How to route requests by URL

[Rick Snide]

I know how to setup an application such as www.mywebsite.com/myapp so that Tomcat 
knows what to do with URLs that have the "/myapp" appended - to setup security, etc. 


Are we also able to have something like myapp.mywebsite.com such that Tomcat knows 
what to do with it?  I would like to do this and route it to webapps/myapp


Thanks in advance.

Session Tracking / User Authentication

[Rick Roberts]

Can anyone point me to a good reference for handling session tracking 
and user authentication?

All I'm trying to do is authenticate a user (form based) and redirect 
them to the login page if their session times out.

It should be pretty simple, but I'm having trouble with it and I can't 
find any good reference material on the subject.

I have "JSP Professional" (1st Ed.) but the example does not work with 
Tomcat.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks,

Rick

Re: Session already invalidated

[Rick Roberts]

Maybe Im asking the wrong question.

Does anyone have a code snipet that demonstrates how to do Session 
management without using cookies?

The example I found in the book "Professional JSP" is not working for me.

Thanks in advance.

Re: Session already invalidated

[Rick Roberts]

This seems reasonable to me.  In fact someone had suggested this in the 
archives some months ago to someone elses query about this same issue.

But when I do this.  The exception is still passed to my error page.

Do you know of anyway to prevent that?

Thanks for the help.

Re: Session already invalidated

[Rick Roberts]

I'm not sure what you are trying to tell me.

If you are wondering if the monitor bean works, the answer is yes it does.

If I do what you suggest:

// Got user.  Do they already have a session?
if ( !monitor.containsKey(user) ){
   // There's _NOT_ an old session for this user - invalidate it
   HttpSession oldSession = (HttpSession)monitor.get(user);
   oldSession.invalidate();
}

Then, I get:
java.lang.NullPointerException
  at checkLogin_1._jspService(checkLogin_1.java:135)

at "oldSession.invalidate()"

It seems that when tomcat tries to invalidate() a session.  I get an 
error that says the session is already invalidated.  But, I know the 
session is not already invalidated.

Is this a tomcat bug?


Thanks,

Rick

Session already invalidated

[Rick Roberts]

I have the book "Professional JSP" (1st Edition).
Chapter 5 has some session management code that does not work.
I have searched the different newsgroups and tomcat archives, and have 
found where others have asked this question but I can't find where 
anyone has answered it.

The problem is that whenever "oldSession.invalidate()" is called; I get 
the following error message:

java.lang.IllegalStateException: getAttributeNames: Session already 
invalidated

I am using Tomcat 3.3, JDK 1.3.1_01 and Apache on RedHat Linux 7.2.

Here is the problem code:

---

<%@ page language="java" import="java.util.*" errorPage="error1.jsp"%>


   




<%
  String username = request.getParameter( "username" );
  String password = request.getParameter( "password" );
  loginBean.setUserName( username );
  loginBean.setPassword( password );

  String display = "index.html";
  User user = loginBean.authenticate();
  if( user != null ){
user.setIPAddr(request.getRemoteHost());
// Got user.  Do they already have a session?
if( monitor.containsKey(user)){
  // There's an old session for this user - invalidate it
  HttpSession oldSession = (HttpSession)monitor.get(user);
  String sID1 = oldSession.getId();
  System.out.println("Existing Session detected: " + sID1);
  oldSession.invalidate();
}

session.setAttribute("user", user);
monitor.put(user, session);
String sID = session.getId();
System.out.println("Session Created: " + sID);

session.setMaxInactiveInterval(300);

display="browse.jsp";
  }
%>





Any help greatly appreciated.

4.0.3 is identical to 4.0.2 for this, so both have the same bug, which is
described here:
http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6374

4.0.4 beta 1 fixes the bug.
A workaround could be moving Xalan and the javax.xml.transform classes to
common/lib.

XSL problem with upgrade to 4.0.3

[Mangi, Rick]

I recently upgraded from 4.0 to 4.0.3 to try to fix a problem I was having
with LDAP. Good news, the LDAP stuff works better with 4.03. Bad news, my
XSL stuff stopped working. 

I tried moving the xalan libs out of common/lib and into the server lib (and
btw: whoever wrote the docs on that you should be more clear about where the
jasper lib stuff goes). That didn't work.

I keep getting these errors :

Directory listings in Tomcat 4 are created by the "default" file-serving
servlet that also serves static content.  This servlet is configured in
the "$CATALINA_HOME/conf/web.xml" file that defines servlet-based services
for all web applications - in particular, see the "listings" init
parameter.

