Re: jre or jdk
Bonjour! The only thing tomcat needs out of the JDK is the tools.jar file. If you take a tools.jar file from a JDK and put it in your CLASSPATH, you can use a JRE to launch tomcat. The problem with the 8007 I don't know. I think by default tomcat listens on port 8080. The thing to do is make sure tomcat works on port 8080 then try to get it working with apache.

Re: advice on setting up server for student projects?
Hi, I have done this before on my Linux server, but only by manually modifying server.xml to explicitly add contexts that point to something off of each user's home directory. For example, in my server.xml file (tomcat 3.2.2) I've got the following: So that my friend Craig can play with JSP's in his public_html directory. Since I rely on mod_jk.conf-auto, I have to restart tomcat to regenerate the newer mod_jk.conf-auto then I have to restart apache to re-read mod_jk.conf-auto What you probably want to do, is copy AutoSetup.java to something like HomeDirSetup.java then modify HomeDirSetup.java such that it automatically adds contexts from /home/*/public_html/jsp so that each user gets a tomcat context. Was this clear? Didn't sound clear when I typed it.

Re: Servlet Aliasing
Hi, To the best of my understanding (which might not be great) any entries in your context's web.xml file basically tell tomcat "hey, if you happen to be handling the current request, I've got a servlet whose URI is file://xxx/yyy " The thing is, tomcat might not be handling the request in the first place. Best thing to try is let tomcat listen on port 8080 (the default config does this I think) then see if your servlets work. If they do, then you're halfway there, you just need to adjust whatever file httpd.conf is Include-ing. -Mike - Original Message - From: "ryan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, June 06, 2001 3:20 PM Subject: Servlet Aliasing > I am running tomcat 3.22, with mod_jk, and apache 1.3.20.

I'm not sure about that one... Try using a context path of "", also, you could try "*.jsp" that might also work. You could also try just running tomcat as your web server!

Re: how to put jsp files in regular apache root?
Just have a look at $TOMCAT_HOME/server.xml you'll see an entry that looks like: Just make another entry right after it with a different docBase and path, for example: then the next time you restart tomcat, it'll make a new conf/mod_jk.conf-auto that'll have all of the stuff that mod_jk.so needs to intercept any urls that look like "/geraldjsp" You'll need to restart apache so that apache will re-read httpd.conf, which in in turn make apache re-read the mod_jk.conf-auto Hope this helps! -Mike - Original Message - From: "Gerald Koh" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Tomcat User" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, June 04, 2001 12:23 PM Subject: how to put jsp files in regular apache root? > Hi, I have redhat 7.1 running apache 1.3.19 and tomcat 3.2.2. right now it > is working, but there are a few outstanding issues.

Hi everyone! I have successfully built and tested mod_jk.so for Solaris-Sparc.

Re: problem installing mod_jk
Sounds like a permissions problem. Apache usually runs as user "nobody" or user "apache". Just make sure that the user apache runs as can "read" ..mod_jk.conf-auto. Try copying the generated mod_jk.conf-auto to the same directory that your httpd.conf file lives, then restart tomcat and apache. If everything then works, you know that it is not a problem with mod_jk.so etc. -Mike Jennings - Original Message - From: "Jacek Kempski" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, June 04, 2001 11:14 AM Subject: problem installing mod_jk > Hello, > > i am new to tomcat; try to configure apache with tomcat using mod_jk. > I run SuSE Linux 7.1, Apache 1.3.14, JDK 1.3 > > I have built mod_jk.so and put it to the libraries directory. > I can start tomcat with no problems > I've included mod_jk.conf-auto in the httpd.conf > and included in the server.xml > Starting apache brings an error "cannot open ...mod_jk.conf-auto" (with the > right path to the mod_jk.conf-auto which by the way exists after tomcat's start) > > how can i fix it? > > thanks in advance, > > jacek >
Re: ** JVM and Processes
Title: RE: ** JVM and Processes My understanding of green vs. native threads is as follows: With native threads, an actual system thread is created when a Java thread is created. On linux a system thread takes the form of another process, but one that shares memory etc. with another process. This is why if you create a program that allocates 100 megs of memory, then spins off 10 threads, it looks like 10 processes each taking up 100 megs of memory, when in fact the amount of memory is 100 megs + 10*overhead for each thread (not much more than 100 megs). On WIN32 systems, threads do not show up as separate processes, they are separate threads of execution inside the same process (essentially the same as the Linux implementation with differences too subtle to care about) Green threads on the other hand use timers, signals, setjmp etc. voodoo to "simulate" threads within one process. Essentially taking over the scheduling from the kernel. I believe the command-line option for green threads is simply "-green" as in java -green MyThreaddedApp If you have a multi-cpu system, green threads will only take advantage of one cpu, whereas native threads will use all the cpus on your system (that's the theory anyway) I've heard of problems with blocking I/O with green threads, but have no first hand knowledge.

Re: How to use Tomkat with apache.
Bonjourno! I managed to get tomcat working on my computer, here is what I did. 1) Make sure you have JDK 1.3 installed on your computer (to verify, type in java -version) In order to make JDK 1.3 run properly on RedHat 7.1, in your /etc/profile file put in a line saying: ulimit -s 2000 also, make sure that the following files exist: /usr/bin/expr /usr/bin/dirname /usr/bin/cut /usr/bin/head Those files are used by the "java" script that launches the actual JVM. For instance, on my computer, my java 1.3 sdk is installed at /usr/j2sdk1_3_0 so if I type in "more /usr/j2sdk1_3_0/bin/java" it shows the shell script used to launch the JVM. 2) download the tomcat binaries (3.2.1 is the latest non-beta) 3) unzip the tomcat binaries somewhere appropriate For example: on my computer I put tomcat in /usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-3.2.1 4) edit the startup script(s) in the bin subdirectory of your tomcat installation on my computer: /usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-3.2.1/bin 5) launch tomcat and have fun!
