RE: Apache Tomcat/4.0.3 - HTTP Status 500 - Internal Server Error -HELP-ME-PLEASE

[Randy Layman]

A few questions to remove the obvious:
1.  Have you restarted Tomcat after copying the jco.jar file?
2.  Does the jco.jar file really have a file /com//jco.class?
3.  Does Tomcat have permissions to read this file (more of an issue
on Unix, but possible on windows)?
4.  Can you run jar -xvf jco.jar to extract the jar file?
5.  Have you tried putting the jar fine in the WEB-INF/lib directory
to see if it works there?
6.  Is Tomcat printing any error message (to catalina.log or the
console) during startup that might indicate its not loading this jar?

That's all I can think of right now.  Try these and see if anything
pops up, if not post back and I'll try another round.

Whatever class you are trying to load on line 51 of Login2.java is
not available to Tomcat.

If you are going to use this group to define relative difficulties then you
would also assume that knowing how to import classes is a difficulty and
reading the servlet specs a complicated issue.

I have to agree with the response you got - its not all that difficult if
you follow the directions EXACTLY.

RE: strange error..

[Randy Layman]

Am I correct that your "servlet" doesn't extend
javax.servlet.Servlet or javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet?  If so, that is
your problem - servlets must extend Servlet or one of its subclasses.

When you call response.sendRedirect, that only sets a response
header.  The JSP continues processing to the next statement and continues
until the end of the JSP page, a return command, or an exception is thrown -
all of which would stop execution of that JSP page.

What you are really looking for is to use threads.  You will need to
start a thread and put it into the session or some other object that won't
be garbage collected.  I would advise you to understand threads before going
very far down this path - threads can be complicated and the problems that
they can cause are not always very straight forward and easy to debug.

RE: JSP on IIS 5.0

[Randy Layman]

This error message indicates one of:
1.  isapi_redirect.dll is not at the file path listed
2.  the user trying to start IIS (the System Account usually)
doesn't have permissions to access the dll
3.  There is some configuration that is very wrong making
isapi_redirect not to load (usually one of the registry entries).

What errors are you getting (500 Internal Server Error, 404 Page Not
Found, 403 Permission Denied, etc) and what is generating them (Tomcat,
IIS)?

You probably want to look at your log files (IIS,
isapi_redirect.log, and Tomcat's) and you will probably be able to determine
the problem from that.

RE: Servlet Deploy Problem Help

[Randy Layman]

To make /search/hello work just set the URL pattern to "/help"
(without quotes).  This will match the literal (and only the literal) /help
within your webapp (which is /seach, apparently).

RE: Servlet Deploy Problem Help

[Randy Layman]

Your problem isn't in the loaded classes (that would be a class not
found).  Instead look at where you are calling the method
java.util.ResourceBundle.getBundle.  The parameter you are passing in
references a resource that Tomcat can't find.

The stack trace you included indicates that you are running the
servlet, but its throwing an exception.

If your servlet wasn't being called then you wouldn't see it in the
stack trace.  I would suggest that you look at how you are loading resources
in your servlet (they are probably not in the classpath).

None.  You need an J2EE server to run enterprise beans, etc.  Tomcat only
supports JSPs and Servlets (and includes a few other APIs like JNDI and
JavaMail), but doesn't include support for the full environment.  You will
need another package (like the Sun's J2EE implementation, JBoss, WebSphere,
Weblogic, etc).

RE: RE: newbie jsp question

[Randy Layman]

>From the Javadocs for java.lang.VerifyError (great source of information, by
the way):

Thrown when the "verifier" detects that a class file, though well formed,
contains some sort of internal inconsistency or security problem. 

So I would say that somehow your JDBC drivers are corrupt.  I have seen
JBuilder produce classes that caused this - a simple recompile fixed
everything for me.  The Stack Trace would seem to indicate the problem is in
interbase.interclient.ErrorKey.  I would suggest trying to create a
standalone application that exhibits this problem and contact the vendor's
technical support with the issue.

