How can I make the servlet mapping of Tomcat work with Apache http server?

[Youzhi Fan]

I read Craig R. McClanahan's article "Developing
Applications With Tomcat" coming with Tomcat. The
article gives a sample application also coming with
Tomcat. The sample application uses a servlet mapping.
The servlet mapping works fine with Tomcat. But it
does not work when I use Apache http server with
Tomcat together. Anybody can try it which is used at
the link of a html file to a servlet. Author seggests
me to get help at here. web.xml, httpd.conf, and
tomcat-apache.conf are attached. Can anyone give me a
hand? Your assistance is appreciated.

Re: Tomcat 4.0b5/Apache/mod_webapps/JSP - NO GO!

[Jeff Hoare]

Hi,
I don't know if you have came across this or not but in the tomcat directory 
src/connectors/doc there is a warp.html page, as well as an apache1.3.html 
that may help. So how did u get the mod_webapps.so library to work. Whenever, 
I build and try to run it I get a pthread_sigmask unresolved symbol error?
I'd appreciate any help

RE: JDBCRealm Errors with Tomcat/4.0-b5

[Ken Torimaru]

Ok, first one solved.
mm.mysql-2.0.4-bin.jar should be in "{$CATALINA_HOME}/server/lib" not
"{$CATALINA_HOME}/lib"

My Realm is setup as follows:

Further, I've have a simple JSP which can access the data in question.

I've got no clue why this isn't working?

Any ideas?

Re: Problems with a simple JSP and mySQL connect

[Simon Chan]

This is actually a mysql question.  What you can do as follows:

insert a row into mysql.user such that host = larry, user = root, password = 
 (you can copy from the
existing row -- localhost | root | ... )

Re: Problem with JDBCRealm, Sessions and Cookies.

[manybooby]

I just re-installed the examples to try and verify if something wierd is
going on.  In the sessions example, when I view with Mozilla or Galeon
the shopping cart does not remember the last entry.  I get no prompt for
a cookie.  (I know it is not the browsers because plenty of other sites
have no problem setting cookies)...

But when I use lynx the cookies are set and the cart works properly.  I
am not sure what is going on, but this appears to be some sort of bug.
Surely, others have had this same experience.  Anyone out there using
Mozilla???  Should I submit this as a bug?

Re: Problem with JDBCRealm, Sessions and Cookies.

[manybooby]

I just tried to login with lynx and I was startled to discover a prompt
to set a cookie.  This is odd because whenever I try the same thing with
either galeon or mozilla (with the cookie setting to recieve all) no
cookie is set...  Not sure what is going on.

Any ideas?

Re: Problems with a simple JSP and mySQL connect

[Matt Read]

Your code should probably look something like this. Note there is no
connection between Unix account and mySql accounts.

Connection con =
DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://larry/howlerdb?user=root&password=
rootpassword");

or if you're trying to log in as howler

Connection con =
DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://larry/howlerdb?user=howler&passwor
d=winston2644");

Either should work as long as you're connecting from localhost.

Matt.

ajp13 slowish

[Martin Lichtin]

Hi,

anyone have a fix for the ajp13 sluggishness?
The problem is described under

http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1713

It hasn't been fixed yet, as far as I can tell (will try 3.2.3).

Thanks,
Martin

Replacing tools.jar with Jikes for JSP compilation

[Gautam Sinha]

This seems to be a popular question.  There have been some excellent
postings before to solve the dilemma, and some of them involved modifying
the tomcat source code.

Here are the steps for replacing tools.jar with Jikes for Tomcat 3.2.1 on
the Windows 2000 platform, without modifying the source code for Tomcat.

1. Download jikes.  It is currently available from
http://oss.software.ibm.com/developerworks/opensource/jikes/ under the IBM
Open License.
2. Add the path to the jikes.exe executable to the system PATH variable.
3. Assuming you already have the JRE (Java Runtime Environment) available,
add rt.jar to the Java classpath variable (usually found in
JAVA_HOME/jre/lib).
4. Paste the following code anywhere between the  and 
tags of the web.xml file contained in the WEB-INF directory of your web
application (not the web.xml in tomcat_home/conf).  If you don't have a
web.xml for your application, you can create one by putting the following
code between  and  tags and placing it in the WEB-INF
directory of your application context.

  

  
  jsp
  

  
  org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet
  

  
  jspCompilerPlugin

org.apache.jasper.compiler.JikesJavaCompiler
  

  
  -2147483646
  


  

  
  jsp
  
  
  *.jsp
  


(It is important to clean out precompiled JSP files in Tomcat's work
directory and to search throughout the local hard drives for copies of
tools.jar and temporarily rename them before you can establish that jikes is
indeed being used to compile the JSP).

Troubleshooting:

1. It is safe to ignore the message(s) of the following format:  Ctx():
Removing duplicate servlet jsp
jsp(org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet/null)
2. If you get a message like "Location: /myapp/edituser.jsp -- Internal
Servlet Error: -- org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class
for JSP at org.apache.jasper.compiler.Compiler.compile(Compiler.java:254)"
followed by a stack trace, most likely the system did not find "jikes.exe"
in its search path.
3. If you get a message like "Location: /myapp/edituser.jsp -- Internal
Servlet Error: -- org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class

Your connection string should be
jdbc:mysql://localhost/howlerdb?user=howler&password=winston2644
if howlerdb is your db name

Simon,

I miss read your question. The host machine is "larry" and the db
account I use is "root" I hope that clarifies things.