StaticInterceptor replacement in 4.0.x

[Rick Szeto]

Hi all, 
I need to find a way to disable directory listing in tomcat 4.0.x. This previously 
was accomplished StaticInterceptor, but I have not found an equivalent Valve in 4.0.x.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

P.S. And no, putting index.html in every directory is not a feasible nor a 
satisfactory solution.

Please share your conclusions.

To throw in my two cents regarding servlets over other
technologies:

ASP: It's from Microsoft, and a lot of people don't
trust Microsoft. Plus their solutions are easy to
initially implement but difficult to maintain and
extend. Plus it's ONLY from Microsoft. So if you like
ASP but don't like how MS treats you or how much they
charge, you have nowhere to go.

PHP: I haven't done much with PHP, but I think a
couple of disadvantages compared to servlets/JSP are:
1.I don't think PHP can handle threads. 2. Unlike
Java, PHP really can't be used in non-web apps.

ColdFusion: Don't know much about it. But again I
believe there is only one vendor.

Why does it bug you that big companies use servlets

I have an application that has a bean with application scope.

Anyone know how I could do this?

What does this message mean?

   DecodeInterceptor: Charset from session ISO-8859-1

Tomcat generates this message every time I refresh a JSP page.
Is it something that I should be concerned about?
Or, is it a nuisance message?  If so, can I disable it?

Re: Vectors? Why does this not work?

I'm actually building a bean for a Tomcat JSP app that I am working on.

That is it
I looked at this for hours and never noticed "static".

Basically:

1. I'm an idiot.
2. And you quickly pointed that out.
3. I'm grateful.

the .java files are right there I dont get why the compiler doesent see

if the naming directorues were included but its not there there in the newer

Re: installing Tomcat on MAC

use the "java" application from the mrj and make sure you include all the

RE: intranet authentication with win2k

What we have done is integrate NT authentication into a Tomcat realm. Using
WIN2k you can use either the com.sun.security.auth packages to Use
NTLoginModule (this only works on windows and only for the currently logged
in user). Or you can use the Krb5 security module same group ... OR... you
can use the fact that every WIN2k domain controller has an LDAP server in it
as well ( active directory), login to it with DOMAIN credentials and query a
custom attribute for roles. Be forwarned that Active Directory does not play
by the LDAP rules. What a suprise!

intranet authentication with win2k

[Mangi, Rick]

Greetings tomcat users! 

This question is 1/2 tomcat 1/2 apache. I'm developing an intranet site. The
users logon with NT authentication onto our local network. The intranet is
running tomcat/apache on solaris. I'm wondering if anyone has a solution for
authenticating these users on the intranet without them having to log onto a
separate system. I know there is an apache module for tying apache
authentication to NT security (and I assume it's easy enough to pass this on
to tomcat). But we're thinking of moving to the win2k "native security"
system which I know nothing about. 

has anyone tackled this before? Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Rick

RE: Welcome to the Tomcat 4.0 F.A.Q. on-line forum.

[Mangi, Rick]

let me clarify.

I support the idea of a forum whole hartedly. I think it will cut down on
repeat questions and answers. It will allow people to post much more
detailed suggestions and solutions since you know that your posting will
survive past 24 hours. 

However

If I'm reading Pier's instructions correctly, then having to check at the
bottom of a message for a link to tell you that this is a posting from the
forum and directing you to click on the link and reply at the forum... that
won't work. 

I suggest rethinking that strategy and either separate the two (email
list/forum) completely, or come up with a system whereby people can post to
the form via email reply to the message.

RE: Welcome to the Tomcat 4.0 F.A.Q. on-line forum.

[Mangi, Rick]

Pier,

I don't think this makes a whole lot of sense. I understand the advantages
of a forum vs. a mailing list, but requiring people to look for a link at
the bottom and then register to reply... it just ain't gonna happen, and
you're going to spend a lot of time reminding people to check if it's a
message from the forum. I'd suggest you filter on the subject fields and
have an agent subscribed to the mailing list automatically posting the
messages up there.

Being a realist... I don't see this working.

Rick

Subject: Welcome to the Tomcat 4.0 F.A.Q. on-line forum.


In the effort of better managing our resources Apache wide, and specifically
in our case in the scope of the Jakarta project, here is a little new
addition to our set of "tools". A web-based forum system.

Some of you have asked "why" do we need a forum, aren't our mailing lists
enough to support our needs? My reply is simple, we need both.

The on-line forum, first of all, allows you do a couple of nifty things that
people asked: search messages in an intelligent way (our mail archives
already do so, but most of the time, the precision of their search engine is
not, well, the best you can get).

