Tomcat on Fedora
Hi All We am running tomcat 5.0.28 on Fedora 3, with JDK1.5.03. We are experiencing a setup problem. If we increase the memory allocated to Tomcat anything more than 384 Mb. The Java process will spin at 99% utilisation on startup, and it will then hang. Eventually, the whole box will be hung. I have tried setting ulimit to no limits, and also as suggested in Tomcat's release: ulimit -s 2048 export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5 Nothing seems to be effective. We always experience the same behaviour. Any suggestions? Thanks Fred Yahoo! Sports Rekindle the Rivalries.

compile against servlet.jar but must run tomcat with servlet-ap1.jar
Hi All, We our new to Tomcat and have a bit of an odd problem. We are developing a getting started project. We have found that we must compile with servlet.jar in our CLASSPATH, but Tomcat will not run with servlet.jar in the CLASSPATH. Tomcat will run with servlet-api.jar, but the test program will not compile with servlet-api.jar in the CLASSPATH. To be more specific we get a: package javax.servlet.http does not exist error when compiling against servlet-api.jar Similar errors ocure when running Tomcat with servlet.jar Changing the CLASSPATH everytime we decide to compile or run isn't much fun. Anybody got an idea on why this is happening, and what the solution is.

Re: tomcat stopped
servlet-api.jar does seem to work. How we found servlet.jar... we googled javax.lang.xxx.xxx, which came from a compile error. The only references were to servlet.jar. The two versions of servlet.jar were quite old.. 1999 and 2001 if I remember correctly, which caused me concern, but it is all we found. Thanks for the help. -Fred Wendy Smoak wrote: From: Fred Cook [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2) We had the CLASSPATH set to point to servlet.jar (needed to compile the test program). This was the main problem, which might bring up a versioning question. We are running RH 8.0 on this machine with Tomcat 5.5.7 and apache 2.0.53. What is the correct version of servlet.jar that should be run with this version of Tomcat and Apache? Well... I don't think it's called servlet.jar anymore. A quick look shows no servlet.jar file in the Tomcat 5.5.9 download. I believe the file you want is servlet-api.jar . (I'm still on 4.1, so I'm guessing...) You could also download the official API from Sun, and compile against that. It's not that you need to compile against a specific version of _Tomcat_, it's that you need to compile against the right version of the Servlet Specification. In your case, Tomcat 5.5 is Servlet 2.4, so make sure that's what you're using. Where did you get the 'servlet.jar' file that you were using? Maybe it does contain the right stuff, but those strange NoClassDefFound errors you were getting made me suspicious. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: tomcat stopped
Hi Wendy, We got it working, there were 2 problems. 1) It took 10 seconds for the machine to turn off Tomcat (yes I know ..old hardware) after shutdown.sh was run. And the much more interesting. 2) We had the CLASSPATH set to point to servlet.jar (needed to compile the test program). This was the main problem, which might bring up a versioning question.

If you don't delete the directory, Tomcat won't ever explode your new .war file. (Alternately, configure it to run from the un-exploded .war file.) It concerns me that the Manager does not run from localhost:8080 or anything else for that matter. I think the first step maybe to get Tomcats home page links working. Did it ever work?

tomcat stopped
Hi All, We are new to tomcat and have been having some difficulties. Things started out well, but when development work started, Tomcat stopped responding to any changes in the reinstalled .war file. IE a new //localhost:8080/foo/ was the same as the old. We get localhost:8080, but now all it's links and all our code displays a blank screen. And the oddest problem is we can go to localhost:8080/foo when foo has been removed and there is no error generated. We go through the ./startup.sh and ./shutdown.sh steps every time a server was changed. We have reinstalled Tomcat.

web.xml - security-constraint oddity/problem
Hello I am running apache 2.0.46 with SSL with tomcat/mod_jk2, white box linux. I do not have tomcat running SSL on 8443. So I have this issue with my app... I am securing my app with the security-constraint tag in web.xml (connected to mysql backend), it works perfectly with the url-pattern/clients.jsp/url-pattern. clients.jsp is a https:// uri, therefore my apache SSL is handling it, and so is the remaining of the session (?). However, if i throw url-pattern/index.jsp/url-pattern, which is a http:// uri, then tomcat tries to connect to port 8443 (instead of 443), where of course it fails miserably since nothing is running there. I guess my question is, why is tomcat trying to get to port 8443, when none of my uri point to https://myhost:8443, but simply to https://myhost (which should be handled on port 443 by my apache ssl)?