RE: Tomcat 3.2.1, 3.2.3, 3.2.4a

[Randy Layman]

The Tomcat 3.2 series had a number of issues with indirect loading
of classes - the servlet or class would call one of Sun's classes to load a
class (like JNDI).  The problem was that the web app's class loader wasn't
visible to the system classes.  In Tomcat 3.2 you can put all your classes
(servlets, utility classes, beans, etc) into a jar file in TOMCAT_HOME/lib
and this should work - although dynamic class reloading will not work!

Tomcat 3.3 works much better in this regard and classes placed into
the WEB-INF/classes and jars in WEB-INF/lib should work just fine with one
exception:  there are certain classes that Tomcat doesn't allow you to load
in the webapp (I don't really understand why, but they do it).  Apparently
the list is a little to long in the current release and the Tomcat 3.3.1
release will allow more classes to be loaded from web app jar files.  If you
search the list archives for articles referencing Tomcat 3.3.1 you should be
able to find the messages about this problem.  To get around this you can
place the classes in TOMCAT_HOME/lib/apps or TOMCAT_HOME/lib/common.

RE: problems connecting to MS Access when Tomca3.2 runs as service

[Randy Layman]

The cause of your error message is that you have the file open
(probably in Access) and the System Account is trying to read the file.  The
JET engine doesn't allow this.

Your more significant and potentially more dangerous problem is that
you are using the JDBC-ODBC bridge.  This component is not thread safe and
can't/shouldn't be used in a concurrent threads.  Sun also considers this
component "experimental" and not for production usage.  You can see Java's
BugParade for more information on this.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]%3E discusses the problem where the
driver is not getting loaded. But, the error I get is different -

--
SQL EXCEPTION OCCURRED CONNECTING TO DB -[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access
Driver] The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file '(unknown)'.
It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you need permission to
view its data.
--
 so it seems like the drivers are getting loaded. I am unable to figure out
the problem. Any help would be greately appreciated. I looked at the ODBC
data source that I have created but found nothing that is out of place.

thanks

RE: bug JDK 1.3

[Randy Layman]

You need to pass the flag -Xrs to the Sun implementations on
startup.  For Tomcat 3.3 this means setting the environment variable
TOMCAT_OPTS to -Xrs.

RE: newbie jsp question

[Randy Layman]

You will need to learn how to use JDBC to access databases.  I would
suggest either going to Sun's JDBC site or looking at Interbase.  Once you
know how to execute the stored procedure from regular Java, JSP is trivial.

You need to rename classesXXX.zip to classesXXX.jar and put it in

RE: exception.getMessage() returns null?

[Randy Layman]

Two possibilities:
1.  The exception that you are catching is a NullPointerException
(which has null as its message).  You can check this by adding
exception.getClass().getName() to your output.
2.  The exception that you are catching is not one provided by Sun
and the developer didn't set the message properly.

RE: Charts in Jsp doesn't work [urgent!]

[Randy Layman]

For Tomcat 3.3 change CATALINA_OPTS to TOMCAT_OPTS.  Otherwise the
directions quoted are correct.  If you insist on modifying the .sh file then
add this command as the second line of the sh file.

RE: Novice here! Classpath issue...Tomcat 3.3/IIS5.0/Win2k/Oracle

[Randy Layman]

You are calling Long.parseLong with a string parameter that is null
(either equal to null or is a literal "null" - I can't remember how this
message is structured right now).

You are making the call from line 77 of the generated .java file for
the JSP page.

RE: Large pages not completely displayed with IE 5.x and Tomcat 4.0.x

[Randy Layman]

I think an obvious first couple of questions:
1.  Is the page competing execution or is it throwing an exception
or perhaps hanging up due to deadlock?
2.  Are you ever clicking the stop button in IE (perhaps causing the
browser to give up before the connection is completed?)

RE: Tomcat tools error

[Randy Layman]

Tomcat can't find the Java Compiler.  This is generally due to an
incorrect JAVA_HOME setting (JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar must be valid).  You
can create a symbolic link from the TOMCAT_HOME/lib/container to tools.jar
if you think you set the variable correctly.

RE: IE 5 on Mac is incompatible with TC 4?

[Randy Layman]

I haven't been following this thread but it seems like you are
saying that Tomcat should be modified to work correctly with IE 5.  The
problem with that is that Tomcat is an reference implementation of a
particular spec (JSP/Servlet) which dictates how things have to work - it is
the reference by which all others are implemented.  It can't change to
accommodate bugs or "special features" of client software.