Plus, each question there is organized and threaded better than any Email
client can do (there is a big discussion about how to interpret the
In-Reply-To header, and some popular email clients "forget" to include it in
messages), and the topics are way more visible than on a mailing list with
an average of more than 200 messages a day.

There are some more features, like: wouldn't it be nice to be able to be
notified and receive replies only to MY particular question, avoiding all
the other hundreds of emails that flow daily to your mail client? Well, a
web forum allows you to do that, you can create a thread, the one with your
little particular problem, and "watch it", being notified via email about
what replies I got only to my problem. Or looking and being notified about
that little problem I had and was reported by another guy... All that can be
done only thru a well-managed forum, and the current internet-mail system is
not sufficient to achieve that.

And PLUS, every message you send thru the web-forum is actually "mirrored"
on our mailing list (I'm still figuring out how to do the opposite, but
given enough brainpower -which I don't have at the moment - I'm sure I can
do that!), so everyone will see it (nope, you won't loose visibility, and
you don't have to post your messages twice).

I just a couple of little favors to ask you all. If you see a message coming
from the web-forum (and you will recognize it by the lines at the bottom of
the message, take this one for example), and you want to reply, don't simply
hit "reply" on your client, but instead click on the link at the bottom, and
respond on-line. Your message will be archieved, stored, and you won't have
to reply to the same question anymore. And if you want to reply to someone
on the list, before doing so, check whether the same question has already
been answered on the forum. The more we use it now, the less we'll have to
use it in the future.

Last little question, please, if you see something wrong or offensive on the
forum, please notify <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, and we'll be
able to remove it...

Thanks for listening...

Pier

If you call shutdown.sh (or tomcat.sh stop) and then do ps -eaf |grep java
you will most likely see the process still running for a while. Once it goes
away you can restart. It won't restart 'cuz it hasn't shut down yet...
hence, the port is still bound.

I'm facing the same problem with Tomcat 3.2.1

When I call "tomcat.sh stop" it shows the PATH used for the classes and then
it says "Stop Tomcat". But when I try to restart it typing "tomcat.sh

FATAL:java.net.BindException: Address already in use

Of course, it's a socket error meaning that it wasn't actually stopped...

I see the same problems that Evan mentions (solaris). It takes about 30-45
seconds to shutdown on a devel server with no users and only 1 (albeit
large) servlet and a few dozen JSPs. Don't have any JDBC connections or
anything else like that.

Similarly, startup takes about 15-20 seconds. On windows it takes about 5
seconds.

  I've got Tomcat 4.0.1/JDK1.3.1_01 shutting down happily on Solaris x86
just spiffy like. It does seem to take it a while to spool everything

Make sure that all your servlets clean up after themselves and it should

the driver still will not work.

In a FORM data that uses POST method, I need to upload a file

according to oreily, forms should be ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data",
however, when this thing is added, all the inputs in the form
can not be reached by

how can i fix it?

RE: USE TOMCAT INSTEAD OF IIS

[Mangi, Rick]

Like any well planned out software project the ideal solution is derived
from the requirements. There are very few broad statements such as "Maybe
for large volume servers, but for smaller servers (<10 requests per second)
it is NOT WORTHWHILE to do something else than Tomcat standalone" that hold
true over the course of time.

Is the only requirement for a web project the # of users and traffic? I have
yet to come across such a project, and I've been at this for quite a long
time. What are the security requirements? Do you have any legacy cgi code
that tomcat can't handle well? Will you need to add any? Are you sure?

I'm not sure why people are so afraid to configure up apache. If you can get
tomcat configured you most certainly can get apache running. It's much
simpler (not that tomcat is hard). 9/10 times apache can be configured and
running on a box in about 5 minutes if you know what you're doing. I'm
currently installing tomcat/apache for a new intranet. The requirements
didn't start out necessitating apache (based on load and feature requests),
but I thought that I might as well just in case. There's a lot of static
images, why bother tomcat with those tasks. In the back of my mind I knew
that something would creep in. Sure enough, just today we decided to try to
authenticate users against the NT domain. I'm sure someone out there is
going to tell me how to do that from tomcat, but it will probably require a
bunch of new code and be a major hassle. Guess what, Apache has a module for
it (and I'm running on solaris). 

IMHO the software industry is full of stories about packages that died
trying to do too much. OO programming is all about modularizing code.
Doesn't that transfer to server software as well? Tomcat is a servlet
engine. Apache is a webserver. Sure tomcat can serve .gifs, and I could
write a novel in Outlook, but I'd rather use a word processor. If we push
the tomcat engine towards being a fully featured webserver isn't it
eventually going to bloat? Won't the task we asked it to do (handle
servlet/jsp requests) wind up suffering?