Thanks again

Re: Problems with a simple JSP and mySQL connect

[Matt Read]

You'll need to show the code you use to establish the connection, in the
meantime here's an example of some lines of code I use to establish a
connection that works, hopefully this will help...

import java.sql.*;

public class MyClass {

public MyClass() throws SQLException {
Class.forName("org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver").newInstance();
Connection  c =
DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://mymachine.mydomain.com/mySqlDataba
seName?user=myUserName&password=myPassword");
}

}

Problems with a simple JSP and mySQL connect

[Howler D. Wolfe]

>   

Hello Everyone,

I apologize if this has been answered in a previous post. I've been digging through 
old posts and
and searching on the net for an answer to this problem.

I am runnin Tomcat 3.2.2 and Apache 1.3.19 and MySQL (I think the latest version).  I 
am able to 
run the examples without a hitch. I am new to Java, JSP and MySQL, I have created a 
database with 
two tables, when I try to use the MySQL driver to connect to the database I get the 
following error.

I think I get this error because I don't have a user other than root setup on MySQL. 
In my searching
for an answer, I read about using the URL of the MySQL db as part of getConnection().  
I tried this
and it failed due to the MySQL port not being open on my firewall. After I opened the 
appropriate 
port, I got the same error.

What have I failed to do when setting up MySQL? I've installed it, ran the grants, I 
think I've done
what was supposed to be done.

I've used the user id of "root" with the password I set for it.

Partial Error Text follows:
*
java.sql.SQLException: Server configuration denies access to data source*

Thanks in advance

On the fist page of Wall Street Journal today there is an article stating 
that Microsoft is dropping support for java in its WindowsXP.  XP 
customers will have to download java plugin to execute java code (applets I 
suppose the article means).  Not only that, Windows will tighten 
security so much so that even java applets might be viewed as possible 
security threats!
Once I read that , I could not remember reading any thing this stupid for 
a long time:
1. How on earth is java a security threat?  Compared to word and 
other Microsoft Macros any thing is secure, I think!!
2. Microsoft says that users can change security settings on their 
XP/Browser and can just download a java support.  Is Microsoft OR any 
one in his/her right mind expect users to do this.  A process that 
requires computer savvys and more time than it might be worth it for 
some.
3.  I feel this is the end for client side java.  Do you 
agree?

  that Microsoft is dropping support for java in its WindowsXP.  XP 
  customers will have to download java plugin to execute java code (applets I 
  suppose the article means).  Not only that, Windows will tighten 
  security so much so that even java applets might be viewed as possible 
  security threats!
  Once I read that , I could not remember reading any thing this stupid for a 
  long time:
  1. How on earth is java a security threat?  Compared to word and other 
  Microsoft Macros any thing is secure, I think!!
  2. Microsoft says that users can change security settings on their 
  XP/Browser and can just download a java support.  Is Microsoft OR any one 
  in his/her right mind expect users to do this.  A process that requires 
  computer savvys and more time than it might be worth it for some.
  3.  I feel this is the end for client side java.  Do you 
  agree?

changing classpath

[Cromer, Deborah]

hi,

I have recently downloaded the tdk for Turbine, and have been writting an
application to using turbine. The tdk includes catalina which I am using
with no problems. However, I now want to use some classes which are stored
ina  general class repository (not under any directory associated with
tomcat/turbin/catalina) and want to make these visible. I have been havign a
lot of problems with this.

After postign to the turbine-users mailing list I have been told that I
should not be modifying the catalina classpath (doign this has presented me
with various problems anyway). I think I need to change the tomcat
classpath, but am unsure where this gets set. I am currently starting up
catalina using th catalina.sh script which comes witht he tdk (and is
attached below) 

How do I make the classe sin the repository visible?

RE: IIS5 + isapi_redirect.dll GREEN ARROW

[John Sullivan]

Title: RE: IIS5 + isapi_redirect.dll  GREEN ARROW





I can think of two things that you should try.  isapi_redirect.dll needs access to two registry settings worker_mount_file and worker_file.  Worker_mount_file points to uriworkermap.properties and worker_file points to workers.properties.  Make sure there are no spaces in the keys data.  Even if the values in the properties files are incorrect the filter should start.

Second where have you added the filter?  in the IIS Service tool add the filter at the machine level not at the individual web site.  Choose properties and edit the master properties.

Hope this helps!

RE: Problem with JSP mapping to subdirectory

[Sampige, Srinivas]

Jann
 Somebody did reply to my question .Here is what i got...
--
Hello:
>From what I can tell:
(1) In your PronServlet.java service() method, you are manually parsing the
form data using the stream returned by request.getInputStream()
(2) In the JSP page, Tomcat is attempting to parse the form data again.
The servlet API docs specify that you can only call getInputStream() once
on a request, and that doing so may cause problems reading parameters, so I
suspect that's the source of your problem. I'm not entirely sure why the
generated JSP servlet is trying to read the parameters. Perhaps you're using
the parameters in the JSP page, or perhaps the JSP engine just reads it by
default, which would seem reasonable to me.
The simple workaround would be not to parse the form data in your
PronServlet, but to just use request.getParameter() and let Tomcat handle
it. That's the way I've done it in the past, and haven't had problems.