Re: AW: why is tomcat-users.xml rewritten ?
I've just searched the archives and it seems that this question comes up every few months at least. The behavior of rewriting tomcat-users.xml and changing its permissions to match the Tomcat umask surprises enough people that it seems worth changing if possible. I put a lot of faith in the principal of least astonishment. My understanding is that the only reason for the rewrite is to confirm that the Tomcat admin app will have write access to the tomcat-users.xml file if the admin app is ever used. Two questions: 1. Why not use java.io.File.canWrite()? It confirms the ability to rewrite the file without actually doing so. Works fine on both Linux and Windows 2000, so I assume it is a fully portable solution. 2. Couldn't the rewrite be deferred until necessary? Perhaps when the admin app accepts a valid login? Or when a user tries to use the admin app to modify the tomcat-users.xml file? Why check so far in advance? There is always the risk that the permissions could be modified manually after the check at startup, and before the admin app actually needs to write, so the admin app must be prepared for failure anyhow. Why not just have it check when it needs to and report the error to the user then? --Fred -- Fred Stluka -- mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- http://bristle.com/~fred/ Bristle Software, Inc -- http://bristle.com -- Glad to be of service! -- Steffen Heil wrote: Hi Each time tomcat is restarted the file tomcat-users.xml is rewritten.

September 2004 20:48 An: Tomcat Users List Betreff: RE: Why does startup of Tomcat 5.0.28 server make tomcat-users.xml world-readable?... Hi, However, I still wonder: 1. Why does Tomcat re-write the tomcat-users.xml file at startup? This I already answered: Tomcat rewrites the tomcat-users.xml at startup to ensure it has permissions on it, because the admin webapp must have these permissions to allow editing of user information. 2. Why does it use the umask value instead of just leaving the protections as they were before it updated the file? This is the java.io.File default behavior: we don't modify anything and don't want to have platform-specific or native code in Tomcat. If you look at the java.io.File JavaDoc, you'll see there's no portable way to control this. 3. Isn't this a problem for most Tomcat installations, since without the umask I had applied to my tomcat user, the default umask is 002, not 022, so the tomcat-users.xml file would be changed to 664, not merely 644, at each startup? Seems like the default Tomcat behavior introduces a security risk. Judging by the fact this is raised about once a year on the mailing list, I'd say the majority of people don't care. Secure installations take care with their umasks from the beginning, so for them this is not an issue.

Why does startup of Tomcat 5.0.28 server make tomcat-users.xml world-readable?...
Anyone know why starting the Tomcat 5.0.28 server on Linux makes the configuration file tomcat-users.xml world-readable? I had it set to permissions 600, but starting the server changes it to 644.

Re: Why does startup of Tomcat 5.0.28 server make tomcat-users.xml world-readable?...
Yoav, I have created a Linux user specifically to run Tomcat. That user is the owner of the entire Tomcat directory tree, including the tomcat-users.xml file. The Tomcat server process is running as that user. I agree that that 600 should be sufficient for Tomcat to read and write the file. No, I have not yet configured a security manager.

Re: Why does startup of Tomcat 5.0.28 server make tomcat-users.xml world-readable?...
Yoav, Good idea. My tomcat user currently has a umask setting of 022. If I change it to 077, or even 066, the tomcat-user.xml file is still re-written at server startup, but it's protections are set to 600 as I wanted, not 644. This is an acceptable workaround for my immediate problem. Thanks! Hmmm... I wonder if other files created by Tomcat (like the server log files) will now be 600 also? I liked having them world-readable. However, I still wonder: 1. Why does Tomcat re-write the tomcat-users.xml file at startup? 2.

Why does Tomcat re-write the tomcat-users.xml file at startup? This I already answered: Tomcat rewrites the tomcat-users.xml at startup to ensure it has permissions on it, because the admin webapp must have these permissions to allow editing of user information. 2. Why does it use the umask value instead of just leaving the protections as they were before it updated the file? This is the java.io.File default behavior: we don't modify anything and don't want to have platform-specific or native code in Tomcat. If you look at the java.io.File JavaDoc, you'll see there's no portable way to control this. 3. Isn't this a problem for most Tomcat installations, since without the umask I had applied to my tomcat user, the default umask is 002, not 022, so the tomcat-users.xml file would be changed to 664, not merely 644, at each startup? Seems like the default Tomcat behavior introduces a security risk. Judging by the fact this is raised about once a year on the mailing list, I'd say the majority of people don't care. Secure installations take care with their umasks from the beginning, so for them this is not an issue.