Anyway, that's just my opinion. 

Rick

Maybe for large volume servers, but for smaller servers (<10 requests
per second) it is NOT WORTHWHILE to do something else than Tomcat
standalone.

It is way easier to configure tomcat standalone than configure two
programs (tomcat and apache) plus the connector between tomcat and
apache. 

Also, if most of your pages are mostly dynamic, relaying everything
through apache will only slow down compared to direct access to the
servlet engine (tomcat).

Only for high volume static pages I would recommend (maybe) adding
apache.

Maybe the optimal would be to have two servers, one for dynamic stuff
and one for static stuff (the images etc). The dynamic pages refer to
the other server (apache) for larger static data. Thus you get the
best of two worlds: direct access to the servlets without
deviation/routing through apache, and faster(?) access to static data
through apache. B.t.w. SUN claims a java webserver/servlet engine
should be able to reach the same performance for static data as
dedicated webservers, but I haven't done any benchmarks.

I can only say that after using Apache+Tomcat for our (internal) app
for 1 users at about 20 requests per second, we ditched Apache and
went to Tomcat (version 4) standalone. This simplyfied configuration
and improved performance.

Quick answer: try!
Real answer, at least on Win2000: no. Unless you're actually using a 
different servlet.jar to the one you think you are.

How to fake a delete on Win2000: overwrite the jar with another one, this 
time empty.

RE: Is tomcat4 and jdk1.4beta2 combination okay?

[Beem Rickey L (Rick) CNIN]

In your registry, make sure HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java
Development Kit\1.4\JavaHome is set correctly, then reinstall Tomcat 4.0.

If I remember correctly, if you have Netscape 6 installed it sets this to
point to the JRE instead of the JDK.  This prevents the Tomcat 4.0 installer
from copying tools.jar to "Apache Tomcat 4.0\common\lib".

Yes jdk1.4beta2 does have a tools.jar and the JAVA_HOME var does point to 
it.  I am now thinking that something is wrong with the Tomcat config files,

because if I run catalina.bat directly I seem to be okay and the shipped 
samples seem to be okay, yet when I start Tomcat via Start->Programs->Apache

Tomcat 4.0->Start Tomcat then things don't work.  Weird eh?

RE: sun/tools/javac/Main not found while running Tomcat 4 as a service on Windows 2000

[Beem Rickey L (Rick) CNIN]

The Tomcat 4.0 install script, jakarta-tomcat-4.0-src\tomcat.nsi, references
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java Development Kit\1.4\JavaHome to
copy tools.jar to the "Apache Tomcat 4.0\common\lib" folder.  If JavaHome
doesn't point to the JDK but to the JRE as in my case tools.jar won't get
copied.  Either manually copy it there or correct the registry entry and
reinstall.

Here's the revelant secion of tomcat.nsi:

  ReadRegStr $2 HKLM "SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java Development Kit\$1" "JavaHome"

  CopyFiles "$2\lib\tools.jar" "$INSTDIR\common\lib" 4500

How did you decompress and unpack the archive? I'm running Tomcat
successfully, and found that if I used StuffIt Expander to untar the
archive, then files with names longer than the HFS filename limit had their
names truncated, and that kept some of the examples from running.

However, using tar from the command line works great.

sun/tools/javac/Main not found while running Tomcat 4 as a service on Windows 2000

[Beem Rickey L (Rick) CNIN]

I'm having the following problem only on Windows 2000 with Sun's JDK 1.4.
It 
works with Windows NT 4.0 and Sun's JDK 1.3.1.

My JAVA_HOME and CATALINA_HOME environment variables are properly set.

While running Tomcat 4 as a service on Windows 2000 I get the following
error 
when accessing any JSP page that isn't already compiled:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: sun/tools/javac/Main

I believe sun.tools.javac.Main is called while the JSP page is compiled, and
is 
containted in C:\jdk1.4\lib\tools.jar.

For testing, delete all the files and folders in the "Apache Tomcat
4.0\work" 
directory to force a recompile of the JSP pages.

When I run Tomcat 4 from the command line with startup.bat it tells me that 
C:\jdk1.4\lib\tools.jar is included in the CLASSPATH and JSP pages compile
and 
work as expected.  If I start Tomcat 4 as a service it doesn't seem to be
using 
the same CLASSPATH or isn't finding C:\jdk1.4\lib\tools.jar.

Using a custom action as input to another tag's attribute?

[Rick Mann]

I wrote a nifty set of custom actions (under the prefix "lz" below) that
lets me write JSP code like this:

<% int parentCatID = 1 %>



">




Now, this works, except for the tag  passed as the value
to the "value" attribute of . Is it not possible to do this? I
can have a Java expression like <%= foo.doSomething() %> in there, but I was
saddened to see that putting a JSP tag in there does not seem to work.

