browser. I don't think I made
any mistake in web.xml - but can it be that web.xml has another
functionality in 3.2, and if so, where else can I commit changes?

Christian

CLASSPATH precedence

[David Miller]

Hi,

Two related questions regarding CLASSPATH precedence:

(A) If I place the same *.jar files (same names but different versions)
in both
$TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/WEBAPP_A/WEB-INF/lib
and in $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/WEBAPP_B/WEB-INF/lib

does the version of the *.jar files in WEBAPP_A or in WEBAPP_B take
precedence? Or does it depend on which context I am in (i.e., which
webapp tomcat is running). How does tomcat figure out which version of
the *.jar files to use? Do classes loaded from one *.jar file get
unloaded if I am running in a different context?

(B) (similar question but for system *.jar files vs tomcat *.jar files):

If I place the same *.jar files (same names but different versions) in
both
$TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/WEBAPP_A/WEB-INF/lib
and in my system CLASSPATH

which version of the *.jar files take precedence when I am running ?

Any answers/information regarding these two questions is greatly
appreciated, especially ones which shed some light on how tomcat figures
out which version of classes to load. Thanks,

-David-

Anyone seen any problems with Tomcat not shutting down cleanly, and still
binding connectors to ports? I have AJP12 and HTTP connectors up on 3.2.1
(same as last message, Sun Solaris 2.6, JDK 1.3.0). Sometimes its fine,
sometimes it fails - and a startup after a failed shutdown gets an
"AddressInUse" exception. Do you know what it is?

[Kitching Simon]
For this type of error, probably not. As I said, tomcat uses an XML
parser (probably
Xerces, as it's from apache..). So the place to look for any
documentation
on xml-parser-related errors is in the Xerces(?) documentation.

In general, the documentation on tomcat isn't very in-depth. That's
the price
you pay for using open-source; who wants to write docs when they
could
be coding :-) Having said that, people are working on it, so I guess
that the
situation will improve over time. For now, though, you need to
scratch the
old noggin a bit, search the email archives, and in extreme cases,
read the
code...and for those really tough cases, there's always this group.

Cheers,

Simon

For this type of error, probably not. As I said, tomcat uses an XML
parser (probably
Xerces, as it's from apache..). So the place to look for any
documentation
on xml-parser-related errors is in the Xerces(?) documentation.

In general, the documentation on tomcat isn't very in-depth. That's
the price
you pay for using open-source; who wants to write docs when they
could
be coding :-) Having said that, people are working on it, so I guess
that the
situation will improve over time. For now, though, you need to
scratch the
old noggin a bit, search the email archives, and in extreme cases,
read the
code...and for those really tough cases, there's always this group.

Cheers,

Trying to use Tomcat 3.2 and JBoss. After battling security problems I get
to the point where Tomcat attempts to load the ejb home interface, and it
won't, even thought the correct classes are in correct webapps subdirectory.
However, if I jar up the classes needed for the home interface and put that

Is this a knows problem or is there some config I've got wrong. BTW I've got
the same Tomcat and EJB server setup working fine under Tomcat 3.1

A good start might be to check out the LDAP Tomcat example from
Professional JSP from Wrox Press. They set up a fairly simple, but
workable LDAP security mechanism, though it is set up to work with an
older version of Tomcat. Perhaps with the permission of Mark Wilcox, the

Re: Apache-Tomcat configuration problems: PLEASE HELP

[Dave Smith]

Dave,

For me, the epiphany came when I figured out
that the server.xml Context needs to match up
with the apache directory you are serving out of.

See how your server.xml is mapping
the docBase to webapps/examples? That is
most likely a folder in the tomcat installation.
Apache doesn't know anything about that. To
synch them up, do something like this:

DocumentRoot for apache:  "i:/program files/Apache-1.3.14/htdocs"

in server.xml:




This should get you working.

