Not a fair comparison.
Jboss is a J2EE container that features Jetty as the web container.
The real comparison is that of Jetty vs. Tomcat.
Some argue that Jetty is a bit more secure and lighter that Tomcat.
I never argue those points unless I see benchmarks for the same conditions. 
Most people don't have real benchamarks so take that in stride.

JBoss can be configured to work with TomCat.

I agree with you that if you don't need EJB's and the other ilities (ie. 
scalalbility, security, manageability) then I would think again.

I came to a project where they had jBoss & Struts and all they were doing was 
reporting via the web. Way to bring a "sledge hammer" to an ant. I tore that 
out and went straight MVC with nothing but good design patterns, OO 
principles, Oracle, and Tomcat.

that's my spin

JDBC URL from webserver

[dwightHugget]

Can anyone confirm that using either of these 2 styles of JDBC URL ought to 
work when web container is running on one machine and DBMS is on another 
machine across the internet.

jdbc:oracle:thin:@xxx.aa.bb.zz:1521:sid_name

jdbc:oracle:thin:@//xxx.aa.bb.zz:1521/service_name

The DBMS is Oracle 9i
When I put the machine with the webserver on the same network, same subnet, 
all is good. When I move the web server machine to another network all 
together I get nothing.

I'm running with JDK1.4 and the Oracle drivers for JDK 1.4
Yes, the DBMS is behind a firewall? 

thanks

Re: ISAPI redirector

[Peter F.]

Hi Rick,

First, make sure you set the log modus to DEBUG (Isapi 2.0.x: logLevel: 
DEBUG, Isapi 1.x: log_level: debug).

Take a look into the Event Viewer of W2K and inspect the Application Log. 
You should see error messages there indicating what doesn't work. 

I posted my configuration info recently at this forum, simply search for:

Re: regarding the installation of tomcat

[Peter F.]

Hi manchi,

As of Tomcat 4.x the variable is called "CATALINA_HOME". 

If you don't set it, the startup script ("startup.bat" on Windows systems) 
will try to guess it:
===
rem Guess CATALINA_HOME if not defined
if not "%CATALINA_HOME%" == "" goto gotHome
set CATALINA_HOME=.

Re: upload and renameto apache-tomcat problem

Hi Peter,

You could also use the Commons FileUpload package of the Jakarta project:
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/fileupload/index.html

I personally have used the cos.jar package of Jason Hunter as well and it 
has served its purpose fine so far.

[OFF-TOPIC] Re: Tomcat vs. JBoss

[johannes . fiala]

hi [EMAIL PROTECTED] + Michael Maier [EMAIL PROTECTED] alias blib 
(nickname of your previous posts),

thx for your reply, I've corrected J2EE to Servlets/JSPs to increase the 
focus. I didn't take care of the EJB part of J2EE so far, but certainly 
will in the future. My clients, however, didn't care up to now.

However, I think your response is impolite at best. I don't think its a 
good way to communicate in a forum to tell others they are idiots just 
because they are asking questions. At least you could mark your reply 
OFF-TOPIC or send it directly to me to save all the others from your 
thoughts.
I reserve the right to learn something new, you probably don't have to 
anymore...

I hope you'll receive a better treatment when learning something new than 
you do to others.

Simple Web App Deployment Issue

[Manu Kits]

Hello everyone,

I am using JBoss with Tomcat Catalina and Apache Web Server on UNIX.

My Web App name is "HARI" which has following structure:

/hari/index.jsp
/hari/hari.war
/hari/WEB-INF/web.xml
/hari/WEB-INF/classes/login.class
/hari/WEB-INF/classes/process.class
/hari/WEB-INF/classes/main.class
/hari/META-INF/application.xml
My WEB.XML file is:
-

   
   login
   /login/*
   
   
   process
   /process/*
   
   
   main
   /main/*
   

   process
   /process/*


   login
   /login/*


   main
   /main/*

-
This is a very basic WEB APP which checks for USerName/Password.

I run my app as http://hariom.com/hari/login and it used to work great.

Now, my Web App is getting complex with more Servlets etc and so I am 
thinking of using Sub Directories.