RE: tuning tomcat!!

[Randy Layman]

For Tomcat on NT as a service, you can set the -Xms and -Xmx in the
registry.  Its HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Service\CurrentControlSet\\Configuration.  You can add new JVM Option Number X (and make sure
to increment the JVM Option Count key) to contain the additional parameters.

RE: Moving to windows from linux ? bug ?

[Randy Layman]

You need to make sure that the directory names are the correct case.
The only way I know to do this is using a command prompt (Windows Explorer
assumes that the first character is upper case and all others are lower).
The only way to fix it is to remove the directory (delete, not rename) and
then create a new directory with the correct capitalization.  You can use
anything you want to create the directories (including mkdir and Explorer),
but they must be the correct capitalization.

RE: Does anyone know of a Tomcat 3.2.4 Memory Leak Problem?

[Randy Layman]

You are correct - once a servlet is loaded into Tomcat it is never
unloaded (it could be according to the spec, but Tomcat doesn't implement
this).  Remember - there is only one instance of the JSP/Servlet for all the
requests, so this isn't the cause of leaking memory, although class
variables that continue to grow in size (string buffers, lists, arrays,
maps, etc) would cause this behavior.

RE: Upgrade to JDK1.4 --> unable to compile JSPs

The ONLY way you get this message is to use a JVM 1.4 JAR file with

RE: Upgrade to JDK1.4 --> unable to compile JSPs

[Randy Layman]

I believe that your problem might stem from a problem in the
catalina.bat file.

First, from a command prompt, type
java -fullversion
and I believe that you will see a response indicating JVM 1.3 or before (not
1.4).  Edit your path statement so that the 1.4 JDK is before the other JVMs
and try the above command again.  Once you get the 1.4 version of java to be
the default version Tomcat should work correctly.

The problem seems to be that catalina.bat doesn't use the absolute
path to the JVM.

RE: Upgrade to JDK1.4 --> unable to compile JSPs

[Randy Layman]

Double (and triple check) that you are really running Tomcat with
JDK 1.4.  This error message is only generated by older JVMs when presented
with newer JAR files (i.e. a 1.3 JVM trying to read a 1.4 JAR file).

RE: Does anyone know of a Tomcat 3.2.4 Memory Leak Problem?

[Randy Layman]

80MB is definitely possible (our application generally runs at about
130MB with peaks into the 300MB range for users, some nightly processing can
push that to more than 500MB), it really depends on your application.

Places where you could be loosing memory:
1.  JavaC.  Apparently JavaC has a memory leak and that memory can
only be reclaimed by stopping and restarting Tomcat.  To avoid this memory
leak you have two options:  A - use JSPC and precompile all your JSPs into
servlets and B - When you do a new release launch Tomcat, have someone hit
every page in the application, and restart Tomcat.
2.  You might want to look at your session timeout along with how
much data you are putting into the session, this could cause you to hold
memory longer than is really necessary
3.  Static variables on classes that somehow grow (like lists or
maps that you keep putting data in and never remove).

You can try running something like OptimizeIt! to determine where
you are using the memory, but you might want to try and narrow down where
the leak is occurring (some small set of actions or screens).

RE: Problems with SendMailServlet

[Randy Layman]

You will need to compile the SendMailServlet yourself for Tomcat
versions 4 through 4.0.3.  There was apparently a problem with the build
script that has been resolved with Tomcat 4.0.4 B1.

RE: Apache Tomcat/4.0.3 - HTTP Status 503 - Servlet SendMailServlet is currently unavailable

[Randy Layman]

There is/was apparently a build problem with Tomcat before 4.04,
which causes SendMailServlet to not be build.  You can build it yourself
using javac, or download the Tomcat 4.04 beta.

RE: Tomcat 4.0 NT Service and OutOfMemory

[Randy Layman]

In the registry, the Tomcat service has a JVM Option Number X string
value key (and a corresponding JVM Option Count).  You will want to
increment the count by 2 and create separate entries for -Xms and -Xmx.

RE: How to use swing classes without X-server

1.  Use JDK1.4 with its new headless command line option
2.  Use one of the psuedo-X servers (search the list archives, this
has been discussed numerous times and names of options and installation
directions should be listed).