Regards,

Dave

Problems with change from 3.1 to 3.2

[tobias . reinhardt]

Hi

I have an web-app, which was running in tomcat 3.1 without error.
I tried to deploy this web-app in tomcat 3.2, but i get the following exception:

java.lang.NullPointerException at 
org.apache.tomcat.facade.HttpSessionFacade.getValue(HttpSessionFacade.java:158)

I know, that tomcat3.2 is now casesensitiv and i am sure that this is not the 
reason.
What else did change from 3.1 to 3.2 or is this maybe a bug ?

Doing this goes quite a lot against the intent of what form-based authentication is 
all about.

Have you ever gone to a website with a protected area, where it popped up the 
username/password dialog box?
(In other words, you were using BASIC authentication).  What happens is that you type 
in your
username/password and then you are sent to whatever page you originally requested.

Form based login is supposed to work exactly like that.  The first time you try to 
access a page that is
protected by a security constraint, the servlet container will save your original 
request and present the
login page to you.  Then, when you are successfully authenticated, your *originally* 
requested page is
displayed.

You will be able to tell whether the user is authenticated or not by checking the 
values returned by
request.getRemoteUser() and request.getUserPrincipal().

Load Balancing / multiple mount points

[Shahed Ali]

Hi,

I am trying to load balance a virtual host running on apache 1.3.14 with
tomcat 3.2.


I have setup multiple worker threads and have Multiple JkMount points for
the same virtual
host pointing to the same mount point.

i.e
I have the following directives under the same apache virtual host (mapped
to tomcat context) directive.
JkMount /*.jsp ajp13a
JkMount /*.jsp ajp13b
JkMount /*.jsp ajp13c

I am running multiple instances of Tomcat from the same TOMCAT_HOME, but
with different server.xml files and
each server.xml file has its own log and work directories and the workers
listen on different ports.

Is this an acceptable way of doing Load Balancing for 1 website / context ?

Are there any docs on how to detrmine the load balance factor etc ?

Thanks
Shahed.

resource we are trying to get at, something like an event-handler for the auth event.

i cant really find a provission for such a function, other than having some session 
variable
to check against, and including the same piece of code in every page.

This is doable, but is there any more elegant solution?

I will need to make my own security interceptor at some stage. Should I take care of 
this need in
the interceptor?

RE: Bizarre problem -- works fine, then doesn't

[Ethan Michaels]

I have restarted Tomcat again this morning, and all the material that was
in the logs is no longer there (since the restart). That seems a little
weird. Is that normal?

Anyway, I recall that none of them had anything that looked like an error
message. The jasper log recorded a series of requests and the parameters
that were sent. The servlet log just had a series of about 15 entries that
began with

Context log path= ...

I don't remember exactly what was in the Tomcat log. I'll have to wait til
the thing stops working again and take a look. Meanwhile, I'll explore this
dropped database connection concept. Maybe there's something to that.

Thanks,

Ethan

RE: Apache doesn't start with mod_jk

[Dave Newton]

Here's the relevent portion:

"Working with mod_jk" at
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/jakarta-tomcat/src/doc/mod_jk-howto.html

It sez:

"Your build may fail because the object files from the ../jk directory have
been compiled to the current directory, rather than their source directory.
Running gcc -shared -o mod_jk.so *.o should finish the build."

Hope that helps!

RE: multiple JVMs: how to manage tomcat-apache.conf?

[James Morgenstein]

George-

Instead of using the auto-generated tomcat-apache.conf, you could take a
copy of the tomcat-apache.conf for each of your configurations and rename it
to something else, e.g., tomcat-apache.conf.prod and tomcat-apache.conf.dev.

You could then include your renamed apache configuration files in the
httpd.conf.

RE: At Value must be quoted. Error

[Kitching Simon]

Hi Don,

It looks to me like the XML parser that tomcat uses to read the file is
objecting to something in the file. Minor typos are sometimes damn
hard to spot :-)

I suggest:
(a) 
try commenting out blocks of the server.xml file, and restarting.
of course, tomcat won't *run* properly with only half a config file, but
you should be able to see when the config file at least parses.
By the old divide-and-conquer method, you should be able to narrow
things down to the point you can spot the problem,
(b)
If you have made only minor changes to the default file, you can try
using "diff" to compare the version in the distribution with the one that
doesn't work.
(c) 
if all else fails, try posting the server.xml file to this group...

