Is Tomcat part of this product?
*Hello Everyone, Pardon my ignorance, its been a while since, I've been on this list. I have a question and I'm not trying to start a flame war or anything like that I really am just interested in the differences. I would like to know what the differences are between Tomcat 5.x and Sun Java System Application Server Platform Edition 8 Update 1. I know that the Sun product allows EJBs and such. I guess what I'm after is besides that, is there any real value to using Tomcat over it or vice-versa? Either technically or legally (licensing)? Its my understanding that part of the Sun product comes with a version of Tomcat, is it version 5.x? Can I get the same functionality from Tomcat that I can from the Sun product? Is Tomcat better? I know I'm asking a lot of questions about this, but I want to setup an Apache 2, PHP and Java website with MySQL. Any insight that can be provided would be much appreciated. Thanks, John * - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: Servlet web hosting?
Hi Lloyd, Webhosting may be a bit off topic for this list, but I would be glad to help you out. I just moved from an M$ centric host as well. What I've done may be a little different than what you want. First off I will say that my new webhost does not support servlets at this time. However, they do support PHP. I use PHP to redirect to my Linux server at my home that is setup with Apache, Tomcat and mySQL. That way I don't have to worry about E-mail setups and such and I can just focus on getting my server setup and coding. :-) I use... http://www.pronicsolutions.com I have the $10.95 a month plan and I get a LOT more than I really use. If you would like to compare and contrast different webhosting companies, I recomend checking out the following site. http://www.hostsearch.com I like the control panel that ProNicSolutions gives you to use, very nice. Hope this helps. Sorry, for the kinda, sorta off topic reply everyone.

My current web hosting provider is very MS-centric, so I'm looking for a new one that supports servlets. Does anyone on this list use such a provider with whom they are satisfied? wrt servlet hosting, I'm primarily interested in having the latest and greatest software available (like the latest beta of Tomcat, e.g.) than I am with rock-solid stability. Also, domain hosting, multiple mail accounts (IMAP would be nice), and the ability to create users with file permissions as well. Thanks very much for your recommendations. I know there are a lot of web hosting service guides out there, but it's hard to get a true feel of how a service performs without speaking with actual users.
Re: Problems with a simple JSP and mySQL connect
Hello everyone,
Thanks for your help on this. My problem did indeed turn out to be MySQL
related. After doing some more digging on Dejanews I found the following
link.
http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=ensafe=offth=976ec1cd8689bfcb,8seekm=3a5df3ac%241%40newsgate.hknet.com#p
I followed these directions exactly replacing my own userid and password
there and POOF! Everything worked.
Thanks to the author of this solution! :-)
Thanks

This what I did after researching here and in mysql web site:
1. Shutdown your mysql server and kill mysql process alive.
2. Start the server with command: ./bin/safe_mysqld --skip-grant-tables
3. start mysql with command: ./bin/mysql --user root mysql
4. Once inside SQL: Issue the following commands ( replace with
appropriate user name and passwd etc. )
mysql INSERT INTO user
VALUES('localhost','monty',PASSWORD('some_pass'),
'Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y')
mysql INSERT INTO user VALUES('%','monty',PASSWORD('some_pass'),
'Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y')
mysql INSERT INTO user SET Host='localhost',User='admin',
Reload_priv='Y', Process_priv='Y';
mysql INSERT INTO user (Host,User,Password)
VALUES('localhost','dummy','');
mysql FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
5. quit from mysql and kill any mysql process alive
6. start the server with command: ./bin/safe_mysqld
Now you should be able to use user monty and passwd some_pass to connect
to the server.
Hope it helps.

So what *IS* available? Formerly Tomcat SUCKS
Hello Everyone, I was just going through the posts and have been following this thread. Despite Tomcat not meeting Nick's needs and the frustration he must have had, he does bring up a good question. What is out there that can handle Nick's problems? I am still new to the Tomcat scene so please be patient with me. I've seen commercial solutions mentioned such as Resin, JRun and a few others. What about IBM WebSphere? Is that not a similar product? How do the commercial products compare to Tomcat as far as feature set, stability, scalability and speed? The thread just got me thinking is all. Thanks in advance John Brosan On 27 Jun 2001 17:28:19 -0700, Nick Stoianov wrote: Hey Milt, I guess you are right.

