Need help w. Tomcat

2003-06-03 Thread Steve Burrus
Hello all, I need help with not using the Tomcat server, but with
actually getting it set up correctly. Every single time that I try to
run it, it seems to be going good for a while, but then I always get a
Fatal Parse Error, and it indicates a problem in the
org.apache.commons.digester file with the web-app tag. Anyone have
any ideas as to what could be wrong?

It's complaining about a xml file, which does not tally with the dtd 
file it references. Did you by any chance change any web.xml files
in your webapps ? If so can we have a look ?

Re: Need help w. Tomcat

2003-06-03 Thread John Turner
This means that one of your web.xml files has invalid syntax, such as an 
element out of order, an element that shouldn't be there, or a missing tag.

The error is explanatory:  the problem is at line 312, column 11 in the 
file.  The error explains that:

SEVERE: Parse Error at line 312 column 11: The content of element type
web-app must match (icon?,display- 
name?,description?,distributable?,context-param*,filter*,filter- 
mapping*,listener*,servlet*,servlet-mapping*,session-config?,mime- 
mapping*,welcome-file-list?,error-page*,taglib*,resource-env-ref*,resource- 
ref*,security-constraint*,login-config?,security-role*,env-entry*,ejb-ref*,
ejb-local-ref*).

This means that within your web-app tag, the other elements must follow 
the exact order listed.  That is, servlet MUST come AFTER listener, not 
before.  I'm not saying that's your problem, I am describing how to read 
the error message so that you know what to look for.

Look on line 312, column 11, and figure out which tag from the list above 
is there, then look in the list and figure out if that tag is where it 
should be according to the list order.

Still need help w. Tomcat installation

2002-09-09 Thread STEVE BURRUS

 I STILL need some degree of help/assistance from someone in this newsgroup re. 
installing Tomcat!!! That is really a damned SAD thing to have to say at this late 
date now, you would think that I could have had this thing figured out by now! (Maybe 
I am just flat too DUMB to be a member of this newsgroup, I don't know!! :) )

 Anyway, I think that the crux of my problem is that I am editing the environment 
variables in System the wrong way!! Do I or do I not leave on the ; (semi-colon) after 
the particular path in the JAVA_HOME and TOMCAT_HOME, etc.? When I try to activate 
Tomcat in DOS, I always seem to get an error message saying that the JAVA_HOME 
variable is either missing or improperly set. Now, what's up with that anyway?

RE: Still need help w. Tomcat installation

2002-09-09 Thread Vincent . Gaboriau

To run Tomcat in DOS, you must specify the JAVA_HOME and TOMCAT_HOME
environment variables (system or user are not important in a first step). If
you have already done it, you must close your DOS window and open a new one
in order to the variables became enabled.

hopes it help you.

My JAVA_HOME on my hope set up is set to:

 c:\j2se14

bin is at C;\j2se14\bin.  Did you set PATH?  My PATH is set to:

 %SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;C:\Program 
Files\SecureCRT3.0;C:\j2se14\bin;%ANT_HOME%\bin;%JAVA_HOME%\bin

The relevant part for you, clearly, is %JAVA_HOME%\bin.

Are you using \ for Win or / for Linux/Unix?

Hope this helps.  Boy, you've been at it a while.  I admire your 
stick-to-it-ive-ness.

Re[2]: Still need help w. Tomcat installation

2002-09-09 Thread Jacob Kjome


Steve,

JAVA_HOME and CATALINA_HOME environment variables should *NOT* have a
semicolon in them, just the full path itself (with no spaces...which
means Tomcat should be installed in a path with no spaces like
c:\Tomcat-4.1.10).  The semicolon is used by PATH and CLASSPATH
environment variables to delimit each entry in the respective
variable.  You don't need to worry about that.

  Hello Micael, I appreciate the useful [-sic]advice which you offered to me re. 
setting the system variables for the Tomcat installation, however I really don't 
appreciate at all you inferring that I am DELIBERATELY trying to make it harder for 
both you and everyone else to help me just because I INADVERTENTLY left out the info.

Subject: Re: STILL need help w. Tomcat installation!!

 Do you know how to set your environmental variables on XP?  If not, go to 
 Start, Settings, Control Panel (in classic view), System, Advanced (tab),
 
 Environmental Variables (button), where you will see lots of neat stuff 
 that is fairly intuitive.  If you don't have the paths set, set them.  You
 
 will need, for example,
 
 ANT_HOMEc:\ant
 CATALINA_HOME c:\tomcat
 CLASSPATH c:\jdk;c:\tomcat;c:\junit or whatever
 JAVA_HOME c:\jdk
 PATH %JAVA_HOME%\bin;%ANT_HOME%\bin or whatever.
 
 If you want to create a new system variable, hit New.  If you
 want to 
 edit an old one, hit Edit.  Probably should avoid
 Delete for the time 
 being.  If you want to hard code these values in configurations of your 
 application, that is something different.  That is possible too.  But, I 
 think this is your easiest start.  I recommend you read something like 
 second chapter of Component Development for the Java Platform, by Stuart 
 Dabbs Halloway to get acquainted with what this all really is doing.
 