Cheers,

Simon

TomCat into NT environment

[Jose Euclides da Silva Junior - DIGR.O]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-

What is the way to use TomCat into NT 4.0 Server? Just as a Stand-alone
web-server, or as a NT service or even mixed with IIS. I think that this
last option is the worst...

Re: Standalone Tomcat

Try using http://localhost:8080/servlet/MyTestServlet

If you're using tomcat and have not changed the default port, you'll have to use
port 8080 as above.

Dear Ladies and Gentleman,
i have a problem to run Tomcat 3.2.1 as Standalone-Server, i mean wihout a
Web-Server. I can start the Tomcat-Server, but i can't execute the servlets in
the webbrowser (for example with command "http://localhost/servlet/MyTestServlet
").
Reportedly to the Guideline of Tomcat 3.2.1 its possible to run it without a
WebServer.

Stand-alone servlet containers
These are an integral part of the web server. This is the case when using a
Java-based web server, for example the servlet container that is part of the
JavaWebServer. Stand-alone is the default mode used by Tomcat.
Most web servers, however, are not Java-based, which leads us to the next two
container types

How Do I Install the Binary Version of Tomcat?
Very simple. You should:
*Download the zip/tar.gz/whatever file from <
http://jakarta.apache.org/downloads/binindex.html>.
*Unzip the file into some directory (say foo). This should create a new
subdirectory named "tomcat".
*Change directory to "tomcat" and set a new environment variable
(TOMCAT_HOME) to point to the root directory of your Tomcat hierarchy.
   On Win32 you should type:
   "set TOMCAT_HOME=foo\tomcat"
   On UNIX you should type:
   for bash/sh "TOMCAT_HOME=foo/tomcat ; export TOMCAT_HOME"
   for tcsh "setenv TOMCAT_HOME foo/tomcat"
*Set the environment variable JAVA_HOME to point to the root directory of
your JDK hierarchy, then add the Java interpreter to your PATH environment
variable.
That's it! You can now execute Tomcat and it will run as a stand-alone (type 1)
servlet container.

I execute this steps (for Windows), but i can't execute the servlets.
What must i do?

Common Tomcat Installation Bugs Fix in Windows OS

[isu:jwkoh]

These are all the errors I encountered and fixed overnight during Tomcat
installation. ):-(

1. Error Message, "Out of environment space:" --> right click on startup.bat
and click on property and click memory tab and choose initial environment
drop-down box and choose 2048 or bigger. It doesn't have to be 2048+ but a
bigger number has the better chance of working. You can choose property by
clicking the top left corner of the console window.

For reference, I saw in a website a guy says - To solve the 'Out of
Environment Space' error you must edit CONFIG.SYS (again, the old MS-DOS not
so defunct operating system presence). You must add the following line:
SHELL=C:\COMMAND.COM /E:8192 /P
please replace C:\COMMAND.COM to the correct location if you moved
COMMAND.COM to another location. The "/E:8192" allocates 8k to be used by
environment variables. The maximum allowed is 32k (35736). The last
parameter, "/P", is used to make this COMMAND.COM instance resident in
memory and owner of main environment space (from which every process
receives a copy).

2. Error Message, "only DOS 8.3 names may be used in TOMCAT_HOME!"--> You
are using Windows Explorer folder name find dos name of the folder(=
directory) using DIR command in DOS console. If you have long dir name in
windows explorer such as "jakarta-tomcat-3.2.1", it will show up as jakart~1
in DOS. Use this 8 character long name.

2a. Use simple folder(=directory) names for JDK(=J2SDK 1.3) and TOMCAT. I
used default names "j2sdk1.3" and "jakarta-tomcat-3.2.1" They caused
conflicts in *.bat files when starting tomcat. Especially DON'T USE "." in
those folder names. USE 8 characters-long name, or find matching DOS DIR
name for the windows explorer long folder names. So I uninstalled and
reinstalled JDK in the folder,"j2sdk" and tomcat in the folder, "tomcat".