I've tested the tag outside of the  tag, and it works as
expected.

The  tag creates a URL of the form:

"catalog.jsp?categoryID=XX"

where "XX" is the value supposedly returned by .

Is this not possible, or do I need to change something?

TIA,

Is there a way to override where Catalina looks for the conf andwebapps directories?

[Rick Mann]

If I could set a command-line options or (better yet) an environment
variable to specify the location of the conf and webapp directories, it
would make upgrading to newer versions of Tomcat much easier.

That way, I could have all of my webapps and my configuration files in one
place, and I could add new versions of tomcat without worrying about
modifying a web app or conf file.

Is there a good way to do this? Thanks,

Error 500 in Tomcat Servlet initialization under jk_nt_service

[Rick Hodgson]

I've encountered an error which I've not seen discussed in any thread.

I get a null pointer exception when I attempt to execute my servlet via
Tomcat running under the jk_nt_service.exe module.

If I stop the "Jakarta" service and run "Tomcat" as a forground process,

my servlet works as expected.

Note, I get the exact same error if I run "Tomcat" via the "JavaService"

module mentioned in the TC3.2.3 documentation.

Also, my servlet is indirectly invoked via a "Do It" web page. This "Do
It" page is being correctly processed by "Tomcat as NT service".

Environment:
jdk1.3.1
j2sdkee1.2.1
IIS 5.5/sp1
Tomcat3.2.3 (dated 07/17/2001)
Win2K/sp2

Installed, configured and tested Tomcat3.2.3 with supplied "/examples".

Installed, configured and tested Tomcat3.2.3 "jk_nt_service.exe" with
supplied "/examples".

Deployed and configured my "ebiz" servlet in "webapps/ebiz".

Any attempt to invoke the servlet "Rwh_Ebiz_Svlt" fails with the
following:

-

Also, we have "tracing" in our servlet code. The tracing never starts.
I.E. The ClassLoader invoked by Jakarta fails before our Servlet class
initialization.

Anyone else encounter this problem? Anyone have a solution?

How to complete the link between InitialContext() and?

[Rick Mann]

I've read through Ch.5 of the J2EE 1.3 spec, looked at the Servlet 2.3 spec,
and poked around in the Tomcat docs. I'm not finding an answer to this
question:

How and where do I specify the signon information necessary to create a
proper DataSource object so that I can connect to my DB?

I have a Tomcat 4.0b7 running along with MySQL. I have/will created JDBC
2.0-derived classes to provide me with a DataSource for the MySQL db. I
understand how to specify a  in the web.xml file and I know
how to call InitialContext.lookup() to get a reference to the DataSource.

According to the J2EE 1.3 spec (J2EE.5.4.2, last paragraph), how and where
the specifics of creating a DataSource is up to the "container and resource
manager". Is there documentation on how I specify this in Catalina?

TIA,

Okay. I get that. How does one access a resource, then, whether it's a file
in a directory or a file in a WAR file? For example, we have properties
files that specify certain things for our web app. Currently, I provide a
full path, from root, to this file as an init param to a servlet that gets
loaded at context startup.

I'd like to be able to refer to this file relative to the web app's
directory (or within the web app's) .WAR file. Can you tell me how I'd go
about doing this, or what concepts to search for in the documentation to
answer this question?

As always, thanks for your help,

How to determine current search path?

[Rick Mann]

For debugging purposes, is there a way to determine what class directories
and jar files will be searched, and in what order, for a given context? I'm
happy to insert code into a servlet or JSP to dump this information, but I

variable settings, class loader settings, etc.

Is this possible? Is there a Java class that contains this information to
which I can make this query?

Re: configuring tomcat with Win 2000

[Rick Hodgson]

There's no difference between the two W** systems.

I used the WNT Tomcat3.2.3 install instructions with the IIS5.0 "howto"
instructions on a W2K/sp2 system with only minor problems.

The main problems are the IIS5.0 "howto" requires a number of changes to
.\conf and the W2K registry. If you don't get things exactly correct, you
may not have a working system.

If you are planning to run TC3.2.3 with Apache on W2k, you'll have an easier
install.

Luck,

Load balancing tomcat and webapp directory location

[Rick Anderson]

We're using tomcat 3.2.3 at the moment and are attempting to configure
tomcat so that it can be load balanced behind an apache web server.

Where should the webapps directory be located? Does it need to copied onto
each machine running tomcat or can it be located on the apache server?