Re: Customizing BASIC authentication
Hi, Thanks to you both, but my question is not so much about how to get the user name in the request. Instead, it's this: I need to use basic authentication (i.e. the browser pops up the login), but then I need to run custom code to actually check the login and password with an internal system, instead of the usual options available out of the box (memory realms, jdbc realms, etc.) I thought at first I would need a custom realm, but several messages on this list gave me the impression that a realm can't really affect the request/response. I need to not only do custom authentication, but the response will also be completely customized to the user who logs in. I'm still learning here, but realms seem to be too limited, valves seem to be too complex for the job. Is there a simple middle ground? Thanks again, Fred At 02:41 PM 8/16/2004 -0400, you wrote: Someone please correct me if I'm wrong here...

No hot deploy possible for ROOT context app?
Hi all, I've been working on setting up an application in the root context, meaning I configure it via this in server.xml: Context path= docBase=/path/to/my/war debug=0 / This works fine, and my application gets loaded properly at tomcat start-up. I just want to make sure I'm not missing any tricks. This approach seems to eliminate the possibility of hot deploy, right? Meaning, any time I change my war file, I need to restart tomcat?

RE: forwarding across contexts?
Thanks once again. This is very helpful. Now here's what I really want (it never ends, does it): Is there a way, within a single context, to separate out the static content to some other file system location. I'd like to be able to deploy my war file with library jars, configuration info, classes, etc., into the safe location within the jboss deploy directory. But, I'd like to have all of my static content (again, /images/whatever.gif) elsewhere on the file system. I believe that Yoav's suggestion is that I set up the empty path () context for this purpose. However, this is where I started, and Justin argued against this cross-context approach. So is there a way to accomplish this separation within a single context? Many, many thanks. It's amazing how, even with a stack of books and google and jakarta and all, there's no substitute for talking with people.

Yoav, Let me describe a bit about our application, just in case you (or anyone else) have some specific advice. My client is a publisher, and the bulk of the site will be many thousands of published articles and associated content such as figure, tables, etc. The HTML content, however, will be served by tomcat, since it has some dynamic components.

On the other hand, the war file can easily contain the java infrastructure (struts, velocity, configuration information, etc.).

RE: forwarding across contexts?
Justin, Thanks again for taking the time to think about this with me. Alas, my customer's deployment platform is windows. So no symlinks. No Apache (they use IIS).

Thanks, Fred At 03:13 PM 5/11/2004, you wrote: Fred, Thanks for the additional info about your app ... it makes it much easier to talk about these things. :) There are many (valid) ways to proceed, many of which vary in the amount of standards they adhere to (how much you want to align yourself with Tomcat).

My client is a publisher, and the bulk of the site will be many thousands of published articles and associated content such as figure, tables, etc. The HTML content, however, will be served by tomcat, since it has some dynamic components. The biggest question, then, has to do with your security requirements. Specifically, does this content need to be protected or can it just sit out there for anyone to grab? If it need not be protected, this is, IMHO, a textbook example of when to use Apache. You've got a large collection of static data and a relatively small web application associated with it. You've probably got different groups working on the different parts (the publisher's content and the HTML pages), so it makes sense to separate it out and serve the static content by generating links to your static web server's content from your dynamic HTML. Additionally, you could then put the two pieces on separate machines (one or more with Apache, one or more with Tomcat) to keep them separated even more cleanly. If the content needs to be protected, I would create a separate directory and put the content there. Symlink this to the base of your Tomcat webApp and let Tomcat serve it normally, employing whatever security scheme you're using. You won't be able to deploy the entire thing as a single WAR, but it doesn't sound like you really care to do this anyways. This is why it's not practical to bundle everything into a war file.

Alternately, you could extend the DefaultServlet (if you don't mind tying yourself to Tomcat and your version) with your own custom static content servlet that gets data from an arbitrary directory. If you can't be tied to Tomcat, use the source as a base to write your own default servlet. This solution is more on the slick side of things, so it wouldn't be preferable ... better to stay within the mainstream boundaries. If you can, look into symlinking or Apache. Consider the extend/impl DefaultServlet idea. If you're still not satisfied, having two separate contexts can be made to work. Perhaps others have additional ideas.

But, I also want to capture certain simple URLs and forward these to another context. As in /protected.html needs to be forwarded to /accesscheck/protected.html or similar. Am I on the wrong track here? Is it possible to forward (via RequestDispatcher) from one context to another? If not, how can I take advantage of DefaultServlet in my application?

Re: forwarding across contexts?
Justin, Thanks very much for your considered reply. You both solved my problem and made me question my approach at the same time. In re-thinking this in terms of separated webapps, I've hit another issue. If I solve this problem within one particular web application, I have to be able to point this webapp to another place in the file system (other than $CATALINA_HOME/webapp). I had figured out how to do that with the ROOT application, but I'm not sure how to do this within a war file. In short, how does one deploy a war file such that it looks for content (/images/whatever.gif) in a configurable location in the file system? If I can figure that out, I think I can abandon the cross-context issue for good!