URL rewriting, cookies and form based auth

below.

I have also tried all upper case for "jessionid"

I want to use cookies, but I have to support people without, by using URL

appreciate any help.

Subject: Bug in Tomcat ? - forwarding HTTP request from a Servlet to a
JSP


Hi 
 Iam using tomcat 3.2.1 and i have a servlet "PronServlet" that extends from
HttpServlet . Now i have a servlet "LogonServlet" that extends from servlet
"PronServlet" (which has got common functionality like checking for a valid
session ;has common methods that perform functionality like forwarding HTTP
request to another url). In "LogonServlet" i have some code that does some
processing and finally forwards the HTTP request to a JSP .Iam getting an
error which iam pasting below.I ran the same application on JRun and it
works fine .I noticed that if i removed the subclassing and instead
subclassed LogonServlet directly from HttpServlet then the application works
fine by forwarding the request to the next JSP .Here is the console output
.Iam attaching the source code of
 PronServlet and LogonServlet .Anybody from the Tomcat dev team any
ideas. ?

RE: The 4.0b5 doesn't recognize a servlet class

[Vernon Wu]

Hi, Aditya,
 

I think you mean the two jar files: jasper-runtime.jar and namingfactory.jar in the tomcat4.0/lib.

I use the JBuilder as the IDE where I can check any syntax errors or not. I have j2ee.jar inside of the JBuilder library setting. When I want to deploy it, I compile it again using ant, where the j2ee.jar is from the jdk1.3 directory. After I change the j2ee.jar point to the common/lib (a copy of the jar is in the directory), and include the two jars from tomcat/lib, and recompile it, the result is the same: recycle the tomcat and have the following error  messages:

Catalina.start: LifecycleException:  start: :  java.lang.NoSuchMethodErrorLifecycleException:  start: :  java.lang.NoSuchMethodError

Do I get the message right?

 

Thanks.

RE: SSL with Tomcat/mod_jserv via Apache

[John Bazeley]

You can run apache/mod_ssl/mod_jserv/tomcat quite happily. I've got
a box here doing just that. Solaris 2.6/tomcat 3.2/apache 1.3.14/
mod_ssl 2.7.1.

Without mod_jk you lose certain pieces of information, though, like
I don't think your servlet knows whether it was called via SSL or
regular http. Mine don't care, though, so neither do I.

Do you need a copy of httpd.conf/tomcat.conf etc?

hi all,

We have just setup win2k server + iis5 + jdk1.3.1 + tomcat3.2.2  and have
done the installations as per the manual (help file ).

We are not able to get the green arrow up for isapi_redirect.dll filter. We
have tried all possibilities. Even we tried the old isapi_redirect.dll file
which we are currently using on our nt4.0. We have double checked the
registry settings, but no luck.

Can anyone throw light on this.

Tomcat 4.0 redirectPort question, how to redirect to SSL?

[Jonathan Eric Miller]

I read in another message that was posted to this list that you can use the
redirectPort variable in server.xml for a connector to have a non-SSL
connection redirected to a SSL connection?

Can someone tell me what other settings I need to use in order to get this
to work?

Basically, what I want to do is make it so that all connections using
http:// get redirected to https://. i.e. I want to require SSL. However, I
still want the Web server to listen on port 80 that way if I use forgets to
enter the 's' at the end of https they will still get to the right place.

Ideally, I would also like to require 128-bit encryption as well, but, if
anyone can answer the question about redirection, I would be greaty
appreciative.

Anyone know how to do this?

Also, I'm wondering if the variables and values for web.xml and server.xml
are documented somewhere? For example, I'm thinking that maybe there is a
 setting that you may need to use that specifies that
access to a servlet needs to be over SSL or something?

Re: Tomcat 4.0b5/Apache/mod_webapps/JSP - NO GO!

[Mark Dzmura]

Adam:

Thanks for the info.  We will await the new version of mod_webapp,
but I'm hard pressed to see how it is at fault.  If the DefaultServlet
can successfully hand content back to Apache via mod_webapp, why
can't the JSP servlet do so also??  Logically the problem would appear to
be elsewhere.

AFAIK we have followed the instructions in server.xml.  Except
for the references to "WebAppMount" (it seems to have been replaced
by "WebAppDeploy" and causes a syntax error), we are doing what
the directions here recommend.

As I said in the earlier letter, our Apache loads up with mod_webapp
with no reported errors, and we are able to serve static HTML content
through Apache and Tomcat (handled by DefaultServlet).

The problem is that whatever content gets pushed out of an executing
JSP is "dropped on the floor" and Apache sends back content to the
browser which is interpreted as "document has no data".

Guess it's back to the source code...

RE: JSP's not finding classes in WEB-INF

[Will England]

Hmmm.

According to Dr. Mel Martinez on the tomcat-dev list, Jasper *cannot* see
the web-inf/classes part of your web app for compliation.  SO, I guess the
solution is to pre-compile the JSP's (somehow) and leave the compiled
.class files in the TOMCAT_HOME/work directory.

