If the servlets are all part of the same Web application, you could set the flag as an attribute in the application context. All the other servlets in the same application could see it them. Any servlet in the application could also remove the attribute.

I'm not sure if it's something that should be fixed. What you're asking is for Tomcat to log the timestamps of any WAR files, and then unilaterally re-expand them if it notes a change.

I _don't_ understand what all is meant by all the authentication methods given (FORM vs BASIC).

Re: mm JDBC driver
I can't vouch for the Apache virtual hosts part, but to make it available for all your Tomcat applications, you can put the jar in the lib folder, along with servlet.jar. You may also need to add it to your classpath. You may get other offerings, but if not, there's a simple plug-and-play JDBC sample web application at http://husted.com/about/struts/ As configured, it will test a factory-default MySQL installation "out of the box" on your local workstation. If yours is not a default installation, you can revise the datasource element in the struts-config.xml in the usual way. This example uses the Jakarta Struts framework, but will test your JDBC connection nonetheless. *** REPLY SEPARATOR *** On 12/28/2000 at 3:27 AM Shailaja Someshwar wrote: Hello Where do I need to place the mm.jdbc driver for MySQL in tomcat directory so that its available system wide and all of the Apache virtual hosts.

Re: JSP vs Servlets...
On 12/20/2000 at 5:39 PM Rui Oliveira wrote: can someone tell me which one is best: JSP or [regular] Servlets? All JSPs are actually servlets, and the JSP file is really just another way to Java source. The container (or one of its helpers) compiles them into servlets as needed, and then executes that servlet. JSP is a Rapid Application Development tool for writing servlets that display page views. If you have used any JSPs in your Tomcat installation, you can check the (default) "work" directory for the java source and class files is being auto-generated for the JSPs. There are some performance drawbacks to JSPs, which may or may not make an actual difference in your applicaton. The first drawback is that containers always check the edit date of a JSP to see if it needs to be recompiled before it runs the associated servlet. Of course, this must be slower than running the servlet outright, but your users may never notice the difference. Once the design is stable, it is also possible to compile your JSPs into conventional servlets, if you need that extra boost. As mentioned elsewhere, there may also be ways you can performance-tune a servlet by hand that are not available in JSP. The major benefit is rapid development. JSPs can be a lot easier to write and maintain than an ordinary servlet. Frameworks that leverage JSPs in a Model View Controller architecture (like Jakara Struts) are also becoming available. This can make your applicaiton much easier to use by other developers, or in a team environment where different people handle different parts of the application. Of course, your application would probably still use ordinary servlets for various other tasks, even if it uses JSP to create most of the page views. -- Ted Husted, Husted dot Com, Fairport NY USA. -- Custom Software ~ Technical Services. -- Tel 716 425-0252; Fax 716 223-2506. -- http://www.husted.com/

So the FAQ-O-Matic is back, but the email confirmation seems to be broken.

Re: very basic web server hosting question
I want to expose my computer to the internet. Not for nothing, but if you need to ask that question here, it might be a very dangerous thing for you to do on your own. You really might want to park your application with a hosting ISP, like iMagineIS.com (TomCat and proud of it!).

Re: Why there are two apache servlets projects?
Is this a loaded political questions? {:-0}
It's really an obvious newbie question that isn't being directly
answered in the regular documentation. Though, I suppose that Tomcat is
the "official" reference implies a relationship with Sun. Perhaps
enough time has passed that the Tomcat User Guide could be updated to
say something like:
Isn't Tomcat just JServ?
This is a common misunderstanding. JServ is a Servlet API
2.0-compliant container that was created to be used with
Apache. Tomcat is a complete re-write and is a Servlet API 2.2 and
JSP 1.1-compliant container. Tomcat uses
some of the code written for JServ, especially JServ's Apache
server adapter, but this is where the similarities end.
** Tomcat is being developed within the Apache Jakarta initiative,
which has partnered with Sun to make Tomcat the official reference
implementation of Java Servlet 2.2 and JavaServer Pages 1.1
technologies. JServ is maintained within the Apache Java initiative, a
seperate and independant project. **