It is generally good design practice to limit interactions between your webapps except for strongly defined specific interfaces that promote modularity. Doing something like you're suggesting will likely lead to messy, difficult code to work with ... not because it's a necessarily bad design idea, but rather because the premise behind J2EE is that code bases are designed, coded, deployed, and maintained as independent applications. They're not meant to ineroperate in a fluid way. It's possible to do what you're suggesting, but not recommended. The REASON I want to do this is that I want to be able to take advantage of simple URLS with the default context, as in /images/whatever.gif, and have them be served by DefaultServlet, which conveniently knows how to handle all that sort of stuff, set mime types, etc. I'm also hoping that DefaultServlet was written by someone more clever than me! Resources need not be within the ROOT web application to be served by the DefaultServlet. You'll notice that the DefaultServlet is defined within the global web.xml (I haven't worked with recent versions of jBoss, so I'm not sure exactly where they put this these days), which means that all applications inherit it. This means that resources like /images/whatever.gif and /mywebapp/images/whatever.gif will both be served by the DefaultServlet unless you configure it otherwise. But, I also want to capture certain simple URLs and forward these to another context. As in /protected.html needs to be forwarded to /accesscheck/protected.html or similar. Am I on the wrong track here? Is it possible to forward (via RequestDispatcher) from one context to another? If not, how can I take advantage of DefaultServlet in my application? See ServletContext#getContext(String). Again, I predict you'll find this to be a clunky and frustrating way to do things. Unless you have an over-riding reason to do otherwise, embrace the idea of separate and distinct web applications and let the container do this URL parsing and forwarding for you.

RE: JSP Editors
What do people use to edit JSPs? I'm after an editor, free if possible, to run on windows, with syntax colouring and possibly auto complete for java. Have tried vim for windows, but it doesn't seem as nice on windows as it is on linux. You may want to look at Eclipse. http://www.eclipse.org It is a good IDE with CVS support, and debugging and a wide range of plugins. However like most IDEs, it falls drastically short in the task of text editing which is what I do most of the time, and thus I still am faster using vim. If you are used to Emacs, there is a good emacs plugin for eclipse.

RE: HOW CAN I USE THREADS IN TOMCAT
I would also add that unless you have a particular need to embed this in
a specific Servlet, it might make more sense to add this thread to a
context listener handler.
For example, if I wanted to send out email to 1000 people (not Spam, of
course! ;-) and I initiated this from within a Servlet, in this case I'd
add a thread to the Servlet and let the Servlet return while the email
was still going out. This assumes I handle any errors in some other way
than displaying the results on the page.
On the other hand, if I wanted to, perhaps, clean-up some temporary data
within a database every so often, and I wanted to include this
funcitonality within a Web app rather than in a separate application
that I run from the CL via Cron every now and then, I'd probably
implement this within a context listener handler so that the thread
starts up when the Web app starts up and continues utnil the Web app
shuts down.
Just a thought!

tomcat servlet-mapping
Hello guys! Is there anybody who could give me an advice in servlet-mapping? I got a web application which consists of a ControllerServlet which should handles all incoming request´s except 2 static html files (index.html which is an welcome file and abc.html)! First I mapped it like this: servlet-mapping servlet-nameController/servlet-name url-pattern//url-pattern /servlet-mapping but then the static html files are not reachable How could i configure my web.xml , that all requests besides index.html and abc.html are mapped to the ControllerServlet?

tomcat 4.03 wont start
I'm running tomcat 4.03 under windows 2000. Yesterday it worked just fine; today it won't start. just flashes the dos window for a second and dies. No log generated. I even reinstalled. I made no changes to tomcat, was working on jboss stuff the last few days. do not have jboss running now since I use it for a different project. checked JAVA_HOME, TOMCAT_HOME, CATALINA_HOME and they are fine. Any ideas. please replay all since I am not subscribed to this list.