So now I have.(created directory SHIVA and organized the servlets)

/hari/index.jsp
/hari/hari.war
/hari/WEB-INF/web.xml
/hari/WEB-INF/classes/shiva/login.class
/hari/WEB-INF/classes/shiva/process.class
/hari/WEB-INF/classes/shiva/main.class
/hari/META-INF/application.xml
So, now what changes do I have to make to WEB.XML? How do I invoke my Web 
App?
Should I use http://hariom.com/hari/shiva/login or 
http://hariom.com/hari/shiva.login

Do I have to ADD "package shiva" in every servlets...?

what other changes do I have to make to make it work?

Thanks!

Re: Tomcat vs. JBoss

[da_alchemist]

It is sad really to be exposed like this.  Your
company's web site does present you as the J2EE expert
and yet you ask questions that do not "mix", for lack
of a better description.  If you truly understood J2EE
and merely glanced at the JBoss web site
(www.jboss.org) you would hopefully be able to
ascertain that JBoss functions primarily as an EJB
container, while Tomcat can actually work with JBoss
as its servlet container.

Perhaps I am being a bit too harsh and should
recognize that maybe its your mastery of the English
language that is at fault here and you really do
understand the differences between JBoss and Tomcat
and simply did not pose the question clearly.  If that
is the case I apologize, but please be careful in
presenting future questions otherwise I would
anticipate plenty more grief from others.

Finally, to answer your questions as best as I can
interpret them.  You are absolutely correct in that
JBoss is complex.  Hell, most production level J2EE
servers (BEA Weblogic, IBM Websphere, etc.) are
complex, probably due to the J2EE specification being
a bit involved.  But, as with all things they become
much simpler with experience.  As for Tomcat being a
"J2EE engine", that is a bad characterization.  Tomcat
merely implements a piece (servlets) of the J2EE
specification.  Tomcat, last I checked, does not
function as an EJB container and so you cannot really
compare it to JBoss.  Although, JBoss does come with
its own servlet container (JBoss Web, formerly Jetty).
 To answer your overall question, you can keep Tomcat
and use it synergistically with JBoss as many others
have done and it seems to work well in production
depending on how they are being used.

I hope this helps.

Thanks.

[johannes . fiala]

Hi Joe Sam,

Thanks for your detailed reply.

Do you know any real-life scenarios where you can't do it with Tomcat but 
need EJB seriously? 
So far I've done any backend-access using Apache Axis (Soap) and haven't 
yet had a great desire to use RMI/EJB remote access with pages of nested 
exceptions if anything goes wrong. 

Thx alot
Johannes

Re: Tomcat vs. JBoss







Hi Johannes,

There is no Tomcat versus JBoss issue.  JBoss is a J2EE container 
which,
per the spec, includes a servlet engine.  The standard JBoss download
includes Jetty, but there is also one that includes Tomcat.  So the real
issue, if you want to have one, is Jetty versus Tomcat.  We've used Jetty
( with JBoss ) because it started life as an HTTP server, with servlet/JSP
functionality included as time went on.  It allows us to avoid the
mod_jk/connector business one sees all the time in questions on this list
and also avoids the Apache - servlet engine handoff; we've seen good
performance..

JBoss is pretty much a full fledged J2EE engine, not just an EJB
container.

The J2EE RI is not authorized for a production environment, so there
also is no JBoss versus J2EE RI issue.  See the RI license, which says:

"for the sole purpose of designing, developing and testing your Java
applets and applications ("Programs")"

  So, the issue is between other J2EE application servers and JBoss.

In any event, while it is my understanding that Tomcat 4.x and 5.x
versions begin to focus on performance ( anyone feel free to jump in ), 
the
J2EE RI makes no performance claims at all, being designed to show how
a J2EE server should work with applications - a *Reference Implementation* 
-
rather than mandate or perform any optimal internal operations.

Hi

I cannot leave your claim unanswered here, even it is way off topic - I

upload and renameto apache-tomcat problem

[Peter H.]