I haven't found docs on this yet. If some one could point me in the right
direction I'd appreciate it.

Thanks,

TC3.2.3, W2K Professional and IIS5.0

[Rick Hodgson]

I'm having a slightly different problem with TC3.2.3 and IIS5.0.

I do have "isapi_redirect.dll" being initialized by IIS.

Also, IIS, is invoking "isapi_redirect.dll" for an incoming URL request.

The "isapi_redirect.dll" does parse the URL, determine that
"/examples/jsp/index" is a "servlet" URL, determine that "worker"
"ajp12" should handle the request.

However, "isapi_redirect.dll" stops before communicating with the
"worker" "ajp12" and returning "Not Found" to IIS (I'm assuming some
negative response because IIS responds with 404). Note, I'm using the
"http://localhost/examples/jsp/index.html"; URL as recommended by the
TC3.2.3 install notes for IIS. This is a valid directory(s)/file under
the "webapps" directory.

Combinations of software which I've used:
 A.
TC3.2.3
W2K/sp2 Professional
IIS5.0 that comes with W2K Professional
JDK1.2.2
JDK1.3.1
out of process "tomcat" worker
in process "tomcat" worker
 B.
TC3.2.2
W2K/sp2 Professional
IIS5.0 that comes with W2K Professional
JDK1.3.1
out of process "tomcat" worker

The "iis_redirect.reg-auto" does show that my registry entries are
correct.

Under IIS, the "jakarta" filter does have the "up green arrow". Also,
the "isapi.log" is being generated whenever I start IIS (I'm using
log_level=debug).

I have the "connector" for "/examples" set with "debug=10" in order to
see any "connect" activity. There has never been any "connect" activity.
I have verified that "ajp12", and nobody else, is using ports 8080 and
8007.

The last six lines from "logs/isapi.log" are always the same when
"isapi_redirect.dll" is invoked (except for "avp12" (out of process) and
"jni" (in process)).

 Begin log snippet

[jk_isapi_plugin.c (408)]: HttpFilterProc started

Re: Nasty OutofMemory problem - possible reason: Cookie name path is a reserved token Exception?

[Rick]

do you have a simple application or does it have complex components like rmi
server or pooling.  Look for data structures like pooling that have refrences
that never go away,  It may be something is allocating objects to a thread that
never dies it may help if you set stuff you are not using to null.  Tell us more
about what your application is doing, how moany seperate components does it
utilize and if you run those alone on a server does it still throw the
exception.

hey guys,

Ive installed catalina and deployed a web app which requires basic
authentication.
With catalina in standalone mode(using the MemoryRealm), the login pops up
and works as expected.
However, with apache 1.3x and the mod_webapp built from the
jakarta-tomcat-4.0-b5-src, the same web app produces
a login popup but authentication fails. Has anyone tried basic
authentication with apache and catalina?
im hoping its just a silly configuration issue but im at wits end and would
appreciate any help.
thanx, rick

wassup wid dat cat?

Help me on Active X and tomcat.

[RODGERS,RICK (HP-Cupertino,ex3)]

I have an application using IE explorer 4.X as an Active X control that uses
a window provided to it by the Active X container application.

The problem is that the browser inside the container window can not seem to
connect 
to the Webserver (tomcat). I see no error, its just that I can not
display files trough a URL such
as"http://localhost:8080/examples/jsp/filename";

If anyone has any idea what the problem is it would sure BE APRECIATED!

Thanks for your info. But please tell me what makes an "active internet

Your problem has nothing to do with Tomcat, or Apache, or any other server
on 
god's green earth... 

The problem isn't a problem, it's just IE checking for an active internet 
connection and not finding one. Just click "try again" and it'll find the 
server. There is, to my knowledge, no way around it. 

Netscape, BTW, does not behave in this fashion. It's just a MonopolySoft, 
err, Microsoft quirk.

Why does Internet Explorer think it is offline?

[RODGERS,RICK (HP-Cupertino,ex3)]

I am using tomcat with IE and am having problems with it. 
Every time I start IE and try and access a Java Server Page or
servlet through "lolcalhost:8080/examples/jsp" the browser first complains 
that the system is not connected to a network. I then click on
"try again" and the browser then seems to find the JSPand display it.
Is there a special setting for tomcat if the system is connected to a
hub?

Any thoughts?

Hi,

I'm the person who started this thread (accidentally, if you all

people are still posting.

I suggest we move this discussion to the NNTP newsgroup 
"talk.politics.china" that appears to be heavily used, and appropriate to 
this discussion.

Again, my very sincere apologies for bothering this list, and also with the 
inflammatory nature of my original message. One should always re-read a 
potentially inflammatory message before sending, something I did not do in 
this case.