RE: Using errorPage

[Randy Layman]

I only ask because you don't mention it - are you throwing the
error?  JSPs only route to the error page if the exception is thrown and not
caught during the execution of your page.  If you don't throw it, or you
throw it and catch it, JSP will never see the error.

RE: How to log shutting down of tomcat

[Randy Layman]

Are you running Tomcat as a service and it happens to shutdown every
time you log off the machine?  If so then you are having a problem with one
of Sun's "feature" enhancements to the JVM.  You need to pass the JVM -Xrs
when it starts up so that it doesn't pay attention to the logoff signal.  In
Tomcat 4 you do this by editing the registry.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Apache
Tomcat\Parameters is the group of setting you will be working with.

First check your JVM Option Number X parameters to make sure you aren't
already passing in a -Xrs.

If not, increase the JVM Option Count's value by one (call this value X for
future reference).  Create a new String Value entry names JVM Option Number
X-1 and the value is -Xrs.  Restart the service, log off, and Tomcat should
still be running.

Another thought might be are you encountering some form of deadlock on the
database?  (Using transactions and thread 1 holds a lock on an object thread
2 needs and thread 2 holds a lock on an object thread 1 needs.)  The
Informix management software should be able to give you a list of all
connections and what they are doing.  If it doesn't seem obvious what is
happening, try randomly killing them off to see if the problem goes away.
If it does you will know the problem is somewhere in your database logic.
Depending upon how your error reporting works, you might even know where the
problem is (server dropping a connection generally a SQLException).

This is also a possibility.  You can use top to capture current memory
usage.  Also, you can use top to determine the number of thread in the jvm
that is causing a problem.  If its one then you have some kind of loop, two
or more implies a threading problem where things are doing a busy wait for
something to happen.

I think what most everyone is going to say is - we haven't seen this problem
caused by Tomcat.  We might have caused something like this ourselves, but
not Tomcat.

This looks to me like either a botched upgrade (you didn't replace
all the JAR files) or a problem with the upgrade (the person who built the
binaries didn't get it quite right).  If you could try upgrading again
(deleting all Tomcat JARs, installing the new ones, and then testing) and
letting this forum know someone will take care of the builds if it is a
problem.

RE: Problem with Tomcat or Servlet?

[Randy Layman]

Since Tomcat knows nothing about MySQL (or your database in
particular), I would be willing to be that you have a problem in your code.
You probably want to look at the line where the NullPointer is being thrown.

A random guess - you only create your Connection or Statement object
when you create a new record and not for select.

RE: Getting multiple instances of my servlet, although it doesn't implement SingleThreadModel

[Randy Layman]

I guess what I said has led to some confusion.  I meant that each
 tag creates an instance.

Here are the possible reasons for getting multiple instances:
1.  Multiple  tags in web.xml
2.  One or more  tag(s) in web.xml and using /servlets/ to
access your servlet
3.  Having the same context loaded multiple times.  This generally
happens because the AutoContextLoader (or whatever its called) is still
enabled and an explicit Context is also defined, making two contexts (and
two instances of the servlets).

RE: [Dim Question] Redirecting GET http://blah.com/ resource -> GET /resource - Tomcat 4

[Randy Layman]

The HTTP Protocol says requests must be formatted as:
GET /resource

and you are sending:
GET http://server/

and you want to know if these should be reformatted before they get to
Tomcat?  The should be reformatted before they are sent!  I would guess that
your proxy can't deal with HTTP requests on non-standard ports.  Probably
the only way to solve this without recoding the proxy would be to run Tomcat
on port 80 (the standard).

However, the question remains as to why you are even trying to use a
proxy for this - Tomcat 4's filters give you a good opportunity to read and
log all parts of the request.

You haven't correctly set your JAVA_HOME environment variable.  You

RE: Getting multiple instances of my servlet, although it doesn't implement SingleThreadModel

[Randy Layman]

Basically, Tomcat will create a separate instance for each unique
URL that the servlet responses to.

(Technically, every time you define the servlet in the web.xml there
is a separate instance, and another instance is created when you use the
ServletInvoker to invoke the servlet by /servlet/className.)