Then, we're *screwed* if a customer wants to modify one of the JSP files
on their server.  

Grrr.  

Ideas?

Generate Excel File

[Erin Lester]

Hi, I'm trying to generate an excel file as the response returned from a
servlet.  I have set the response's content type to
"application/vnd.ms-excel" and this seems to cause excel to open.  The
data I return is comma separated values.  

Once upon a time I read on a newsgroup (don't think it was this one) that
someone had done the same thing and excel interpreted the data as a csv
file and it displayed nicely in excel.  Unfortunately excel seems to think
that the entire row of comma separated values that I'm sending it is one
single cell (not a row of cells which are the values between the commas).

Can anyone tell me where I'm going wrong or of another way to generate an
excel spreadsheet using JSP?

Thanks!

Sure seems that way.  The Coocon list has about 300 posts to it about

Currently, the classes are in a structure like this:

WEB-INF/classes/com/layoutwizard/server/query/
WEB-INF/classes/com/layoutwizard/server/
WEB-INF/classes/com/layoutwizard/util/

and so on. 

So, that's not going to help - it's already all layed out via packages.

Thanks for the idea, tho!

Look at your classpath as echoed by the tomcat script - most likely you
have pointers in there to the servlets and beans directories.  The tomcat
script adds your environment classpath to the end of the classpath it
dynamically generates.  

I've taken that part of the script out, so that the only things in the
classpath are the jar files in TOMCAT_HOME/lib.

No logs, just the errors.  If you want the whole error text I can send it
to you.  Won't be very helpful, tho, all it boils down to is "I can't find
your classes!"

RE: JSP's not finding classes in WEB-INF

[Randy Layman]

I would like you to site a source, since I have code that proves the
contrary.  The key is that if the classes are not in a package, then you
must explicitly import them.  They are still usable, and can be found, but
you must explicitly import them instead of using a wildcard to import them.

The reason for this (so that some of you might be able to reason
about your problems in the future so that you don't have to keep asking
here) is that your JSP is converted to a .java file.  The package of that
.java file is generated based upon its path inside of your web application.
Why you might ask?  So that you can have multiple JSPs with the same file
name in different directories.  So, this generated file has a package that
is not the default (blank) package.  In Java classes can only see the
classes in their own package and those that are imported.  Therefore, unless
you import the package-less classes you can't use them.  And Java doesn't
allow import * to mean import all package-less classes, which is why a
wildcard won't work.

I have no idea if this solves the original problem, but I needed to
contradict a mistaken or misleading answer.

Problem with JDBCRealm, Sessions and Cookies.

I am having some trouble with JDBCRealm.  It loads correctly but any
attempt I make to login is greeted with this message on the console.

2001-07-18 09:59:15 - Ctx(  ): From login without a session

I assumed this means I have a problem with my session and cookies.  I am
testing all of this with Galeon and Mozilla so I turned off the cookie
manager and allowed all cookies. No luck.

Then I wrote a test servlet with this snippet...

HttpSession session = request.getSession(true);
session.setAttribute("testObject",testObject);
if(session.isNew()){
System.out.println("User hasn't set a cookie");
} 

Still no luck. So I wrote this...

Cookie test = new Cookie("test", "testy");
test.setComment("testies");
response.addCookie(test);

Nothing works.  I don't get any prompt for a cookie and neither of my
browsers has any mention of a cookie.

I'm running tomcat3.2 on localhost:8080 with no apache and my

Subject: RE: Bug in Tomcat ? - forwarding HTTP request from a Servlet to
a JSP


Srinivas:

I can't comment on Jrun or Weblogic, since I haven't used them.  Normally I
figure that since Tomcat is the officially sanctioned reference
implementation, if it doesn't work on Tomcat, it just plain doesn't work,
even if it does work on other containers.

Here's what the servlet API docs say about getParameter in
ServletRequest.getParameter() :
"If the parameter data was sent in the request body, such as occurs with an
HTTP POST request, then reading the body directly via getInputStream() or
getReader() can interfere with the execution of this method."

I take that to mean it may cause problems, but won't necessarily, depending
on the implementation.

Can you try out the workaround I suggested and see if it solves the
problem?  If it doesn't, then we're on the wrong debugging track anyway.

Hello:

From what I can tell:

(1) In your PronServlet.java service() method, you are manually parsing the
form data using the stream returned by request.getInputStream()
(2) In the JSP page, Tomcat is attempting to parse the form data again.

The servlet API docs specify that you can only call getInputStream() once
on a request, and that doing so may cause problems reading parameters, so I
suspect that's the source of your problem.  I'm not entirely sure why the
generated JSP servlet is trying to read the parameters. Perhaps you're using
the parameters in the JSP page, or perhaps the JSP engine just reads it by
default, which would seem reasonable to me.

The simple workaround would be not to parse the form data in your
PronServlet, but to just use request.getParameter() and let Tomcat handle
it.  That's the way I've done it in the past, and haven't had problems.

