Re: war file deployment problem
You are confusing Tomcat. If you are going to dynamically deploy your webapp, don't have the .war file sitting in $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps. Have it somewhere else. Everything in $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps is automatically deployed and, yes, it is expanded if you *don't* have a Context entry defined for that webapp. when you install like you are, there is already a webapp defined for the path you are specifying. Now you install another webapp under the same name. I don't know how Tomcat handles this situation, but it looks as if it hoses the webapp entry. Make sure to name your webapps uniquely and don't put any .war files or expanded directories that you plan on dynamically installing through the manager in Tomcat's default auto-deploy directory (webapps). Jake Quoting Dave Robbins [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hello All, kindof a newbie here so be gentle I wrote a little dummy app with Forte 4.0 that consists of a jsp page with a link that calls a servlet which does a database lookup and spews out some data. It works fine with the built in copy of Tomcat that comes with Forte. I build a war file and try to deploy it on another machine with Tomcat 4.0.4 on it. I put my file dummy.war in the $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/dummy dir and use this command from a browser http://localhost:8080/manager/install? path=/dummywar=jar:file:$CATALINA_HOME/webapps/dummy/dummy.war!/ now the command http://localhost:8080/manager/install tells me that my app is running, but when I try to access it with http://localhost/dummy or http://localhost/dummy/index.jsp it says the resource is not available. I kinda thought Tomcat could access the war file in it's bundled state but after reading the docs I got the impression the manager app was gonna expand it, is that true? In my case the file wasn't expanded. After some head scratching I figured I'd manually expand the war file in the $CATALINA_HOME/ROOT dir. After doing that and restarting Tomcat everything works fine with http://localhost/index.jsp. So, let me ask a few questions 1) What does the manager app do does it modify $CATALINA_HOME/conf/server.xml should it expand the war file 2)If I'm gonna deploy multiple apps, what's the typical dir structure $CATALINA_HOME/ROOT/app1, $CATALINA_HOME/ROOT/app2, etc could i deploy an app outside the Tomcat dir structure (ie /home/mydir) 3)Is this the correct flow of things Tomcat starts up and reads $CATALINA_HOME/conf/server.xml and now knows about the apps that are installed and what path they're mapped to. when a client tries to access an app, Tomcat goes and looks in the jar file and reads web.xml to discover what all is in the war file. Within the war file any static content goes in the WEB-INF dir, class files go in WEB- INF/classes and .jar files goe in WEB-INF/lib hep me, hep me Dave -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: retrieving HttpSession in Filter? ServletResponse.setContentLength()?
Quoting tek1 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: do you happen to have the link to the article? i followed sun's example filter using a CharResponseWrapper and my filter's not working... :| thanks again for helping. i appreciate it. I found it at: http://java.sun.com/products/servlet/Filters.html Not sure if it is the same article or not. Might be new code. See the link at the bottom of the page for the actual code download.

Re: nt4 service
After setting up the system variables mentioned in the text below, copy the following to your command line and hit enter. Install Catalina Service: %CATALINA_HOME%\bin\tomcat.exe -install Apache-Catalina %JAVA_HOME%\jre\bin\server\jvm.dll -Djava.class.path=%CATALINA_HOME%\bin\bootstrap.jar;%JAVA_HOME%\lib\tools.jar -Dcatalina.home=%CATALINA_HOME% %CATALINA_OPTS% -Xrs -start org.apache.catalina.startup.BootstrapService -params start -stop org.apache.catalina.startup.BootstrapService -params stop -out %CATALINA_HOME%\logs\stdout.log -err %CATALINA_HOME%\logs\stderr.log Uninstall Catalina Service: %CATALINA_HOME%\bin\tomcat.exe -uninstall Apache-Catalina BTW, I'd really recommend that you upgrade to Tomcat-4.0.4 for the latest stable version of Tomcat. Lots of bugs were fixed between 4.0.1 and 4.0.4. Also, there are the new 4.1.x releases which have lots of cool new stuff. 4.0.1 is pretty ancient now and I wouldn't use it unless you are tied to it for some reason. Jake Quoting Carlos Silva [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Please, tell me as configuration tomcat4.01 as NT4 service. I would like execute my servlet / jsp pages on port 80.

RE: Class loader problem with Xalan under 4.0.2 and 4.0.3
That isn't the issue here. Beginning with Tomcat-4.0.2, Tomcat is enforcing Sun's classloading spec more stringently and not allowing XML/DOM libraries to be loaded from a child classloader. In plain english, this means you cannot include XML/DOM libraries in WEB-INF/lib. They must exist in a parent classloader such as $TOMCAT_HOME/lib (or $TOMCAT_HOME/shared/lib in 4.1.x) or $TOMCAT_HOME/common/lib (or $TOMCAT_HOME/common/endorsed when using j2sdk1.4.x in Tomcat-4.1.x). The reason why you get the ClassCastException is that although Tomcat is attempting to enforce the spec, it doesn't do it very cleanly. This was fixed for the 4.0.4 release as well as the latest releases of 4.1.x. Upgrade to 4.0.4 or 4.1.7 and move your XML/DOM libraries to the above mentioned directories and all will be well. Jake Quoting Andrew Conrad [EMAIL PROTECTED]: This isn't answering your question as you posed it, but aren't xml-api.jar and XMLParserAPI.jar from different versions of Xerces? Xalan 2.4.D1 comes with Xerces 2.0.1 (xercesImpl.jar and xml-api.jar). To use Xerces 2.0.2, aren't you suppose to delete those files and replace them with those from the Xerces distribution (xercesImpl.jar and XMLParserAPI.jar)? Maybe you are having a class loading issue because you are mixing your versions.

Tomcatxalan lib in /WEB-INF/lib/ ---- 3.3.1 OK 4.0.2 NOT OK 4.0.3 NOT OK 4.0.4 OK The only way to make 4.0.2 and 4.0.3 aware of xalan libs is to have the xalan jar files in Bootstrap classes of my JVM which is in /usr/local/jdk1.3.1_02/jre/lib/ext. But having the libs in this directory can effect other applications within the same container. How do I make my Tomcat 4.0.2 and 4.0.3 use the xalan lib in my /WEB-INF/lib/ directory? Is this a Tomcat config problem or a Xalan config problem?