RE: JSP programming under Tomcat 4.0.2

[Randy Layman]

I believe that this is one of the ambiguities of the JSP/Servlet
spec.  You old version will only work on Tomcat 3.3, not TC 3.2 or the newer
4.0, and it will only work if the JSP file is in the root directory of your
webapp.  The reason is how the .java files are generated.  

Under Tomcat 3.3 the package is set to be the path within the web
app.  The root directory is in the unnamed package and JSP files in an
sample1 directory are in the sample1 package.  Since Java implicitly imports
all classes in the same package, jcrypt, which is also in the unnamed
package, is found under this scheme.

Under other versions of Tomcat the package has other text preprended
to the directory to make the package name (I believe one of them uses
org.apache.jsp, but I'm not absolutely sure about that).  In this case only
other JSP files in the same directory are implicitly imported and jcrypt
isn't.

I don't believe that the spec specifies a requirement on this (I'm
sure Craig will correct me if I'm wrong), which leads to the portable JSP
developers rule - Import all classes needed!

If so then it doesn't comply with the JSP spec.


One thing to remember is that only variables declared in the <%! ...
%> blocks and page scoped beans are shared between requests.  If you want
variables that are used only in the scope of one request then either use <%
... %> blocks or set your bean scope to request.

RE: Why "localhost:8080" NOT expanded to "http://localhost:8080"

[Randy Layman]

Not quite - A fully qualified URL is formatted like:
procotol://hostname:port/path
The hostname is immediately follows // and is terminated by the next
element.  This allows the : to unambiguous, even if the optional elements

RE: Why "localhost:8080" NOT expanded to "http://localhost:8080"

[Randy Layman]

ICANN assigned HTTP traffic (that for the web) to port 80.
Consequently, web browsers assume that web traffic will occur over port 80.
They also handle other protocols (like FTP on 21).  Since 8080 is no an
assigned number for a protocol the web browser doesn't know how to talk to
the other end.  Therefore you have to tell it what protocol to use (HTTP).

RE: [TC402] Manager Context in IIS 5 is access denied

[Randy Layman]

Check the permissions for the redirector dll and the virtual
directory.  Also, if you want Tomcat to handle authentication (which you
need for the manager app), IIS must be configured to allow anonymous access
to the virtual directory.

RE: JSP programming under Tomcat 4.0.2

[Randy Layman]

All versions of Tomcat (and all JSP containers for that matter)
require you to add <%@ page import=""%> to your JSP files.

Also, Tomcat versions 3.3 and beyond ignore your system's classpath
variable - it causes to may problems with people not understanding how this
interacted with the web apps.

Lastly, lots of people have experience using JSP with Tomcat 4.02.
If you have more specific questions please ask - this is the right forum.

RE: REPOST: Please HELP!: URL Mapping Problems in servlet

[Randy Layman]

I think that this approach is very close to what you want.  Instead
of lastIndexOf("/") you could do lastIndexOf (or indexOf) getServletName.
Another alternative would be to use lastIndexOf(getPathInfo()) on the
request URI.

As to why the methods return what they do, its because the spec says
so.

RE: ClassNotFoundException

[Randy Layman]

I don't' believe what you are trying to do is possible.  Class
loaders are created in a hierarchical manner with the children knowing about
their parents, but not the parents knowing about the children.  This makes
it impossible for the current class loader (using Class.forName) to find the
class file loaded by a child class loader (which the WEB-INF is).

I see that you have three options:
1.  Engineer another solution to your problem
2.  Move MyServletClass into common
3.  Move MyBaseServletClass into all the WEB-INFs.

Personally the order of approach I would take is 3, 2, and then 1.

RE: Servlet POST results in 404 error

[Randy Layman]

It sounds like the servlet is trying to use PathInfo (extra
characters beyond the real servlet's name for parameters).  In your web.xml
you probably want to make your URL mapping something like /servletname/* so
that every URL that starts with servletname is called for that servlet.

RE: Servlet POST results in 404 error

[Randy Layman]

Is it possible that your servlet is seeing the POST, processing it,
and then sending a redirect to a non-existent page?