Hello Tomcat-Community,

I try to figure out a strange but reproduceable error:
Using Apache and Tomcat under windows and maybe linux.
After uploading a file to a temporary dir and renaming (moving) it
to a apache accessible folder i have strange problems...
If i upload a image with the attached servlet and after it accessing the 
image with apache i must wait some seconds to get a succesful renameTo. the 
problem is that if i don't create the temporary image file with java the 
renameTo always succeeds. but the servlet should
have file upload behaviour...

maybe its the FileServletWrapper but uploading multiple times without
accessing the image with apache there is no problem!
ps. The FileServletWrapper is only available as class code...
Any Suggestions?
Thanks
Peter

import java.io.*;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
import java.util.*;

extends HttpServlet {

IOException {

new File("/temp"));
File source = null;

if(request.getFileParameter("file") != null) {

I have not used JBoss myself but had a look at it's documentation some time 
ago and if I understand it correctly JBoss is an EJB container and does not 
include the other features of J2EE that are available with Tomcat.

I.e. you need Tomcat and if you want also EJB support you can have that 
with JBoss. Tomcat does not support EJB's.

RE: Tomcat 4.1.18->4.1.24 causes standard tag to fail

[johannes . fiala]

hi jim,

I had the same trouble when running jspc using ant.

Simply replacing the absolute URI (which BTW points nowhere at the sun 
website) with a relative URI:
<%@ taglib prefix="c" uri = "/WEB-INF/c.tld" %>

and supplying the c.tld file (below) solved the whole issue easily.
It  has the additional advantage you know what's really in the tld, not 
only a generic absolute uri pointing nowhere.
And... you can use ant to run JSPC!

Make sure you add the c.tld to the webapps' WEB-INF directory.

Tomcat vs. JBoss

[johannes . fiala]

Hi there,

At my company some are discussing to replace our Tomcat installation with 
JBoss application server.
What are the main arguments pro/contra using Tomcat/JBoss?
Is anybody able to share some production experiences?

To my mind it seems
*) if I need EJB -> take JBoss
disadvantage: more complex

*) if I need the reference J2EE engine -> take Tomcat
advantage: easier to use, less overhead with EJB

What do you think?

cheers,
Johannes

High availability Tomcat webapps using ant undeploy/deploy??

[johannes . fiala]

Hi there!

My primary focus is high availability of the Tomcat applications running 
in production. 

Currently it takes approximately 10 seconds to redeploy an application 
using ant undeploy/deploy in production. 
This means taking the whole application down for 10 seconds leaving users 
with an 404 error.

==> What could I do to have 100% availability of my webapp during the 
undeployed-state?

thx alot
Johannes

Weird problem using ant undeploy/deploy: InitParameters not inited

[johannes . fiala]

Hi there,

I'm facing a strange problem sometimes when I'm doing an ant 
undeploy/deploy:

Sometimes, the Context InitParameters don't get initialized, they simply 
resume to "null". 

Does anybody have any idea what might cause this? It is reproducible but 
happens at different times. 
The problem occurs especially often on our production machine, which is 
running AIX 4.3.

thx alot
Johannes

RE: Switching between releases during runtime

[johannes . fiala]

Hi Yoav,

Thanks for your ideas, but how do they work out in the ant deploy 
scenario, where the application actually resides in "/usr/local/tomcat/
work/Standalone/localhost/manager/forms.war" ?

*) Is it an option to create a symlink "forms" in the /webapps directory 
to point to "/usr/local/tomcat/work/Standalone/localhost/manager/forms.war
"?
*) Do I have any other options than creating a symlink? I'm working with a 
Windows-machine for development, so I'd prefer something not os-specific!
*) The best thing would be a pseudo-context which simply points to another 
context, so each request gets mapped to the versioned context.

thx alot
Johannes

RE: Switching between releases during runtime







Howdy,
Several other approaches, all I think better than your context pointer
idea:

- Have the context XML definition file (tomcat 4.1 or later) name a
symlink as the docBase.  That symlink would point to myapp-1.0 and could
be changed to myapp-1.1 etc.

- Have the context entry itself in the webapps directory be a symlink to
somewhere outside the webapps directory, for example:
/local/build/myapp-1.0
/local/build/myapp-1.1
/local/tomcat/webapps/myapp -> /local/build/myapp-1.0
so "myapp" under webapps is just a symlink.

- Just redeploy appropriately using the ant tasks supplied with tomcat
an save yourself headaches in the long run.