To the Tomcat list moderator - is it possible to purge the archives of this

Boycott China - please read - your life may depend on it

[Rick Horowitz]

Hello Everyone,

The following speech, reprinted from www.newsmax.com, was made this Tuesday 
night by U.S. Congressman Dana Rohrabacher of California. I urge you all to 
read every word of this speech. I have been aware of much of the budding 
catastrophe we face regarding China, yet have not seen the issues 
articulated with anything near the clarity that Mr. Rohrabacher does in 
this speech.

My wife and I began boycotting Chinese-made goods about a year ago in 
recognition of the reasons outlined here. I urge every one of you to 
forward this message to everyone in your email list, and begin boycotting 
Chinese goods immediately.

My own brief summary of the issues:

1. Our extreme trade deficit vs. China (nearly $100B per year now) has been 
used for a massive military buildup, with the U.S. as the ultimate target.
2. Russia is selling their most advanced arms to China, capable of 
destroying our aircraft carriers, including a supersonic torpedo technology 
that is far beyond anything that we have and for which we have no defense.
3. Our leading defense contractors, including Loral, Boeing, Hughes, 
Motorola, and others have sold advanced military technology to China over 
the past few years, including technology that now enables Chinese 
nuclear-armed intercontinental ballistic missiles to accurately hit 
American cities, something they were not able to do prior to this transfer 
of technology.
4. The majority of the "partner" companies of U.S. ventures in China are in 
fact owned and operated by the PLA (the People's Liberation Army - the 
Chinese army). These are not commercial interests.
5. The U.S. government (read you and I) have been providing tax breaks to 
American companies to close up factories in the U.S. and reopen them in 
China. These factories transfer advanced technology in many cases, put 
Americans out of work, and provide cash to the Chinese to further their 
military expansion.

I hope these points and the following reprinted speech make you think long 
and hard about our position regarding China, and that you:

1. Start boycotting Chinese-made goods immediately
2. Send this message to everyone on your email list. Please don't be 
embarrassed to take a stand on this. I assure you, it is not my imagination 
that China poses a significant threat to our safety and future, and we are 
giving them the money, technology, and weaponry to carry out their many 
threats already made against our country.

Here's one informational link...I'm sure you can find may others yourself.

PLEASE read Mr. Rohrabacher's speech, below:

http://abcnews.go.com/sections/world/DailyNews/chinamissiles_990409.html
includes, "A Chinese official hinted at launching a nuclear weapon
at Los Angeles in 1996, when U.S. warships confronted
China over missile firings near Taiwan."

Make no mistake about it. The Chinese government is a dictatorship, and is 
very dangerous.

Sincerely,

Rick Horowitz

Rohrabacher Slams U.S. Aid to China

Rep. Dana Rohrabacher
Thursday, April 26, 2001

Editor's note: This is the text of a speech on the House floor by
U.S. Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, R-Calif., Tuesday night.

Mr. Speaker, one month ago, the Communist regime that controls
the mainland of China attacked an American surveillance aircraft
while it was in international waters. After being knocked out of the
sky, 24 American military personnel, the crew of the surveillance
craft, were held hostage for nearly 2 weeks. The Communist
Chinese blamed us and would not return the crew until the United
States was humiliated before the world.

Wake up, America. What is going on here? Large financial interests
in our country whose only goal is exploiting the cheap, near-slave
labor of China have been leading our country down the path to
catastrophe. How much more proof do we need that the so-called
engagement theory is a total failure?

Our massive investment in China, pushed and promoted by
American billionaires and multinational corporations, has created
not a more peaceful, democratic China, but an aggressive
nuclear-armed bully that now threatens the world with its hostile acts
and proliferation. Do the Communist Chinese have to murder
American personnel or attack the United States or our allies with
their missiles before those who blithesomely pontificate about the
civilizing benefits of building the Chinese economy will admit that
China for a decade has been going in the opposite direction than
predicted by the so-called ``free traders.''

'We Have Made a Monstrous Mistake'

We have made a monstrous mistake, and if we do not face reality
and change our fundamental policies, instead of peace, there will be
conflict. Instead of democratic reform, we will see a further
retrenchment of a regime that is run by gangsters and thugs, the
world's worst human rights abusers.

Let us go back to basics. The mainland of China is controlled by a
rigid, Stalinistic Comm

Hi,

At compile-time you only have to use --enable-module=so

When Apache is compiled and installed you enable mod_jk with an appropiate
LoadModule entry in httpd.conf.