RE: mod_jk and Tomcat Lose Touch
This is what I thought, too, originally. However it wouldn't make sense since very few times do resources become *fewer* by default as software versions increase. With that in mind, and a hunch up my sleeve, I actually did some interesting testing. My test platform is my notebook, running RHL 9, 512MB RAM, Apache 1.3.27, JDK 1.4.1_03, and Tomcat 4.1.24. It's the exact same version of all software, including the kernel, that we're running on the server that's experiencing the problem. What I did was create 200 virtual hosts, 200 Tomcat instances running on 200 different ports, and tied them all together with mod_jk. I then created a test script which used 'lynx' to test a simple JSP on each virtual host and display the which JVM it was testing and what its results were. My results were *very* interesting. They are *reproducable* and *predictable*, which is at least better news than completely random! On the same software platform, where all defaults and limitations were exactly the same, the major affecting factors seem to be memory and swap, *not* any given resource within the OS itself. On the production system, this problem will not appear until it's running, say, 100 JVM's or so. The server has 2GB of RAM, 4GB of swap. On my notebook, however, it will appear with only 40 JVM's, which has 512MB of RAM and 1GB swap. Of course, when it's starting JVM's 30-40, it's doing a lot of swapping as resources are allocated. So how it turns out is as follows: If I start 1 JVM per minute, up to 40, it does just a little swapping per instance as it starts up. All JVM's up to #25 or so will work perfectly. Once you startup #26 and up, you start to lose a JVM here and there -- mod_jk will report its error and you'll never get a response. Essentially, mod_jk and the JVM lose touch. This will continue up to JVM #40 or so. Starting 1 per minute, I lost maybe 3-4 JVM's along the way. If I then start them back up, all the JVM's will work for a while, but eventually one or two will drop out again. Any more than 40 JVM's, and they all start dropping like flys. If I start all 40 JVM's 10 seconds apart, the swapping is tremendous by JVM #25, and *no* JVM will work at all after #25. Also, all the first 25 drop out as well. All of this behavior seems consistent with the behavior on the server, as well, only scaled-down. The server has 4x the RAM, so it doesn't exhibit this behavior until its memory gets full and it starts swapping processes out. I.e., if I start 100 JVM's on the server, it doesn't use any (or hardly any) swap space, and everything works perfectly. As the Web applications initiliaze, sessions are built, etc. eventually the server levels out at ~2GB of swap space being used, and this is when the problems start. This leads me to believe that the problem is with either memory not being properly allocated to mod_jk, even though there's plenty of swap available, *or* a timing issue where it tries to send a request to a JVM but for a split-second it doesn't get a response (due to paging, or whatever) and then perminently loses touch. This exact situation occurred a long time ago back in the days of JServ and mod_jserv. This is probably an issue for the developers to look at -- are there any mod_jk developers on this list? :-) I'm sure their knee-jerk reaction would be upgrade to mod_jk2 and Apache2, but this is not a practical solution for me. Thanks for any help, and for reading so far! -Fred Sounds to me like an OS resource issue. Total number of allowed open connections, etc. Since it worked on 7.x and not on 9, I would consider that a default changed somewhere, somehow.