 There is a paucity of literature on the subject.
 
 Lesson One: Saying what platform you are working on helps people who
 really 
 would like to help you if you don't make it too hard to help.  Sorry if 
 that sounds too smug, but you seem not to be into helping us help 
 you.  Hope this did.  Have fun!

RE: STILL need help w. Tomcat installation!!

2002-08-29 Thread Andreas Mohrig

Steve,

excuse me, but what game are you playing exactly? I have been following your
posts and the answers to them for a while now, and although people are
generally very willing to help you, you are continuing to upset them. Why?

John Turner already suggested that you are making some queer kind of joke,
and I'm starting to think he's right. Maybe you should start to post
something useful or stop posting at all. And I would strongly suggest to
read http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html as is suggested in
the jakarta project's mailing list guidelines (which you should perhaps read
first: http://jakarta.apache.org/site/mail.html). Otherwise (I think) the
following things will happen in short order:

1. You will get more flames.
2. A lot of people on this list will filter your posts.
3. You will be banned from the list altogether.

But who am I to worry about that?

Andreas Mohrig

Re: STILL need help w. Tomcat installation!!

2002-08-28 Thread Michael Locasto

Steve,

I'm not sure the syntax of JAVA_HOME=j2sdk* is correct. I'm not sure what
effect that's going to have, if any. I don't like setting up env variables
like that globally b/c they're subject to change and an old one can get
you hours of frustration during a new install while you overlook it.

One quick and dirty way to make sure it is set properly is to put it in
your catalina.bat or tomcat.bat (whichever version of Tomcat you're
running)

one of my Windows Tomcat instances has this in tomcat.bat, right after the
header 'rem' statements

rem - Save Environment Variables That May Change ---

set _TOMCAT_HOME=%TOMCAT_HOME%
set _TOMCAT_INSTALL=%TOMCAT_INSTALL%
set _CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%

set TOMCAT_HOME=c:\opt\tomcat\jakarta-tomcat-3.3.1
set JAVA_HOME=c:\opt\java\sdk\jdk1.4.0

(or whatever is appropriate for your installation directory. It should be
the directory containing the bin\ jre\ lib\ include\ demo\)

Regards,
Michael

Steve is using Windows XP, and, if memory serves, he has downloaded one of
the 4.1.x versions, though that might be wrong.

These types of posts from him have been going on for quite some time
(months), I'm beginning to wonder if it isn't some sort of joke or prank.  I
would think someone posting for that long would be aware of the need to post
specifics like versions, error messages, etc., though I could easily be
wrong.

Hello STEVE,

I forget what OS you are using.  Can you state that?  If you are using
Windows NT/2000/XP and not Windows 95/98/Millenium I can help you.

Re[2]: STILL need help w. Tomcat installation!!

2002-08-28 Thread Jacob Kjome

Hello STEVE,

Ok, I am using Win2k, but it should be pretty much the same in WinXP.

1. right click on My Computer and choose properties
2. click on the Advanced tab
3. click on the Environment Variables... button

You will see an area to add user variables for the current user and an
area for setting system variables (for all users).

4. click the New... button under system variables.
5. Now add the following...
   Variable Name:  JAVA_HOME
  Variable Value:  c:\j2sdk1.4.0_01  (modify based on your java install)
  

You can follow the same steps for setting up the CATALINA_HOME
variable (Catalina is the other name for the Tomcat-4.x.x series).
Make sure you install Tomcat to a directory without spaces in the
path.  It is possible to work with spaces, but you will make your life
a lot easier by not having any spaces (eg... don't install under
c:\Program Files\...).

That should be it.  Let us know what other issues you run into...or if
you have some success!

Re: STILL need help w. Tomcat installation!!

2002-08-28 Thread micael

Do you know how to set your environmental variables on XP?  If not, go to 
Start, Settings, Control Panel (in classic view), System, Advanced (tab), 
Environmental Variables (button), where you will see lots of neat stuff 
that is fairly intuitive.  If you don't have the paths set, set them.  You 
will need, for example,

ANT_HOMEc:\ant
CATALINA_HOME c:\tomcat
CLASSPATH c:\jdk;c:\tomcat;c:\junit or whatever
JAVA_HOME c:\jdk
PATH %JAVA_HOME%\bin;%ANT_HOME%\bin or whatever.

If you want to create a new system variable, hit New.  If you want to 
edit an old one, hit Edit.  Probably should avoid Delete for the time 
being.  If you want to hard code these values in configurations of your 
application, that is something different.  That is possible too.  But, I 
think this is your easiest start.  I recommend you read something like 
second chapter of Component Development for the Java Platform, by Stuart 
Dabbs Halloway to get acquainted with what this all really is doing.

There is a paucity of literature on the subject.

Lesson One: Saying what platform you are working on helps people who really 
would like to help you if you don't make it too hard to help.  Sorry if 
that sounds too smug, but you seem not to be into helping us help 
you.  Hope this did.  Have fun!