At least that worked fine for me :)

Re: New to user-mailing-list

[Rick]

well I used a different Apache-how-to (which was made with php in mind)
after reading the devshed manual I came to the conclusion I needed to
re-install Red Hat (apache configuration was wrong)

and now reinstall like this

cd /tmp/apache1.3.19
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache --enable-module=so <- I didn't do
this, that's why I couldnt use LoadModule
cd /tmp/php4.0.4
./configure --with-mysql --with-apache=../apache1.3.19 --enable-track-vars

Hi,

you need do use mod_jk as an DSO, so mod_so has to be compiled into Apache.
Linking mod_jk statically to Apache isn't trivial nor recommended.

Hi people,

I'm new to the Tomcat-user-list,
main reason for this was ofcourse an annoying problem with installing Tomcat
the way I want.
I was hoping somebody reading this mail could help me.

My situation is as followes:

I want a JSP Server on Linux with Apache for better stability
I have:

- Red Hat 7.0 (installed without X-Windows)
- MySQL 3.23.35 (RPM)
- Apache 1.3.19 + Php-4.0.4pl1 ( Installed according to docs on
http://www.php.net )
- JDK 1.3 (RPM) fixed the "libstc++-glibc6 versionproblem"
- Tomcat 3.2.1 (Binary dist)


Tomcat works fine
Apache works fine
PHP works fine
MySQL works fine

BUT ... I want to use mod_jk.so for Tomcat/Apache connection
this is where it goes wrong. As far as I understand self-compiling mod_jk.so
is not necissary
(even if I wanted to ... Apache doesnt support DSO here)

I did this:

- move mod_jk.so to: /apache/libexec/
- Start Tomcat
- edit httpd.conf and add the line: Include
"/usr/local/jakarta-tomcat/conf.mod_jk.conf-auto"
- Start Apache

apache wouldn't start..
this is my Consoledump.

core dumps.

Any one else seen this?

I need help!!

Beans with Tomcat 3.2.1

[Rick Palmer]

Please help,

Have installed Tomcat 3.2.1 successfully on W2K and all examples
work fine.  JSPs and servlets that we create also are hunky
dory.

The problem - beans do not work for me.

I reference the bean in the JSP in the usual way (have tried
it with and without the import):

<%@ page import =
"icegroup.beans.MyBean" %>




The error that results when I run the JSP is:
   org.apache.jasper.JasperException:  Attempted a bean
operation on a null object.


I have the bean class in my WEB-INF\classes directory (have also
  tried it in WEB-INF\classes\icegroup\beans).  Have also
tried
  setting the CLASSPATH directly to the class folder in the
Tomcat
  startup script.  ( The bean code is  shown below for
completeness. )

I have been digging into docs and forums for a couple of days
on this one so your ideas and help are greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Re: Protecting mysql access (was: re: mySQL again)

[Rick Herrick]

On our server, we basically grant NO remote access privileges to ANY users, 
including root.  This means that any access to the database has to be done 
from the localhost.  So instead of doing the two normal grants you might 
do, like this:

GRANT SELECT,INSERT,UPDATE ON *.* TO soandso@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 
'password';
GRANT SELECT,INSERT,UPDATE ON *.* TO soandso@"%" IDENTIFIED BY 'password';

The first allows access from the localhost.  The second allows remote 
access.  Just don't do the second.  Then someone has to hack in and get 
local access to the database somehow and if they can do that, then you've 
got other security problems besides MySql!

Calling within and across webapp contexts

[Rick Herrick]

I asked the question earlier and never received a response, so I'll try again!

We have a JSP app that's currently running in JRun 2.3.3 (JSP 1.0 
compliant).  When we refer to different directories within the app, we 
always preface with the "context" name, or really the top-level virtual 
directory.  So if you want a common file, you do this:



The problem is that, testing under Tomcat, this doesn't work.  It tries to 
prepend the context name onto the path, so that this becomes 
/CpsAdmin/CpsAdmin/Common/loginForm.jsp.

My questions are:

* Is this part of the JSP 1.1 spec?  It flies in the face of conventional 
usage of path names across the board, i.e. anything that starts with '/' 
means you go to the top-level of the server hierarchy.  What's the rationale?

* Is there anyway to change this and make Tomcat do the "right" thing, i.e. 
see '/' as the server root?

* Does this also mean that you can't call across contexts?  That is, we 
produce our tools as separate items, since customers may install some 
pieces and not others.  But if two tools are installed, they can work 
together and then would need to call across contexts.  I can think of no 
good reason why this shouldn't be permitted, but based on this behavior, it 
does look as if it would.

Thanks in advance for any feedback!  Getting this worked out will help save 
me a TON of time porting over our apps!