You might want to check the Tomcat and IIS/Apache/iPlanet logs to
find out what URL is being used to get the 404, that way you will know how
Tomcat or the connector is trying to interpret your request.

RE: Ho can I make my URL shorter?

[Randy Layman]

/adminContact/* indicates that the servlet should only respond if
the trailing slash is present.  What you probably want is /adminConcact
(respond to one specific URL).

RE: Path error in Tomcat startup scripts on Linux

Is it possible that in your Context definition in either server.xml

one?

Apache is a web server.  Tomcat is a JSP/Servlet container.  Tomcat can run
JSPs and Servlets (which Apache can't without something like Tomcat).
Tomcat can serve web pages (latest versions have support for SSI and CGI),
but its primary focus is Servlets, making Apache much faster at other forms
of content than Tomcat.

> 
> Is Tomcat an add-on or a replacement of Apache ?
Both.  It can replace Apache, but with a performance hit for static content.
It can be an add-on to give Apache JSP/Servlet functionality.

Speed.  Perhaps feature support that isn't in Tomcat (i.e. mod_perl).

All Tomcat 3 and 4 can be set up for Apache 1.3.x (perhaps 1.2.x, but don't'
quote me on that).  Apache 2.0.x support isn't fully completed, I believe.

Tomcat website is http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat.  There is a lot of
documentation there about Tomcat and from there you can browse the CVS

RE: Create a log file under my application directory

[Randy Layman]

Tomcat doesn't support .zip on any platform, and its because of the
spec, not the developer's preference.  Simply rename your .zip to .jar (they
are the same structure, just different names).

Because the Contexts are managed by Tomcat you need to put the
classes12.jar into the CATALINA_HOME/lib/common directory (Tomcat needs to
see them, lib/container might also work).

The most common problem is not renaming classesXXX.zip to
classesXXX.jar.  (Tomcat doesn't automatically see ZIP files, but it does
JAR).

You are not creating a bean named emp for the jsp:getProperty.  You

RE: Running Tomcat 4.0.2 on a Sun 1.4.0 JVM?

[Randy Layman]

This error message indicates that you are not running Catalina in
JDK 1.4 because the JDK produces file in format 48, but the previous
versions of the JDK/JRE are not able to read the file format (which is
indicated by the "version is to recent for this tool to understand").

Double check how you start JBoss to verify that it is running on the
new JDK and not using just the first JRE in your path.  You also might want
to try and remove all old versions of Java.

RE: web.xml in Tomcat 4.0 -- HELP

[Randy Layman]

Your question is missing what the Tomcat logs are saying.  

If I had to make a blind guess, you have the parameters in web.xml
out of order, which is causing Tomcat to not load the web.xml file (and thus
causing the 404 error).

RE: HELP PLEASE!!!: JSP/Tomcat/MySQL

[Randy Layman]

First, you probably want to send messages in plain text and not HTML
- a number of the people who can answer your question have mail readers that
make it difficult to view HTML messages.

Second, you need to add import statements to the top of your JSP
page for the java.sql package (i.e. <%@ page import="java.sql.*" %>

Subject: HELP PLEASE!!!: JSP/Tomcat/MySQL


Hello JSP developers! 

I have a problem trying to connect to MySQL database when I am doing a JSP
or a servlet. I think the problem has to be with Tomcat, because when I do a
java application with a database connection works perfectly, so there must
be Tomcat. 

I am working with Java j2sdk1.4.0 and Netbean as my IDE. When I compile the
JSP under the IDE does not give me any errors but when I try to see the
result with Tomcat 4.0 does not seem to recognize the mm.mysql driver and
gives me the following errors:

Generated servlet error:
D:\Apache Tomcat 4.0\work\localhost\_\JspMySQL$jsp.java:75: Class
org.apache.jsp.Connection not found.

Generated servlet error:
D:\Apache Tomcat 4.0\work\localhost\_\JspMySQL$jsp.java:76: Class
org.apache.jsp.ResultSet not found.
ResultSet results;

It gives me more errors, related to the connection. If you are willing to
help me I can send you the exception report that Tomcat generates. 

I would really appreciate if you help me about this issue, because I am
beginnig to get frustated. 

Thanks

RE: Forwarding requests to other Services?