RE: mod_jk and Tomcat Lose Touch
Looks like there is a mismatch between the workers.properties and the server.xml (Tomcat's config file). The server.xml sets up Tomcat. More importantly, it sets up a Connector which opens a socket connection on a defined port (Look for the Connector' section in the Service section of the server.xml). This port is what mod_jk needs to know about in the workers.properties. Some snippets from my config: ... Check out both of these files and make sure the config is setup cporrectly. It looks like either the Connector is not configured or the workers.properties does not have the right info for the workers spawned by Apache. Unfortunately it's not nearly this simple :-( Per my original post, we have ~150 Tomcat instances running, all properly configured, and 1 instance of Apache on the server. If I say, 'killall' the JVM's, and then start them back up again, everything will work perfectly. After a day or two, some of the sites will then lose their connectivity to Apache/JK. Simply restarting the JVM will fix things for a further day or two (for the sites configured to work with the JVM that I restart), thereby ruling-out a misconfiguration (though not ruling-out a possible non-optimal-configuration). Also, the same Apache 1.3.X and Tomcat 3.X and 4.X configurations worked perfectly on Red Hat 7.3, it was not until RH 9 that this began occuring. The behavior is consistent with Apache 1.3 and Apache 2 on RH 9. I've tried re-compiling and all the usual tricks. ... Do you use multiple Apaches on the server? Just one. Since I would be speculating wildly, why not post the workers.properties file as well as the Connector tags in the server.xml on the Tomcats. Well, 150 workers in the workers.properties file would be a bit large for starters ;-) So would 150 server.xml's... But regardless, I'm certain they're all configured properly, it's just a matter of Tomcat's AJP 1.3 service and mod_jk losing touch after some period of time. -Fred - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: vhosts and workers
At 07:03 27/08/03, you wrote: I'm in the process of configuration Tomcat 4.1.27 to communicate with Apache 1.3.28 through mod_jk on a single machine. I have several virtual hosts set up on my server in the following way: /home/vhost1, /home/vhost2, etc.. I would like to configure Apache/Tomcat to allow users of these vhosts to serve JSPs/Servlets from beneath their home directories, e.g.: /home/vhost1/public_html/webapps/ and /home/vhost2/public_html/webapps/. From my reading, I understand that this can be accomplished by: - setting the appBase attribute of the Home tag in the server.xml to those absolute directories: Home appBase=/home/vhost1/public_html/webapps/... ... Home appBase=/home/vhost2/public_html/webapps/... - setting the docBase/path attributes in the child Context tag to some directory within the appBase path: Home appBase=/home/vhost1/public_html/webapps/... Context docBase=app1 path=/app1... ... Home appBase=/home/vhost2/public_html/webapps/... Context docBase=app1 path=/app1... sorry, should be app2 :~ This would cause the primarly application app1 to be served out of vhost1's home from /home/vhost1/public_html/webapps/app1, and another applicationed app1 belonging to vhost2 to be served out of /home/vhost2/public_html/webapps/app1. This is my understanding of these attributes, though I don't quite get what the distinction between docBase and path is, as I've not found a decent enough description nor a solid example to set these in stone for me. My questions: 1: Would the aforementioned configuration properly serve JSPs/Servlets from locations beneath vhost1 and vhost2's home directories? you can also use something linke appBase=webapps/app1/ then your base will be at $CATALINA_BASE/webapps/app1/ 2: What exactly do the docBase and path attributes define within the Context tag? What is the distinction? path= the virtual path in the URI. so path=/app1 (for your my.first.virtualhost) makes you app available at my.first.virtualhost/app1/. docBase tells tomcat where to find the application locally (when not starting with a slash, it is relative to you appBase) you do not need to define your contexts within the server.xml, it is also possible to do that in web.xml files 3: It is possible to have a single worker handle requests for more than one web application belonging to more than one virtual host/user. How beneficial would it be to have a single worker handle requests sent to it from Apache for more than one virtual host? Would it be more efficient to have one worker for each virtual host and have a load balancing worker to manage those subordinate workers? yes, put the second engine in the first service element. (and remove the second service element:) 4: What sort of mechanisms to workers use to handle requests? Does a worker receive a request, fork(), child process handles the request, communicates with the Tomcat JVM, and returns the result to the requesting client, while the parent simply sits and listens for more connections? If this is the case, would a load balancer really serve to benefit anything if all this is taking place on a single machine, given that all the workers would be of type ajp13? dunno exactly really. that loadbalancing was from a example workers.properties I'm trying to achieve and optimal, secure configuration. One that would allow the users to manage their own web applications within their home directories so I don't have to open up rwx access to the world beneath the $TOMCAT_HOME directory.

mod_jk and Tomcat Lose Touch
Hi all, On one of our servers, we were running Red Hat Linux 7.3 with Apache 1.3.X, mod_jk, Sun JDK 1.4.1, and many (~150) instances Tomcat of various flavors. Everything worked perfectly until we upgraded to Red Hat 9. Now, it seems like mod_jk and Tomcat are losing touch until the Tomcat JVM is restarted. This happens after maybe a day or so using both Apache 1.3.X and Apache 2.0.X. From what we've observed, it seems to a problem specific to mod_jk. This is because running Apache 1.3.X or 2.0.X under Red Hat 9 with the old-skool mod_jserv and ~100 Tomcat instances does not cause a problem at all. Also, running either Apache 2 or 1.3 on RH 9 with just a couple JVM's does not cause a problem either. I've already tried re-compiling mod_jk on RH9, the same server that's having the trouble to account for any library change issues. No dice I'm afraid. Any ideas? Thanks! -Fred - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: mod_jk and Tomcat Lose Touch
Ah, the symptoms, of course ;-) There actually aren't any errors AFAIK. Perhaps there's a more verbose logging level? I couldn't find any obvious info on this in the manual. What actually happens is if I make a request to a JSP, for example, that should normally be forwarded onto Tomcat, the request simply hangs forever. Apache logs the request nothing in the Tomcat logs suggest to me it's receiving the request.