And perhaps for a number of reasons, it's just not possible for you to spend a lot of time trying to figure out how to get Tomcat to do what you want, you want it to work the way you want out of the box, or have someone else figure it out for you. So a heavy duty commercial product with support may be a better choice for you. But it's going to cost you (whereas Tomcat is free). But that's a choice you're making as to how best to allocate your resources (and it may perfectly well be a legitimate choice). Again, it doesn't mean Tomcat sucks, it's just not what you need (and I've probably heard complaints about most of the other products out there, including commercial ones).

RE: Apache won't start with Tomcat
I had a similar problem with my Tomcat. My problem turned out to be that I am running Mandrake 8.0 and its using a version of Apache called Advanced Extranet Server http://www.advx.com . The mod_jk.so file for me had to be place in a different directory. I believe it was in /usr/lib/apache-extramodules. That my be a little off, but I know that the dir name is apache-extramodules. After placing mod_jk in the directory and making the link in httpd.conf to the Tomcat server, I had to hand modify the auto generated conf file. I stopped both Apache and Tomcat. Started Tomcat first and made sure it used my modified file and then started Apache. Everything seems to work ok. I did it this way simply cause I'm a 'noob and don't know any better. ;) If anyone has any suggestions on how to make Tomcat auto-generate a conf file that points to the REAL location of my mod_jk I'd love to hear from you. Also, if someone can tell me how to get Tomcat to start prior to Apache I'd like to know that as well. I'm not very familiar with all of the startup scripts so any help there is much appreciated.

Problems with Tomcat behind a firewall
Hello everyone, I've currently got Mandrake 8.0, Apache 1.3.19, and Tomcat 3.2.2 setup on a server at my home. I've been able to get Apache w/mod_jk and Tomcat setup. Everything seems to be working fine behind the Linksys router. All examples, both JSP and Servlet work flawlessly behing the firewall. However when I try http://howler.hn.org/examples from a machine outside my home the page with the examples never displays. It times out. I have port 80 and 21 forwarded to the Linux server. Is there something in a config file I missed? Is there a port that needs to be opened on the routre? Please help. Thank you in advance John Brosan

Keng, Thanks for the info.

RE: Problems with Tomcat behind a firewall
Thanks again Keng for the lead. I'm not real familiar with Apache, but I will do some digging and who knows, maybe I'll learn something! ;) -Original Message- From: Keng Wong [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, June 21, 2001 3:55 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Problems with Tomcat behind a firewall It's more of a configuration rather than a 'problem'. You may want to try the RewriteRule directive within apache. -keng wong -Original Message- From: Howler D.

Missed a config statement???
Hello everyone, I am running Apache 1.3.19 and Tomcat 3.2.2 on Mandrake 8.0 Tomcat is installed and *appears* to be functioning fine. All examples work fine from the server as well as other machines on the network. However, when someone from the Internet attempts to hit http://howler.hn.org/examples it seems to time out. I have mod_jk installed as well. I must have missed a config option somewhere. Any ideas? Please help. Thank you John Brosan
Trouble execute jsp on Tomcat 3.2.2
Hello Everyone, I've got Tomcat 3.2.2 setup on Mandrake 8.0 running Apache 1.3.19. I've installed mod_jk. It seems that I can run servlets on Tomcat in standalone and via Apache, but I can't seem to run the JSP examples from either. I am getting the following error: Not found (404) Original request: /examples/jsp/num/numguess.jsp Not foun request: /examples/jsp/num/numguess.jsp Any ideas? Again the servlets seem to work just fine. Thanks John Brosan
Tomcat 3.2.2 Install problems
Hello Everyone, Before I begin, I would just like to say that I am a newbie when it comes to the Apache webserver, Tomcat, Java, JSP and to some respects Linux. I am trying to get a good clean grasp as to what I have to have installed and working in order to use JSP and Servlets. I am running Mandrake 8.0, Apache-AdvancedExtranetServer/1.3.19 mod_ssl/2.8.2 OpenSSL/0.9.6 PHP/4.0.4pl1. I downloaded... J2SDK1.3.1 Tomcat 3.2.2 Java servlet (was in the same directory where I downloaded Tomcat from, I assumed I needed it as well.) JRE (Can't quite get it to run with Mozilla) It was my understanding that the JavaSDK needed to be installed as well. So I downloaded it and installed it. I set it up so that all users could execute Java. I modified my path in /etc/profile so all users have access. However, when I log in as root, the path to the Java directory is not there. What have I missed? Also, I have installed Tomcat 3.2.2 and when I try to start it, it fails because I try to start it as root and since the Java dir is not in the path it cannot start. How can I fix this? Is there a good HOW-TO out there that I somehow missed? Thanks in advance. John Brosan JSP programmer in Training.