Subject: Bug in Tomcat ? - forwarding HTTP request from a Servlet to a

Hi
 Iam using tomcat 3.2.1 and i have a servlet "PronServlet" that extends from
HttpServlet . Now i have a servlet "LogonServlet" that extends from servlet
"PronServlet" (which has got common functionality like checking for a valid
session ;has common methods that perform functionality like forwarding HTTP
request to another url). In "LogonServlet" i have some code that does some
processing and finally forwards the HTTP request to a JSP .Iam getting an
error which iam pasting below.I ran the same application on JRun and it
works fine .I noticed that if i removed the subclassing and instead
subclassed LogonServlet directly from HttpServlet then the application works
fine by forwarding the request to the next JSP .Here is the console output
.Iam attaching the source code of
 PronServlet and LogonServlet .Anybody from the Tomcat dev team any
ideas. ?

Re: Tomcat 4.0b5/Apache/mod_webapps/JSP - NO GO!

[Adam Fowler]

Hi,

AFAIK (memory lapses are usual!)

WARP is for apache 2.0
mod_webapp is for 1.3.x

Install instructions are in server.xml. You'll need to do something special 
to apache, it is detailed in server.xml

I'm having this trouble too, and I need to write a chapter on the damned 
thing!

put your classes into a package.  Put the package in WEB-INF\classes\pkgname

RE: JSP's not finding classes in WEB-INF

[Jann VanOver]

No, this is not right.  Bean classes ARE SUPPOSED TO go into
WEB-INF\classes.  As I mention in another post, there is a bug in Tomcat
that keeps them from being found unless they are in a package.  Put classes
into packages and put the packages in WEB-INF\classes and everything works
fine!

I assume these are your bean classes. These should be
put under the WEB-INF/lib directory rather than the
classes directory. The classes directory is ment only
for un-jarred servlet classes that have been declared
in the web.xml file.

you donot have to specify WEB-INF/classes in the

Put any servlet jars, beans, and required
non-statndard libraries under the lib folder (like
log4J, or xalan)

RE: JSP's not finding classes in WEB-INF

[Jann VanOver]

Okay -- I can't quote the source, but I read recently that this is a Tomcat
bug.

If you put .class files into tomcat's WEB-INF\classes directory they go into
an "unnamed package" and then can't be found when they're needed.

Put your classes into a package -- put the package hierarchy in
WEB-INF\classes and then it will work.

EG. if you put a class DoIt into a package named mine
  WEB-INF\classes\mine\DoIt.class

If you have just .class files then your JSP should work after placing those

place them under WEB-INF/lib . Hope this helps

Ok - running Tomcat 3.2 on SunOS 2.7, with Java 1.2.

However, every time I hit a JSP page, it gives a 500 error about how it

The classpath does *not* contain the WEB-INF/classes directory.

Getting classes12.zip into classpath for Solaris

[Kershaw, David]

Hi

I am using Tomcat 3.2.1, Apache 1.3.12, and mod_jk that came with Tomcat on
Solaris, SunOs5.7. I get my JSPs to run but when they try to use Oracle I
get an error.

Here is my error:

Internal Servlet Error:
javax.servlet.ServletException: oracle/jdbc/pool/OracleDataSource
...

Root cause: 
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: oracle/jdbc/pool/OracleDataSource
...

I have a virtual host set up as such



with the apache httpd.conf as:

ServerAdmin [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ServerAlias x.xxx.com campaign

   Options None
   Deny from all

JkMount /*.jsp ajp13
JkMount /servlet/* ajp13


I have the classes12.zip file in /opt/www/ushh/campaign/htdocs/WEB-INF/lib
but it doesn;t load it from there. I also unzipped the file and made a
classes12.jar file and put it in /opt/www/ushh/campaign/htdocs/WEB-INF/lib.
I also added the following line to my wrappers.properties file:

# added this for Oracle JDBC driver JDK 1.2 *DK 
wrapper.class_path=/opt/oracle/product/8.1.6/jdbc/lib/classes12.zip

What is left to try, How can I make the JDBC classes avaiable for my
application.

What I meant by this is just doing:

MyThread x = new MyThraad();
x.run();

calls the run method (containing the class that has problems being created)
within the current Thread, ie no new Thread is started, This is when the
problem 'goes away'.

When start is called, the Thread starts (Obviously). This is when the
problem appears for me.

Tomcat 4.0b5/Apache/mod_webapps/JSP - NO GO!

If so, can you send me your httpd.conf and server.xml (and anything else that

We can't get JSP's to work thorough a Warp connector to Apache.  They work
fine through port 8080 and Catalina's built-in web server, but not through Apache.

I can't find any online help for getting mod_webapps to work,
other than comments in the code.  The first sections of the Tomcat 4.x
documentation on Installation are BLANK.

By hook or by crook, we have gotten Apache and Tomcat running with mod_webapps
and are able to serve static content through the Tomcat default servlet,
but JSP's DON'T WORK!!

When a browser requests a JSP page, the java source is built and compiled (the
files built are identical to those built when the page is requested through port 8080) 
-
but Apache hands nothing back to the web browser - Netscape displays a

"Document contains no data"

dialog.