[Randy Layman]

Response.sendRedirect sends the client web browser a Resource
Temporarily Moved header (I believe its header 302).  The client then makes
a second request to the referred resource.  If you want any parameters
passed, you must put them in the redirected resource URL yourself, and you
are limited to GET parameters.  Example -
response.sendRedirect("http://otherserver:443/path/to/other/servlet?ID=value
&id2=value");
Also you must return from the method that sends this because all its really
doing is calling setHeader.

RE: Forwarding requests to other Services?

[Randy Layman]

You could either use response.sendRedirect to the servlet or
jva.net.URLConnection to call the other servlet and then stream the output
from the servlet to your response.getOutputStream.

RE: application object size.

[Randy Layman]

I don't know of a recommendation, but there is no maximum.  The
Application object is stored as a map in the JVM process so you are only
limited by the memory available to the JVM.

RE: Tomcat 4.0 crash

[Randy Layman]

Are you using
1.  The JDBC-ODBC Bridge
2.  Native Code
these are the most common source of crashes.  The JDBC-ODBC bridge
is not thread safe and concurrent access will crash the JVM.  Native code
can have similar problems (and other memory-related problems) that will also
cause a crash.  The last source of a crashing problem would be a JVM bug
which would require an upgrade, downgrade, or side grade, depending upon
which version you are currently using.

Are you running any code that calls System.exit?  This would be the
only way that the JVM would exit Tomcat and it not be a crash.

RE: cannot compile JSP in tomcat 4.02 + JSDK 1.4

[Randy Layman]

It would seem that you are running Java with a 1.3 or before version
of the JVM, but using 1.4 version of the classes.

If possible, I would remove all versions of Java that are not 1.4,
or at least get them out of your PATH environment variable.  

Double check your JAVA_HOME variable to make sure its pointing to
1.4.

If none of that works, try running JAVA_HOME\bin\java -fullversion
to make sure you are running 1.4 and if not, reinstall.

I don't believe that this is possible.  On the up side, though, the only way
a student could crash Tomcat is by calling System.exit or loading native
code that crashes.  Both of these options can be disabled using the security
settings for the JVM.  One student would still be able to hog all the
processor, memory, and hard drive resources that you allow Tomcat to take,
though.

The question would be how do you currently set up IIS (I'm not very familiar
with what you are doing with IIS).  I believe that you can only load each
filter once for each host (real or virtual), which would mean that you
couldn't load the filter for each student unless they each have their own
virtual host.

I haven't seen anyone ask these questions about IIS, but the questions of
this type do come up for Apache - epically from ISPs trying to set up Tomcat
for their clients.

RE: Tomcat as an NT service again...

[Randy Layman]

This probably won't come as a surprise to you, but the problem is
your classpath.  The error you posted indicates that Tomcat can't load the
XML parser.  I would check the JavaService syntax for setting the classpath
and then verify that jaxp and parser are at the path indicated.

By the way - to make jk_nt_service work with JDK 1.3 you need to
pass the -Xrs option to the Java Command created on the last line of the
wrapper.properties file.

I don't know what tool the Jakarta guys use to build the installer,
but I know that for a project I worked on last year we had the same

RE: Tomcat as a service...

[Randy Layman]

I just downloaded and installed Tomcat 4.02 binary and everything
works fine for me.  The installer detected the JVM (1.3) on installation.
The only difference is that I installed to a directory without spaces in it.

It would seem that the service configuration is stored in the
registry at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Services\Apache Tomcat\Parameters.
You might want to check these and make sure that the installer filled in the
parameters correctly (epically quoting the parameters correctly).

RE: Tomcat as a service...

[Randy Layman]

They should be in the logs directory, but you might want to try
searching the system for the files.  Their lack of existence would point to
the service not even getting loaded, probably a problem with your JAVA_HOME.
I don't know about Tomcat 4, but with Tomcat 3 you had to edit the
wrapper.properties file in the conf directory to set the JAVA_HOME. Maybe
someone more familiar with Tomcat 4 could indicate how to set the JAVA_HOME
for the service?

RE: Tomcat as a service...

[Randy Layman]

The reason that you get the message is because the only errors that
can be reported are those detected by 2000 (like missing binary, improper
permissions, etc).