Japanese Characters in JSP's
Hi All, I'm having a bit of trouble with getting JSP's with Japanese characters within them. I'm working with a Windows XP system with JDK 1.4.2 and Tomcat 4.1.24. The problem seems persistent, though, on RH Linux with JDK 1.4.1_03 as well. I have no problem with Russian, Arabic, Hebrew, and other non-Latin-1 character sets, just Japanese (so far). More confusing, my test file is a very simple HTML document that Tomcat services properly when I'm simply calling it as an HTML file, such as: http://localhost:8080/testfile.html All I do is rename it to testfile.jsp, and it comes out all garbled. I've done the same test with a myriad of HTML files with various character sets including cp1251, iso8859-5, etc. Everything works fine except for Japanese -- I believe my file uses Shift_JIS. I don't have test files for other multi-byte character sets so I've no idea if it's exclusive to Japanese or if, for example, Chinese would not work either. I've also tried adding response.setLocale (new java.util.Locale (ja)) to the top of the page; it made no difference. I've also tried reading everything I could find, and I'm empty handed. This seems like it shouldn't be quite as difficult as it is. TIA! -Fred - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Japanese Characters in JSP's
Thank you, Punam, for the suggestion -- However this is already specified both in the HTML file, and my browser is setup and capable of viewing x-sjis. This is illustrated by the fact that the exact same file works perfectly under Tomcat so long as its file extension is .html and not .jsp. Only when Tomcat tries to compile the file into a Servlet does it give me any trouble. -Fred Hi Fred, In the html header u will have to set the char set as SHIFT JIS. And in the browser SHIFT JIS should be set. Regards, Punam - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
servlet-Mapping using Tomcat 4
Hi, I am a newby to JSP's, but I already love it. The Situation: -- 1. ServletServer = Tomcat 4 (Standalone) 2. Name of JSP = whoKnows.war 3. Using to deploy = Tomcats-Manager-Interface (FileUpload) 4. Servlet-Mapping (in whoKnows's web.xml) to = /foo/bar 5. Host of VirtuellServer = localhost (default) 6. Port of Host = 8080 (default) 7. OperatingSystem = Linux 8. DeployDir = $TOMCAT_HOME$/webapps My application (whoKnows.war): - 1. My index.jsp takes some information from the user 2. Using form action= method=POST.../form to pipe this forward 3. Using http://localhost:8080/whoKnows/index.jsp works just fine! The problem/question: - 1. The main problem ist, that 'normal call' (/whoKnows/) works fine. That means that I get my index.jsp, and all works the way I wanted to. BUT, if I use /whoKnows/foo/bar my java-class of my jsp-Servlet (defined in whoKnows web.xml) is directly called (skipping my index.jsp). But I still want that my index.jsp is called first. May JSP-Page knows what to do with the java-class. Any Idea how I can configure this? 2. The default context ist the Name of the JSP in the webapps-dir. In this case it is '/whoKnows'. Is there any trick, that I cann change this? I know that it is possible to configure an context for every application in tomcats own xml-configuration files. But who is this done, and is there any better possibility (doing this in whoKnows web.xml for example)? Best regards, Fred -- COMPUTERBILD 15/03: Premium-e-mail-Dienste im Test -- 1.

I have dredge thru the archives and done a bunch of googling and can't quite seem to get all the needed pieces. I want to: have iPlanet iWS 4.1 sp 9 on Solaris 8 forward JSP/Servlet requests to Tomcat 4.1.24. I have seen the neshow page related to jk2, however it is very slanted to Win32.

RE: Re: HTTP error 503. Please please help !
Excuse my naiv question, but if I understand this correctly then the 503 error is returned to the browser (client) by the Webserver due to some kind of problem between the Webserver and the Appserver, in this case TomCat. If I had a servlet that sent of a request to some kind of other server and receive in return the 503 Status Code then that would mean that the webserver that I sent the request to is having problems talking to the Appserver behind it.

Servlet Reloading
To all, Under Tomcat 3.2.2 are there any 'standard' circumstances that a servlet will NOT be reloaded once it has been re-compiled? We already have added the following to our server.xml file: Context path=/foo docBase=webapps/foo reloadable=true /Context But, every time we re-compile the servlet, we are forced to re-start Tomcat. By 'standard' I mean: are there any circumstances, like whether or not the class file is in the classpath, vice being discovered by Tomcat on startup that would cause this to occur. Thanks, Fred

Hi Randy, Thank you for your reaction. I got it working. This will save me a lot of time and will make my application more scalable. Sophie Randy Layman schreef: The answer is you can't. Even if you could get it to generate the file names correctly, Tomcat still wouldn't use them. What you need to do is to use jspc with the option that produces a web.xml file. You then need to incorporate that with your web.xml file, compile the .java files, and you will have a webapp made up of exclusively servlets (and static content) - no more JSP to compile.