I notice you have JAVA-HOME, the windows 4.0.4 I just downloaded uses
JAVA_HOME.  Is your email a typo?

If all else fails you might simply put the following into the catalina.bat
or setclasspath.bat files.

set JAVA_HOME=you java home directory

If you do it in the catalina.bat be sure to do before the call to
setclasspath.bat around line 54

I have not used the windows version but we do this for our HP-UX since we
use have multiple vendor servlet engines that use different sdk's.

Speaking of list volume...

Since 99% of the people here simply Reply to the e-mail, 99% of the
responses to your pleas should have the SAME SUBJECT as you used
originally (this e-mail is a perfect example).

If your e-mail client can not filter, sort, or whatever by e-mail subject,
then you simply need to get a better client. Clearly your current client is
not adequate to the tasks for which you wish to use it (for example,
managing a high volume mailing list).

As far as your request, you give NO details as to what is wrong, or how
you think your installation is not correct. No details whatsoever.

You don't say what things you've tried, what documents you refered to for
guidance in those attempts, and how they are not working.

The basic, binary install works just peachy out of the box. Extract it to
someplace appropriate, cd $WHERE_YOU_EXTRACTED_IT/bin, type 'startup.sh' or
'startup.bat', and boom, it works. Your JAVA_HOME environment variable must
be set.

It's that simple.

Finally, the point of a mailing list is not simply a forum to scream and
shout for help, its a community for sharing knowledge. Just like a USENET
newsgroup, the value in the mailing list is seeing how the problems that
people have are worked out ON the mailing list, thus when someone else has a
problem, the archives will hopefully have the answers.

There are few things more aggravating that seeing nothing but pleas but no
answers in a mailing list. That makes it essentially worthless, both for the
current readers and for future readers.

So, never expect private mail, particularly early on, from a public forum.
It's not fair to anyone.

But, why am I saying all of this, when you won't read it anyway.

Will Hartung

Re: STILL Need Help w. Tomcat Install

2002-08-21 Thread Jacob Kjome

Steve,

People have tried to help you. Case in point, you emailed me directly 
asking me the following

Now, would you please list, very methodically, all of the various steps 
involved in installing Tomcat?! Incidentally, I am trying/attempting to 
install version 4.0.4 without too damned many problems that I might encounter.

I responded with the following

First I'd have to know what OS you are installing on.  I won't be able to 
give out any Unix specific install info since I work on Windows.  I also 
need to know what difficulties you are having with your current 
install.  I'd love to help you, but I'm not going to run through every last 
detail of an install because that is what the existing docs and the 
archives of this list are for.  Once you give me some base info to work 
from, we can try to figure out the issue you are having.


I am still awaiting a response letting me know what you are having trouble 
with, specifically.  If you aren't going to bother writing back information 
that I need to help you out, I'm not going to go out of my way to help 
you.  I offered my help and you ignored the offer.  The only reason I can

Re: STILL Need Help w. Tomcat Install

2002-08-21 Thread micael

I made the same offer, with no response.

Steve,

People have tried to help you. Case in point, you emailed me directly 
asking me the following

Now, would you please list, very methodically, all of the various steps 
involved in installing Tomcat?! Incidentally, I am trying/attempting to 
install version 4.0.4 without too damned many problems that I might encounter.

I responded with the following

First I'd have to know what OS you are installing on.  I won't be able to 
give out any Unix specific install info since I work on Windows.  I also 
need to know what difficulties you are having with your current 
install.  I'd love to help you, but I'm not going to run through every 
last detail of an install because that is what the existing docs and the 
archives of this list are for.  Once you give me some base info to work 
from, we can try to figure out the issue you are having.


I am still awaiting a response letting me know what you are having trouble 
with, specifically.  If you aren't going to bother writing back 
information that I need to help you out, I'm not going to go out of my way 
to help you.  I offered my help and you ignored the offer.  The only 
reason I can see for this behavior is that you want the solution spoon-fed 
to you so others do the work for you and you just benefit from the advice 
without having to do much of any work.  Please don't flame back at me for

Make sure you have j2sdk installed

Right click on My Computer
Go to Properties
Click on Advanced Tab
Click on Environment Variables at the bottom
Under system variables, click New
Variable Name: JAVA_HOME
Variable Value: C:\j2sdk. Wherever your root sdk installation is

Note, if you already have a console window open, you will need to close
it and open a new one to get the updated system variable (I don't know
why, it just does).

In your mail, Steve, you wrote JAVA-HOME. Make sure you're using JAVA_HOME.


Note, if you already have a console window open, you will need to close
it and open a new one to get the updated system variable (I don't know
why, it just does).

In both Unix and Windows (at least NT, 2K and XP), each process carries 
it's own environment internally. A newly created process inherits its 
initial environment from the process that created it at the time it is 
crated. After that, changes in the system-wide or parent process's 
environment do not affect that of any already running process--only that 
process itself can change its environment.

Only development releases. This is made clear (and kept up-to-date) on the 
Tomcat home page http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/index.html.
