RE: Need help for case insensitive deployment

2004-09-29 Thread Willy Lin
Hi Wendy:

Thanks for your tip.  That was it.  I had to use Resources ...
instead of Resource   I also had to play with the directory structure
somewhat to get everything to work.  Here is the final context that I had
for my application.

Context path=/BBS docBase=BBS debug=0 privileged=true
Resources name =
type=org.apache.naming.resources.FileDirContext 
caseSensitive=false cached=true /
/Context  

Here is a few things that I learned.

1.  I can't have a docBase in Resources...  Tomcat is using the
docBase from Context.. not matter what I do.

2.  The docBase in Context... is using the appBase in Host.. as
its root directory.  In my case, it is ~tomcat/webapps/.  When the same
docBase is used by the Resources.., the root path is switched to
~tomcat/.  This caused some problem.  I had to create an empty directory
of ~tomcat/BBS in order for my application to deploy.  The actual files
for the application is still in ~tomcat/webapps/BBS.

3.  No longer able to use file resources from remote server.  In the
past I was able to set docBase to //host1/dir1.

It is quirky, but it is working now.  May be things are better in
Tomcat 5.0.  Thank you for your help.


Willy

 Thank you.  Now, I know I am not talking to myself.  You are right that
 there is no mention of case sensitivity at the context level in Tomcat
4.0,
 but it is mentioned at the resource level.
 http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/config/resources.html

Okay... the only thing I see is an extra 's'.  The docs say:

A Resources element MAY be nested inside a Context component.:

And you have:
 Context path=/Live docBase=\\host1\dir1 debug=0 privileged=true
 Resource name = type=org.apache.naming.resources.FileDirContext
 ...

Resource vs. Resource_s_?

Need help for case insensitive deployment

2004-09-28 Thread Willy Lin

Hi:

I need to server up some pages through Tomcat4 that are case
insensitive.  I have found an attribute in resources for case sensitivity,
but I could not get it to work.  Here is my context definition.

Context path=/Live docBase=\\host1\dir1 debug=0 privileged=true
Resource name = type=org.apache.naming.resources.FileDirContext
docBase=\\host1\dir1 
caseSensitive=false cached=true /
/Context

Can someone tell me what is wrong or point me to a sample
configuration for case insensitive deployment.  Thanks a lot.

We got it the first time.

http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/config/context.html

I don't see any reference to 'caseSensitive' there, do you?  It's on the
Tomcat 5.0 version of that page, however...

Time for some creative Filter action, then?