3. Common and Hard-to-find ERROR: Type in SET JAVA_HOME=C:\JDK in the first
line after REM lines (REM lines are comment lines so they are ignored in
execution)in startup.bat file. * VERY IMPORTANT NOT TO HAVE SPACES
before and after "=" *

Yes i did read the spec ( section 10.2 ), it seems that the type of

AW: Apache/Tomcat 3.2.1 session error - help!

[Hanusch, Hartwig]

Hi Henri,

indeed am i (trying to) use ajp13 with jk_mod but the error is reproducible
with jserv to.

Here are the code snipples 
->

public void doGet(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res) throws
ServletException, IOException
{
HttpSession currentSession = req.getSession(true);

if (!(sessions_.contains(currentSession)))
{
System.out.println("in DoGET: found new session");
sessions_.add(currentSession);
currentSession.setAttribute("phase", "A");
System.out.println("session: "+ currentSession);
}

if(req.getParameter("user")!= null)
currentSession.setAttribute("user",
req.getParameter("user"));


if (everything OK)
{
out.println("");
out.println("");
out.println("");
out.println("submit ");

}
}


public void doPost (HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res) throws
ServletException, IOException
{
System.out.println("in DoPost");
System.out.println("req.getSession ->" + req.getSession(false));
}

so that gives two different session objects (), and req.getSession(false)
shouldnt return a new session!

Thanks for your help :)

Cheers Hartwig

Apache-Tomcat configuration problems: PLEASE HELP

[Dave Emerson]

Hi, I've been trying to get Tomcat and Apache configured to avoid the need 
to reference the port number in the URL.  Instead of 
http://localhost:8080/, I want to be able to say 
http://localhost/servlet/.   Isn't that what mod_jk is supposed to do for 
me?  At the moment I just like to get the same display of the default 
static web page that displays when I enter http://localhost:8080/.  Am I 
missing something fundamental here?

I've followed mod_jk-howto, apache-tomcat-howto, workers-howto.  My 
configuration is entirely vanilla.  Tomcat works fine standalone.  Apache 
works fine standalone (including virtual hosts).

My software is as follows:
OS -> Win2000 Server
Apache -> 1.3.14
JKD -> 1.3
Tomcat -> 3.2.1

AW: JDBC Realm documentation

[Kurt, Oliver]

I found, what I did wrong !!!

The security-specific entries in the web.xml file MUST be in a
webapplication-specific web.xml file under WEB-INF and not in /conf/web.xml.

This is - for someone who is familiar with all the stuff - totally clear.
But for a beginner it isn't. 

However, muchas gracias Ignacio

Oliver Kurt


ps. The url-mapping *.jsp is valid.

>   *.jsp

I dont have the spec in the wall... but i want to remember that spec
does not have defined this kind of wildcard matching (with the wildchar
as prefix ) it only deals with wildchars as suffix.., so your need to
rewrite your url-pattern ..

Re: Tomcat + Windows 2000?

[Harold Trammel]

I am having similar problems with Tomcat. I have been running Apache for 
sometime without problems. I downloaded Tomcat 3.2, followed the 
directions, and had the same "flashing" experience stated here.

I edited the tomcat.bat file and added the -verbose option to the runServer 
command. This results in the following:

--- RESULTS ---

D:\Tomcat\bin>tomcat run
Including all jars in d:\Tomcat\\lib in your CLASSPATH.

Does this help anyone solve the problem?  Conflicting java 
classes?  Missing jar files?

Thanks

Did you use ajp13 ?
If so could you send example code ?

Apache/Tomcat 3.2.1 session error - help!

[Hanusch, Hartwig]

Hi,

i still have my problem using tomcat 3.2.1 (release) with 
apache. Sessions are mixed up when calling the same 
servlet but using get/post method (get calls post and 
the other way around).
Problem only arises when using tomcat with apache - 
not when using tomcat standalone.

Any hints? 
Cheers 
Hartwig

Graeme,
No, the forwarded request is treated as the same request.