Any help or ideas would be appreciated.  Apache and Tomcat log files show
no error messages or  unusual content.

you send emails with "Tomcat" in the subject, we could easily group

Simultaneous test and production environment

I'm trying to setup a test and a production environment in one machine. The idea is to keep running two JVM instances. I created 2 workers mapped to port 8007 and 8008. I setup 2 server.xml properly for each instance. I could configure a virtual host like in httpd.conf

JkMount /*.jsp ajp12JkMount /test/*.jsp testJkMount /servlet/* ajp12JkMount /servlet_test/* test

The problem is that /*.jsp seems to override /test/*.jsp ( I made a try... :)) ) . Does anybody have a suggestion how to do this ? I don't want to have different VirtualHost entries...

It took me awhile trying to figure how the

keep getting AccessControlException when using JavaMail

[jack . chu]

Hi,
 
Any help would be appreciated.
 
I have a servlet that uses JavaMail package. It works fine when I executed
via telnet.
 
But I get java.security.AccessControlException:access denied
(java.net.SocketPermission stage.icarian.com resolve) error, when I call the
servlet.
 
My tomcat.policy file
grant codeBase "file:/home/sites/site4/web/-" {
permission
java.net.SocketPermission"localhost:1024-","connect,accept,listen,resolve";
permission java.util.PropertyPermission "*", "read,write";
permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "accessClassInPackage.sun.io";
permission java.io.FilePermission "-", "read,write,delete";
};
 
I even tried adding permission java.security.AllPermission line to the
tomcat.policy file.
 
I'm running tomcat 3.2 on Cobalt linux.
 
Any ideas?
Has anyone gotten the JavaMail to work with servlets?
 
thanks!!
Jack

RE: Bug in Tomcat ? - forwarding HTTP request from a Servlet to a JSP

[Greg Trasuk]

Srinivas:

I can't comment on Jrun or Weblogic, since I haven't used them.  Normally I
figure that since Tomcat is the officially sanctioned reference
implementation, if it doesn't work on Tomcat, it just plain doesn't work,
even if it does work on other containers.

Here's what the servlet API docs say about getParameter in
ServletRequest.getParameter() :
"If the parameter data was sent in the request body, such as occurs with an
HTTP POST request, then reading the body directly via getInputStream() or
getReader() can interfere with the execution of this method."

I take that to mean it may cause problems, but won't necessarily, depending
on the implementation.

Can you try out the workaround I suggested and see if it solves the
problem?  If it doesn't, then we're on the wrong debugging track anyway.

Hello:

From what I can tell:

(1) In your PronServlet.java service() method, you are manually parsing the
form data using the stream returned by request.getInputStream()
(2) In the JSP page, Tomcat is attempting to parse the form data again.

The servlet API docs specify that you can only call getInputStream() once
on a request, and that doing so may cause problems reading parameters, so I
suspect that's the source of your problem.  I'm not entirely sure why the
generated JSP servlet is trying to read the parameters. Perhaps you're using
the parameters in the JSP page, or perhaps the JSP engine just reads it by
default, which would seem reasonable to me.

The simple workaround would be not to parse the form data in your
PronServlet, but to just use request.getParameter() and let Tomcat handle
it.  That's the way I've done it in the past, and haven't had problems.

Hi
 Iam using tomcat 3.2.1 and i have a servlet "PronServlet" that extends from
HttpServlet . Now i have a servlet "LogonServlet" that extends from servlet
"PronServlet" (which has got common functionality like checking for a valid
session ;has common methods that perform functionality like forwarding HTTP
request to another url). In "LogonServlet" i have some code that does some
processing and finally forwards the HTTP request to a JSP .Iam getting an
error which iam pasting below.I ran the same application on JRun and it
works fine .I noticed that if i removed the subclassing and instead
subclassed LogonServlet directly from HttpServlet then the application works
fine by forwarding the request to the next JSP .Here is the console output
.Iam attaching the source code of
 PronServlet and LogonServlet .Anybody from the Tomcat dev team any
ideas. ?

Re: JSP's not finding classes in WEB-INF

[Aditya Anand]

this seems stupid but did u restart the server!...
also you do have the servlets defined in
web.xml..right?

I use 4.0 b-5, and I haven't come across this problem,

My servlets and Beans are in separate jar files under
WEB-INF/lib, which also contains other jars need,
Ihave never touched the classpath setup by Tomcat, and
it orks just fine

Can I have a peek at the logs?

I have .class files under WEB-INF/classes and also tried making a .jar
file of the .class files and moving that to WEB-INF/lib.

Neither worked.

Actually, just to make things interesting, those *are* servlet
classes.  We have both servlets and JSP's that use library classes for
various things.  Currently, they live in WEB-INF/classes.  One of these
years we'll get things sorted out a bit better.

Ok, so I created a jar file with the servlet classes and library classes
in it and moved it to WEB-INF/lib.

Didn't work.

I cannot put this .jar file in TOMCAT_HOME/lib -- each context / virtual
host will have slightly different bits in the servlets.