Title: How to run through a DMZ firewall. I have been unable to track down any documentation on this configuration. Is there any out there? Where can I get thorough documentation for Tomcat? Thanks in advance, Fred Huelsbeck

RE: Possible Jasper/introspecthelper bug...
Robert, It looks like the INPUT ... should have an equal sign INPUT type="hidden" name="actionType" value"%=dbBean.ACTION_INTERFACE_ADD_USER%" here ^ making it: INPUT type="hidden" name="actionType" value="%=dbBean.ACTION_INTERFACE_ADD_USER%" Fred [EMAIL PROTECTED] -Original Message- From: Robert Wohleb [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 11, 2001 8:30 PM To: tomcat-user listserv Subject: Possible Jasper/introspecthelper bug... PLEASE HELP ME, TOMCAT DEVELOPERS If one of the developers is around please email me. I need help tracking this down. Here is the general situation. I am running tomcat 3.2 with jdk 1.3 on redhat 6.2... I have all JSP pages define a bean with scope=session as jsp:useBean id="dbBean" scope="session" class="parafoil.web.custdb.CustDBBean" / I have a file called main.jsp in /protected/process/ in the root of my web app. All this JSP does is define the bean like above, set all params with jsp:setProperty name="dbBean" property="*" / and then forward to a page that the bean defines based upon the params passed to it with jsp:forward page="%=dbBean.getActionURL()%" / I have a JSP file called main.jsp in /protected/interface/ in the root of my web app. All this JSP does is define the bean as above and show a form by FORM method="post" action="/custdb/protected/process/main.jsp" INPUT type="hidden" name="actionType" value"%=dbBean.ACTION_INTERFACE_ADD_USER%" INPUT type="submit" name="add_user" value="Add User" /FORM The ACTION_INTERFACE_ADD_USER public variable of the bean is defined as a public final int. I'm using this scheme for enumeration. The root of my web app is /custdb/ by the way. All forwards work when hardocded using URLs like /protected/interface/main.jsp When I hit the button to submit the form I get the 500 error listed below. The Jasper Exception does not include a message as with other JasperExceptions I have seen. On stderr I get 2001-01-11 06:46:43 - Ctx( /custdb ): JasperException: R( /custdb + /protected/process/main.jsp + null) Using the 500 error listed below, I followed the line numbers into the src to the convert function that the instrospectionhelper uses. I now print the values for the class type and value to stderr and determined the value being passed contains a single space. To double check, I had the catch of convert() print a stack trace before throwing the JasperException. As I suspected, it was caused by Integer trying to convert a " ". I checked the HTML from within the browser and it shows !-- Add user -- FORM method="post" action="/custdb/protected/process/main.jsp" INPUT type="hidden" name="actionType" value"3" INPUT type="submit" name="add_user" value="Add User" /FORM It's not that the HTML form is passing the space. I'm trying to follow the code back to see where the " " in value is coming from. If one of the developers has an idea I am open to hear it. I am currently using a "build" of the tomcat source so that I can trace this problem, so if you need me to test some code on my sys then please tell me.

zip and tar.gz files bad?
I've just re-subscribed to this list again, so excuse if I missed answers to the following: I've downloaded jakarta-tomcat-3.2.1.zip and tried to unzip it. Unzip tells me its an incomplete file. I then downloaded jakarta-tomcat-3.2.1.tar.gz and gunzip/tar tell me: gunzip: stdin: unexpected end of file tar: Unexpected EOF in archive tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors Looks like incomplete files out there. Any info on this, anyone? Thanks in advance Fred [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
PoolMan
Hi, Can anyone direct me to some kind of list for PoolMan database pooling. I am currently instantiating a JDBCPool through the SQLManager and storing a reference to the SQLManager in the ServletContext. This is all being done in the init method of a "Load-on-startup" servlet. I am wondering if I can make use of some of the higher level functionality of the SQLUtil class. It doesn't seem to keep a reference to the SQLManager or the JDBCPool directly. It uses getInstance of the SQLManager to return a reference to SQLManager, but unless it uses the getClass().getResourceAsStream() methods in its constructor, I don't know how SQLUtil would obtain a reference to the instance of the SQLManager in the ServletContext. Do I need to subclass the SQLUtil class to use its functionality? If anyone can point me in the right direction, I would appreciate it. I am using Tomcat 3.2.1, incidentally. Fred __ Do You Yahoo!?

multipart/form-data problem
I'm trying to send Tomcat a "POST" with an enctype="multipart/form-data". This is for uploading a combination of form data and binary files. Tomcat doesn't appear to take this type. Netscape reports "A network error occurred while sending data. (Network Error: Connection aborted)". I can talk to the servlet if I'm not doing an enctype of multipart/form-data. I've written the Java servlet to handle this and it has been functioning perfectly using Sun's Java Web Server 2.0. The only possible difference with the code should be where Tomcat will attempt to put the uploaded file, but I'm not even getting that far. Anybody do this before with Tomcat? Thanks, Fred Muehlmann [EMAIL PROTECTED]
