Pls Help~ apache tomcat symbolic link

[wing]

Hi all,

I'm using apache tomcat4.1, in webapps i made a symbolic link for my directory 
"content", and I've modified the context configuration with below:



files inside the "content" can be accessed if i use port 8080, but if i use apache 
(port 80) to access, tomcat always return a "HTTP Status 404" error. 

http://localhost/course/content/upload/Notes/Part-1-2003.pdf (not work!)

http://localhost:8080/course/content/upload/Notes/Part-1-2003.pdf (work)

Any suggestion is welcome, thanks!

Thank you so much!!! It works now.  This problem has bugging me for a very

Thanks a lot again ;-).

Actually, I've already got that in place.  Here's what I have in the

but TomCat still gives me the old page.  Maybe someone on the list can tell
me why.

Anyway, thanks all the same.

Thanks for that.  But my problem turns out that TomCat gives the older
version of my webapp.  Actually, I replaced a new jsp file in my webapp with
exactly the same name as the old jsp file.  However, TomCat4.0 still gives
me the older version.  This is really annoying, why TomCat does something
like that?  I thought IE was the culprit but it's not. I'd really appreciate
it, if someone can help me with this.

Clear Cache In IE5

[Yiu Wing]

Hello all,

This is a little bit off topic. Can you tell me how can I clear the cache in
IE so that I can see the change I've in made in my webapp after invoking
TomCat4.0 again?  Thanks in advance.

Update changes

[Yiu Wing]

How can I update the change that I've made to my webapp's directory in
TomCat 4.0? Here's the situation, I deleted an unwanted directory in my
webapp's directory, but it's still being showed after I restarted TomCat and
the browser - well, I actually rebooted the machine.  I've set reloadable to
be true for my webapp in the file server.xml, although it's irrelevant
because that's for reloading the classes.  In fact, I don't have any class
files in either WEB-INF\classes or WEB-INF\lib, because my app is an applet.
Therefore, I'm getting the feeling that the reloadable attribute won't help
me to reload the change I've made to the applet.  So in short, is there a
command or setting I can ask TomCat to reload everything regardless what.

Re: Location of jdbc driver

[Yiu Wing]

Hi ya,

Let's share this with the others ;-), and I think this should be mentioned
in the docs.

Anyway, here how I do it, I place the *driver directory tree* in the
directory as the other class files.  For example, my servlet application is
called, myApplet, and I put all the class files for this app in myClasses,
so the directory tree will look like this,

myApplet-->myApplet.jsp
  |
  >myClasses
   |
   -->(class files for the applet)
  |
   -->org(this is for the MySQL driver)
 |
 >gjt
   |
   >mm
[...]

See the deep directory tree for the driver, but all you need to do is unjar
it.  If you use WinZip, right click on the driver file and unzip (unjar) it.
I hope you will find this useful.

My applet uses the JDBC directly, so I've unjarred the driver and everything
works fine now.  Thanks for clearing things up for me.

I'm just wondering the JDBC driver is working on the client side, cos' if I
place the driver jar file in WEB-INF/lib directory then it can't be found.
I've also tried the common/lib directory, as the other helpful folk
suggested, and it can't be found there, either.  I've actually embedded my
database connection in the applet, so it does look like I should place the
driver on a separate directory.

Thanks very much for your reply and reference email. Yeah, I have to create
an extra directory to store all my class files, and I also have to unzipped
the JDBC driver in order to get my jsp applet running. But from one of the
Tomcat's docs, which is tomcat-docs\appdev\deployment.html, in its mid page
says,

/WEB-INF/lib/ - This directory contains JAR files that contain Java class
files (and associated resources) required for your application, such as
third party class libraries or JDBC drivers.

I've copied my JDBC driver there, but it just won't work.  My citation is
just the opposite of your reference email, which says that JAR files are
static content and can't be place under /WEB-INF.  Since my applet is
running now, and so think the docs could be wrong or haven't covered this
topic completely. I hope someone could look this up.

Anyway, thanks very much for your email again.  You have saved me!

[repost] loading class files

[Yiu Wing]

Sorry guys this is a repost. But after doing numerous google search and
wading through the docs, I still can't solve my problem with regard to
loading applet classes. I sincerely hope some of you can help me this time,
I desperately need to get this working.  The same message is as follow.

Hello All,

I'm writing an applet that uses JDBC to connect to MySQL server , and the
applet is embedded in a jsp.  I'm new to this, so I went on and read the
docs that come with Tomcat.  I'm also using CVS and ant for the development.
The source code layout of my project is as suggested in the docs, which is

project name
  |- docs
  |- src
  |- web
|-->WEB-INF

In the project/web/WEB-INF directory, do I have to create a classes and lib
subdirectories?  The reason I ask this is because the class loader, from the
Tomcat or web browser, can't find the class files.  But they're clearly in
the web directory, whose structure is as,

project
  | login.jsp (that's the jsp file that embeds the applet)
  | WEB-INF
|--- classes (this directory has all the
needed class files)
|--- lib (where the MySQL driver is
stored)

The Tomcat docs says the classes and lib dir "are made visible to other
classes within your particular web application", but why my class files
can't be loaded there?  If I move all the class files to the top of the web
directory, and change "code="MyClass.class""  to "code="MyClass"" in the jsp
file, then everything seems to working OK. Oh, yeah, almost forgot, I also
need to copy the whole directory tree for the driver to the web directory as
well.  Setting the classpath for the driver doesn't work.  I don't want to
copy the class files to the top of the web directory every time, can those
file be loaded in the classes and lib directories.  Sorry about this rather
long message, but I'm getting very frustrated and hopping some of you can
help me with this.

Thanks for your help in advance.

P.S. I'm using Tomcat4.0 on Win2000