I would suggest that you look at the jvm.stderr and jvm.stdout for
more information about what the error is that you are getting.

RE: No suitable driver Datasource Problem

[Randy Layman]

I'm would guess that your JDBC driver is not available to the
correct class loader.  Try moving the JDBC driver up to the
TOMCAT_HOME/lib/common directory, restart Tomcat, and see if that works.

RE: jsp and tomcat4

[Randy Layman]

This message actually showed up before your other one (at least in
my mail box).

The source of this problem is an improperly set JAVA_HOME.  You must
set JAVA_HOME such that JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar is a valid file.

RE: org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP

Open up the generated Java file, but I believe that you will see
some extra stuff before the imports from something at the top of your JSP
file that shouldn't be there.

You have a servlet-mapping before the last servlet.  With Tomcat 4
(and maybe 3.3) you have to have the elements in the right order.

RE: Problem with SendMailServlet examples application

[Randy Layman]

Tomcat doesn't compile .java files into .class files.  As far as I
know, this is only a feature of Resin and none of the other servlet
containers.  You will need to use javac to convert your .java into a .class
and put that file into the WEB-INF/classes directory.

Another option for this is to upgrade to JDK 1.4 and then use the
headless option (check Java's docs for more info on how to do this).  Then
you can create images without the need for X.  (This doesn't work if you are
using GUI objects like Frame).

RE: Error Executing JSPs

[Randy Layman]

Without modifying the startup script I don't believe this will help
- Tomcat ignores any CLASSPATH variable you might have set.  Instead, the
JAVA_HOME must be set so that JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar is valid, or tools.jar
needs to be copied (or symlinked) to the TOMCAT_HOME/lib/container
directory.

RE: changing a user's password on linux using jsp exec.

[Randy Layman]

1.  I believe that you want a PrintWriter or add \n to the end of
the passwords (the user presses enter when running passwd).  This is
probably causing your symptom of nothing happening (passwd waiting for you,
you waiting for passwd).
2.  Only some users (maybe just root) can change other user's
passwords.  You will need to run Tomcat as root, which introduces its own
set of security issues.

RE: Application in Tomcat 3.2.2 wun work in J2EE?

[Randy Layman]

It looks like J2EE can't find the class user.UserBean.  I would
suggest you move that class into the WEB-INF/classes/user directory and try
again.

RE: Loading property files using ClassLoader.getSystemResource()

[Randy Layman]

First, you could use getResource instead of getSystemResource.
System Resource doesn't use the class loader delegation and only uses the
root class loader.  Second, if you don't want to change your code, you need
to modify the wrapper.properties file.  In there it builds up a classpath
that is then passed on to Java.  You could add your directory to that
classpath.

Subject: Can't get IIS and tomcat to work PLEASE HELP !!!


Can someone PLEASE help, I have been working on this for the best part of a
week, without making any progress - 
 
2002-02-08 15:15:12 127.0.0.1 - 127.0.0.1 80 GET /jakarta/isapi_redirect.dll
- 404 Mozilla/4.0+(compatible;+MSIE+6.0;+Windows+NT+5.0)
 



First, if you want everyone on the list to read your messages then
you want to follow the recommended procedure and avoid sending HTML/RTF type
messages.  A number of people on the list can't read these messages without
a lot of effort.

Second, the 404 error that you have above is most likely the cause
of your problem.  It would indicate that IIS can't find the DLL.  Possible
reasons:
1.  The "jakarta" virtual directory wasn't created correctly (i.e.
misspelled or doesn't contain isapi_redirect.dll)
2.  The Windows file permissions doesn't allow whoever is running
IIS to see the dll file

This should be c:\progra~1\tomcat4\lib\common

> c:\progra~1\tomcat4\lib

I believe the orginial poster intended for this to be
c:\progra~1\tomcat4\lib\apps

> c:\progra~1\tomcat4\webapps\sqaa\WEB-INF\lib

This should work for webapp sqaa

> c:\jdk1.3.1_01\lib
> c:\jdk1.3.1_01\jre\lib
> c:\j2ee\lib

You don't really want to use any of these, they will cause the same kinds of
problems as using the CLASSPATH, which is why Tomcat no longer supports that
configuration option.
