Hm, I do not understand why I should restart Tomcat.
The manager webapp should do the trick according to the
documentation. Why does this not work, or does it?

   http://localhost:8080/manager/reload?path=/PAQ

I hope to hear from somebody since I have this same solution.

Thanks,

Hi folks,

I'm new to Tomcat, but not as new to J2EE. I have a jsp, and I made a change
to a class that's being loaded into it as a bean, but I can't get the page
to use the new class and not the old one.

My question, thus, is: when I make changes to a class, how do I get Tomcat
to reload the class?

Restarting Tomcat doesn't seem to do the trick.

Searching the web, I found a doc that made mention that "touching" the
web.xml file would force the reloading of the class. I tried that and it
didn't work.

I also read somewhere that going to the application (where the JSPs are) and
typing ANT would force the recompile of everything. Still, the old class is
being used.

I'm storing the class in %catalina_home%/classes/PSQ/. I'm loading it into
the jsp by means of the following line of code:



I've made sure there are no other versions of PSQ.class in any other places
it might be used, for example, the WEB-INF/classes directory.

Thanks for whatever advice you can give, and I apologize if this question
has been asked many times before.

RE: [beginner question] reloading classes

2003-01-21 Thread Tolles, James 
Hey, no problem - ok to save yourself a bit of time!

Actually, I think my suggestion is incomplete. If tomcat is configured correctly, it 
will auto detect when a new servlet has been loaded, and then re-load the web app, 
grabbing the new servlet. I seems to me it tries to serialized the session object and 
re-start - but for us this usually doesn't succeed, so jsps get reloaded ok on update, 
servlets require a restart of the specific webapp.

nothing in here is nothing in TOMCAT_HOME/common/classes/ so I would imagine

If you're stopping and starting tomcat and seeing that the change has not
been picked up, then you're experiencing a classloader issue where that
class is being picked up in a higher classloader before your version of that
class is.

For instance:
TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/your_app/WEB-INF/classes/com/example/MyClass.class
TOMCAT_HOME/common/classes/com/example/MyClass.class

The 2nd one would be loaded prior to first because it will be loaded in a
higher classloader.

As for the touching of the web.xml file to reload the class.  This only
works for classes loaded in the web application's classloader, and not for
classes loaded within tomcat's internal classloader.  I don't have the
specific Tomcat classloader hierarchy on hand, but I can tell you that a
change made outside the context of your app to a class loaded within
common/lib or server/lib requires a restart of Tomcat.

Re: [beginner question] reloading classes

2003-01-21 Thread Erik Price 
Is it possible that you need to re-compile the JSP file itself?  I don't 
know the mechanics of JSPs, but I know that whenever I include one JSP 
into another at compile time, if I change the "included" JSP, then I 
need to make sure that the "including" JSP is recompiled too.  Otherwise 
the "including" JSP still contains code from the original "included" JSP.

Ant won't update the "including" JSP if it hasn't been touched or 
changed, so if you're using ant, you need to touch the "including" JSP 
and then use ant to deploy your entire webapp.  Are you using ant?  It 
doesn't sound like you're very sure!  If not, ignore what i just said, 
and remove your deployed webapp, then redeploy the whole thing.  You 
should get the changes you are looking for.

Subject: [beginner question] reloading classes


Hi folks,

I'm new to Tomcat, but not as new to J2EE. I have a jsp, and I made a
change to a class that's being loaded into it as a bean, but I can't get
the page to use the new class and not the old one. 

My question, thus, is: when I make changes to a class, how do I get
Tomcat to reload the class?

Restarting Tomcat doesn't seem to do the trick. 

Searching the web, I found a doc that made mention that "touching" the
web.xml file would force the reloading of the class. I tried that and it
didn't work.

I also read somewhere that going to the application (where the JSPs are)
and typing ANT would force the recompile of everything. Still, the old
class is being used.

I'm storing the class in %catalina_home%/classes/PSQ/. I'm loading it
into the jsp by means of the following line of code:



I've made sure there are no other versions of PSQ.class in any other
places it might be used, for example, the WEB-INF/classes directory.

Thanks for whatever advice you can give, and I apologize if this
question has been asked many times before.

beginner question...

2002-09-19 Thread Padhu Vinirs 


Tomcat 4.0.4.

I am trying to use the Manager application to deploy and start a 
web-app. Have created the directory under CATALINA_HOME/webapps ( 
c:\tomcat40\webapps\ExamBuilder ). Even have a default web.xml under 
web-inf. Have put a one-liner index.html under my app directory.

I call manager app as follows:

http://localhost:8080/manager/install?path=/myapp&war=file:/tomcat40/webapps/ExamBuilder

Install is successful. I can do a list and it shows up.

Now I try:

http://localhost:8080/manager/start?path=/exambuilder

I get the following error:

FAIL - Application at context path /exambuilder could not be started


I checked the logs:

2002-09-19 09:16:43 Manager: start: Starting web application at 
'/exambuilder'
2002-09-19 09:16:43 StandardHost[localhost]: standardHost.start /exambuilder
2002-09-19 09:16:43 StandardContext[/exambuilder]: Error initializing 
resources: Document base 
C:\tomcat40\webapps\tomcat40\webapps\ExamBuilder does not exist or is 
not a readable directory

2002-09-19 09:16:43 StandardContext[/exambuilder]: Exception during 
cleanup after start failed
LifecycleException:  Container StandardContext[/exambuilder] has not 
been started
at org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.stop(ContainerBase.java:1147)
..


Why is the server looking at 
C:\tomcat40\webapps\tomcat40\webapps\ExamBuilder and not 
C:\tomcat40\webapps\ExamBuilder ?


Even during installation, I see an exception:

2002-09-19 09:16:26 Manager: install: Installing web application at 
'/exambuilder' from 'file:/tomcat40/webapps/ExamBuilder'
2002-09-19 09:16:26 StandardHost[localhost]: Installing web application

been started
at org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.stop(ContainerBase.java:1147)
at 
org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.stop(StandardContext.java:3495)


But if I try,

http://localhost:8080/manager/install?path=/myapp&war=file:/ExamBuilder

the install itself fails.



Any ideas appreciated.


Thanks

Hi,

I just installed Tomcat, and set the TOMCAT_HOME and JAVA_HOME environment
variables in profile, when I export them and try to run startup.sh it is no
go.  I get an error message that says there is no such directory 
/usr/java/jdk1.3/bin/bin/java .  If you take the /bin/java off the end you
have my path for the JAVA_HOME, but I do not get where the concatenation of
the last portion is coming from. 

If I do not export the variables and run startup.sh it guesses the
TOMCAT_HOME and runs fine.  Any suggestions?

Thank you all in advance.

Hey all, I sent a mail earlier about having trouble with configuring tomcat
to handle extension types other than .jsp. The problem is not exactly as I
thought. I have modified web.xml so that type .rt is now handled by tomcat.
My .rt file is just a jsp page with a different extension. I get the error
below whenever I access a .rt file in my context, whether the .rt file
exists or not! Which seems really weird to me...Thoughts?

2001-03-31 Thread Gabe Mahoney 

Hey all, I have figured out how to map files other than *.jsp to Tomcat. I
am trying to cause .rt (RealText files) to be created dynamically. They are
like xml files.
I created a .rt file that looks like this:


<%@ taglib uri="firstsong.tld" prefix="djmalloc" %>



When I load it I get the following error:
Error: 500
Location: /djmalloc/new.rt
Internal Servlet Error:

java.lang.InstantiationException: malloc.servlet.PageGetter

However, if I rename the exact same file with a .jsp extension, the page
appears correctly! Any thoughts?