RE: JSP's not finding classes in WEB-INF

[Sampige, Srinivas]

If you have just .class files then your JSP should work after placing those classes 
under WEB-INF/classes .But if you classes are in a .jar file then place them under 
WEB-INF/lib . Hope this helps

I assume these are your bean classes. These should be
put under the WEB-INF/lib directory rather than the
classes directory. The classes directory is ment only
for un-jarred servlet classes that have been declared
in the web.xml file.

you donot have to specify WEB-INF/classes in the

Put any servlet jars, beans, and required

RE: Cannot find my JavaBeans

[Cox, Charlie]

Title: RE: Cannot find my JavaBeans





Ok, based upon previous posts, I think I might have an idea of why this happens.


Tomcat uses its own classloader(AdaptiveClassLoader) to load servlets/jsps. when that servlet/jsp needs a class(abcBean) the AdaptiveClassLoader tries to load the class. If it cannot load the class from the classes it knows about, in this case web-inf/classes, it will pass the request to load a class to its parent classloader. 

See http://www.mail-archive.com/tomcat-user@jakarta.apache.org/msg13260.html for the full classloader heirarchy. 


In the case of a new Thread object, the AdaptiveClassLoader cannot resolve it, therefore it asks its parent and eventually the bootstap(jvm's) classloader will load the class. Now when the thread class needs to load a class(abcBean), the bootstrap classloader looks for it in the only place it is aware of - the classpath. And since the bootstrap loader doesn't not know about the AdaptiveClassLoader, it cannot forward the request to load the class to it, thus the class cannot be found.

I don't know why it is different for run() than for start() - I haven't used either, so I don't understand what the difference in the two is in the Thread class(doesn't start() call run()?)

hope this helps,
Charlie

If you want to *change* the code in a context, you can do this just by
adding the new class files under the WEB-INF directory.

If you want to add a *new* context that didn't already exist, you have to
edit the server.xml file.

One other option is to have the developers jar up the whole application
and deploy it to TOMCAT_HOME/webapps as a .war file.

Then, no changes are needed to server.xml; tomcat just reads and expands
the .war file and runs with it.  Never did this, not sure how well it
works.

Multiple virtual host with individual webapp dirs , one tomcat

[Stefan . Raschke]

Hi guys,

maybe this is obvious, but I just don't get it.


I configured several virtual hosts with several individual contexts defined
in server.xml.
Works fine.

Is it possible to give every single vhost his own webapp-dir where
developpers can put
new contexts, which are automatically added after restarting tomcat so no
editing of server.xml
is required.

I understand that I can configure the base location with home in
. Is
there a similar way to solve my problem.


Thanks for your input and take care,


stefan

Images in Tomcat

[Fredrik Liden]

I have a navigationbar that changes images when the user moves the mouse
over it.
This navigationbar works and looks normal when viewed on my own computer.
But when I run it through the server the images won't work properly. It
looks pretty messed up to be exact. Anyone know how to get around this?

I'm running Tomcat as a standalone webserver/servletengine

Aha, that clarifies your problem a lot. I suppose it won't be difficult

Re: Tomcat 4.0 release date?

[Alex Fernández]

Hi Jon!

Jonathan Eric Miller wrote:

Tomcat 4.0 will be the reference implementation of servlet spec 2.3,
which isn't still out. Therefore, it cannot be released until the spec
is ready and finished -- which should be around september, I hear.

Yes, and they target different audiences. If you are using JDK 1.1 and
servlet spec 2.2 is fine for you, you'll want Tomcat 3.3. Otherwise,
wait for the final release.

Yet, from what I've read, both releases are quite stable right now. My
experience with milestones 2, 3 and 4 has been very satisfactory.

> As far as I can

'Alpha' is a commercial term. From the developer's perspective, you
reach milestones and may choose to publish them. Since this is an Open
Source project, you get access even to the nightly builds -- so you can
test it early on and bugs are pinned up as soon as possible.

However, don't let this fact fool you about the quality of the milestone
releases -- just download it and see. If you find any bugs, don't forget
to report them in Bugzilla.

> Is 4.0 expected to be released before 3.3? If so, what's the point of 3.3?

I hope it's clear now :)  The developers say that v3.3 is an evolution,
while v4 is a revolution -- a completely different codebase. You might
say that v3.3 is v3.2.1 refactored, slimmed down and faster.

As you may have heard, v3.2's major pitfall was speed: everyone claimed
to be superior. v3.3 is vastly improved in that regard, and code is
better organized. v4 will probably be very fast too, since a lot of
great developers are working on it.

Un saludo,

Alex.

4.0 should go final shortly after the final Servlet 2.3 spec is
released.  (Beta 6 will be released later this week or next week, according
to posts to the list recently).

I think of milestones more as reaching points on a development plan,
while Alphas are completed code.  I don't know enough about Tomcat
development to know if this is right, but this is the way that I've seen the
terminology used on other projects.

The distinction between Tomcat 3 and 4 is that version 3 is
dedicated to support the Servlet 2.2 spec.  Version 4 supports the 2.3 spec.
Therefore, as long as people are using the 2.2 spec and haven't upgraded to
the 2.3 spec, there will be some form of Tomcat 3 around (although active
development will probably ramp down as the user base moved to Tomcat 4).
Therefore, the point of 3.3 is to support the Servlet spec 2.2, but continue
to enhance its feature set.  The point of 4.0 is to be ready with a
reference implementation as soon as the spec is finalized.

RE: How to configure a custom page for JSP 404 errors?

[Courtney, Pierce]

Hello,

I have found a workaround for this problem.
You *can* configure Tomcat 3.2.2 to go to
a particular page in the case of a 404 (or
other error), with this tag:


404
/CustomDefault


But, the  has to be a *servlet*. 
JSP or HTML pages won't work. Also make sure
you register both a  and a 
 like this:



CustomDefault


yourPackage.CustomDefault


-2147483646





CustomDefault


/CustomDefault



If you would like  to be a
JSP or HTML page, the workaround is
this: Make your default servlet
redirect to your JSP or HTML page.
(For some reason a server-side forward
or include doesn't work either).
So, if you want to go to your own
"error.jsp" in the case of 404 errors,
the CustomDefault servlet would look
something like this:
--
import java.io.IOException;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;

public class CustomDefault extends HttpServlet 
{
public void service(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse
response)
throws ServletException, IOException
{
response.sendRedirect("/error.jsp");
}

}
--

I hope this helps anyone dealing with this problem.

Ryan and Hunor (Hades),

Thanks for your replies, but this simply does not work for me (perhaps I'm
missing something... some other setting one must set in server.xml or
something?)
I created a simple error.jsp and put this snippet in the main web.xml in
/conf/ and also in the web.xml file for my specific webapp:


404
/error.jsp


I also set the isErrorPage tag in my error.jsp per Hunor's suggestion.

Also I searched harder through the Tomcat User archives, and there seem to
be many people who have tried and failed to use this feature. But I could
find no mention of anyone actually having used this feature... I'm getting
the impression that this feature is buggy or not implemented.

BTW, This feature works perfectly in Tomcat 4.0-b5.

If anyone has actually gotten this to work on Tomcat 3.2.2, please let me
know how you did it.

Hi Pierce,

 From what I've been able to gather, you should be able to set
the error page using the  directive within the
deployment descriptor for a web app (web.xml).


404
/error.jsp


Looking through the bug database, there was an open issue
regarding the use of static html pages within the

in, but if you try it and get a stacktrace, then I guess you know :)

The bug report can be found here:

I did find this information in the archives.  
Try looking at the results of the following search:

I'm sure those who are more experiences could expand/correct on this

Tomcat 4.0 release date?

Anyone have any ideas on when Tomcat 4.0 might be released? I see that it's

Is 4.0 expected to be released before 3.3? If so, what's the point of 3.3?

I don't understand your problem. When users click on a link, a new page

Perhaps you want to say that users click a second time after the request
has got to the server (and the DB updated), but before the response gets
to them. In this case, you'd want to ignore the second request.

This then should be easy: if you find the data already updated in the

RE: Double Click

[William Kaufman]

I can think of a few ways to deal with it:

1) Disallow double-clicking on the client, ever.  Add

ondblclick="javascript: return false;"

to the anchor tag(s).  (The servlet engine never knows whether the user
single- or double-clicked.  If you need that specific information, you
always need to deal with it on the client side.)

2) If you want to allow double-clicking to run the action twice, but you
don't want both clicks running at the same time, synchronize on a session
attribute.

3) If you want to disallow ever running the action twice in a row, set some
session attribute to remember the last action you ran, and reject any action
which matches the last action run.

You will have to detect the double-click in the client application, 
which I assume is a web browser. This will require something like 
JavaScript or VBScript, which is off-topic for this list. Try 
researching DOM (Document Object Model) on the web. There is a lot of 
information on DOM available.

Here is a link to help you get started: 
http://www.google.com/search?q=document+object+model


Now that I think about it, you could determine if the second click was 
submitted within a certain time frame and if any parameters had changed. 
If false, then ignore second request.

Hello:

From what I can tell:

(1) In your PronServlet.java service() method, you are manually parsing the
form data using the stream returned by request.getInputStream()
(2) In the JSP page, Tomcat is attempting to parse the form data again.

The servlet API docs specify that you can only call getInputStream() once
on a request, and that doing so may cause problems reading parameters, so I
suspect that's the source of your problem.  I'm not entirely sure why the
generated JSP servlet is trying to read the parameters. Perhaps you're using
the parameters in the JSP page, or perhaps the JSP engine just reads it by
default, which would seem reasonable to me.

The simple workaround would be not to parse the form data in your
PronServlet, but to just use request.getParameter() and let Tomcat handle
it.  That's the way I've done it in the past, and haven't had problems.

Subject: Bug in Tomcat ? - forwarding HTTP request from a Servlet to a
JSP


Hi
 Iam using tomcat 3.2.1 and i have a servlet "PronServlet" that extends from
HttpServlet . Now i have a servlet "LogonServlet" that extends from servlet
"PronServlet" (which has got common functionality like checking for a valid
session ;has common methods that perform functionality like forwarding HTTP
request to another url). In "LogonServlet" i have some code that does some
processing and finally forwards the HTTP request to a JSP .Iam getting an
error which iam pasting below.I ran the same application on JRun and it
works fine .I noticed that if i removed the subclassing and instead
subclassed LogonServlet directly from HttpServlet then the application works
fine by forwarding the request to the next JSP .Here is the console output
.Iam attaching the source code of
 PronServlet and LogonServlet .Anybody from the Tomcat dev team any
ideas. ?
